FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — This camp for the U.S. men's national team is primarily about giving young players opportunities. And U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino liked what he saw on that front Saturday.

A few newcomers, including Jack McGlynn and Patrick Agyemang, made an impression for the USMNT in their win over Venezuela in Florida.

New coach Mauricio Pochettino, like his predecessors, is using this period to evaluate the next generation of talent while Major League Soccer is in its early stages of preseason with 20 of the 21 players in camp representing 14 MLS clubs. The lone exception is the Miami-born Miljevic, who recently signed for Huracan of Argentina.

Patrick Agyemang and Matko Miljevic scored in their international debuts, Jack McGlynn got his first national team goal, and the United States beat Venezuela 3-1 in an exhibition match between teams missing their regular starters.

With many of the top USMNT players overseas, a young American squad more than holds its own in a 3-1 win.

The U.S. men's national team began 2025 on the right foot, with an unfamiliar squad deservedly claiming a 3-1 win over Venezuela at Chase Stadium in ... then later hustling to prevent Wuilker Fáriñez from a quick throw on a potentially dangerous counter.

Three different players scored their first international goal as the US men's national team took a 3-1 victory in Saturday's friendly against Venezuela at Inter Miami CF's Chase Stadium.

Midfielder Jack McGlynn was hailed by Mauricio Pochettino as a player with "incredible potential" after scoring a screamer and creating another goal as an experimental United States team beat a second-string Venezuela 3-1 in a friendly on Saturday.
