Six added minutes Bosnia look fairly comfortable...

Denied Sead Kolašinac recovers well as Almoez Ali threatens to slip in a team-mate.

Goal in Seattle! Another deflected goal as Ermin Mahmić converts following a corner. Will it be enough for Bosnia to advance?

Surely the winner! Ermin Mahmić with a deflected goal, but will it be enough for Bosnia and Herzegovina?

⚽ 80' Ermin Mahmić (3-1)

Over in BC Canada have pulled a goal back. It's 2-1 against Switzerland, who are heading through in first place.

All or nothing Qatar are throwing everything at this. They need two goals to turn things around and potentially go through in third.

Drained Bosnia have really struggled in the heat since the restart. Even so, 40-year-old Edin Džeko is not happy to be coming off.

Crocked Hassan Al-Haydos goes off injured, with Qatar still in the ascendancy following his goal.

Qatar are really going for it Meanwhile, Switzerland have taken the lead against Canada in Vancouver.

Post! The woodwork denies Pedro Miguel the equaliser on the stroke of half time. Bosnia have been all over the place since conceding...

Qatar pull one back! Not good news for Bosnia's goal difference, but a terrific response from the Gulf nation as captain Hassan Al-Haydos sweeps in Edmilson Junior's cut-back from close range.

⚽ 42' Hassan Al-Haydos (2-1)

Woodwork! Edin Džeko runs clear of the Qatar defence, but his shot comes back off the upright.

As things stand Qatar are heading out, unless they can turn this around. There's been little to suggest they will...

⚽ 29' Kerim Alajbegović (1-0)

Roof of the net Ivan Bašić is not far away as he drives one just over from 30 yards.

Elsewhere It's still goalless between Canada and Switzerland in the group's other game. As things stand, they're going through as the top two.

Chance! Ivan Šunjić is denied by another flying save from Abunada. Bosnia mean business.

Bosnia straight on the attack Ermedin Demirović with an early warning shot from outside the area, forcing Mahmud Abunada into a strong diving save.

Welcome! Follow all of the action as Bosnia and Herzegovina take on Qatar in the final game of Group B of the FIFA World Cup 2026, kicking off at 8pm CEST in Seattle.

Another chance! Shaffelburg scampers forward down the left and crosses into the middle. Johnston arrives at the back post to head goalwards but it's too close to Kobel, who makes the save.

Next one! Another long throw, another chance! This time it falls to Promise David, whose glancing header sends Kobel scrambling to his left to make the save!

Chance for Canada! A long throw from the left goes all the way to the back post, where Cornelius narrowly misses the target with his header!

Added time We're in the first of six additional minutes.

Switzerland holding on The two strikers, Manzambi and Embolo, have gone off as the Swiss look to see this result to the final whistle. Canada are pushing hard for an equaliser at the moment, though.

Permutations If the score stays the same, Switzerland go through to the round of 32 as Group B winners. However, if Canada equalise, they will finish top due to superior goal difference.

Almost the equaliser! Eustaquio bends an inviting free-kick from the right into the box but Cornelius header flies just wide!

⚽ 76' Promise David (2-1)

Back under way Both teams have made changes for the closing stages.

Hydration break Time to get some water on board!

Applying pressure The tournament co-hosts are building momentum, as they did towards the end of the first half, and are pinning Switzerland back inside their own penalty box.

Chance for Canada! Miller does brilliantly to tear into space down the left. He crosses low into the box and finds David, whose first touch is superb to set him up for a shot. Elvedi launches himself in front of the ball, however, and makes a brilliant block.

Manzambi down The youngster remains on the ground after a tussle with Laryea and it looks like he needs treatment.

Triple change Canada react to that goal by bringing on three new players in a bid to show a reaction.

⚽ 57' Johan Manzambi (2-0)

Half chance for Larin Ahmed pings a cross into the middle from the left. Larin rises above Akanji but can't quite connect with the ball.

Canada disjointed Canada can't seem to get a foothold in the game right now, and are having difficulty putting even just a couple of passes together.

Scoring habit Switzerland have scored five of their six goals at this World Cup in the second halves of their games.

Almost in again Xhaka nudges an outside-of-the-foot pass into the box for Manzambi, who is bundled over. The Freiburg man appeals fro a penalty but the referee waves for play to continue.

⚽ 46' Rubén Vargas (1-0)

And we're off! The second half is under way!

Bosnia and Herzegovina vs Qatar update! The other Group B match being played concurrently in Seattle is between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Qatar. The European side have taken a 2-0 lead, lifting them to four points. Neither Switzerland nor Canada need to worry just yet, but if Bosnia score a few more goals then it could make things interesting in terms of goal difference later on.

Opening for Ahmed! A lovely attack from Canada as they work the ball from right to left. Larin slides it into Ahmed, but his low strike lacks power and precision, and is blocked for a corner.

Over from Johnston A loose ball falls kindly for Johnston, but his first-time strike from 25 yards out goes well over.

Well over Xhaka has a go but the ball is always rising and goes well over the target.

Prime location Laryea runs into Embolo and gives a free-kick away around 30 yards from goal, slightly left of centre. It's the perfect position for a Xhaka special...

Canada much more aggressive Canada coach Jesse Marsch has been an animated figure on the touchline. He appears to have transmitted some of that energy to his players during the hydration break, as they are much bolder and more aggressive now, not allowing Switzerland as much time on the ball.

Treatment break Vargas and Johnston are on the ground after a collision but they both seem to be ok to continue.

Here we go again The ball is back in play in Vancouver.

First break Time for some tactical tweaks with the first hydration break of the game.

Next chance for Switzerland Embolo darts into the box and has space to get a shot away, but it's on his weaker left foot and he doesn't make a clean connection. It's a comfortable save in the end for Crépeau.

No penalty Manzambi tears forward on the break and latches on to a long ball. He gets into the box and goes to ground under pressure from Laryea, but the referee signals straight away that it's not enough for a penalty.

Double chance! A through-ball from Rodriguez dissects the Canada defence, leaving Embolo one-on-one with the goalkeeper. His shot is well saved though, and Manzambi's follow-up on the rebound is also blocked.

High press Canada are pushing up high into the Switzerland half when out of possession, denying them the chance to build out from the back and forcing them to punt long balls forward.

Dangerous location Jaquez commits a foul near the corner flag on the Switzerland right, giving Canada an opportunity to swing in a cross. The delivery is poor though, and the Europeans clear it.

Peeeeep! Canada get the ball rolling in Vancouver.

Pre-match formalities The players are lined up on the pitch, ready for national anthems and handshakes.

Switzerland subs Keller, Mvogo, Amenda, Cömert, Widmer, Rieder, Aebischer, Fassnacht, Jashari, Zakaria, Itten, Amdouni, Okafor, Ndoye

Constant pressure England are pushing for a winner here. Ghana can't get out of their own half, and barely their own box.

Off the line! Guehi's header following a corner is cleared off the line at the back post!

Last throw of the dice England make their final substitution as Rashford comes on for Madueke, who had a decent game.

Rarity in store? England have only failed to score once in their last 25 internationals, a 1-0 defeat by Japan in March this year.

Chance for Ghana! Eze loses the ball cheaply down the England left and Ghana break forward. Senaya gets in behind the defence and goes down under pressure from Konsa inside the box, but he still gets a shot away while on the ground. It's going towards goal but hits his own player - Semenyo - before England clear.

Scrappy The game has been interrupted in the last few minutes by lots of niggly fouls.

More changes Tuchel makes two more substitutions, freshening up the attack with Eze and Rogers.

Break in play The second and final hydration break is upon us.

Over from Saka! Mudueke, now on the left wing after Saka's introduction, takes on his man and gets to the byline. His cross to the back post finds Saka, but he heads over.

It opens up for Kane! Ghana try to play the ball out from the back but lose possession cheaply. It comes to Kane just outside the box, but his left-footed strike lacks both the power and precision to beat the goalkeeper.

Subs coming Both teams are preparing to make some changes.

Over from Madueke Rice's initial delivery is cleared but England keep possession and work it via Gordon to Madueke, whose curling effort goes high and wide of the target.

Another free-kick Kane is fouled this time, left of centre and 25 yards from goal...

Free-kick to England Williams brings down Gordon wide on the left and England have a set piece in a dangerous position. Rice whips it to the back posts and finds Anderson, but his powerful header is blocked.

Bolder approach Having sat back for most of the first half, Ghana are trying things a bit more now and are forcing England to defend more.

Chance for Ghana! Senaya gets in behind Gordon and beats him to a long, diagonal pass. He's got a clear sight of goal but, under pressure from Spence, he can't hit the target.

Superb from Bellingham Semenyo finds space for seemingly the first time all game. He's tracked by Bellingham though, and the former Dortmund man dispossesses him with a brilliant sliding tackle.

Same rhythm The second half has slipped into the same pattern as the first, with England dominating the ball but struggling to make headway against a well-drilled Ghana side.

Underway once more Ghana get the second half up and running.

First glimpse for Kane A quick attack from England culminates in Rice sliding a pass into Kane. He shifts his feet well and gets a shot away, but once again there are too many Ghana players in the way, and it goes out for a corner.

Added time There will be six additional minutes.

First corner Ayew and Semenyo do well down the Ghana left in their first period of sustained pressure. They win a corner, but it's headed clear.

First booking Rice is shown the first yellow card of the game for arriving late into a tackle.

More good work from Madueke He takes on his marker down the right, gets to the byline and dinks a right-footed cross to the back post. Rice arrives and wins the header, but can only send his effort over the bar.

Set piece needed? England have been camped out in Ghana's half for the majority of the game, but there's so little space to work in and no room for runs in behind. Perhaps a free-kick or corner might be the way for the breakthrough to come.

Rare foray forward Ghana win a free-kick wide on the left, close to the halfway line. They send plenty of bodies forward in a bid to crowd the box, but Guehi wins the header and is fouled in the process.

And we're back The ball is rolling once more.

Hydration break Three minutes for the players to take on some fluids and receive tactical tweaks from their coaches.

Treatment James and Ayew are both on the field receiving medical treatment after a clash of heads.

And again! Spence runs into space down the left and cuts it back to Rice, but his shot is blocked.

More good work from Rice The midfielder wins the ball well on the left and cuts it back for Gordon. He shifts it on to Anderson, whose shot is blocked.

Over from Rice Gordon wins a free-kick in a central position, around 25 yards from goal. James nudges it to Rice, whose rasping drive arrows just over the bar.

Almost! Madueke slides a ball inside to James, darting into the Ghana box down the right. He squares it into the middle, but can only find a Ghana foot.

Neat but no end product A driving run forward from Rice and some neat one-touch passing around the edge of the box involving Kane and Bellingham, but Ghana get enough bodies back to crowd them out.

Easily cleared Rice's delivery is poor and doesn't make it past the first defender, who heads the ball clear.

Promising position Madueke is fouled on the right, a little way outside the box. It's prime location for Rice to swing one in...

Sitting back Despite the mild temperatures, Ghana aren't pressing high here. Instead, they're sitting back deep inside their own half and inviting England to break them down.

Here we go! England get the ball rolling!

England subs Henderson, Trafford, O'Reilly, Stones, Chalobah, Burn, Quansah, Henderson, Mainoo, Rogers, Eze, Saka, Rashford, Watkins, Toney

Ghana subs Zigi, Anang, Seidu, Mumin, Rahman, Oppong, Luckassen, Owusu, Boakye, Fatawu, Thomas-Asante, Baah, Sulemana, Nuamah, Adu

Wide! Rafael Leão crosses into the penalty area for Ronaldo, but he's at full stretch and can't direct the ball on target.

Close! Francisco Trincão is not far away from adding a sixth Portugal goal as he steers a first-time effort just beyond the far post. Superb build-up play from Ronaldo and Mendes to create that.

Five added minutes Still time for Ronaldo to complete his hat-trick...

It's five! Portugal attack up the right-hand side with Semedo. His low cross is just behind Ronaldo, but perfect for Rafael Leão, who sweeps an emphatic first-time finish into the top corner.

⚽ 87' Rafael Leão (5-0)

Fierce hit! Fernandes from downtown, but Nematov is equal to it. The loose ball was just out of Ronaldo's reach...

Attack, attack, attack There's a really open feel to the game in the closing stages, with Portugal out to extend their lead and Uzbekistan chasing a morale-boosting consolation.

Half chance! Ronaldo is dispossessed in the final third as Uzbekistan counter. It's quickly worked up to Shomurodov, who strikes the ball cleanly from 18 yards, but can't keep his shot down.

Hat-trick hunting Ronaldo closes down the Uzbekistan goalkeeper, who's slow to clear. The Portugal captain is first to the loose ball and turns to shoot goalwards, but Nematov recovers, diving to his right to push the shot to safety.

Nearly! Portugal are straight back on the attack with Nuno Mendes. He charges up the left-hand side and cuts a ball back for Ronaldo, whose goal-bound shot is blocked.

Hydration break Portugal are cruising to victory in Houston, but they won't want to let up. Goal difference could be key in Group K, especially if Colombia beat Congo DR later today.

In the book Uzbekistan play it out from the back and look to progress the ball down the right, but Veiga bodychecks Ganiev to thwart a promising attack, earning the defender a booking.

Attacking change Another change for Portugal as Martínez aims to rest players ahead of Matchday 3: João Félix makes way for Francisco Trincão.

Clear daylight Fernandes' corner towards the near post finds a way through to Khusanov, who scores an own goal after having no time to react.

Off the training ground Wow! Almost a fourth for Portugal and what a goal that would have been. Ronaldo shapes up to take a trademark free-kick but jogs past the ball, before Fernandes clips the ball over the wall and into his path - Nematov is on hand to make a superb stop.

Wide! Shukurov cuts onto his left foot before unleashing a shot low towards Costa's goal, which is deflected behind for a corner that is played short before Ronaldo heads the ball clear.

Costa tested Fayzullaev, who scored Uzbekistan's goal against Colombia, forces Portugal's custodian into a comfortable save. The chance came after the AFC representatives almost played themselves into trouble at the opposite end.

From distance! João Félix unleashes an effort from around 30-yards, and it sails narrowly over Uzbekistan's crossbar. Portugal are starting the second half like they did the first - with intent.

We're back under way! Portugal get the ball rolling again, and there's changes for both nations. Nélson Semedo and Francisco Conceição replace João Cancelo and Pedro Neto in like-for-like changes. For Uzbekistan, Mozgovoy and Alijonov enter the fray.

Almost a fourth! Cancelo plays in another delicious cross into the path of Ronaldo, who lifts the ball over the onrushing Nematov but Khusanov is on hand to clear the ball off the line.

Ending with intent Portugal are looking to end the half strongly, but Uzbekistan are able to clear their crosses.

Into added time The fourth official has signalled six additional minutes.

⚽ 39' Cristiano Ronaldo (3-0)

In search of a third Pedro Neto continues to be lively down Portugal's right, ghosting past his marker, but this time his cross is cleared.

Goal ruled out Ganiev strikes the ball beautifully into the top corner past Diogo Costa from range but it's ruled out for a foul on Cancelo in the build-up after Uzbekistan pressed Portugal high up the pitch to force a defensive error.

A way back in? Since the hydration break, Uzbekistan have seen more possession of the ball but so far, it's in front of Portugal's defensive block.

In control Portugal are enjoying themselves out there. Fernandes and Mendes link up well down the left, which leads to Uzbekistan losing their cool and conceding a free-kick on the edge of the penalty area. Fernandes clips another ball in, but Uzbekistan are able to clear the danger.

Looking for a response Portugal are caught sleeping which allows Nasrullaev to try his luck from the left, but Diogo Costa is alert to the situation to deny the attacker.

⚽ 17' Nuno Mendes (2-0)

Free-kick in a dangerous position Pedro Neto has been lively down Portugal's right, and now he's won a free-kick on the edge of the box after being brought down by Xamrobekov. Ronaldo lines up to take it...

⚽ 6' Cristiano Ronaldo (1-0)

Millimetres away! Mendes whips in a delightful cross from the left with pace into the path of Ronaldo but the Portugal captain, at full stretch, can't connect with the ball.

Early chance! The ball is played into João Neves, who turns on a dime before laying the ball off for Fernandes. The Manchester United man forces Nematov into an early save, but the resulting corner doesn't amount to anything.

Playing with intent Already Portugal are looking to assert their dominance. Every outfield player is in Uzbekistan's half, but their opponents are quick to instigate the press.

Off we go! Uzbekistan get the ball rolling!

Kick-off approaching The teams are out, the national anthems are being played and we're moments from a ball being kicked in Houston, USA.

Hat-trick goes begging Mbappé tries to power a finish into the near top corner of the net from the left-hand side of the box, but sees his finish go over the bar before being replaced.

Misplaced Cherki has both Doué and Mbappé racing away ahead of him on the counter, but only manages to find the feet of the Iraq 'keeper with his pass.

Waved away Mbappé is blocked inside the box and hits the deck, but his penalty claims are dismissed by the referee.

Poked just wide! Al-Hamadi stretches to get on the end of an in-swinging Farji cross, but his finish rolls narrowly wide of the far post.

⚽ 66' Ousmane Dembélé (3-0)

Basil saves from Dembélé He sweeps the ball toward the far side of goal from the right-hand side of the box, forcing Basil into a good save.

Off the bar! Mbappé feeds Olise inside the area, who lofts the ball first time over the 'keeper, but onto the crossbar rather than into the net.

⚽ 54' Kylian Mbappé (2-0)

Bright start Iraq have started well, moving the ball forward quickly and putting France on the back foot.

We're finally back! The long awaited second half has begun.

The players are back out! After a long wait, the players are back out and warming up.

Wait goes on While things are looking positive at the moment, it'll be seven minutes until the next announcement over the next steps in Philadelphia.

Restart on the horizon After a long stoppage, the weather appears to have improved and it looks like the game will continue once the players have warmed up again.

Crucial tackle Mbappé looks to have squeezed through the Iraq defence and is shaping to shoot, but Ali sticks out a leg to deny him at the vital moment.

Well worked Al-Hamadi heads wide from Doski's cross after a neat passing sequence.

Early change Iraq are forced into an early switch with Hussein picking up an injury.

Hydration break Iraq can catch their breath following a difficult first 23 minutes.

Constant pressure Iraq are struggling to get out of their half as France look to build on their lead.

⚽ 14' Kylian Mbappé (1-0)

Building momentum Mbappé volleys wide from the right side of the box as France turn up the heat.

Settling in Iraq have passed the ball well when given the chance and appear unfazed by the opponents in front of them.

Sight of goal Koné volleys goalward from just outside the area, which Mbappé tries to poke on target with an outstretched leg but can't reach, and he has to watch the ball bounce well wide of goal.

The ball is rolling! Iraq get tonight's game underway.

Messi strikes the hammer blow! Argentina confirm all three points will be headed their way right at the death. A counter attack puts Álvarez one-on-one with Schlager, who denies him but sees the rebound fall to Messi, who sees his first attempt at goal blocked before firing past a crowd of Austria defenders to double the lead.

⚽ 90+5' Lionel Messi (2-0)

Wimmer wide! Danso heads back across the box from a Sabitzer free-kick, where Wimmer then glances his header wide of the far post.

No luck Austria win another corner, but Sabitzer's delivery is headed clear.

Flashed wide! Messi's out-swinging corner meets the head of González, who guides his header just past the far post.

Headed over A lofted cross from Sabitzer to the back post finds Gregoritsch, but he can't test the 'keeper with his attempt, which goes comfortably over.

Martínez punches clear Sabitzer fires the free-kick toward goal, forcing the 'keeper into a good save.

Good position Austria have a free-kick on the left-hand edge of the box.

Offside Argentina win the ball back in midfield and Fernandez immediately plays in Messi, who is tackled by Seiwald as he closes in on goal. The Argentina captain was offside though, and Austria can reset.

We're back! The second half is underway.

In control Argentina are taking the sting out of the game with the break on the horizon.

Seven added minutes There'll be plenty of time for more drama at the end of this half.

Wasted Austria win a free-kick, which Alaba sends straight out for a goal-kick.

We're back Play has resumed.

Hydration break The first break brings to a halt an exciting opening to this game.

Schlager saves! Messi has a clear sight of goal but he's tackled at the final moment by Alaba, who inadvertently pokes the ball toward his own goal which Schlager sticks out a leg to save.

Early opportunity Argentina have the chance to take the lead, with the referee deciding it was a penalty.

Under review The referee will review whether Martínez was fouled in the aforementioned incident, with a penalty for Argentina on the cards.

First chance! A defence splitting pass puts Martínez in behind and gives him a clear sight of goal. Just as he's about to pull the trigger, Seiwald and Posch converge to snuff out the opportunity.
