Why U.S. Soccer firing Andonovski will be two years too late

AUCKLAND, New Zealand -- The U.S. Soccer Federation has not made any announcements yet, but it seems clear Vlatko Andonovski will not continue on as the head coach of the U.S. women's national team. Whether it's phrased that he will "part ways" or "step down," his tenure with the USWNT, which began in October 2019, will be over soon.

The problem: It's happening about two years too late.

There are a lot of reasons the USWNT crashed out of the Women's World Cup in the round of 16 against Sweden.
