The head coach of the US national team, Mauricio Pochettino, commented on his team’s victory in the 2026 emergency match against Australia (0:2), which is the only time the Americans made it through the playoffs.
" We dominated. When foaling started in the chest, I thought what would be important. I am extremely happy for patients.
Kristian Pulisic couldn't play, but if we want to win this tournament, we need the whole team. I hope we can help the team in the best possible way.
I trained the team to widely believe in battles and masterfully change tactical schemes under any scenarios. It is our duty to adapt both to the match and to our coaching plans, thanks to our most popular words. The boys were simply fantastic,” the FIFA press service quotes Pochettino as saying..
