The new date is Dec 2, 2022.
American forward Christian Pulisic has been cleared to play in Saturday's round of 16 World Cup match between the U.S.
The American national team held a news conference. The photo was taken by ANP.
He was injured when he collided with Iran's goalkeeper.
After the hit in the 38th minute, the U.S. soccer staff pulled him from the game and sent him to the hospital.
Even though he was hospitalized, Pulisic said he would be ready to play on Saturday.
It was one of the most famous goals in U.S. Soccer history because of the circumstances of the goal and the price he paid for it. Iran would have gone through with just a draw if the U.S. had won Tuesday's game, but they only got draws in their other games. The team heads into Saturday's match against the Netherlands as the favorite after the Dutch squad breezed into the last 16 with three wins and a tie. The winner of the round of 16 games will advance to the quarterfinals.
The U.S. men's soccer team has only won one match in the knockout stages of the World Cup, a 2-0 victory over Mexico in 2002.
It's at least $294,000. The players on the U.S. team are going to take home a lot of money. The pay goes up to $382,609 if they make it to the quarterfinals.
Despite being taken to a hospital for an injury, Christian will play Saturday.
How much the U.S. soccer players make from the World Cup will be determined by how far they go.
The U.S. beat Iran in the World Cup.
The US and Wales are playing in the first World Cup match.
