Mexico vs. Saudi Arabia: How to watch, TV channel, live stream
Mexico will face Saudi Arabia in a Gold Cup quarterfinal on Saturday night in Glendale, Ariz. Javier Aguirre's side finished first in Group A, defeating Dominican Republic 3-2 and Suriname 2-0 before drawing 0-0 against Costa Rica to close out group play. Mexico has been especially effective from dead-ball situations, with four of its five goals coming from set pieces. Center back César Montes has been the team's unlikely leading scorer with three goals. The defending champions will have to do without Luis Chávez for the rest of the tournament, with the midfielder suffering a torn ACL in training this week. Watch Mexico vs. Saudi Arabia on Prime Video Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, was the one guest team of the 16 in this tournament, and advanced from Group D by finishing second with a 1-1-1 record. Hervé Renard's side has kept things tight in its three matches so far, with just two goals scored and two conceded. This game will be a rematch of a meeting at the 2022 World Cup, when Mexico won 2-1 in the final game of the group stage. Both teams ended up being eliminated, despite Saudi Arabia starting the tournament with a win over eventual champion Argentina. The winner of this match will face the winner between Panama and Honduras in the semifinal at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif on Wednesday. Here is everything you need to know ahead of the game. How to watch Mexico vs. Saudi Arabia Mexico vs. Saudi Arabia prediction Mexico is the tournament favorite and defending champion, but Saudi Arabia has shown the ability to frustrate opponents in this Gold Cup.

More than 1 million empty seats for Club World Cup group stage. Knockout rounds up next.
Total announced attendance was 1.67 million from 2.95 million capacity, an average of 34,746. Just 44.9 percent was filled for five matches at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., the site of next year's World Cup final, and 50 percent at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif., where the 1994 championship game was played. Among other 2026 sites, 81.8 percent of capacity was filled in Miami Gardens, Fla., 61.6 percent in Philadelphia, 52 percent in Seattle, and 44.3 percent in Atlanta. Advertisement FIFA spokesman Bryan Swanson did not respond to a request for FIFA President Gianni Infantino to discuss the tournament and attendance. FIFA issued a statement that said: 'The appetite of the tournament speaks for itself: fans from 168 countries have already purchased tickets . . . a clear sign of global anticipation and reach.' The 12 games televised with English commentary on TNT, TBS, and truTV averaged 360,000 viewers through Monday, including 409,000 for seven matches on nights and weekends. Advertisement The second round opens Saturday with an all-Brazilian matchup of Palmeiras and Botafogo, followed by Chelsea-Benfica later in the day. Sunday starts with the high-profile meeting of Inter Miami and Lionel Messi against European champion Paris Saint-Germain and is followed by Bayern Munich-Flamengo. Inter Milan-Fluminese and Manchester City-Al Hilal are on Monday, and Real Madrid-Juventus and Borussia Dortmund-Monterrey on Tuesday. European teams won 16 of the 17 previous editions of an eight-team Club World Cup, the lone exception a 2012 victory by Brazil's Corinthians over Chelsea. Manchester City is the only team that went 3-0 in the group stage. ⋅ Five of the 12 stadiums being used are sites for next year's World Cup, which will have 104 matches instead of 64 and many more games lacking prestigious teams and players. There were five weather delays in the Club World Cup group stage and temperatures at times rose well over 90 degrees, a sign that climate change could impact next year's World Cup. However, four of the stadiums for next year's tournament have roofs and climate control. ⋅ Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe, among soccer's top stars, didn't play a minute of the group stage, 'I don't want to be optimistic and get ahead of myself, but we need him because he's a top player, one of the best in the world. We hope he's back soon,' Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso said Thursday. ⋅ Messi, the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner who turned 38 on Tuesday, has helped Miami reach the knockout phase with moments of brilliance. He hit the goal frame twice in the opening draw against Al Ahly, then scored his 68th free kick goal for club and country in the 2-1 win over Porto. Advertisement Next up is the game against PSG, Messi's team from 2021-23. ⋅ All four entrants from Brazil have advanced to the round of 16, with Botafogo beating PSG, 1-0, in a matchup of current European and South American champions. Flamengo, Palmeiras, and Fluminense are also through to the next stage.

Vancouver Whitecaps look to snap two-game skid against Los Angeles FC
VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Whitecaps are in unfamiliar territory — looking to snap a losing skid. A 5-3 defeat to expansion side San Diego FC on Wednesday marked Vancouver's second loss in a row. It's the first time this season the team has dropped back-to-back games. The result saw the Whitecaps (10-3-5) slip to the No. 2 spot in Major League Soccer's Western Conference. They'll strive to reclaim first place Sunday when they visit Los Angeles FC (7-4-5). Even after a pair of losses, there's no panic among the 'Caps, said head coach Jesper Sorensen. 'It's about believing in what we should be good at and what we should be doing well,' he said. 'We're in a very good position. We've earned our position. So we earned the right to step aside a couple of times. But we, of course, have to get back into winning things as well. But it's a difficult position.' There are lessons to be taken from Wednesday's loss, he added, including that the team needs to play with courage and without hesitation. 'Of course we got punished pretty hard,' the coach said. 'That's what it is. But also that we shouldn't wait to start taking initiative — we should take it right away.' LAFC is a team Vancouver knows well — Sunday's matchup will mark the 14th time the two sides have clashed since April 2023. The last bout came May 11 at B.C. Place, where the 'Caps fell behind early before rallying to earn a 2-2 draw. The Whitecaps need to play with more intensity to collect all three points this time out, said defender Mathias Laborda. 'We have to step forward and do a good game,' he said. With elite players — including striker Denis Bouanga — on the roster, L.A. presents a number of offensive threats, Laborda added. 'They're a really good team. They have really good players with quality. So we expect a really good game,' he said. L.A. is coming off a tough run at the FIFA Club World Cup where they finished at the bottom of their group with two losses and a draw, but is unbeaten in the club's last nine MLS games (4-5-0). The club is one of the better teams Vancouver has faced this season, Sorensen said, and Sunday's contest will be a difficult one. 'We know that they have some players we have to give special attention to. We know they have some things in their play that they're very good at and we have to take care of,' the coach said. 'But we also know we're a pretty good team ourselves and we have to also believe and trust in what we are doing. And then believe that that's how we're going to win the game.' VANCOUVER WHITECAPS (10-3-5) AT LAFC (7-4-5) Sunday, BMO Stadium GOODBYE GIROUD: Olivier Giroud is set to play his final game for LAFC on Sunday. The club announced Friday that is has 'mutually parted ways' with the famed French striker. Giroud signed with L.A. in May 2024, but has struggled in MLS, putting up five goals in 37 games across all competitions. HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE?: LAFC has been solid at BMO Stadium this year, posting a 6-1-1 record in MLS play. The Whitecaps have been one of the league's best road teams, though, and are 4-1-3 away from B.C. Place. LOCKED DOWN: Despite giving up five goals on Wednesday, Vancouver has conceded the fewest goals in the Western Conference (19) and is tied with San Diego for the best goal differential (+15) in the West. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 27, 2025.
