The United States men's national team is not in a good spot at the moment. The Stars and Stripes previously entered Copa America 2024 with high hopes. After all, the tournament is being played on home soil and the team appeared ready to make their mark in such a prestigious competition. Nevertheless, the Americans embarrassingly […]

Leny Yoro is courting desire from both Manchester United and Real Madrid, putting the 18-year-old on the cusp of the two of the most popular clubs in the world. That brings about inherent challenges. Real Madrid and Manchester United demand higher expectations out of their stars, even if they are 18. Likewise, the competition Leny […]

Brazil's shootout loss against Uruguay was two things — dull and morbid. Without star player Vinicius, out through yellow card suspension, and Neymar, who injured his knee in March, Brazil looked utterly lost as they battled to an ugly 0-0 draw with Uruguay. Without the two, Brazil looked predictable and stale. Teenage phenom Endrick was […]

For years, the Copa America has ignored extra time, instead heading straight to penalties if games in the quarterfinals or semifinals are tied after 90 minutes. On one hand, it is exciting. Ecuador's late equalizer against Argentina on Thursday provided great drama. Lionel Messi and his Argentina teammates had not conceded in their three group-stage […]

As is the case with international tournaments, Euro 2024 will yield top-level transfers to players who were previously under the radar. Seeing players, particularly young ones, perform on the biggest stage regularly impresses teams. Think of Sofyan Amrabat after the 2022 World Cup. His performance with Morocco yielded a move to Manchester United. In past […]

Former United States men's national team star Tim Howard believes that Jurgen Klopp is a real option to replace Gregg Berhalter. The Stars and Stripes should be looking to make a managerial change following their disappointing showing at Copa America 2024. Despite needing to better Panama (ranked 43rd in the world) and Bolivia (84th), the […]

Gregg Berhalter and the United States men's national team (USMNT) crashed out of the 2024 Copa America on Monday. Following the shocking loss against Panama last week, the United States needed a positive result against Uruguay. That did not materialize. Despite the promise of a "golden generation," the USMNT is out. It is an unmitigated […]

In many ways, Copa America is an unofficial dry-run in preparation for World Cup 2026. But the CONMEBOL tournament has already exposed several issues in the United States that need to be addressed by FIFA before the World Cup kicks off in 2026. It's important to mention that the 2024 Copa America, hosted in the […]

Gregg Berhalter has broken the US Men's National Team (USMNT). If there was any doubt before, it should all be gone now. Following the 2-1 loss to Panama in the Copa America, it's clear that Berhalter's time is up as coach of the national team. A crowd of 59,145 was on hand Thursday night at […]

Qualifying top of the group, avoiding the more difficult side of the draw and only conceding one goal in three games. You’d be forgiven for thinking that things must be looking good for England and their manager Gareth Southgate at Euro 2024. But you’d be wrong, very wrong. Having come into the European Championships as […]

Euro 2024 has been an overwhelming success so far. Group stages at tournaments, especially those featuring at least 24 teams, can be quite predictable. After all, the top teams typically breeze through the smaller sides on their way to the knockout round. This current competition, however, has been filled with stellar goals and dramatic moments. […]
