USMNT vs Iran Preview: Time for USA to show Urgency in Attacking Play

Later this afternoon, the United States will play Iran in the third and final game at 2pm EDT on FOX/Telemundo for a spot in the Round of 16 at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

For the first two games the USMNT have been highly organized and active defensively, but their transition, counter attacking, and final third play have been lacking. Now the US have been better on the attacking side than they have been at times this year, including being shut out in two friendlies back in September. But now is the time for Gregg Berhalter to show that he can deploy this talented, young US team in an attacking mentality and get goals.
