Bosnia in the round of 32 already? I swear this bracket stuff changes every day.
So they’re playing Bosnia July 1 at Levi’s, cool cool. But wait, didn’t the US already play Turkey? Feels like I missed a game lol.
Levi’s Stadium is Santa Clara right, not Inglewood? The article says Inglewood too so I’m confused. Also how is Bosnia already “locked in” if there’s still a Turkey match??
If they beat Bosnia on July 1 then they just magically go to Seattle Monday right? I mean, sure, knockout schedule sounds official but I feel like something will get moved because of travel or the refs or whatever. MetLife better be ready for the big game though.
