00:00Fans that haven't been following this look, they have seen how special this kid could be.
00:04They're underway here in Nashville.
00:06It is McKenzie and Zimmerman, the second game together.
00:10Lovely combination, and you can see what he's trying to do.
00:12Right idea to try to hit it.
00:13Cap for the Columbus crewman.
00:17McKenzie across the back.
00:20And Brendan Aronson.
00:21Aronson then finds Austin who will come forward.
00:23Alvedi across to put it out by the corner flag.
00:26Terrific positioning.
00:28Here's that lovely bit of skill a moment ago.
00:30Pauls are sending this one long towards the right side where he couldn't find him.
00:39Joaquin Pioja Mandzambi.
00:44Mandzambi just 19 years old.
00:47So slow to get out there, and Brandon Chaka switches the point of attack.
00:51This is a little more of a languid.
00:54And Rodrigo Rodriguez with the outswing.
00:56Heading away there by Paxton Aronson.
00:58He's fired in from distance.
01:03And where it goes by Cobo.
01:04And the pressure there from Brendan Aronson.
01:08A switch ball in.
01:09No one there on the edge of the area.
01:11A Switzerland.
01:11Bruges man in the door.
01:13And around the back.
01:13This is what I was just saying.
01:25I mean, you really don't have a direct and immediate pressure on the ball.
01:28I mean, that's just way too easy.
01:30Now, obviously, that's very fortunate to be playing that high.
01:33It's just not enough.
01:37You can see players jogging to get into position.
01:40And again, I mean, very unfortunate.
01:42Too easy for the Switzerland midfielders.
01:45And that's just a tough save for a tournament to make.
01:48Got a vital goal last summer in the Euros.
02:04It will be Berhalter with the delivery.
02:05And the keeper got a touch to it.
02:10As the cross comes in there from Paxton Aronson.
02:13Jack had got a head to it.
02:14From our angle, that looked like it was going right in the side inning.
02:18And Odoi gets by Harrell.
02:21And Odoi with a strike.
02:22This is a tough thing he's never taught to be going up against.
02:31I mean, it's lucky his teammate is there.
02:34In the corner of the game.
02:36As Rodriguez takes it and goes short.
02:40Back to the edge of the area.
02:41And fortunately for the United States, Johnny Cardoso.
02:45Oh, it's by Yashari.
02:47And Johnny Cardoso brings it down.
02:49Two sets of club up against Arston.
02:51And Arston back towards Turner, who can clear up towards halfway.
02:56Definitely got that one right.
03:00The thing with the pressing, Rick, is the U.S. team, it's one player at a time.
03:06It's just pretty easy for Switzerland to just beat that initial pressure
03:10because there's never a second or third U.S. player that's all...
03:13And it's put in right on a goal line for the second goal.
03:16But it's the teenager, Johan Manzabi, for Switzerland, midway through the first half in Nashville.
03:28And then again, no pressure on the ball.
03:32I mean, look at how much time Anzabi has to pick this ball up.
03:36I mean, wonderful skill right here, especially just...
03:39Arston's expected to ball right here.
03:41A little step over, doesn't cross it, drags it with him.
03:44And Anzabi, you've got to love this skill.
03:45Here's another look at it.
03:46Step over.
03:47And Arston, at this point, backing up.
03:49He thinks that cross is coming.
03:50He reaches.
03:50He's all balanced.
03:51And then just a really easy tap-in at this point.
03:56Really strong start from Switzerland.
03:58After being rocked by those two goals in a little of...
04:03Maybe a different story.
04:04See a movement forward here for Switzerland.
04:06And Doi curling that one in.
04:07Arston deals with it.
04:10Arston going chasing.
04:13And Schmitz puts it away for a throw.
04:15But he was in.
04:17Clear as far as Zimmerman.
04:25Back out towards Haryon, who cushions the head to the path of Mbalo.
04:28He's in round the back.
04:29It's Grel Mbalo here against Arston.
04:31He's got back.
04:32Scrambled into position.
04:33He'll Mbalo here.
04:34And it's put out of play for a Switzerland corner.
04:37Another tag of ball that just plenty of space for him to run it behind.
04:42And he just doesn't get the touch that he wants here.
04:44It's a little bit behind.
04:45Recovered not only once, but twice.
04:48Of years.
04:50Going away towards the back post.
04:52And flipped away by Berhalter for corner number four for Sviga once more.
04:56Going towards the penalty spot.
04:58And Zambi couldn't get there.
05:00Isshari curls this one in.
05:02And Turner can clap.
05:03And they're playing it way out of trouble.
05:05Really nicely down the right side.
05:0625-man.
05:07Rodriguez from distance.
05:08Turner spills.
05:09And he's pulling by Mbalo.
05:11And it's 3-0.
05:12Overlapping run.
05:18No pressure whatsoever.
05:21A completely uncontested shot.
05:23I mean, a mistake from Bola just in the right place at the right time.
05:26But the problem started way up 90 yards away when it was just really easy to break.
05:32Down the left side.
05:33Austin drives.
05:35Well, wide of goal.
05:36Another one would be maybe.
05:37Alongside someone like Tyler Adams right now in this squad.
05:41Absolutely right.
05:44Takes a really good.
05:45And Zambi cutting inside.
05:49A great finish from Johan Manzambi on his foot.
05:53But this goes from bad to worse for the United States.
05:5610 minutes before.
06:02This first touch.
06:05And he tries to go close him.
06:07There's no out there.
06:08He tries to get it on now.
06:09I mean, this is just a excellent goal.
06:13Again, just too easy.
06:15Too easy for Switzerland.
06:16I mean, just a route now.
06:20Lovely finish that was.
06:2319 years old, Johan Manzambi.
06:27It's his first senior call-up in this camp.
06:3011 from the game against Turkey.
06:32Here's Manzambi down the right side.
06:34Glides through into the penalty area.
06:36Played back towards the edge of the box.
06:38Floating it forward.
06:39Here's Yashari in round the back.
06:40Yashari across goal.
06:43Good strength after a 4-2 win against Mexico at the weekend.
06:46And Doyle down that far side.
06:48When Sullivan wins it back.
06:49He's beat Sean Tulloch.
06:50But at least some of these players are in the same time.
06:54There's a ride that you've got to find.
06:56But you've got to start to show up.
06:59You don't care.
07:01Jajaka out to the left side.
07:05It's on the far side.
07:07Good ball called into the middle.
07:09And McKenzie puts it behind for another corner hit goal until the break.
07:14Tell me that there are two players that you'd say at least you bet.
07:18High ball towards Manzambi at the back post.
07:21Yashari with a good ball into the middleman.
07:29Zambi tries to bring it down.
07:30The flag is up for offside.
07:32Next, the Volkswagen halftime show.
07:36Sullivan to the edge of the box here.
07:38And he created a bit of magic floating in.
07:40And fine to claim it.
07:42Especially given the fact that they're trying to put together performances and not really caring much about the results.
07:49But soon here it's just about pride and getting the muscle memory.
07:53And Doyle blows past the defense.
07:55To come into a camp, especially debutantes, I was really fortunate at the times that I did.
08:04You know, you feel less out there.
08:07You feel like next to you guys kind of drag you through when you're a little bit timid or a little bit worried.
08:12Or you're left in a ton of veteran leadership.
