BRUCE ARENA

New England Revolution coach Bruce Arena says goalkeeper Matt Turner suffered frostbite during the U.S. national team's World Cup qualifier in Minnesota but is sidelined with an unrelated injury. Turner tweeted Saturday that the United States' Feb. 2 World Cup qualifier in frigid weather at St. Paul “has nothing to do with what's kept me off the field these last few weeks.” Arena said March 8 that Turner was injured during a practice game at Los Angeles FC.

Midfielders and defenders are the players providing the goals the United States needs to reach the World Cup.

Cole Bassett scored in the 89th minute of his U.S. national team debut and the Americans set a record for victories in a calendar year with a 1-0 exhibition win over 10-man Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Getting through the first six games of World Cup qualifying has taken a village for the United States.

A 1-0 loss to Panama again highlighted the United States' disadvantage on the road in Central America and put pressure on the Americans to win at home against Costa Rica on Wednesday in Columbus, Ohio.

Two starters are injured, another tested positive for COVID-19 and a fourth was sent home as punishment.
