BRENTWOOD, Tenn. (AP) - Midfielder Malik Tillman will miss the United States' exhibitions against Germany and Ghana because of an unspecified injury.

The 21-year old left PSV Eindhoven's match Sunday at Sparta Rotterdam after 72 minutes.

The U.S. Soccer Federation said Monday that it did not have an immediate replacement.

The Americans play Germany on Saturday at East Hartford, Connecticut, and Ghana three days later in Nashville. Germany will be playing its first game under new coach Julian Nagelsmann.

American players began training Monday at the Brentwood Academy. Defender Sergino Dest, midfielders Johnny Cardoso, Luca de la Torre and Lennard Maloney and forward Ricardo Pepi had not yet arrived.
