What success in the World Cup looks like for the USMNT

Here’s a trivia question that will win you strange looks from people who don’t follow soccer for knowing: how many games has the USMNT won in the World Cup since 1990? Here’s another one: Since 1990 what is the most wins the USMNT has in a single World Cup?

The answers are... five and two. In fact, The USMNT has played 26 World Cup matches, won five, drew six and lost 15. It’s... not a lot of wins and in three of the World Cups the USA has participated in, it come back with zero wins. Arguably, this is terrible.
