\n\tIn the clip, McKennie sings along to the chorus while smiling at the camera before panning over to his teammates, including Tyler Adams, Christian Pulisic and Antonee Robinson, who sing along during the post-match celebration. He then turns the camera toward the other side of the bus, where the rest of the squad joins in on the festivities.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe video also included a message for the country star that read, \u201cNothing better than @ellalangleymusic after a win.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLangley\u2019s \u201cChoosin\u2019 Texas\u201d continues its historic run at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, where it logs an 11th nonconsecutive week at No. 1. The song is now the longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1 by a woman with a country hit, among songs that have also reached Billboard<\/em>\u2019s Hot Country Songs chart.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe U.S. men\u2019s team will next face Belgium on Monday in a highly anticipated rematch of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Round of 16, when the Americans fell 2-1 in extra time.
