The US men’s public group started their eleventh World Cup appearance with 1-1 draw against Ridges in Al Rayyan, Qatar.
Tim Weah’s first-half objective gave the USMNT an underlying lead before Gareth Bunch changed over from the punishment spot late.
Honestly: USA 1, Ridges 1 is no debacle. No misfortune. As Tim Weah properly said, “In a World Cup, mainly, we didn’t lose.” Yet what has been going on with the U.S. on Monday night inferred that old Mike Tyson line, the one he broadly said because of whether or not he was stressed over the arrangement Evander Holyfield could have for him in their impending bout.
A large number of the youthful ability on the US program assumed a part in Monday’s down of some kind, with the exception of unused substitute Giovanni Reyna. The 20-year-old playmaker has been plagued by wounds the previous season, restricting his job with both the US and his club Borussia Dortmund.
At the point when inquired as to why he left Reyna on the seat, mentor Gregg Berhalter said: “Raising him to an acceptable level was attempting. There was some snugness we were preparing for.”
With respect to Reyna, he said: “I feel better. I feel perfect. I feel fine … [Berhalter] doesn’t need to explain to me why he didn’t place me in or why he does. Yet, I’m 100 percent. I’m all set.”
