Canada has never won a knockout match at the World Cup. South Africa has never won a knockout match at the World Cup.
On Sunday, that will change. Canada takes on South Africa in the 2026 World Cup Round of 32. One team will advance, for the first time ever.
It's a historic moment for both of these nations, each of which is known more famously for another sport.
But they'll have the full spotlight of the international football world on Sunday. It's the only World Cup game of the day. Everyone will be watching.
And in the end, one country will have made history.
Below, we'll keep track of the action as it happens.
