Today’s FIFA World Cup 2026 match schedule.
Here are the six Thursday, June 25 group-stage matches to keep on your radar, with compact global kickoff cards for easier mobile reading. Note: later matches roll into Friday, June 26 for UK and Central Europe viewers, while the final Group D window also lands on June 26 in UTC.
Quick world-time note: if you are watching from the UK or Central Europe, the Group F and Group D windows technically land on Friday, June 26. For UTC viewers, the late Group D matches also flip into June 26, so plan the snacks, alarms and caffeine accordingly.
The opening window belongs to Group E, with Ecuador vs. Germany in New York/New Jersey and Curaçao vs. Ivory Coast in Philadelphia. Two matches, one group, and everyone watching the scoreboard at the same time — that is the exact type of tournament chaos the final group window was built for.
Then comes the Group F spotlight. Japan vs. Sweden hits Dallas while Tunisia vs. Netherlands takes over Kansas City, giving the evening window two very different matchups with one shared assignment: keep the group-stage drama moving.
The night closes with Group D, and American viewers get the marquee home-stage matchup: United States vs. Türkiye at Los Angeles Stadium. At the same time, Paraguay vs. Australia kicks off in Santa Clara, keeping the West Coast busy until the final whistle.
So yes, today is another full World Cup remote-control workout for viewers around the globe. Start in New York/New Jersey and Philadelphia, move through Dallas and Kansas City, then close the night in Los Angeles and the Bay Area — or wake up overseas and make it a Friday morning football ritual.
