Mỹ tiến gần hơn đến vòng loại trực tiếp World Cup với chiến thắng trước Australia.

Co-hosts USA moved closer to the World Cup knockout stages with a 2-0 victory over Australia in Group D. Having beaten Paraguay 4-1 in their opening game in Los Angeles, Mauricio Pochettino's side produced another commanding display in Seattle to continue their strong start to the tournament and put them on the brink of reaching the round of 32.

Folarin Balogun, scorer of two goals against Paraguay, forced the opener when Australia defender Cameron Burgess turned the striker's cut-back into his own net in the 11th minute.
