00:00It's going to be a debut for Valho, the keeper that plays this club football in Turkey.
00:10Push down the right side here towards Joao Felix.
00:13Tessman putting the pressure on Joao Felix turns out of trouble and wins the free kick.
00:18This is 52nd cap for Joao Felix.
00:24Won the Nations League in 2019 and 2025.
00:35Of course, Christian Pulisic's teammate on loan at Milan last year.
00:46And here come the final two changes for Portugal.
00:52Jose Sarr hasn't had a lot to do, has he?
00:54Second half through a couple of stops, first half, the Wolves goalkeeper.
00:58Valho coming in, in goal for his debut.
01:01And also, Fernandes, the West Ham United man, coming on for a debut as well.
01:11And he comes on for Bruno Fernandes.
01:15Who has played most of these two matches, Bruno Fernandes.
01:22I would guess, without doing the math, that he's played the most minutes of any Portugal player in this window.
01:28Roll down.
01:30At your man.
01:39Valho's first touch as an international player.
01:44Inside the final five minutes here.
01:48Trincao's goal in the 37th minute, giving Portugal the lead.
01:52And then, just before the hour, Joao Felix making it two.
01:56Here's Roldan.
01:57He came on half-time at the weekend for Johnny Cardoso.
02:00Now Tessman, down the left side it comes for Adjeman, who scored late on to pull that goal back.
02:08Well, let's take a look at our Bank of America moment of the match.
02:12Well, the positive side of this ball is, it's a lovely strike.
02:16Takes a touch.
02:18Doesn't need a lot of power on it.
02:19Just has that little slice to it.
02:22This is the perfect angle.
02:25Off the post and in.
02:33Adjeman's ball through.
02:34Aronson couldn't get on the end of that one.
02:37Don't say Sauer down the right side.
02:41There's been a live wire down this right touchline since coming on the Juventus man.
02:46Austin McKennie's teammate.
02:49Mendez will chase forward.
02:50That cross in from the left side.
02:53Almost causing free some problems.
02:59See what he's trying.
03:00Just gets a tremendous amount of pace on this.
03:02He just wants that in around waist height.
03:06Just overhits it.
03:11I mentioned the arrival of Konsei Sauer at half-time.
03:15Great, that a bit of history at the last Euros.
03:17The second father-son combination to score in the European Championships.
03:22His father, Sergio, scored in Euro 2000, of course.
03:26And then Francisco 24 years later.
03:28What a family honor that is to have both scored in the European Championships.
03:42This is Richards at the back.
03:43I won't put you on the spot by asking who was the first father-son combination.
03:47It was actually in Statman Steve's game notes coming in.
03:52But now he's scrambling to find it as well.
03:58You mean you don't read the game notes?
03:59There's a 0% chance I don't know the answer to this.
04:10We're two minutes from full-time here.
04:12The final game before Maurizio Pochettino names the roster for the World Cup.
04:19That will be named in New York in 56 days' time.
04:23There are 72 days until the World Cup begins.
04:25June 11th, the United States will play on June 12th, the opening game against Paraguay in L.A.
04:32They'll then face Australia and Seattle before Turquie in L.A. to finish the group.
04:38Turquie booking their spot today with the win against Kosovo.
04:51The answer to the popular quiz question, Chiesa's.
04:57Enrico and Federico Chiesa in 1996 and 2020.
05:03I was going to guess that.
05:04I thought so.
05:07Just not quick enough.
05:19Reina.
05:23Back for Roldan, who's under pressure, Kosovo able to pick it up, but the referee gives the free kick here.
05:44That's Felix with the ball through the middle and well defended by Austin Trusty.
05:48Really well done.
05:50He's had a decent night tonight, Austin Trusty.
05:55A concern now as he goes down.
06:01Grabbing the back of that leg.
06:03Wouldn't surprise you after the work break he put in.
06:06He's feeling a little bit of a cramp.
06:09But this is just great recovery there.
06:15Gets there ahead of the Chaluka man, Paulinho.
06:24Well, the tests keep on coming for the U.S.
06:30Stoppage time is presented by Marriott Bonvoy.
06:33We're into four minutes of time to be added on here at the end of this one.
06:36And then Senegal and Germany.
06:40The final two games before the World Cup in Charlotte and Chicago.
06:44A go.
06:51Concei Sao.
06:53They'll get it back down the right side here.
06:57Reina tried to get a foot in.
06:58It's curving towards Vega, who was the player furthest forward.
07:03Coming up next is the CBS Health postgame show.
07:10Another change coming here with McKenzie coming in to replace Austin Trusty.
07:20So Trusty can be pleased with his night's work.
07:25The question is, is it enough at this stage?
07:31Having had limited minutes over the course of the last 18 months or so under Maurizio Pochettino.
07:41Cross with the high ball downfield.
07:43Austin Trusty had some really positive stats throughout this game.
07:47I really like the pairing between him and Chris Richards, but in terms of duels, he led the team, recoveries.
07:53He had eight or nine clearances.
07:55I think he had a solid performance.
07:57Oh, did Fries get a touch?
08:00Yes, he did.
08:02It's a corner on the far side.
08:06A seventh corner of the game for Portugal.
08:09Right here, I think this is a great save.
08:12Yeah, that's going right in that far corner.
08:15Like in the first half where he gets down quickly with his fingertips and stops it from going in the
08:20side.
08:20That was a wonderful save.
08:25Portugal going short on the far side, comes out here towards Mendes.
08:37No, no, Mendes.
08:38PSG man tries to get forward, whips that cross into the middle.
08:41It was a really good delivery and then it's well over the bar as it dropped back.
08:45Not troubling Matt Fries, who we saw that save from.
08:48Fernandez with the shot and we talk about players who have done a good job tonight.
08:54Matt Fries is another one who can be pretty pleased with his performance and maybe making it a little bit
09:00clearer after this international window as to,
09:03if it wasn't before, which it maybe was, we thought for a while it might be Matt Fries' job to
09:07lose.
09:08And he certainly solidified that.
09:10He's been excellent tonight.
09:11Excellent.
09:12It's a really big save.
09:14I mean, it's two saves that not a lot of goalkeepers are making both of those really, really good.
09:25Two assists tonight for Bruno Fernandes.
09:27His first Portugal cap with two assists since October of 2023.
09:37It's been a while since the United States has managed to beat European opposition.
09:43It would be the eighth defeat in a row against a European team.
09:50Bruno Fernandes, magnificent tonight for Portugal.
09:56Back heel assist for the first goal for Trincao.
09:59Here's Arfston.
10:04Can't say Sal looking to get away.
10:05Balogun battling for it.
10:07The referee gives the free kick.
10:22The referee with a check of the watch.
10:25Blows the whistle to bring this one to a close.
10:28Two defeats in this international window for the United States.
10:33Mauricio Pochettino sees his sidefall to Belgium and now Portugal.
10:40And before we see this team again, he will name his squad for the World Cup.
10:46The next time we call a game, it's going to be the team going to the World Cup.
10:50There's a few players that weren't here.
10:52You'd expect to be on that roster or maybe in the starting lineup.
10:55But the ones on the bubble, did they do enough?
10:59To change Pochettino's mind and ensure that the dream of playing in the World Cup exists for them.
11:05Charles Felix scored the second goal for Portugal after the first from Trincao.
11:09Not long before halftime.
11:11Christian Pulisic denied on a couple of occasions as the United States went close.
11:17But they fall here in Atlanta by two goals to nil.
11:20U.S. soccer on TNT is presented by Bank of America.
11:24All things� from Trincao isốtca.
11:24Cochettino's mind.
