USA has the ability to beat big teams- Vincent Vinay Kumar

Speaking on Sports Star, Vincent Vinay Kumar said,

I am happy to be part of the coaching staff with Stuart Law for the USA team. It will be different because after the World Cup the US team showed signs of proving that they can beat good teams. I will play a good role in ensuring that their mindset is right to believe that they can beat big teams and be more consistent in their performances at this stage.
