The United States men's national team return to friendly action as they host Peru in an international fixture. Mauricio Pochettino's side take the field with a World Cup campaign now behind them, shifting focus toward the next cycle.

The USMNT's World Cup run ended in the quarter-finals, where they fell 4-1 to Belgium. Before that defeat, they beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 in the round of 16, having navigated a group stage that included wins over Australia and Paraguay.

Pochettino has been vocal about the standards he demands from his squad. After teenage defender Noahkai Banks chose to represent Germany over the United States, the USMNT coach made clear he wants players with complete commitment to the badge — nothing less.

Peru arrive having mixed results in recent friendlies. They beat Haiti away from home but were beaten 3-1 by Spain in their most recent outing before that, leaving Ricardo Gareca's successor with work to do in building consistency.

This friendly offers both sides an opportunity to experiment and prepare ahead of upcoming qualifying commitments. For the USMNT, it is also a chance to bed in new faces under Pochettino's system.

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
