The United States Men's national team (USMNT) are set to face Saudi Arabia in an international friendly at the Estadio Nueva Condomina in Spain on Tuesday evening. The Green Falcons were held to a goalless stalemate by Ecuador in their previous outing on Friday. They were unimpressive in attack and had just two shots on target in the entire 90 minutes. Moreover, their track record at the Nueva Condomina, the home ground of Real Murcia, is concerning as they have lost twice in their last three matches at the venue.
The USMNT head into this fixture on the back of a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Japan. They were comprehensively outplayed in all departments and coach Gregg Berhalter admitted that his troops have a lot of work to do before the World Cup. This is their final game before the showpiece in Qatar and the U.S. have a lot to prove against the Saudis.
