Likely to start for USMNT
Freese is expected to be the No. 1 goalkeeper for the USMNT in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Analysis: Freese has three clean sheets and 21 goals allowed in 15 matches with New York City FC in the 2026 MLS season. Even though USA has another dependable goalkeeper in Matt Turner, it seems Freese will be the one between the posts when the Stars and Stripes open their WC campaign against Paraguay on Friday, June 12.
Saves four, concedes two in loss
Freese made four saves in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Nashville SC.
Analysis: Freese made some big stops to keep NYCFC in the match, but it wasn't enough to earn a result against the top team in MLS. He will spend the next two weeks preparing for the World Cup, where he is expected to be the starting GK for the US Men's National Team. USA kicks off the World Cup at home against Paraguay on Friday, June 12.
