SUMMARY:FIFA World Cup 2026: Quarter-Final 2
DESCRIPTION:Quarter-Final 2 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 takes place on Friday 10 July 2026 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood\, California. The winners advance to Semi-Final 1 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington\, Texas on Tuesday 14 July\, joining the winners of Quarter-Final 1 played in Foxborough a day earlier. \nWhat is the FIFA World Cup Quarter-Final?\nThe quarter-finals reduce the World Cup field from eight teams to four. At the 2026 tournament\, the first with 48 teams\, sides arriving at this stage have already played six matches and taken part in the group stage\, Round of 32 and Round of 16. The four quarter-finals take place over consecutive days from 9 to 12 July 2026 at venues across the United States. \nEach match is single-elimination\, with extra time and a penalty shootout used to separate the teams if needed. Five substitutes are permitted during regulation plus an additional substitution in extra time\, and VAR\, goal-line technology and semi-automated offside detection are used throughout. \nWhen is the FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-Final?\nQuarter-Final 2 kicks off at 15:00 Pacific Time on Friday 10 July 2026\, which is 18:00 Eastern Time\, 23:00 BST\, 00:00 on Saturday 11 July CEST\, and 08:00 in Tokyo. Extra time is played if scores are level after 90 minutes\, followed by a shootout if still level. \nWhere is the FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-Final?\nThe match is being played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood\, a suburb of Los Angeles\, California. SoFi opened in September 2020 at a cost of around 5 billion dollars and is the most expensive sports venue ever built. It is the home of the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers and hosted Super Bowl LVI in February 2022\, won by the Rams. It will also host the 2028 Summer Olympics opening and closing ceremonies. Standard capacity is around 70\,000\, expandable to over 100\,000\, and for the World Cup the venue operates at approximately 70\,000 with a natural grass pitch installed. \nSoFi is known for its translucent canopy roof\, the 120 million-dollar 4K “Infinity Screen” hanging from the centre of the stadium\, and the lagoon feature outside. It is hosting eight matches at the 2026 World Cup\, with group-stage games\, a Round of 32 match\, a Round of 16 match and this quarter-final. Los Angeles International Airport is around ten minutes from the stadium by road. \nKey Contenders\nThe two teams meeting in Inglewood will be confirmed by the Round of 16 matches earlier in July. Before those are set\, the plausible contenders include reigning world champions Argentina\, 2022 runners-up France\, five-time champions Brazil\, European champions Spain\, 2014 champions Germany\, and England\, semi-finalists in 2018. Portugal\, Netherlands\, Belgium and Croatia are also capable of reaching the quarter-finals. Host nations the United States\, Mexico and Canada each benefit from home advantage and fan support in the venues. \nThe 2022 quarter-finalists were Argentina\, France\, Croatia\, Netherlands\, Portugal\, Morocco\, Brazil and England.

Brazil beat Poland 5-2 at the Maracana in 1950 in front of the largest quarter-final crowd in history\, and in 1970 the Estadio Azteca saw Italy dispatch Mexico 4-1. \nPenalty shootouts have decided more recent quarter-finals: Netherlands beat Costa Rica in 2014 after introducing goalkeeper Tim Krul as a shootout substitute\, Russia beat Spain in 2018\, and Argentina beat Netherlands in Qatar in 2022 after blowing a two-goal lead.
