Josh Sargent, Tyler Adams named in U.S. squad to face Portugal, Pulisic out

Uncapped young players Josh Sargent, Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams are among five uncapped players who have been called into the 21-man United States squad that will face Portugal in a friendly in Leiria on Nov. 14.

The roster has a decidedly youthful bent, featuring seven players with fewer than five international appearances, in addition to five uncapped players -- 17-year-old striker Sargent, Schalke's 19-year-old midfielder McKennie, the New York Red Bulls' 18-year-old Adams, Sheffield United's 19-year-old defender Cameron Carter-Vickers, and FC Dallas goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez, 22.

The roster is the first to be named since the United States suffered a shock 2-1 defeat to Trinidad & Tobago back on Oct.
