Celebrating Black History Month “DeAndre Yedlin”

DeAndre Roselle Yedlin (born July 9, 1993) is an American professional football player who now represents Inter Miami CF in Major League Soccer and the US national team. Yedlin is mostly a right-back, but he has also played as a winger and a wide midfielder.
On June 7, 2013, Yedlin was named to the United States’ under-20 roster for the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey. A week later, Yedlin earned his U-20 international debut in a 3–1 win over Portugal.

On January 3, 2014, Yedlin was called up to the senior men’s national team for the first time. On February 1, 2014, he made his senior squad debut against South Korea in a friendly match. Yedlin was named to the final 23-man roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup by the United States. He came on as a late second-half substitute against Portugal to make his World Cup debut. He assisted on Clint Dempsey’s late goal, which gave the United States a 2–1 lead. He also came in late in the following game, a 1–0 defeat to Germany, where his deep cross to Dempsey was headed wide. Yedlin came on as a substitute for the injured Fabian Johnson in the round of 16 matches against Belgium.

In a match against Paraguay during the 2016 Copa America Centenario, Yedlin received his second yellow card (and subsequent red).
