USA head coach Bob Bradley is expecting this summer's World Cup finals in South Africa to be a great tournament.

Bradley's 23-man squad became the fifth team to arrive in the country ahead of next month's showpiece event.

The nation impressed at last summer's Confederations Cup and Bradley insists he side are fully aware of what to expect out on the field.

"We have been here before and know the conditions," said Bradley.

"This World Cup is in winter and that is good for football because teams are going to play at a high pace.

"I think it is going to be a great World Cup."

USA have been placed in Group C this summer alongside the likes of England, Algeria and Slovenia.
