Recaps

Switzerland Top Group B with Victory Over Canada

Much to the chagrin of the crowd in Vancouver, it was Switzerland who topped Group B on Wednesday, beating Canada 2-1.

Goals from Rubén Vargas and Johan Manzambi were enough to secure the Swiss victory.

Promise David pulled one back in the 76th minute, but the Canadians couldn't find an equalizer.

The Swiss now await their opponents, which will be a third-place finisher. Canada will face the second-place finisher from Group A, which is trending toward being South Korea.

Bosnia and Herzegovina Likely Secures Knockout Phase Berth

Bosnia and Herzegovina came into Wednesday needing a win to give themselves a chance to move on to the knockout phase as a third-place finisher. They got the result needed, beating Qatar 3-1 on goals from Kerim Alajbegovic and Ermin Mahmic (alongside Mahmoud Abunada's own goal).

Hassan Al-Haydos scored Qatar's lone goal in the match.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is now extremely likely to face the United States in the Round of 32, though it isn't technically official just yet.

The USMNT has only faced Bosnia and Herzegovina three times, winning twice and drawing once.
