DeAndre Yedlin is the only player on USMNT's 26-player roster with World Cup experience, coming off the bench in last three games in Brazil in 2014.
Leading into the World Cup, Yedlin’s teammates most wanted to know about the atmosphere surrounding the tournament. How the games differed from others in terms of intensity and passion. Now that they’re in Qatar, Yedlin said they’ve asked how this tournament compares to the one in Brazil.
In 2014, the USMNT traveled more than 4,300 miles for its group-stage games, including an almost 4-hour flight to its game against Portugal in Manaus. At this World Cup, the farthest the Americans will go for a game is about 25 miles. They won’t get on a plane again or have to pack a suitcase until they’re heading home.
That Yedlin is the one his teammates seek out for answers goes beyond his World Cup experience. He’s made more appearances for the USMNT, by far, than anyone else on the team. He’s been a phenom and a role player. He’s played in college, an academy, Europe and Major League Soccer. He was a teenager when he made his debut with the national team and is now a family man, with a fiancée and a 1-year-old daughter.
