From 01:00

Coverage of the round-of-32 match at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium in Santa Clara, USA. The co-hosts comfortably defeated Paraguay and Australia to book their progression as Group D winners after just two matches, thanks to the new rules regarding how teams level on points are placed. Bosnia & Herzegovina finished as one of the best third-placed teams after they earned four points in Group B, beating Qatar 3-1 in their final group match to secure their place in the knockout stages.

England v South Africa Women (Cricket - T20 World Cup)

From 18:30

Coverage of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup semi-final at Old Trafford Cricket Ground. England will look to make home advantage count as they bid to reach another Women's T20 World Cup final, but standing in their way is a South Africa side that has become a force in the shortest format, having finished runners-up at the 2023 tournament. These teams have developed a competitive rivalry in recent years, with several closely fought T20 internationals, and with a place in the World Cup final at stake, another thrilling encounter is expected.

From 00:00

Coverage of this FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 tie from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Two familiar European rivals meet in one of the standout knockout fixtures, with Portugal looking to continue their strong tournament form against a Croatia side renowned for its composure and experience on the biggest stage. Croatia have reached the latter stages of the last two World Cups, finishing runners-up in 2018 and third in 2022, while Portugal are aiming to build on their consistent record of reaching the knockout rounds in recent major tournaments. The nations last met in the group stage of Euro 2024, where Portugal edged a tight contest 2-1, and another closely fought encounter is expected with a place in the last 16 at stake.

Switzerland vs Algeria (World Cup)

Switzerland vs Algeria (World Cup)

From 04:00

Coverage of this FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 tie from Lumen Field in Seattle. Switzerland take on Algeria in a fascinating knockout encounter between two well-organised sides looking to reach the last 16. The Swiss have reached the knockout stages in four of the last five World Cups, while Algeria will be hoping to match—or better—their best-ever tournament run after reaching the Round of 16 in 2014, where they pushed eventual champions Germany to extra time before narrowly losing 2-1. With both teams built on defensive discipline and quick transitions, this promises to be a closely contested affair with a place in the quarter-finals on the line

Australia v Egypt (World Cup)

Australia v Egypt (World Cup)

From 19:00

Coverage of the round-of-32 match at Dallas Stadium in the USA. Australia finished second in Group D behind United States after they picked up four points from their three matches. They did lose 2-0 to the co-hosts but a 2-0 victory over Turkiye and a 0-0 draw against Paraguay meant they progressed to the knockout stages for the second successive World Cup. Egypt came through their group undefeated, beating New Zealand and drawing with Belgium and Iran, with the winners expected to face Argentina in the last 16.

Argentina vs Cabo Verde (World Cup)

Argentina vs Cabo Verde (World Cup)

From 23:00

Coverage of the round-of-32 match at Miami Stadium in the USA. Reigning champions Argentina topped Group J with a game to spare after talisman Lionel Messi scored all five of his team's goals in wins over Algeria and Austria. The progress of Cape Verde is arguably the story of the tournament so far, with the unfancied and unheralded minnows reaching this stage at the first attempt, courtesy of draws against Spain, Uruguay and Saudi Arabia.

Colombia vs Ghana (World Cup)

Colombia vs Ghana (World Cup)

From 02:30

Coverage of this FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 tie from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Colombia and Ghana meet in the knockout stages of the World Cup for the first time, with both nations looking to book their place in the last 16. Colombia reached the quarter-finals in 2014 thanks to the goals of James Rodríguez, while Ghana made history in 2010 by becoming only the third African nation to reach the World Cup quarter-finals. With both sides boasting pace, flair and attacking quality, an entertaining contest is expected as the stakes rise in the first knockout round

England v India (Cricket England England T20)

England v India (Cricket England England T20)

From 14:30

Coverage of the second T20 in the five-match series from Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester. The visitors have dominated England in this format of the game over the last four years, winning eight of the last 11 meetings since July 2022. The last time these two teams met at this venue was in July 2018 when India won by eight wickets as they claimed victory in the first of three T20's in England that summer.

Canada vs Morocco (World Cup)

Canada vs Morocco (World Cup)

From 18:00

Coverage of the first round-of-16 match, which takes place at Houston Stadium in the USA. Canada edged past South Africa 1-0 in the last round, in a match that is unlikely to live long in the memory, but the Canadians won't let that bother them, although they'll be underdogs this time against a side looking to emulate their achievements of four years ago, when they reached the semi-finals. Morocco come into this match on the back of a penalty shootout victory over the Netherlands, secured thanks to a late equaliser from Fulham defender Issa Diop

France vs Paragauy (World Cup)

From 22:00

Coverage of the second round-of-16 match, which takes place at Philadelphia Stadium in the USA. The South Americans caused an upset in the last round, providing a defensive masterclass to edge past Germany in a dramatic penalty shootout, following a 1-1 draw. They'll need a similarly heroic display here against France, who are the tournament favourites, bang in form and awash with attacking talent.

Brazil vs Norway (World Cup)

Brazil vs Norway (World Cup)

From 21:00

Coverage of the third round-of-16 match, which takes place at New York/New Jersey Stadium in the USA. Brazil came from behind to beat Japan 2-1 in injury-time, having trailed at the break, with goals by Casemiro and Gabriel Martinelli breaking Japanese hearts. Despite not quite reaching their peak yet, Brazil will start as favourites here as they look to move a step closer towards a first World Cup triumph since 2002. Norway had Erling Braut Haaland to thank for a late winner in their last-32 match against Ivory Coast, after Amad Diallo's stunning goal had seemed enough to take the game into extra time.

Mexico vs England (World Cup)

Mexico vs England (World Cup)

From 01:00

Coverage of the fourth round-of-16 match, which takes place at Mexico City Stadium. England claimed a 3-0 win over Senegal in the corresponding match of the 2022 World Cup thanks to goals by Jordan Henderson, Bukayo Saka and Harry Kane. Should they have defeated DR Congo in the round of 32, the Three Lions will be involved in this contest once again, with Mexico their opponents. The co-hosts beat Ecuador 2-0 in the last round thanks to first-half goals from Julian Quinones and Raul Jimenez. Facing the Mexicans at this venue would be a particularly tough test as they have an excellent record here over the years.

England v India (Cricket England England T20)

England v India (Cricket England England T20)

From 17:30

Coverage of the third T20 in the five-match series, which takes place at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. The last time these two sides met at this venue was in the third and final T20 of a series in 2022. India had already won the series after winning the first two games but England managed to claim a consolation victory. They made 215-7 in their 20 overs before restricting the visitors to 198-9 as they won by 17 runs.
