USMNT creates little optimism for World Cup with dour draw vs. Saudi Arabia in farewell friendly

MURCIA, Spain -- The United States men's national team played its final warmup match for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and while the performance was an improvement over last Friday's 2-0 defeat to Japan, a 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia on Tuesday wasn't exactly what the Americans were hoping for either.

The U.S. had the majority of possession in the match, but clear chances were at a premium for both sides. That said, goalkeeper Matt Turner still had to be sharp, delivering several impressive saves.
