U.S. manager Gregg Berhalter is hoping to ride the wave of young talent deep into the World Cup.
"We’re the youngest team to ever qualify for the World Cup, youngest U.S. team, and we’ll be the youngest team at the World Cup," Berhalter said Wednesday. "That’s an accomplishment for these guys. It really is."
Christian Pulisic is one of the top American stars. He plays for Chelsea in the English Premier League but is also the primary goal scorer who has given U.S. fans some hope the squad can do something big on the world stage.
