The United States’ preparation for the 2022 World Cup this November continues with a pair of friendlies during this weekend’s international break, as the USMNT will face Japan on the neutral ground of the Merkur Speil-Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany, the home ground of Fortuna Dusseldorf of the 2.Bundesliga.
The USA-Japan match kicks off at 0826 hrs EDT with coverage on ESPN2 on a glorious Friday morning.
Gregg Berhalter has called in largely his first choice group barring several key injuries as the amount of international game minutes between now and the USA’s World Cup opener against Wales might be few and far between.
