The United States is charging toward a pivotal moment with the 2026 World Cup on home turf (alongside Canada and Mexico), but there are still significant challenges ahead, as the tournament is still more than a year away. There's a lot of work that needs to be done to get this USMNT squad competing on the big stage.

After a disappointing Copa America performance, where the USMNT was eliminated in the group stage, head coach Gregg Berhalter was sacked and is set to replaced by Mauricio Pochettino.

2024 was expected to be crucial for building momentum towards the World Cup, but the Copa America setback has been a stumbling block. Despite this, the USMNT must continue pushing forward, with several key matches remaining this year for Pochettino to refine his squad.

A 2-0 defeat to Mexico in a friendly was then greeted by four straight wins against Jamaica (1-0, 4-2), Venezuela (3-1), and Costa Rica (3-0), setting them up nicely for a CONCACAF semi-final against Panama later this month.

Wanting to catch the next big USMNT match? GOAL has you covered. When it comes to catching all the action, there is plenty of opportunity with a number of networks broadcasting The Stars and Stripes across the whole year.
