Wright & Roldan power USMNT to victory | USA vs. Australia Instant Recap & Reaction (Soccer 10/14)
Description
Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the USMNT’s spirited 2-1 comeback win over Australia, a feel-good finish to the October window. Haji Wright and Cristian Roldan combined for both U.S. goals, staking serious claims for World Cup roster spots, while Chris Richards continues to earn high praise for his steady form in defense. The guys also discuss the impact of Christian Pulisic’s first-half injury and whether starting the Milan star was a calculated risk. The crew then zooms out to reflect on the broader takeaways from the window. Is the three-back setup here to stay? Which positions remain unsettled as the World Cup race heats up? And who gained or lost the most ground in the fight for a roster spot? Finally, Jimmy, Charlie, and Tony revisit Mauricio Pochettino’s role at the helm - has this window changed how they view the USMNT boss and the tactical direction he’s setting for the team?
