They began their tournament last week with a 1-1 draw against Morocco at the New York New Jersey Stadium.
Most recently, they beat Haiti 3-0 at the Philadelphia Stadium, but neither of those places are among Raphinha’s favourite cities in the US, with that honour instead going to Orlando and Miami.

Raphinha, who plays his club football at FC Barcelona, recently answered a number of quick-fire questions in an interview with GQ Sports via TikTok.
When doing so, he was asked to reveal his favourite American city, but could not pick just one, instead naming both the aforementioned cities.
Elsewhere, he was asked to name one celebrity he would like to see at the World Cup and picked Will Smith.
Raphinha was also asked to select his favourite American food and chose hamburgers.
The pacey winger then revealed that Formula 1: The Movie was the last US show or movie that he watched and that his favourite thing to do when in the United States of America is visit Disneyland.
Raphinha will now turn his attention towards Brazil’s final group game of the 2026 World Cup.
The South American side are set to face off with Scotland in a Group C clash on Wednesday, June 24.
That game is taking place at the Miami Stadium, which Raphinha is sure to be pleased by.
Brazil head into the tie at the top of Group C on four points, knowing a draw would be enough to see them qualify for the Round of 32 in first or second place.
Defeat, meanwhile, could see them drop down to third place, which does not guarantee a Round of 32 place as only the eight best third-place teams out of 12 advance into the next stage of the competition.
