US winger Tim Weah has publicly rejected disparaging comments made by former USMNT players concerning Australia, their next opponents.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Weah stated, "All this talk is just nonsense to me." His comments followed an incredulous reaction when informed of pundits' remarks describing Friday's match as a "layup" and the Australian team as "average."
These comments from former US players reportedly emerged after the US team's 4-1 victory over Paraguay in their World Cup opener. The Australian team, known as the Socceroos, is reported to have responded to the initial barbs.
The US and Australia are scheduled to face each other on Friday.
According to The Guardian Sport, current US players are not engaging with the media speculation.
