25 Years Later, the Promise of U.S. Soccer Remains Unfulfilled
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Despite the growth of soccer in the United States over the last quarter-century, the men's national team remains stagnant. Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams, and Weston McKennie fared no better in the 2022 and 2026 World Cups than Tim Howard, Michael Bradley, and Jozy Altidore did in 2010 and 2014. 'We want to be able to go out and compete with some of the best in the world, and we still need to take that next step,' admitted Christian Pulisic after the 4-1 defeat to Belgium, filled with errors, on Monday night in the Round of 16. Despite billions of dollars invested to elevate the national team to the global elite, Americans remain underdogs in soccer.
