At Estadio Unico Madre de Ciudades on June 4, the USA U20 take on Uruguay U20 in the FIFA U-20 World Cup.
USA had a terrible start to the year, drawing one and losing four of their first five games. In addition, they allowed ten goals to four goals scored. However, after their impressive performance at the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Argentina, things appear to have settled down.
In the group stage, the Stars and Stripes had a flawless run, winning all three games to lead Group B with nine points. They defeated New Zealand 4-0 in the Round of 16 to advance to the quarterfinals. Due to the quality of the team, Uruguay may be difficult to crack, but the United States should be up to the challenge.
The competition’s first title is on the line for Uruguay. In 1997 and 2013, when they finished as runners-up, they came very close twice. The South Americans have finished fourth three times and won bronze once. Manager Marcelo Broli, on the other hand, stated that those records “must be erased this time in our backyard.”
Cains only lost one game in the group stage, against England, and won three to finish second in Group E with six points. They also helped knock out Gambia, a surprise package, 1-0 in the Round of 16. On the other hand, Uruguay’s title credentials will face their most difficult test yet on Sunday.

USA U-20 vs Uruguay U-20 Prediction :
With three goals already scored, San Jose Earthquakes’ Cade Cowell is gradually becoming the face of the USA attack. Meanwhile, with two goals each, Matas Abaldo and Franco González are Uruguay’s main attacking threat.
Although Rodriguez’s contributions to Uruguay’s attack are frequently significant, the 19-year-old has yet to score in Argentina, where La Celeste have numerous other goal scorers.
Although both teams have admirable midfield fluidity and excellent wingers, the USA play with greater maturity, which could be decisive.

USA U-20 vs Uruguay U-20 Team News :
Indeed, the USA finished their last-16 whipping of New Zealand with no new injury or suspension concerns perplexing them, implying that Varas will have the advantage of a full group of players for Sunday’s down.
Varas should avoid changing his starting XI because his team has four days off, which is a welcome break from their busy group-stage schedule. Pukstas is warming up on the bench despite scoring his team’s fourth goal on Tuesday. Conversely, Uruguay supervisor Broli should work around the unfavorable shortfall of the suspended Rodriguez, who is the joint-top scorer in the ongoing Celeste Under-20 crew with 10 objectives in 37 appearances, level with skipper Fabricio Diaz.
A going after shake-up will in this manner be all together, with Nicolas Siri possibly coming in to lead the line and pushing Duarte to the left-wing position, as Juan Cruz de los Santos changes to the option to cover for the suspended Rodriguez. Although Rodrigo Chagas or Ignacio Sosa’s chances of starting in the engine room may be improved by the quick turnaround time, Broli should otherwise have access to all of his troops.
