For the first time in a long time, the USMNT had what can undoubtedly be considered a successful international window. First, they came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw against a feisty and stingy Ecuador team on Friday night. Tuesday, the U.S. came from behind again to beat Australia 2-1. That’s two good results against two teams that have qualified for the 2026 World Cup.
In addition to this being a good window for the team, plenty of individuals stood out as well. On the other hand, there are also a few players who didn’t help their case for making the World Cup roster.
