The Czechs also play on Thursday in Harrison, New Jersey against Guatemala, having already arrived in the United States for the 2026 finals.
On Wednesday in Provo, Utah, South Korea edged out El Salvador 1-0 in their final friendly match to enter the tournament on the heels of two straight victories.
Midfielder Lee Dong-gyeong curled home a free-kick in the 57th minute of the match at BYU South Field for the only goal of the match.
South Korea previously beat Trinidad and Tobago 5-0 on Saturday, and their squad now travels to Guadalajara, Mexico, to set up their World Cup base camp.
South Korea will play all three of their group A matches in Mexico – two in Guadalajara and one in Monterrey.
Coach Hong Myung-bo made eight changes to his starting lineup from the one that began the Trinidad and Tobago match, and they took until the second half to break the deadlock as Lee Dong-gyeong found the top right corner with a left-footed shot from just outside the box.
