Sunderland forward Jozy Altidore will not feature in the USA’s World Cup encounter with Portugal this Sunday due to hamstring injury, the U.S. Soccer Federation confirmed.
This news is a huge blow for the entire squad as they are looking to advance to the knockout phase.
"He’s a big player for us," American midfielder Kyle Beckerman said, as quoted by reliable Agen Bola indo11.com.
"We’re extremely bummed for him and for the team, but we bring 23 players, and it’s just a chance for somebody to step up. Hopefully the injury’s not too bad and we can see Jozy later in the tournament."
And Altidore’s teammate Jermaine Jones added: "It’s bad news, but I think the team will handle this. We have to handle that."
