ایالات متحده مقابل سنگال

The United States edged Senegal 3-2 in a frantic friendly at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, with Christian Pulisic starring with a goal and an assist, ending a 21-game scoring drought in the process. Sergiño Dest opened in the 7th minute after a Pulisic through ball, before Pulisic added his own in the 20th from a Ricardo Pepi assist. Sadio Mané then hauled Senegal level with a brace in the 43rd and 52nd minutes, both goals aided by Antonee Robinson defensive errors. Folarin Balogun had the last word in the 63rd, turning home a blocked Timothy Weah cross. For the USMNT, it was a timely confidence boost, their penultimate tune-up before co-hosting the 2026 World Cup. Senegal's second-half fight showed real quality, but recurring defensive vulnerabilities will need addressing before their own tournament campaign gets underway.
