The United States men’s national team returns to Concacaf World Cup qualifying for the first time since that infamous night in Couva nearly four years ago. The USMNT program has changed dramatically since that fateful night that saw them miss out on the World Cup for the first time since 1986.
Greg Berhalter’s appointment as manager was met with plenty of skepticism, but even the harshest of critics has to admit that the USMNT is in a much better position currently than it has in quite some time. This in large part due to an infusion of youthful talent mixed with some of the best comradery the player pool has ever seen.
