Shaq made his debut on the United States National Team roster in the clash that pitted the American squad against France, a match held at the Groupama Stadium in Lyon. The "Granota" full-back jumped right into his position and made himself at home embedding himself among the regular occupants of the American rearguard defense. The defender enjoyed 74 minutes of game before heading to the dressing room after being relieved by Yedlin. Green put the U.S. team in the lead in the final minutes of the first half. Mbappé scored the goal for France when the match was finalizing.
