This International Friendly will be played out in Kansas City.
After a disappointing outing in the recently concluded edition of Copa America, USA will be eyeing a comeback when they take to the field against their neighbours Canada come Sunday. The USMNT will return to action for the first time since their embarrassing exit from Copa America 2024 group stages. They were shown the exit door by Panama and Uruguay.
