Pulisic and Musah proud of the USMNT's draw with England

The United States midfielder Yunus Musah says the world saw their true quality after a goalless draw against England on Friday.

The United States

managed to hold England to a goalless draw in their second game at the 2022 World Cup.

Yunus Musah

admits a draw was a fair result but believes they showed their quality against England.

He said:

”I feel like the team played really well today, showed how great they are.

"Most of them are playing in great teams at a high level, and I feel like today the whole world will see the US can do good things.

"I guess time will tell. We can't just live for one game. We've got to do it consistently."

Musah also said he is proud of his teammates' performance against one of the favorites to win the tournament.

"We said that numerous times. These guys are one of the favourites to win the tournament,"

Musah said.

"They're so good.

"We knew that, and we had to work double hard today to make sure they didn't score. I'm proud of the team."

The USA needs a victory in their final group match against Iran on Tuesday to advance to the knockout stages.

"I feel like a constant theme that I'm seeing when we watch any game is it's about who wants it more,"

said Musah.

"You saw Iran, they were running and running and running, closing down and fighting for every single ball.

"At the end of the day, every team's got quality, so the team who wants it more comes out on top most of the time. That's what I saw.

"We have to be ready for that. We can't drop the intensity against them."

Chelsea star

Christian Pulisic

also said the USA dominated England at times during the game and the fact England was booed by their fans after the game showed that.

"I guess that's a positive sign when you play for the other team.

"It was a really good performance. There were stretches of the game where we had control and we had them pushed back in their own half.

"Of course, the opposing fans don't like to see that, especially when we're the 'underdogs', but we went toe-to-toe with them and put in a good performance."
