USA manager Mauricio Pochettino said: "Progression is progression. And when you feel the progression, I think it's good. "Australia, that is a team who are very aggressive, and they came from a very good run of games. "They beat Canada in Canada; I think we need to respect, and we really respect. They are going to be another good test, like Ecuador, for us."
Liverpool are now ready to turn the page on their first competitive defeat of the young season when they make the long journey to Istanbul to face Turkish giants Galatasaray in the Champions League. It will be a near full strength Reds side as we also see the return of Hugo Ekitike following his suspension from a red card picked up midweek in the Carabao Cup win. Arne Slot will have a test on his hands to see who starts in the attack.
In Saka's case, he will certainly miss this weekend's game against Liverpool and will sit out England's two fixtures during the international break. With any hamstring injury, three or four weeks is really the best case scenario, so it has been viewed as a good outcome by Arsenal and Saka himself, who was desperate to avoid another lengthy lay-off. I think Noni Madueke will start in his place against Liverpool this weekend and that will be a big opportunity for him.
