Matt starting for USA vs Japan now. Live on ESPN 2 USA was terrible in losing 2-0. Matt Turner, though was terrific.

I didn’t see the game but at least one non-Fairfield grad was impressed either by Turner’s goalkeeping or the fact that a Fairfield (MAAC) goalkeeper was the goalie for the U.S. team today.

In an otherwise just horrendous performance for the USMNT... he was decent. I counted 4 on-target and difficult-to-save shots by Japan... he saved 2 of them. He didn't "stand on his head," but it certainly could've been worse had he not made those difficult stops. I don't think he made any awful mistakes in his distribution.

I don’t follow soccer much but from the tweet below, it looks like Turner will be the goaltender when the U.S. faces Saudi Arabia today at 2 pm on FS1.

Another lackluster performance from USA overall, but another nice game for Turner. Made a couple of nice saves in a 0-0 draw. Commentators on FOX believe he will be the starting keeper in Game 1 of the World Cup. What a story.

Tigger hanging with Ted Lasso...love it! I hope Matt makes a guest appearance.
BTW, Matt's Arsenal teammates nicknamed him Tigger for his over-exuberance at practice.

Presumed #1 keeper Zach Steffen does not make the US Olympic squad. Matt Turner will almost definitely be #1 keeper in World Cup

FYI - it's just the World Cup squad.
The US Olympic squad is a group of U23 players that qualify/compete at the Summer Olympics.
