As reported by İdman.Biz, the two global celebrities attended the Group D clash in which the US national team secured an impressive 4-1 victory over Paraguay.
The match was played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, one of the key venues selected for the expanded 2026 World Cup, which is being co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Beckham, who is a co-owner of Inter Miami CF and has played a major role in raising football's profile in the United States, was seen in the stands alongside Tom Cruise. Both witnessed Mauricio Pochettino's side make a winning start to the tournament on home soil.
