Fulham and US striker Brian McBride called time on his international career on Wednesday.
"This is a special day in that I have the opportunity to thank US Soccer for all it has done for me and my family," McBride said in a statement.
"The consistent and determined efforts of the coaches, staff and players have helped bless me with the honour of being a part of three World Cups, playing the game I love over many years.
"I will truly miss being part of the team."
McBride is second player to bow out of international duty since the team's dismal showing at the World Cup.
Long-time US captain Claudio Reyna retired following the loss to Ghana in the final group game.
Coach Bruce Arena was told his contract would not be renewed at the end of the year.
McBride, 34, holds the distinction of being the only US player to score in two different World Cup finals. He is the second-highest scorer for the United States with 30 goals in 95 appearances.
McBride made his international debut in a friendly against Honduras in 1993.
Despite being plagued by numerous injuries throughout his career, McBride became a fixture in the US attack after proving to be a lethal finisher, especially with his head.
McBride scored the lone US goal during a dismal 1998 World Cup campaign where the Americans failed to advance beyond the first phase after finishing bottom of their group.
Four year later, he started all five games as the US made a shock quarter-final appearance. McBride scored against Portugal in group stage and against Mexico in a second-round meeting.
McBride failed in his attempt to become one of only a handful of players to score in three World Cup finals after the US crashed out in the group stage in Germany last month.
