"We think it's a good group," Berhalter said. "We know every opponent in the World Cup is difficult but with England you get an exciting matchup, with Iran it's a diverse opponent and they've done well in qualifying and then we'll have to wait to see who the third opponent is.

"Overall pleased with the group and excited to get started. We played Wales recently in a friendly game, we know Scotland and their history. And then with Ukraine, you're pulling for them naturally just because of everything that's going on and you want to give the people hope and spirit so it would be nice to see Ukraine pull through.

Berhalter had words of praise for England coach Gareth Southgate.

"We go way back and he's a guy that I look up to and has always been there for me, always giving me advice," Berhalter said. "When I first took the job as national team coach, I look to him as a mentor and have a lot of respect for what he's doing. I am looking forward to competing against England. I reached out to him when I got the job and asked if he'd be interested in telling me more about international football and being the guy Gareth is, he was more than happy to have those conversations and we've kept in touch."

And Gareth Southgate ...

"When you're seeded, you get the advantage of missing out on the big six or seven teams," Southgate said. "For most of the first seeds they would be pleased with the group they get. There are some highly ranked teams in pot two. The U.S. is an interesting one, I know Gregg Berhalter well and we've met a few times and had long chats.

"They've got some very good players and we know what they could be capable of as a nation -- that's an intriguing game."

Asked about potential round-of-16 opponents, Southgate said: "We have to get out of the group first. What we've done well is we've approached these tournaments by looking at the group, getting out of the group, and then building from there."

Juventus and U.S. midfielder Weston McKennie told FS1: "The exciting thing is when you get to these world stages, when you get to these platforms to be able to play, you want to play against the best, you want to play against teams that are going to challenge you."
