U.S.A has one of the youngest squads of the tournaments and must not pressurize themselves to perform.
The national side finished in 3rd place to qualify for the event with 25 points from 14 matches with 7 wins. This shows the immense clarity, vision and quality the side possesses.
USA aim to enjoy the occasion and not think much about the result. If they play to potential, USA is one of the under rated teams that can take the World Cup by storm.
