Sacha Kljestan has been named to the U.S. Men's National Team for their upcoming games, Jürgen Klinsmann announced during halftime of Leg 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
The men's national team will play in the Final Round Qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The Final Round, also known as the “Hex”, begins with USA-Mexico, presented by AT&T, on Nov. 11 in Columbus, Ohio. They will face Mexico at home, then Costa Rica on the road.
Kljestan recently was on the roster for their friendlies earlier this year.
His previous call up was the first for the Huntington Beach, California native since March of 2014.
