How to watch US U-20 Men’s National Team vs. France
The Americans are off to a flying start but face a huge test on Thursday.
After scoring nine goals in their opening match of the FIFA U-20 World Cup against New Caledonia, Benjamin Cremaschi and the United States U-20s will encounter a tougher challenge against France on Thursday. They can secure progress to the round of 16 with a win, despite FC Barcelona needing to recall keeper Diego Kochen due to an injury crisis. There is plenty of talent available for the USMNT.
Cremaschi scored a hat trick and provided two assists in the opener, making him a vital player for the team. He has participated in three camps for the senior national team and hopes to earn a spot in the next one. The U.S. previously reached the semifinals in the 1989 FIFA World Youth Championship, ending in fourth place, and their latest squad finished fifth in the 2023 tournament held in Argentina, featuring players like Diego Luna and Jack McGlynn. This tournament is crucial for preparing players for both the Olympics and the senior national team.
