The 2026 World Cup has started brightly for the U.S. men's national team. Through three games, the Americans have scored eight goals, won two group-stage games for the first time since 1930 and finished atop their group for only the third time in World Cup history.

But a VAR reversal — and Tah’s shootout miss minutes later — sent Germany out of the 2026 tournament in the round of 32 following a 4-3 loss on penalties to Paraguay. The defeat was Germany’s first in a World Cup penalty shootout.
