The US men’s national team is showing resilience and determination as they bounce back from a defeat in their first group game at the Olympics. In a dominant display, they sprinted out to a 3-0 lead in fewer than 30 minutes against New Zealand.
Unlike the star-studded US women’s national team, the men’s team comprises players under 23 years old. Historically considered underdogs in Olympic play, this marks the first time the US has sent a men’s team to the Olympics since the Beijing Summer Games in 2008.
The goals that propelled the US men’s team to their impressive lead came from Djordjie Mihailovic, Walker Zimmerman, and Gianluca Busio. Their strong performance not only showcases their talent but also highlights their determination to compete at the highest level on the Olympic stage.
