Belgium emphatically ended the United States' World Cup journey with a 4-1 win against the co-hosts at Seattle Stadium on July 6, 2026. The match saw Belgium's Charles De Ketelaere score the team's second goal, contributing to the commanding victory that advanced Belgium to the quarter-finals.

The game was notably overshadowed by FIFA's decision to allow US forward Folarin Balogun to play despite a red card in a previous match. However, Balogun was unable to influence the outcome as Belgium dominated the match.

This result marks the end of the United States' campaign in the tournament, while Belgium moves forward in the competition.
