The United States soccer team, already qualified for the next round, will face Turkey in a World Cup match on Thursday. Coach Mauricio Pochettino has decided not to start players who have yellow cards, including defender Chris Richards, wing back Antonee Robinson, midfielder Tyler Adams, and forward Folarin Balogun.
US Team’s Strategy
Pochettino wants his team to have a strong desire to win, even though the match is not crucial for their qualification. He also needs to decide whether to start forward Christian Pulisic, who has been managing a calf muscle problem.
Turkey coach Vincenzo Montella is determined to get a result, despite his team being out of the competition. The US team has become a national sensation, with players like Pulisic appearing in mainstream television ads and becoming household names.
