- USA vs. Senegal will air in the US on TBS.
Mauricio Pochettino will get another chance to run the rule over his squad on Sunday as his USA men’s team plays its penultimate friendly match ahead of the World Cup against African giant Senegal.
With less than two weeks before its tournament opener against Paraguay, the USMNT will be looking to improve, having slumped to back-to-back defeats to Belgium and Portugal in its previous two friendlies earlier in the spring.
It takes on a Senegal team that cruised through World Cup qualifying in CAF Group B. Led by former Liverpool and Bayern Munich star Sadio Mané, the Lions of Teranga look well placed to improve upon their performance at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they reached the round of 16.
The USA takes on Senegal at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte on Sunday, May 31. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET or 12:30 p.m. PT in the US and Canada. That makes it an 8:30 p.m. BST kickoff in the UK, while for viewers in Australia, the game gets underway at 5:30 a.m. AEDT on Monday morning.

How to watch the USA vs. Senegal match online from anywhere using a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the international soccer action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verify whether your streaming subscription allows VPN use.
