This article is about the U.S' 4-0 defeat over Trinidad and Tobago in their last preliminary world cup qualifying match. They move on to the last qualifying round now, thanks to goals from Sacha Klejstan, Jozy Altidore, and Paul Arriola. Three out of the four goals came in the second half. Many fans were excited as 17 year old Christian Pulisic of Borussia Dortmund got his first start for the senior men's national team. The next world cup qualifying match will be on November 11th against Mexico.
After watching the match, I can say that this is one of the best performances the U.S has put out. We looked like we played very attacking soccer, and our front line looked more energetic than ever. It's great to see that our striker, Jozy Altidore is back in form and scoring. Christian Pulisic is only 17 years old, and he's starting for the U.S national team. Some of my friends are the same age as he is, and they play for my high school's team. It's incredible that he's standing toe to toe with the opposition at this level. The back line looked rock solid, and even though these four have never played together, they looked like they had great chemistry. The bigger implication of this match is that Jurgen Klinsmann will start playing a 4-4-2 and starting Jozy Altidore up top, now that he is healthy. I think the U.S has finally found a look that will work for us in the upcoming world cup qualifiers.
