Over the last 24 matches in Provence, since his return from a thigh injury at the end of November, Timothy Weah has started 23 times, and this has not changed in the national team, as he was lined up by Mauricio Pochettino this Saturday night against Belgium.
Substituted in the 64th minute
But things turned sour for the United States in Atlanta against Rudi Garcia’s team, despite McKennie’s opening goal. The Red Devils scattered Weah, who was substituted in the 64th minute, and his teammates, who do not seem ready to realize the crazy dream declared by Pochettino: to win the World Cup at home this summer.
The other international on duty Saturday night was also a starter. Tadjidine Mmadi, three days after coming on against Norway in the 72nd minute (2-2), even played the whole match for the French U19 team against Switzerland, for a valuable victory (2-1) for Bernard Diomede’s men, who are back in the running for qualification for the Euro 2026 in the category. Next appointment against Croatia, on Tuesday. In case of victory, Mmadi’s teammates would qualify for the U19 tournament, in Wales (June 28-July 11).
