Many fans will undoubtedly still be feeling the high from Friday night’s dominating 4-1 victory by the U.S. Men’s National Team over Paraguay, in the first of eight World Cup games to be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. The USMNT next plays against Australia on Friday in Seattle.
The next World Cup match at SoFi Stadium will take place Monday, with Iran taking on New Zealand at 6 p.m.
