The USA face England in the second Group B game in November with the game set to be staged at the Al Bayt stadium on 25 November.

US and Chelsea player Christian Pulisic admitted to being excited about the draw and the prospect of facing the 'Three Lions'.

The USMNT central player admitted that the first person to call him upon the conclusion of the draw was Chelsea team-mate Mason Mount who also plays for the England national side.

“We’re already talking, excited, looking forward to the game,” Pulisic said. “We’re good friends, good teammates, and it’ll be interesting to play against them in a World Cup.”
