USMNT falls to 2-1 loss against Turkey: Highlights, recap of Saturday friendly
The U.S. men's national team were undone by two defensive errors on Saturday, falling 2-1 in a friendly against Turkey. With a new-look squad missing several European-based regulars ahead of the Concacaf Gold Cup, Mauricio Pochettino was looking for some new faces to make their mark. Jack McGlynn did himself no harm with a spectacular first-minute curler to give the U.S. the lead, but two veterans made the mistakes that would define the match. First, Johnny Cardoso was too slow to see his options during a build-out phase, eventually striking a scrambled pass directly into Arda Güler, with the Real Madrid youngster only having to block the ball past Matt Freese for a 24th-minute equalizer. Less than three minutes later, another error inside the box — this time, an aimless clearance from Miles Robinson — gave Turkey another golden chance that Kerem Aktürkoğlu buried from close range. While the USMNT was able to create a couple of second-half chances, particularly a pair of back-post opportunities for Max Arfsten and Malik Tillman, Turkey seemed content to concede possession and frustrate the hosts. If anything, the best chance of the game's final stages fell to Turkey, with substitute Barış Alper Yılmaz blasting a one-on-one chance wide. Pro Soccer Wire had minute-by-minute updates, highlights, and analysis from Saturday's USMNT defeat: USMNT vs. Turkey highlights USMNT falls 2-1 to Turkey That's that from a rain-drenched Rentschler Field, with the USMNT falling 2-1 to Turkey. There are some positives to take away for the U.S., who largely controlled a lot of the play, but two errors — one big, and one a true calamity — handed the Turks both of their goals, throwing away a first-minute lead after Jack McGlynn's banger. It's another instance where Mauricio Pochettino will walk away with more questions than answers, particularly as the USMNT's creativity dried up once McGlynn and Diego Luna came off in the second half. USMNT vs. Turkey: Visitors waste jailbreak counter The USMNT was trying to attempt an orchestrated set piece, but made a mess out of the very first steps. Instead of a short pass turning into confusion for Turkey, the visitors won the ball and raced forward, with Nathan Harriel the only player even close to being in position to defend the break. Fortunately for the USMNT, Barış Alper Yılmaz — in alone after Turkey bypassed Harriel — ripped his shot wide of Matt Freese's right-hand post. Big let-off for the USMNT, as the Galatasaray winger could have simply steered the ball in for an easy goal. Shortly thereafter, Kerem Aktürkoğlu is replaced by Can Uzun, and Harriel is booked for an awkward challenge on İrfan Can Kahveci. USMNT vs. Turkey: Bizarre stoppage finally ends in Turkey substitutions It's a bit of a mess for the refereeing crew, but eventually we have a triple sub for Turkey: Samet Akaydin, Eren Elmalı, and Kenan Yıldız leave the match, replaced by Mustafa Eskihellaç, Yusuf Akçiçek, and İrfan Can Kahveci. Akçiçek's first action of the match is to pick up the game's first yellow card, which is not exactly ideal for the Fenerbahçe defender. USMNT: Brian White on for Patrick Agyemang Play has slowed down as Berke Özer and Eren Elmalı both get treatment for knocks in short order, but as things resume we have another USMNT sub: Brian White is on for Patrick Agyemang. USMNT triple sub: Sullivan, Harriel debut Mauricio Pochettino elects for a 65th-minute triple substitution here. Quinn Sullivan and Nathan Harriel make their debuts, entering the game alongside Haji Wright. Diego Luna, Max Arfsten, and Jack McGlynn make way. Turkey is making moves as well, with Kaan Ayhan and Barış Alper Yılmaz replacing Orkun Kökçü and Oğuz Aydın. USMNT vs. Turkey: Tillman misses golden chance More good work from the USMNT, with two looks in the 60th minute. First, a counter ends with Jack McGlynn turning down the chance to pass to an open Malik Tillman or an even more open Patrick Agyemang, only for his shot to be blocked. Tyler Adams sprinted in to pick up the loose ball and eventually clipped a delicate cross to the back post, where Tillman should have had the equalizer. Instead, the PSV playmaker headed right at Berke Özer, letting Turkey off the hook. USMNT chance sees Arfsten head wide That's much more like it from the USMNT, who move the ball up the right flank via Jack McGlynn. The goalscorer picked out Patrick Agyemang, whose knockdown to Luca de la Torre (peeling wide out of a central position) opened up the Turkey defense. De la Torre's cross found Max Arfsten pushing up to attack the back post, but the Columbus Crew wingback's header went just wide. USMNT halftime substitutions: Tyler Adams enters the fray The USMNT has come out for the second half with two new faces in the mix: Tyler Adams will replace Johnny Cardoso, while Mark McKenzie is stepping in for Miles Robinson. Is that planned, or is Mauricio Pochettino making a statement by hauling off the two players most responsible for Turkey's goals? Either way, the match has resumed. USMNT vs. Turkey: U.S. trails 2-1 at halftime A promising start for the USMNT dissolved into a 2-1 deficit after two big mistakes at the back gifted Turkey a pair of goals in a three-minute span. Jack McGlynn's curler in the first minute was a wonderful way to get going, but a catastrophic giveaway from Johnny Cardoso gave Turkey a 24th-minute equalizer, and a poor clearance from Miles Robinson handed the visitors the lead by the 27th minute. It hasn't been all bad from the USMNT, but the mistakes have been really ugly, and there have been few openings since Turkey got its act together after struggling in the opening 10 minutes. USMNT vs. Turkey formations At long last, we have a lull long enough to provide the formations for both teams: USA (4-2-3-1): Matt Freese; Alex Freeman, Chris Richards, Miles Robinson, Max Arfsten; Johnny Cardoso, Luca de la Torre; Jack McGlynn, Malik Tillman, Diego Luna; Patrick Agyemang TUR (4-3-3): Berke Özer; Zeki Çelik, Merih Demiral, Samet Akaydin, Eren Elmalı; Oğuz Aydın, Orkun Kökçü, İsmail Yüksek; Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Kerem Aktürkoğlu, Kenan Yıldız Goal(s) Turkey! Cardoso disaster, Akturkoglu finish makes it 2-1 So much for Turkey having to earn the equalizer, or the lead. First, Johnny Cardoso turned some attempts to build out of the back in the 25th minute into one of the worst USMNT goals conceded in recent memory. Under pressure that might not even be "token," Cardoso dawdled on the ball before turning and passing the ball directly into Arda Güler, who didn't even have time to react. Despite that, things worked out perfectly for Güler, with his block caroming directly into the goal. Cardoso — who is reportedly on the brink of a €30 million move to Atlético Madrid — has been so good in European play, but this will be another blow to his attempts to bring his quality to the USMNT. Making matters worse, it took just two minutes for Turkey to strike again. Oğuz Aydın kept a Turkey attack alive after the initial service bounced through the U.S. box, but his cross should have been dealt with. Instead, Miles Robinson's attempt to clear went straight to Kerem Aktürkoğlu, who duly deposited it into the back of the net from seven yards. USMNT escapes as Çalhanoğlu balloons chance over bar Turkey has come into the game a bit after a grim opening 10 minutes for Vincenzo Montella's side, but the USMNT remains in front 1-0. That is pretty fortunate, as Hakan Çalhanoğlu's 19th minute opportunity was one you'd expect the Inter veteran to put away. Kenan Yıldız got free on the left after a ball over the top caught the USMNT out, but Çalhanoğlu leaned back and fired the ball well over the crossbar. Goal USMNT! Jack McGlynn with an absolute stunner And just like that, it's 1-0 USMNT! Houston Dynamo midfielder Jack McGlynn produced a golazo just 59 seconds from kickoff. It was simple stuff in terms of build-up, with McGlynn playing a give-and-go at midfield to get into space on the right. From there, the 21-year-old cut inside onto his favored left foot before uncorking a 24-yard curling effort to beat Berke Özer. Malik Tillman registers his first official USMNT assist, but to be clear: this one's all McGlynn. USMNT vs. Turkey kicks off Amid some absolutely soggy conditions at Rentschler Field, the USMNT and Turkey have kicked this friendly off. We'll assemble formations for both teams as soon as they become apparent. USMNT vs. Turkey lineups USMNT vs. Turkey: How to watch, TV, streaming Watch USMNT vs. Turkey on Fubo

It's affordable, but reminds me of high-end products." —Amelynn $21 (available in seven shades) A face serum illuminator, a *complexion perfector* that'll hydrate your skin, giving it a ~luminous~ glow only a Cullen would have. Apply it under your makeup, over foundation, or wear it alone, cuz this is a versatile baddie in a bottle. Promising review: "My makeup has never ever looked better!!! It's the perfect glow under my foundation, and honestly, with this illuminator, you don't need foundation at all to get the dewy glass skin look.

Witchcraft, I'm telling ya! Say goodbye to your pores, cuz they'll be blurred right out. Oh, and best of all, since it's a *pressed* powder, you won't have to deal with the mess of a loose powder. Promising review: "This really helps blur/cover up the dark circles under my eyes. It looks very natural. It does not look cakey at all, which I appreciate, because I love to keep a dewy look on my face." —EmilyPrice: $36 (available in 13 shades) An Ilia complexion stick for an instant blur as if you just put an Instagram filter on your face.

Your pout will be hydrated as heck, plump, smooth, soft, and shiny, with a beautiful, sheer wash of color that's *to die for*. Promising review: "My new go-to! Absolutely love this lipstick! Feels like a good mix of gloss and color." —Lauren $24 (available in 12 shades) A Tower 28 facial spray that'll help balance skin pH and help minimize irritation, redness, and flare-ups. Formulated to mimic the makeup of our bodies, this bad boy delivers ✨hypochlorous acid✨ (no, it's not a spell for incredible skin), which is found naturally in white blood cells. Okay, so I've had this for a while, but I rarely ever used it. A few weeks ago, I had my makeup professionally done for the first time, and IDK if it was the primer that the artist used, or how my skincare reacted with the primer, but the next day, my skin was red and burning like heck. I was panicking because I just had a breakout in May and am STILL trying to get rid of the hyperpigmentation, so I didn't want the itchy, burning skin to leave me with dark spots. A day later, I remembered I had this and it would help with irritation and redness, so I began spraying it on my face twice a day. I kid you not, my face immediately stopped burning after I began using it. After trying multiple serums and moisturizers, this was the only thing that calmed my skin *and* I only got one dark spot, which wasn't even all that bad. If your skin is ever irritated, don't hesitate to grab this; I know I won' review: "Love this product, it has become my holy grail. I take it everywhere I go and have seen so much improvement in my skin. Keeps my skin clean and refreshed." —AlexPrice: $12+ (available in three sizes) A Credo Beauty moisturizer with hyaluronic acid that'll leave your skin *intensely* hydrated. It's great for all skin types or anyone who wants plump, supple, soft skin, which is, like, everyone, right? Promising review: "I absolutely love this moisturizer! I have dry, sensitive skin, and the Deep Thirst Vetiver Root + Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer has been a game-changer. It's lightweight and feels so thin when applied, yet it delivers deep hydration without any harshness or irritation. I especially love how easily it blends with my tinted sunscreen — no pilling, no heaviness. My face feels instantly refreshed and nourished every time I use it. This is definitely a new staple in my skincare routine!" —Bianca $64 An anti-itch relief balm, a must-have product that you'll wanna keep with you all summer if mosquitoes think you have "all you can eat buffet" written on your forehead. Promising review: "This is a lifesaver for bug bites. I am really allergic to mosquitoes and used to itch constantly. This is instantly soothing and takes the itch down fast. Plus, it's clean, mess-free, and easy to throw in a bag." —Sarah $16+ (available in two sizes) A dye- and latex-free green tea makeup sponge that actually smells like green tea. Which makes sense, cuz it's made from organic green tea, that's what gives it the green-ish tint! It'll blend your makeup like a dream *and* may have you craving a matcha. Promising review: "This is by far my favorite makeup sponge. I'm allergic to latex, and I hadn't realized that my previous makeup sponge was irritating my skin every time I used it because it had latex in it. This sponge doesn't irritate me at all, and it's also great at blending my makeup. I get a seamless finish every time." —HPrice: $16 An ingrown hair oil reviewers are calling "magic," cuz it works that well. Shaving won't be nearly as miserable with this, since it's specifically designed to soothe ingrown hairs, bumps, and irritation. Promising review: "I'm not kidding when I say that this stuff has changed my life. For as long as I can remember, I've been tortured by painful, cystic, ingrown hairs on my bikini line that have made me self-conscious and waxing/shaving a nightmare. I've tried cotton underwear, regular exfoliation, and moisturizing, and while these have helped, they've not kept the ingrowns at bay. Enter: FurOil. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for having discovered the Fur Oil Ingrown Concentrate. I can now get regular Brazilian waxes and not have to suffer from ingrown hairs. I use the regular Fur Oil every day after showering, and then this guy on any ingrowns that appear (much less often now!), and it knocks out all the inflammation before it has a chance to become angry and red. No more scarring or painful cysts, it's honestly like magic. I cannot recommend it more if you've been in the same boat! Between Fur Oil and salicylic acid, my skin is so much happier and healthier." —KatPrice: $34 And an exfoliating soap bar *specifically* to target ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and rough, dry skin. Impurities that lead to clogged hair follicles and irritation? Pfftt, yeah right, not with this around. Promising review: "I picked up this bar on a whim because I often experience ingrown hairs all over my lower body when I shave. Using this bar, while also using a glycolic toner, has dramatically reduced the problem. I will continue to use this soap, and I expect to repurchase it when I've used it up! I think that it will last me awhile." —Maddie $26 An Ilia skin tint with SPF 40 that's like Captain America with a protective SPF *shield* and all. It's also packed with hyaluronic acid to improve moisture levels, and squalane to help skin's hydration and elasticity. We love some lightweight makeup that's also got superpowers. Promising review: "I absolutely love this stuff for all the reasons — it's moisturizing, light coverage, and my daily sunscreen. It doesn't cake, and goes on easily with just my fingers, and it's clean! It's all I use." —Katharine $48 (available in 30 shades) A Tower 28 gel cleanser + makeup remover so you can take off concealer, foundation, blush, and more products while giving your complexion a deep clean. I have this, and I gotta say, top-freaking-tier. Elite. Exquisite. This cleanser did its big oneeeee. I love a multitasker, so this bb is right up my alley. I mean, a cleanser and makeup remover?! Genius. I have, like, a 13-step skincare routine, so anything that removes a step is an absolute blessssing. Plus, it removes makeup like a *dream*. It feels good on the skin, my oily skin is enjoying it, and it hasn't caused me to break out or have any other annoying skin problems. My face feels fresh, clean, and hydrated. And hydration + oily skin can sometimes = a scary situation, but this doesn't turn me into, how should I put this, the bottom of a bag of Five Guys fries. If this cleanser has a million fans, I'm one of 'em. If this cleanser has one fan, it's me. I'm just $20 A balancing color corrector, because no matter how much concealer you apply, your dark circles *still* are peeking through. It'll help neutralize hyperpigmentation and dark spots, delivering you a more even complexion without standing out under foundation or cracking or creasing. Promising review: "I have tried a few other products to color correct a bluish vein under one of my eyes and dark circles. I was recommended this product in store and was shown how to apply for optimal coverage. I have repurchased and will keep it as a staple." —JenniferPrice: $27 (available in six shades) A thickening brow balm that's the definition of a multitasker. Before you go buying three different products, check out this bad boy that'll thicken, tint, and provide a flexible hold. Promising review: "I've heard great things about this product, but was genuinely surprised at how well this little guy filled my brows. Couldn't believe it." —OliviaPrice: $26 (available in four shades) A vegan makeup brush soap to help easily wash away built-up oils and makeup on your brushes without drying them out or leaving residue behind. Promising review: "This soap is so easy to use and does a thorough job. I've tried almost every other major brand, and Jenny Patinkin's is by far the simplest design. Lasts forever, too, which is a bonus." —SimsPrice: $19 A Kosas concealer that some witch conjured up with the help of caffeine, hyaluronic acid, and peptides. Your skin will get a boost of hydration and any hyperpigmentation or blemishes will be hidden better than Waldo. This brightening, buildable little baby is *spellbinding*. Promising review: "I've been using this concealer for years now. Definitely one of my faves. It doesn't crease as much, and the consistency is not too thick or too thin." —Dena $32 (available in 38 shades) An underarm bar crafted with apple cider vinegar, sea salt, and activated charcoal to help your natural deodorant reaaaally work and block funk from sneaking up on you when you sweat. Promising review: "I don't know why it's taken me so long to use something like this in my natural deodorant journey. I am someone who sweats a lot and tends to get smelly, and this is a game-changer when using all-natural deodorant. I use it daily and it's a great way to make the natural deodorant work and last longer!" —AlexandraPrice: $26 A Tower 28 tinted balm blush that can *also* be used on your lips. If you've been searching for an unbelievably pigmented blush with a radiant, luminous finish, look no further. Promising review: "I own nearly all of these shades and haven't been disappointed with a single one! They're so creamy without being slippery or greasy. I think this would be a good fit for all skin types." —KBPrice: $20 (available in 10 shades) A micro tip brow pencil for creating the thinnest, natural-looking hair-like strokes your brows have ever seen. They'll be full, perfectly pigmented, and will resist budging and fading throughout your day, which is great for hot summer days and sweating. Promising review: "This pencil does the job neatly — I don't know how else to say it. Clean lines and smooth application without overdoing the look. I love it." —Donna $24 (available in eight shades) A milk hair serum that basically does it all — smooths, detangles, adds definition, and refreshes your locks. This weightless potion contains hyaluronic acid for deep moisturizing, red algae extract that'll make your hair less frizzy and easy to comb through, and ~BotaniComplex~ to preserve your hair color and promote scalp restoration. Promising review: "Holy grail. This is the perfect last step, or you can use it to freshen up your hair. Lightweight as long as you don't use too much! Love this." —Nastasia $29+ (available in two sizes) A Tower 28 tinted sunscreen with aloe vera, prickly pear, and SPF 30 that'll deliver a lightweight, natural finish while also helping to even out any redness and calm your UV-stressed skin. Use this 2-in-1 miracle for a light, fresh face *or* build this buildable baby up to more of a medium coverage look. Plus, it won't be too matte ~or~ too dewy — win. Promising review: "This is AMAZING! I am in love with this tinted sunscreen. I received the color '50 Sunset', and it is a perfect match to my skin tone. It provides buildable light-medium coverage. Moisturizing, no white cast, feels like skin, doesn't pill, and has no fragrance/scent. The tube is super easy to use, making it effortless to apply the product. I recommend this 1000%!" — $32 (available in 17 shades) An RMS Beauty mascara that'll help you achieve a smudge-free lift that won't flake throughout the day. This baby is packed with nourishing ingredients and peptides to help improve your lashes' strength and density. Promising review: "RMS Beauty's Straight Up Volumizing Peptide Mascara is a total game-changer! This mascara delivers on its promise of voluminous lashes without any clumping or flaking. The peptide-infused formula nourishes my lashes while providing a bold, long-lasting look. I'm in love with the natural and clean ingredients, making it a top choice for enhancing my lashes with confidence.

Plus, the light lavender scent it leaves behind is pretty great, too. Promising review: "I have repurchased several times.

Jimmy Graham has kicked off his ambitious 10-day Arctic Challenge
Will the New Orleans Saints great set a world record? And they're off -- former New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham is two days into a weekslong expedition to set a new speed record in rowing across the Arctic Ocean, as part of a four-person team in an open-air seafaring kayak. The crew shoved out from Tromsø, Norway at about 11:30 a.m. on Friday, July 4, prepared to spend at least 10 days at sea. Depending on weather conditions and their own endurance, the ongoing paddle may take twice as long. Supporters can follow their progress on a live tracking map on the Arctic Challenge's website, which has featured several video updates; one shows Graham standing at the prow of the boat in a bright red jacket, surveying the passing fjords before they made it out to sea. But an early deviation and persistent winds from the east have pushed them outside the plotted course. It's been far from an easy start to their journey. We'll be keeping tabs on Graham and his team in the days ahead. Their efforts aren't just for bragging rights. Through the Million Meters Club, they're working to raise $1 million for the New Orleans-based Covenant House and Laureus Sport for Good charities, as well as the Norwegian Veterans Association. Good luck to them. Graham, the former Miami Hurricanes star, hasn't shied away from adventures outside football. Since earning his piloting license and recovering from a scary cycling accident in 2023, he spent a year and a half preparing for this trip. Now it's time to see it through.
