Live coverage is available in the UK on ITV1 and ITVX with Laura Woods presenting from New York with Patrick Vieira, Juan Mata and Karen Carney on punditry duties.
Vieira was widely considered to be one of the finest midfielders of his generation during spells with AC Milan, Arsenal, Juventus, Inter Milan and Manchester City.
He won 12 major honours including seven league titles and was a key part of France’s World Cup and European Championship success in 1998 and 2000.
Melbourne Victory playmaker Mata is another player who tasted dual success on the international stage with Spain’s ‘tiki-taka’ generation between 2010 and 2012.
The 38-year-old also lifted the Champions League with Chelsea and the Europa League with Manchester United before embarking on spells across the globe.
Carney rounds off the ITV panel as a leading voice in both the men’s and women’s game after a successful career with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Birmingham City.
She made over 100 appearances for England and represented her country at a combined eight major tournaments before hanging up her boots in 2019.
Commentator Joe Speight will again run viewers through the action with expert insight and analysis provided by former Leeds United forward Lucy Ward.
Ward’s post-retirement work in player welfare at Elland Road has seen her play a role in the emergence of James Milner, Fabian Delph and Kalvin Phillips.
Los Angeles Stadium is hosting its second World Cup fixture after the United States opened their Group D campaign on home soil with a 4-1 rout over Paraguay.
