USMNT vs. Colombia: How to watch friendly, TV channel, live stream

The U.S. men’s national team will get a real test heading into Copa América as it squares off with Colombia just outside of Washington, D.C.

The USMNT has been open about how important it will be to contend for a first-ever Copa América success, especially given the caliber of teams involved.

Los Cafeteros rank right up there with any team from CONMEBOL, and are themselves a major contender to win this summer’s major tournament.

USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter will want to measure his side against a top opponent, but he also enters this match with a major puzzle to solve. Sergiño Dest’s knee injury has left the team without a clear answer at right back, and the U.S. could possibly test a new formation to address the issue.

Colombia, meanwhile, will be looking to fine-tune an eclectic roster featuring players whose clubs are in four different confederations.

Since Néstor Lorenzo was appointed the team’s head coach in June 2022, Colombia has not lost, posting a 14W-5D-0L record that includes wins over powers like Brazil and Spain. One of those five draws is a scoreless clash with the USMNT back in January 2023.

Following Wednesday’s friendly against Brazil, the USMNT will start the Copa América on June 23. The U.S. is in Group C alongside Uruguay, Panama, and Bolivia. Meanwhile, Colombia awaits its start in Group D, where Brazil, Paraguay, and Costa Rica are the competition.
