Two wins in two matches to start this World Cup means the United States doesn’t need to beat Turkey on Thursday. They’re guaranteed to finish top of Group D and know when and where (and probably who) they’re playing next.
But, with the country pulling together behind them in a way never seen before in American men’s soccer history, they really, really want to.
“When you win your last game, you go into the next one with that little bit of extra,” Christian Pulisic told reporters on Wednesday.
