U.S. Men Out of Copa America After Loss

The United States Men's National Team was eliminated from the Copa America after a 1-0 defeat to Uruguay. Mathías Olivera scored the decisive goal in the 66th minute, which stood despite appearing offside after video review. This loss, following an earlier defeat to Panama and a win over Bolivia, has intensified calls to remove coach Gregg Berhalter before the 2026 World Cup. Berhalter, who was rehired in June 2023, acknowledged the need for a comprehensive review of the team's performance. Despite featuring top players like Christian Pulisic, the U.S. team's lackluster showing has raised concerns about their progress since the 2022 World Cup. The U.S. will next play friendlies against Canada and New Zealand in September.
