THE BIGGER PICTURE: Coach Gregg Berhalter will feel vindicated for giving the 22-year-old a place in the starting XI, as many expected to see Brenden Aaronson or Giovanni Reyna get the nod ahead of him.

WHAT NEXT FOR USA? After the clash against Wales, USMNT will take on England in their second game on November 25.
