In a historic upset, Canada defeated the U.S. men’s national soccer team 2-1 on U.S. soil, marking the second-ever victory for Canada over the U.S. The game highlighted a lack of mentality and intensity on the part of the U.S. players, with both coaches and players calling for a mindset shift. The U.S. women’s national team, under new manager Emma Hayes, is performing well, contrasting with the struggles of the men’s team. Rumors are circulating that Mauricio Pochettino could be the next head coach, but no official announcement has been made by the USMNT. With less than two years to prepare for the 2026 World Cup, the new coach will need to instill a fighting spirit in the players to ensure success. Meanwhile, Emma Hayes has taken over as the head coach of the U.S. Women’s National Team, bringing her experience from leading Chelsea FC Women for over a decade. The clock is ticking for the USMNT to turn around their performance and compete on the international stage.
