FIFA held the draw for the U-20 World Cup in South Korea. The USMNT will play in Group F against Ecuador (May 22 – Incheon Stadium), Senegal (May 25 – Incheon Stadium), and Saudi Arabia (May 28 – Daejeon World Cup Stadium).

“We are proud to have earned a group top seed for the 2017 U-20 World Cup,” USMNT U-20 coach Tab Ramos said. “As CONCACAF Champions and 2015 U-20 World Cup Quarterfinalists, we have put ourselves in a great position for this tournament. Our Youth National Team Program has been on an upward trend and we need to continue to push forward in Korea Republic. This was a difficult draw, but we are ready for the challenge. Our plan is to treat each game like a final, so our preparation now shifts to Ecuador.”
