Striker Josh Sargent suffered an ankle injury in the second half of that match and will be replaced in the U.S. starting XI by forward Jesus Ferreira. He will be making his first appearance of the tournament. Center back Walker Zimmerman, who didn’t start against Iran but came on as a sub in the second half, also was reinstated in coach Gregg Berhalter’s lineup, in place of Cameron Carter-Vickers. Zimmerman cleared a ball approaching the goal line that had gotten past goalie Matt Turner late in stoppage time to preserve the win.
