Before we get into all the great action from this past weekend, let’s take a step back for a moment and really enjoy the wide angle view. Just look how far the pool of American players has progressed since this Yanks Abroad report from 2017! We’ve come a long way and there is truly a lot of deserved optimism around the United States Men’s National Team for the first time since they failed to qualify for the World Cup.
It wasn’t just a trio of assists for Gio Reyna, or Sergiño Dest becoming the first American to play for Barcelona (with another American on the bench as well), or even Chris Richards getting an assist in his first start for Bayern Munich!
