Leeds United could claim a small victory when England were held to a goalless draw against the United States. While supporters, with their Three Lions glasses on, would hardly have been celebrating the point, Tyler Adams provided plenty of promise for the future.
A lot of the post-match reaction was aimed in a positive light towards the £20million summer arrival. Signed as Kalvin Phillips’ replacement, Adams thwarted England’s midfield while the former Leeds man watched on.
Brenden Aaronson, too, came off the bench for the second time at the World Cup. The American connection at Elland Road continues to grow and is expected to heighten further in the coming years.
