A great match is approaching between these two teams from the American continent. Do not take off and then we share the statistics of the last game.

The last time these two teams met was on September 10, 2019 and on that occasion the game ended in a 1-1 draw at Busch Stadium. That confrontation was full of fouls, yellow cards, corner kicks and many shots on goal that we hope will be repeated today.

The United States and Uruguay will meet for the second time in their history. The first time they met there were many fouls, yellow cards, corner kicks and goals that we hope will be repeated.

The American team is already in the stadium.

The lineup of the last game of the United States: Matt Turner, Aaron Long, Walker Zimmerman, Antonee Robinson, Reggie Cannon, Tyler Adams, Yunus Musah, Brenden Aaronson, Jesus Ferreira, Christian Pulisic, and Timothy Weah.

You have to be attentive to these three players. The first is attacker Edinson Cavani (#21), he plays for Manchester United of the English Premier League, in that tournament he scored 2 goals and scored 2 goals in the last game for Uruguay. He is also a fundamental piece of the team, since he does not have Luis Suarez he will have to take on the role of captain. Another player is Matías Vecino (#5), he plays for an Italian club called Inter Milan and in Uruguay's last game he managed to score a goal. He is a young player who can give the game another rhythm. Lastly, Real Madrid player Federico Valverde (#15), at his young age is in one of the best soccer teams and will be key to distributing the ball all over the pitch.

Uruguay is preparing for the group stage of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, they are in group H and will have to face South Korea, Portugal and Ghana in November and December. They have two friendly games left against the United States and Jamaica, which will be their last games before the World Cup, so they will have to take advantage of both games to prepare enough and arrive ready for November. Their last game was against Mexico on June 2, 2022, the match ended in a victory for Uruguay 3-0.

The next three players are considered key to the US offensive attack and it is likely that any of them could score in the game against Uruguay. Outside hitter Jesús Ferreira (#9), plays in Major League Soccer with FC Dallas. He is the top scorer for his team with 9 goals and will be very important for the friendly match. Timothy Weah (#21) is a Lille player in French Ligue 1, in the 2021-2022 season he had 3 goals and 4 assists. He is 22 years old and was a scorer in the last game of the United States team. Finally, Chelsea's English Premier League player, Christian Pulisic (#10) is a very skillful player who managed 6 goals and 2 assists for his team. He has a lot of experience, acquired in Europe and it is very important that he leads the team in the game against Uruguay.

The United States soccer team is preparing for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, its last friendly game will be against Uruguay and then it will play the CONCACAF Nations League against the teams of Granada and El Salvador. The USA already has a group for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, will play in group B and will have to face England, Iran and the winner of the European playoff. In recent years, the United States has been able to create a generation of young soccer players who have managed to return to the USA for the World Cup and much is expected of them, so their preparation must be successful for November. Their last game resulted in a 3-0 win over Morocco at the TQL Stadium.

The Children's Mercy Park is located in the city of Kansas, Kansas. It will be the venue for this match, it has a capacity of 18,467 spectators, it is the home of Sporting Kansas City of the MLS and it was inaugurated on June 9, 2011.
