The USA took on Germany in New England with both sides looking to get things going in a positive direction. For Germany, it’s been a tough year as the team has struggled throughout 2023. Meanwhile, the USMNT entered the match following two wins against poor teams.
Gregg Berhalter lined up in a 4-3-3ish... maybe a 4-2-3-1 with Reyna at no. 10 though... with a side featuring Gio Reyna starting, Joe Scally making the XI, and Folarin Balogun at no. 9. The match was also of such vital importance that Tim Ream got another look with the national team wearing a cast.
