First tiebreaker is head to head, so if Türkiye wins tonight and beats the US, it will win the group by virtue of the head to head win. But also, there is a possibility that Türkiye will beat Paraguay and the US, and Australia will beat Paraguay, creating a three way tie between the US, Türkiye, and Australia, with each team going 1-1 against the other two, in which case goal differential comes into play. Though every unlikely given the US has a +5 goal differential, it is theoretically possible that the US would finish *Third*.
