Earnie Stewart, then 33 and the son of an African-American serviceman, captained the United States in the 2002 opener against Portugal because of Claudio Reyna\u2019s strained right quadriceps.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>\u201cFor the last three-and-a-half years, we\u2019ve been working with the leadership council,\u201d Berhalter said of a group that included Adams, Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, and Walker Zimmerman. \u201cWe asked them, well, what do you guys want to do for the World Cup? And they thought it\u2019d be better to have a captain named for the World Cup.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The last of the 32 captains announced for this year\u2019s tournament, Adams is only the second under 30 years old. England forward Harry Kane is 29 and has captained the Three Lions since the 2018 World Cup when he was 24.<\/p>\n<p>Adams, from Wappinger, New York, captained the national team nine times previously, including seven wins, one loss, and one draw.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/><strong>Follow all the 2022 World Cup action with more from the New York Post<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Berhalter had rotated the armband since he was hired in December 2018. Pulisic captained the Americans 11 times and Zimmerman six times. Adams was captain in seven of 14 World Cup qualifiers, Pulisic four, and Zimmerman three.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComing into the national team, you\u2019re a newbie, right? You don\u2019t want to step on anyone\u2019s toes,\u201d Adams said. \u201cYou want to come in, you want to do your job, and although that hasn\u2019t changed now compared to when I first came into the national team, now I\u2019m the guy that people rely on when they need to communicate with Greg and something needs to be said.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Different players captained the United States national team for each <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> in 1950. Bahr was 23 years, 3 months, 2 days for the 5-2 loss to Chile on July 2, 1950.

He debuted with Major League Soccer\u2019s New York Red Bulls in 2015, moved to RB Leipzig in 2019, and to Leeds in the offseason.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTyler\u2019s a guy that\u2019s just mature beyond his years, and you notice it from the minute you start talking to him,\u201d Berhalter said. \u201cHe\u2019s a guy that teammates know exactly what they\u2019re going to get from him. They know that he\u2019s going to go out on the field and compete. They know that he\u2019s going to be thinking about the game. They know that he\u2019s going to be into the details of the game \u2014 not just a competitor, he\u2019s also a strategist. And I think that helps the group because he calms people down and he\u2019s a guy that people get behind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Previous World Cup captains included 24-year-old Mike Windischmann in 1990, 25-year-old Tony Meola in 1994, 37-year-old Thomas Dooley in 1998, 28-year-old Reyna in 2002, and Reyna again in 2006, 31-year-old Carlos Bocanegra in 2010 and 31-year-old Clint Dempsey in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re not a group of guys that it\u2019s like, oh, I want to be captain,\u201d McKennie said Saturday. \u201cWhoever has it, has it. The mission is still the same. The goal is still the same, and we just need all 26 players no matter their role to be on the same page and have the same role at the end of the day, which is to compete and win games.\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
