The U.S. cruised past Paraguay 4-1 in their Group D opener Friday at Los Angeles Stadium, setting the tone with a relentless first-half showing.
Mauricio Pochettino is known for his high-intensity style that platforms his main attackers. That was on display early with Christian Pulisic looking the most bright. Chris Richards also returned from injury to start alongside Tim Ream and Alex Freeman.
Malik Tillman and Folarin Balogun joined Pulisic up top as the three main attackers supported by two attacking wingbacks.
In the 7th minute, Pulisic and Weston McKennie combined brilliantly on the left flank that resulted in an own goal by Paraguay off midfielder Damian Bobadilla.
