Sporting Kansas City defender Graham Zusi and the U.S. Men’s National Team return to action Saturday when they host Venezuela in a World Cup qualifying tune-up against Venezuela at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. CT on FS1, UniMas and Univision Deportes Network.
Saturday’s friendly comes ahead of pivotal World Cup qualifiers against Trinidad and Tobago on June 8 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colorado and archrival Mexico on June 11 at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.
Led by head coach Bruce Arena, the U.S. MNT will take the field for the first time since earning four points from a pair of World Cup qualifiers in March to climb from sixth place to fourth in CONCACAF’s Hexagonal.
