NASHVILLE — On Tuesday night, Yunus Musah will enter Geodis Park and admire the flags and banners supporting the U.S. men’s national soccer team before the friendly match against Ghana. It’s another small step on the long road to the 2026 World Cup, and the 20-year-old midfielder and his teammates will look to rebound from a sound defeat to Germany over the weekend.

Before kickoff, Musah will also allow his mind to wander for a moment when he sees the large black star stamped on the red, gold and green flag of Ghana.
