USA Has Good Performance Against Trinidad

7, 24 and 36 for the football ask 🫶🏻

Hi beautiful 🤭 thank you for asking

7. Who’s your favorite player from your own country?

I like this questions bc I shit on the USMNT all the time but I find some of the players very likeable! Probably Christian Pulisic?? I also (kind of??) care about Weston McKennie and Gio Reyna and Brendan Aaronson. My favorite player for my mls team is Christian Ramirez but he doesn’t really get called up!

24. Answered that one here 💕

36. Who was your first favorite player?

My first favorite player was kind of a tie between Steven Gerrard and Gareth Bale. Came into football just around Bale’s heyday at Spurs and I came to Liverpool/Liverpool came to me around the same time. Bale broke my heart a lot over the years so luckily I recovered from that early obsession lol. But Stevie very quickly became like my soulmate player and I laid in bed and cried the whole day after he said he was leaving for LA. Other early faves include Coutinho, Theo Walcott, Chicharito, and Kun. The early days before a lot of hatred and rivalry had set into me lol.

who would win in a fight, aaronson or trea turner?

Why do u wanna see two guys with small heads fight each other 🧐 but Brendan obviously, he’s a Philly/south jersey boy and can absolutely beat Turner up

Clint Dempsey on growing soccer in the USA FIFA 2026 Chances

FIFA 2026: When comparing the roster at any level to other top countries around the world since the 2022 World Cup, it’s fair to question if the U.S. has done enough to support its current core. Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, Antonee Robinson, Yunus Musah, Chris Richards, and Tyler Adams are among the key personnel who have established themselves in Europe’s top leagues since the round of 16 exit in Qatar.

Since the U.S. Men’s National Team, USMNT, made its exit in the Round of 16 during the 2022 FIFA World Cup, there has been growing concern about whether enough has been done to build on the current core of talent. Key players like Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, Antonee Robinson, Yunus Musah, Chris Richards, and Tyler Adams have secured spots in top European leagues, establishing themselves as leaders for the USMNT.

The question now is how the U.S. can change that, especially within its domestic scene. One of the ways is through better platforms and opportunities for emerging talent. Clint Dempsey, a former USMNT star, is doing just that by partnering with Spanish football giant Real Madrid and healthcare company Abbott. Their collaboration has led to the launch of the Abbott Dream Team program, a unique initiative to uncover the next generation of football talent in the U.S.

FIFA World Cup: Dream Team Tryouts Dempsey Seeks Versatile Talent

The Abbott Dream Team is hosting tryouts across five major cities in the U.S., Dallas, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Chicago, and Los Angeles, where young male and female players, ages 18-19, will have the chance to showcase their skills to Real Madrid’s coaches. The ultimate goal is to select 11 players to travel to Spain and train at Real Madrid’s renowned Ciudad Real Madrid training center.

Stay true to yourself, Dempsey advised NBCUniversal Local. The reason why you love the game should be showcased. He stressed the importance of confidence and resilience, even in the face of failure. You might hear ‘You aren’t good enough,’ but the key is to learn from setbacks instead of seeing them as losses. Even if you are good enough to make it, are you still hungry to take your game to another level?

As football continues to evolve tactically, with new player profiles like inverted fullbacks, false nines, and ball-playing goalkeepers becoming more common, Dempsey is specifically looking for complete players. These are players who can use both feet, take on defenders in 1v1 situations, and contribute effectively on both ends of the pitch. He believes versatility is crucial, as a well-rounded player can fill multiple roles on the field.

Dempsey Calls for Creativity, Competition, and Growth Ahead of FIFA World Cup 2026

Play the position you love the most, Dempsey explained. If you’re a complete player, people can tell right away. However, Dempsey also underscored the importance of creativity, drawing from his own experience as a player. I want to see creative players, the ones who can take on defenders and create opportunities for themselves and others.

In terms of USMNT’s prospects for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Dempsey noted that players like Patrick Agyemang, Diego Luna, Malik Tillman, Brendan Aaronson, and Haji Wright have all improved their stocks under Pochettino’s reign. The big question is whether the U.S. will have enough depth and talent to challenge the likes of Spain, Portugal, and Argentina, who have made significant strides in player development since 2022.

Rising Giants USA Faces Tough Road to Football World Cup 2026

These countries are emerging as strong contenders for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with Spain, in particular, already showing the impact of its up-and-coming stars. The 2024 UEFA European Championship winners have seen the rise of young wingers like Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, alongside promising defenders such as Pau Cubarsi and Alejandro Balde.

Portugal, which claimed the 2025 UEFA Nations League, still boasts the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo, who will be 41 by the time of the 2026 tournament. However, there are rising stars in the Portuguese squad, including midfielders Vitinha and João Neves, who bring a blend of youth and experience, having already tasted success in the Champions League.

For the USMNT, the road to the 2026 FIFA World Cup promises to be filled with challenges. While the U.S. managed to make it out of its group in Qatar, the 3-1 loss to the Netherlands in the Round of 16 showed that they still have a long way to go before they can compete with the world’s top teams.

Dempsey Home-Field Advantage Key for USA in World Cup

Dempsey believes that hosting the World Cup on U.S. soil will provide a unique advantage, serving as a 12th man to fuel the team’s confidence and energy. He likened the situation to the U.S.’s performance in the 1994 World Cup, where the team shocked the world with unexpected performances.

If that 1994 team could make an impact, there’s no reason why this team, fully fit and confident, couldn’t do something special, Dempsey said. The clock is ticking, and with the 2026 FIFA World Cup just around the corner, the U.S. has a golden opportunity to capitalize on its home-field advantage.

But in order to make a deep run, the USMNT will need to continue to develop top-tier talent both domestically and abroad, ensuring that the next generation of players is ready to compete with the best on the world stage. Dempsey, who knows a thing or two about what it takes to succeed at the highest level, has been providing valuable tips to aspiring players on how to stand out.

DOHA (The New York Times) — Together they share the convivial closeness of fraternity brothers. They are blessed with fresh legs and unlined faces. They don’t know any better than to be brimming with confidence.

They are the United States men’s soccer team, and they are young — very young. With an average age of 25 years 214 days, they will be the second-youngest of the 32 squads when the World Cup begins on Sunday in Qatar, according to Nielsen’s Gracenote, a data provider. Only Ghana, with an average of 25 years 108 days, has a younger 26-man squad.

They are America’s first Gen Z World Cup team. Time will tell whether they represent, as many hope, a golden generation. For now, at least, they have their youth, the endless possibility of tomorrow and that pleasantly anxious feeling that they might be at the starting point of something really, really good.

“One of them didn’t know who Prince was,” midfielder Kellyn Acosta, at 27 one of the older players on the squad, said about his younger teammates. “It’s like, ‘Wait, how old are you again?’”

Age is but a number, of course, and it tells only a sliver of the story when evaluating a team against a field of opponents. For a single group of players, though, it can be a narratively significant data point, a marker of a place in a developmental arc. More broadly, and potentially more worryingly for this year’s U.S. team, historical statistics show that a surplus of young players does not augur well for a team’s performance at a World Cup: At the past 12 World Cups, only five teams — Poland (1974, 1982), Brazil (1978), Sweden (1994) and Germany (2010) — have finished in the top four with squads whose average age was under 26, according Nielsen’s Gracenote.

USMNT beats Panama, 5-1, all but locks up Qatar 2022 spot

USMNT beats Panama, 5-1, all but locks up Qatar 2022 spot

Christian Pulisic notched a hat trick to bring Team USA to the brink of World Cup qualification.Photo: Getty Images It’s not official yet. The USMNT still has to dot the i’s and cross the t’s and all that. Which means they have to manage to not lose to Costa Rica by six goals or more on Wednesday. Quite frankly, the more impressive feat than qualifying for the World Cup would be losing by six in…
