The United States Men's National Team (USMNT) have announced their starting lineup for their round of 16 clash against the Netherlands at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and fans aren't happy. The Stars and Stripes are aiming to reach the quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup for the first time since 2002 but will have to get the better of the mighty Oranje first.Fans are predicting an unfavorable result, however, after seeing Walker Zimmerman in the starting line-up and Giovani Reyna named among the substitutes.Despite a good showing from Cameron Carter-Vickers in their 1-0 win over Iran, Berhalter has overlooked him in favor of Zimmerman.U.S. Men's National Soccer Team@USMNTOur Knockout Round XI.

Playing MLS players over Reyna is absolutely ridiculous. We don’t have a true 9 so you slide Weah to the 9 and bring Reyna out wide. Don’t like the Zimmerman start either.
