Statements by the United States

Gregg Berhalter spoke ahead of the match: "They are a good team. They are a very physically strong team, they will be very aggressive on the field because of the circumstances they are in and they are very good at attacking in the penalty box."

"It was an abnormal game. It was an atypical game. The field conditions were not ideal, it was monsoon type and the field was flooded with the rain, it was a very difficult game to play."

"I think Sunday's game will be another game for the team to grow. It matters a lot to me to have everyone committed and pulling in the same direction."

"We have to be faithful to our style again, with an important attitude. We know that we are supported by many fans who have bought tickets and that is important for us and especially for the players, because they feel confident at home for tomorrow's game.

"We had to lose against El Salvador, we didn't want it, nor did we have it in our plans, but it is in our plans to go out and beat the United States".

"We know that we are wrapped by many fans who have bought tickets and that for us and especially the players, it is important, because they feel that confidence at home ahead of tomorrow's match."
