USMNT manager Berhalter: Scary England can win the World Cup

United States manager Gregg Berhalter says England is a scary opponent at the World Cup and they can win the tournament in Qatar.

The USA

will play with

England

in the World Cup on November 25. Both teams also faced each other in the 2010 World Cup which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Berhalter admits that England is a scary opponent and they are among the favorites to win the

World Cup.

"We all agree they have a squad that can win the World Cup,"

Berhalter told reporters.

“It’s scary thinking about how we’re going to beat them. We’ll look at some of the games, look at some of their vulnerabilities and try to exploit that.”

United States manager also praised Gareth Southgate's work as England manager and believes he has helped his players to handle pressure.

"Now I think we all agree they have a squad that can win the World Cup. And Gareth, in my opinion, has done a great job of helping the players cope with that pressure. And actually using the jersey as a cape rather than a straitjacket and really giving them the freedom to play on the field, giving them the idea that they can represent their country in a positive way and make the country proud.”

The USA is in Group B with England, Wales, and Iran. They will face Wales in their first game on November 21.

United States national team will face Saudi Arabia on Tuesday in a friendly match.
