The United States men’s national team will return to action on Wednesday and is targeting a second win in five days when Mauricio Pochettino’s side host Costa Rica at Inter&Co Stadium in Orlando. The former Chelsea and Tottenham boss has won four of his five matches in charge of the USMNT to date and is still yet to taste defeat on American soil, going a perfect 3-for-3 in that regard. However, Los Ticos will travel north looking to spoil that record after beating the United States in their last tussle, reuniting almost three years since they last squared off in World Cup qualifying.

Goals from Juan Pablo Vargas and Anthony Contreras ended a run of four straight United States wins in this fixture back in March 2022, though neither player is in the current squad.
Both Pochettino and new Costa Rica coach Miguel Herrera have called together rosters made up of domestic-based talents, leaving their European and South America-based assets out for this run of friendlies.
Newly signed Huracan midfielder Milijevic will have a point to prove after seeing a third-minute penalty saved in that friendly, though his finish later in the game may have already convinced Pochettino of his character.
Save for a few anomalies in either camp, it’s clear the coaching duo is using this window as a chance to test their younger prospects, particularly in midfield and attack.
Former Mexico boss Herrera is only a fortnight into his tenure as Costa Rica manager, but preparations will already be underway for the CONCACAF Nations League later this summer.
