From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sweden will need to beat top of the group Mexico in order to guarantee their place in the round of 16. Mexico already have their place confirmed in the knockout stage of the tournament.

The Swedes are coming into this game after having suffered a defeat against a 10-man Germany side. They conceded a late goal from a Toni Kroos free-kick five minutes into injury time.

Mexico have seen a string of success in the competition so far. They upset the defending champions in the group opener and went on to win over bottom of the group South Korea.
