USMNT OPENS SECOND BERHALTER ERA WITH 3-0 WIN VS. UZBEKISTAN

The U.S. Men’s National Team kicked off the September international window with a 3-0 shutout victory against Uzbekistan in front of 15,569 at CITYPark as head coach Gregg Berhalter returned to lead the USA for the first time since he was re-hired this June. Forward Tim Weah got the USA on the board early, while forward Ricardo Pepi scored a second-half stoppage time insurance goal and forward Christian Pulisic added a penalty at the death to boost the USA to victory, its third against Asian competition under Berhalter. Goalkeeper Matt Turner made three crucial saves throughout the contest to earn Bud Light Man of the Match honors.

Weah’s fourth-minute goal came after a nice bit of skill from Juventus teammate Weston McKennie and was his first for the National Team since scoring the opener against Wales at last year’s FIFA World Cup. Pepi linked up with fellow substitute Brenden Aaronson for his fifth goal in as many matches for the USA in 2023, placing him in second on the team in scoring this year behind Jesús Ferreira (8 goals). Fellow substitute Malik Tillman drew the late penalty which Pulisic blasted into the upper left corner for his 26th international goal and sixth from the spot. Pulisic now sits just four goals behind Brian McBride for fifth on the USMNT’s all-time scoring chart.

ROSTER UPDATES

Matt Turner kept his 21st shutout in just his 33rd match for the USMNT against Uzbekistan, moving him past Brad Guzan (20 shutouts) into sole possession of fifth on team’s all-time shutout list. Turner departed camp following the match in order to return to England in preparation for the birth of he and his wife Ashley’s second child. Inter Miami goalkeeper Drake Callender joined the USMNT in St. Paul, Minn., on Sunday after helping Inter Miami to a 3-2 win against Sporting Kanas City on Saturday night.

Additionally, New England Revolution defender DeJuan Jones was added to the roster after Joe Scally departed camp for family reasons.

LUND THE LATEST TO DEBUT FOR THE USMNT

Days after having his one-time change of association request approved by FIFA, Danish-American left back Kristoffer Lund made his international debut for the USMNT on Saturday when he replaced Antonee Robinson in the 81st minute. Born in Denmark to an American mother and Danish father, Lund represented the country’s youth sides from U-17 to U-21 level and elected to play for the United States in his senior national team career. Lund became the 57th player to debut under USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter – the third most debuts under a USMNT head coach — and the 857th different individual to earn a cap for the U.S. Men’s National Team.

With uncapped players Drake Callender, Ben Cremaschi and Kevin Paredes on the roster, Tuesday’s match against Oman could see the number of debuts under Berhalter climb further.

AGAINST ASIA WITH AN EYE TOWARDS 2026

With the crowded schedule of competitions during the next three years in Asia, this likely represents the USMNT’s only opportunity to face opponents from the Asian Football Confederation prior to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The September matches are the USA’s first against Uzbekistan and Oman, marking the 101st and 102nd opponents in USMNT history.

“We are very intentional and committed to presenting different challenges to our team during the next three years as we continue to develop the program,” USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter said. “Uzbekistan and Oman are first-time opponents for us and both are preparing for the AFC Asian Cup, so we expect them to be good tests. We look forward to visiting two excellent soccer facilities and performing in front of the fantastic supporters in St. Louis and the Twin Cities.”

BERHALTER BACK

Gregg Berhalter resumes the role of head coach after being re-hired on June 16 of this year. The first USMNT head coach to have played for the USA at a FIFA World Cup, Berhalter returns to the position after amassing an impressive record of 37-11-12 in 60 matches during four years as head coach. After becoming the second-fastest manager in team history to achieve double-digit victories (17 games), he led the team to back-to-back confederation championships in 2021, defeating Mexico in both the inaugural Concacaf Nations League and Gold Cup finals, utilizing almost two completely different rosters in the process.

Deploying the youngest roster in the world during World Cup Qualifying, the USMNT qualified for Qatar 2022 and advanced to the Round of 16 of the FIFA World Cup with the second youngest team at the tournament while recording multiple shutouts on the world stage for the first time since 1930.

WELCOME BACK TO ST. PAUL

Tuesday’s match marks the USMNT’s third visit to Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minnesota. The home of Minnesota United FC has been a welcome venue for the team in the past, first using a brace from Tyler Boyd and goals from Paul Arriola and Gyasi Zardes in defeating Guyana 4-0 to open the Concacaf Gold Cup on June 18, 2019.

Three years later, the USA used the venue for some serious home-field advantage when the team hosted Honduras on Feb. 2, 2022 in a crucial FIFA World Cup qualifier. The team utilized set-piece goals from Weston McKennie, Walker Zimmerman and Christian Pulisic to earn a dominant 3-0 win, a victory which kept the team on the path to qualify for Qatar 2022.

EYES ON 2026
