Commentary: Gregg Berhalter and U.S. Soccer are in trouble after embarrassing Copa América loss

Uh oh.

In less than two years the World Cup is coming back to the U.S. and we’re not ready. Not even close.

That was obvious Monday, when a 1-0 loss to Uruguay knocked the U.S. out of the Copa América after three games. It was the first time in 20 global or continental tournaments that the national team has gone out in the group stage and the first time a Copa América host had failed to advance.

The next tournament to come here will be the 2026 World Cup.
