The U.S. men’s national soccer team plays the second of two January friendly matches on Wednesday when it goes up against Concacaf rival Costa Rica.
Coach Mauricio Pochettino’s USMNT won the first friendly, 3-1 over Venezuela on Saturday. Jack McGlynn, Patrick Agyemang and Matko Miljevic each scored goals in the victory. It was the first international goal for each of those three players, two of whom (Agyemang and Miljevic) made their USMNT debuts. Pochettino improved to 4-1 since taking over for former coach Gregg Berhalter last September.
This isn’t an official FIFA international break, and the USMNT’s European-based players — who are all in the midst of their club seasons — are typically not called into the national team’s January camp, which has traditionally been heavily focused on MLS talent.
