Folarin Balogun was told he didn't look very excited at making his USA debut in the fiery win over Mexico by CBS reporter Jenny Chiu in an awkward interview after Thursday night's game.

The Arsenal striker ignited excitement across US soccer by announcing last month that he was going to play internationally for USA instead of England after a whirlwind season on loan at French team Reims where he outscored Lionel Messi and Neymar.

He didn't hit the back of the net in Thursday's 3-0 win over Mexico but told Chiu he was 'overwhelmed' at finally playing his first game.
