Empoli Primavera Descripción general

A camp with 13 newcomers ended with a perfect run, which ensures that the next phase of the USMNT will look different than the last.

Justin Ellis' winner capped a perfect four-game window, Alex Freeman impressed and Cole Campbell finally made his debut. Yunus Musah, however, struggled to find his place in Mauricio Pochettino's side.

The Philadelphia Union teenager's movement and pressing show why his USMNT breakthrough is about more than one spectacular goal. The challenge is balancing freedom with restraint.

"Every game is critical," says Pochettino as USMNT kick off four fall friendlies against Peru, Chile, Mexico and Canada, with a young, refreshed roster and a teenage sensation closing in on his senior debut.
