U.S.' squad for World Cup qualifiers boosted by defensive returnees

This is a modal window.

Taylor Twellman heaps praise on Josh Sargent for his play for the U.S. at the U-20 World Cup and examines his future.

Some welcome reinforcements have arrived for the United States men's national team ahead of World Cup qualifiers against Trinidad & Tobago and Mexico.

Back in March, defenders DeAndre Yedlin and Timmy Chandler, along with attackers Bobby Wood and Fabian Johnson, were injured, while Brad Guzan's wife had a baby. All were left home for the World Cup qualifiers against Honduras and Panama as a result. On top of that, Jordan Morris was called up, but struggled with an ankle injury that kept him out of both games.
