Summary
Soldier Field hosts the last pre-World Cup friendly for both teams, with the USMNT starting Christian Pulisic, Folarin Balogun and Tyler Adams against a Germany side led by Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz and Kai Havertz.
The lineups arrive after both teams won their previous send-off matches: the United States beat Senegal 3-2 last weekend, while Germany routed Finland 4-0 in Mainz.
Germany also carries the edge from the teams' last meeting, a 3-1 friendly win in 2023 despite Pulisic opening the scoring for the Americans.
Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. ET in Chicago, one week before the World Cup begins.
