Hello! And welcome along to The Athletic, where today we are paying close attention to the US men’s national team (USMNT).
The start of the 2026 World Cup is in our sights and every team is running out of time to prepare for the tournament.
As co-hosts, the USMNT has not had to go through qualifying, so are making use of multiple international friendlies.
Today’s game sees South American side Uruguay travel to the States, having already qualified for the World Cup.
There are still a few hours until kick-off, so stick with us for all the build-up, right here.
