The US Men’s National Team had a triumphant return to the pitch on Tuesday night, securing a 3-0 victory over Uzbekistan in their first match since Gregg Berhalter was appointed head coach. The match was played at the Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California, and the US team was led to victory by goals from Timothy Weah, Ricardo Pepi and Christian Pulisic.
The match was a great start for Berhalter’s tenure as head coach, and the team was able to put on a show for the home crowd. Weah opened the scoring in the 33rd minute with a powerful strike from outside the box. The goal was Weah’s first for the national team, and it was quickly followed by a goal from Pepi in the 40th minute.
The second half saw more of the same from the US team, with Pulisic adding a third goal in the 57th minute. The goal was Pulisic’s first for the national team since October 2017, and it capped off a great performance from the US side.
The victory was a great way to start Berhalter’s tenure as head coach, and it will be interesting to see how the team progresses under his guidance. The US team has a lot of talent, and with Berhalter at the helm they have a great chance to make some noise in international competition.
Overall, it was a great night for US soccer fans, and the team will look to build on this performance in their next match against Ecuador on March 21st. With Berhalter now at the helm, the future looks bright for the US Men’s National Team.
