The latest USMNT uniform is sure to be a hit with fans as Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie and Co. prepare for their biggest World Cup ever. For the first time, 48 countries will participate in the largest men’s World Cup in history.
Pulisic and the U.S. team were drawn in Group D along with Australia, Paraguay and a UEFA undecided country. The final group standings will be decided through the European playoffs before the tournament.
