Matko Miljevic
1 goal, 1 assist, 5/5 shots on target, and 82% pass completion. Miljevic quickly showcased his technical ability and flair, creating chances and raising the tempo of play.
Born in Miami, he returned to Argentina as a child and developed at Argentinos Juniors from 2011 to 2018. Now playing for Lionel Messi’s childhood club, Newell’s Old Boys, Miljevic is an intriguing prospect for the U.S. Men’s National Team (USMNT).
Jack McGlynn
1 goal, 1 assist, a team-high 86 completed passes out of 89 (97% pass completion), 3 chances created, and 3/4 duels won.
The Philadelphia Union midfielder delivered an efficient performance in the buildup and was lethal in attack. McGlynn is certainly a player to watch for the USMNT.
Patrick Agyemang
The Charlotte FC striker is making waves with his meteoric rise from Division III soccer to the USMNT, capping it off with a debut goal.
In that same match, Agyemang was everything you want from a striker: not only did he find the back of the net, but he was a constant threat to the Venezuelan defense, pressing relentlessly and finding space in transition. While it’s still early days, it’s easy to see why many U.S. fans believe a star has been unearthed.
George Campbell
The Montreal center back recorded 92% passing accuracy and 5 total clearances, yet some critics labeled his performance as subpar.
For me, Campbell was heavily involved in key defensive plays and displayed all the qualities you want in a USMNT center back. Absolutely a player to keep on the radar for Pochettino’s plans.
Diego Luna
The long-awaited, much-deserved USMNT debut for Real Salt Lake star Diego Luna finally arrived, and he impressed with 16 completed passes in just 25 minutes.
Though he didn’t tally a goal or assist, Luna’s performance hinted at his magic every time he touched the ball. A true playmaker and facilitator, Luna seems destined not only to become a key player for the USMNT but also to secure a major transfer in the coming years.
