00:00For you personally?
00:02For me personally, I think it has to be Tessman.
00:05I look at Tessman, he's had a great start with Leona.
00:08Is the player for the US national team they need him for?
00:12He's a real star and this would be a good opportunity to see him back again.
00:16We are 245 days away from the United States World Cup opener at SoFi Stadium.
00:23Sometimes they're just not direct and just play the same ball, play it long, relieve the pressure.
00:30Tillman in towards Balogun here and Balogun drives it low.
00:33Belinda is able to make the save, that was nicely done by Tillman from that situation to send Balogun away.
00:39It's picking and choosing the right moments for these little between the lines interactions.
00:45Balogun has started the game so sharply, takes an excellent first time.
00:48You need to have a variety in your attack, including all the runs that he is making.
00:52He's had later on in the move to the striker.
00:54He's out of Valencia, trying to get in down the right side.
00:57Valencia!
00:58One more Ecuador!
01:06Against Argentina in the last World Cup qualifier in September.
01:11Tillman's ball in front post, goes all the way through to Richards!
01:18Here's a very close look at this save. It comes out so quickly.
01:24It's a wonderful, wonderful save.
01:26It's the AT&T net camp.
01:28Yeah, Richard did well to take it off the half volley. Strikes it.
01:31Huge early season game in Syria.
01:35One return here from Austin as he gets his way into the box and takes a deflection through.
01:40And it's behind off Balogun after another save by Galindo.
01:44Great reaction save from the goalkeeper.
01:47Four step pass back.
01:49Unfortunate for the US they couldn't get that shot on frame.
01:51Balogun has had a very good first 45 minutes, but the United States head in at the break.
01:56Trailing by one goal to nil.
01:59Enna Valencia scored it for Ecuador in the 24th minute.
02:05McKennie was in camp last year in Austin for Maurizio Pochettino's first camp, but he left after the first game.
02:12He didn't play because of an injury.
02:16Tillman against Angulo.
02:18Angulo comes away with the ball.
02:19There's frustration here that a couple of calls didn't go the way of the US.
02:22That's a wonderful ball from Tillman.
02:24Picks out, Luno drives it in.
02:26Great move.
02:27Yeah.
02:27There's what I was talking about, what we need.
02:30...to have that opportunity.
02:32Pressure coming here as it's given away there by O'Donies.
02:35Where?
02:35In towards Tessman.
02:36Tessman through.
02:37It's a chance for Tillman!
02:39It's Balogun off the post and in!
02:40It's 1-1!
02:42It's Balogun with a goal!
02:44Inside the final 20 minutes!
02:51Well done in midfield and Pulisic coming off.
02:56And now Rodriguez with a strike at the flex and straight at Matt Fries.
03:01And Fries has had a very quiet night tonight.
03:04520 minutes by Balogun.
03:09Preciado does well down the right side as he looks for the ball in.
03:12Campana climbs and Fries can get there.
03:15Yeah, Richard's getting a little packed.
03:18Now Ofsted on half way.
03:20Willisic continuing the run.
03:21And there's Haji Wright who is onside here.
03:25Haji Wright cuts inside.
03:26Haji Wright driving it forward but wouldn't get the direction or really the power he would have wanted on Galindez.
03:34Fourth corner of the game.
03:37And then just with the quick road, Preciado there who makes a run to the front post as it comes
03:41in.
03:41And Matt Fries is straight to Fries.
03:45One last chance for the United States.
03:48Tillman in towards the front post.
03:51And the whistle goes for full time in Austin.
03:55The United States with a 1-1 draw here against Ecuador.
