LIVE: Berhalter Era Begins for USMNT in First Friendly vs. Panama

The Gregg Berhalter era begins for the U.S. men's national team, with the Americans playing their first match under the new manager Sunday night vs. Panama.

The two Concacaf foes meet at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., with each turning the page. Berhalter took over in December for Dave Sarachan after a 13-month run as caretaker in the aftermath of the USA's failure to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. He's promised a new culture and a new style of play, which his MLS-based squad will look to put into action on the field vs. Los Canaleros.
