The U.S. men's national team lost to Turkey 3-2 on Thursday, June 25, in Inglewood, California, Usa Today reported. Tim Weah started for the U.S. team and afterward assessed his play in direct terms.
"I think I played a horrible game today. Disappointed in myself," Weah said.
The match carried limited consequences for either side. The U.S. team had already secured first place in Group D, while Turkey had been eliminated. Coach Mauricio Pochettino made multiple lineup changes, with four starters carrying yellow cards.
Weston McKennie was the only player who started against both Paraguay and Australia. Miles Robinson and Mark McKenzie made their World Cup debuts, and Matt Turner received his first minutes of the tournament. "Turkey was just really good today," Weah said.
"Going into the next game, we just have to fix a few things.
