Pochettino’s Final Exam Before World Cup

The U.S. Men’s National Team faces Germany in a high-stakes friendly Saturday, serving as Mauricio Pochettino’s final exam before the 2026 World Cup. With 22 players rotated in the last game, he must lock in his starting XI in just 90 minutes — under intense scrutiny, especially with social media’s harsh judgment looming. Center-back Chris Richards remains sidelined with an ankle injury, leaving Mark McKenzie and Tim Ream to anchor defense. Goalkeeper Matt Freese gets a major audition, while midfielders Weston McKennie, Sebastian Lletget, and Tyler Adams look poised. Up front, Gio Reyna, Folarin Balogun, and Christian Pulisic must deliver — with Pulisic riding high after his last outing and Reyna needing to prove he can be the game-changer the team needs. This match is about more than just points — it’s about proving readiness for the global stage. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
