The fixtures include France versus Morocco on July 9 in Boston, Spain against Belgium on July 10 in Los Angeles, Norway versus England on July 12 in Miami, and Argentina against Switzerland on July 12 in Kansas City.

Switzerland qualified for the quarter-finals by defeating Colombia 4-3 on penalties after a 0-0 draw. Meanwhile, the Norwegian national team has reported a viral infection affecting several players, including Jorgen Strand Larsen and Markus Pedersen, though coach Stale Solbakken noted the condition is being monitored by medical staff and expects them to be ready for their match against England.
