WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The future is now for the United States' forward-in-waiting Josh Sargent.
"Josh [Sargent] will start the game tomorrow so he has a great opportunity," head coach Gregg Berhalter said during a Thursday afternoon news conference ahead of Friday's CONCACAF Nations League opener against Cuba at Audi Field. "It will be nice to see how he can perform tomorrow in the context of the team performance."
It will be the 19-year-old Werder Bremen player's second-straight start -- he went 75 minutes in a 1-1 friendly draw against Uruguay in September -- and his third straight appearance for the American side.
