The top football league around the world has completed its weather. June is on us, and the final is going on in NBA and NHL.
This means that the annual “Summer of the Soccer” is almost here, as European clubs reach our soil for Presiden matches at regular-season prices. This is almost time for domestic and international tournament, dog days for MLS and NWSL to take stock of American national teams.
There is adequate action to make the head a swollen, but give credit to the governing bodies of the game-Caval football can only create a schedule that does not re-prepare the men’s national team’s participation in the Kansacf Gold Cup nor does it not against the Tri-to-Hide-Hide-D-Grede FIFA Club World Cup.
This is correct: Two high-level tournaments will compete simultaneously as the pioneers of the 2026 World Cup organized by the United States, Canada and Mexico-assuming that they are still talking to each other.
The Gold Cup, which includes 15 teams from ConcacAF (North and Central America and Caribbean) and the guest Saudi Arabia will be invited from 14 June to 6 July. The 32-Team Club World Cup will be from 14 June to 13 July. When it was last held in 2023, Manchester City won the Seven-Team Club Tourney.
Apparently, Lionel Messi will now focus on Club World Cup against Inter Miami with Inter Miami and big-time teams such as the current UEFA Champions League winner Paris St.-Germen, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Manchester City and Real Madrid, Trinidad and Tobago playing Club World Cup.
Clubs are their own inhibitors of the World Cup.
Players outside the MLS are leaving their already low offsen, while in comparison to the scale-back tournament being held in these seasons like the past. Meanwhile, this week Athletic reported that ticket sales were lagging behind, and in the last weekend, the players protested for the MLS Seattle sounders that a large part of the victory should go directly to them and not to the clubs.
This can be an inauspicious sign, but the real drama will be in the gold cup – and the possibility of “sucking summer” for America
The enthusiasm for boys in red, white and blue since failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup has not been reduced. Since then, this so-called “Golden Generation” has teased success-as a long slide has been in irrelevance after the 2022 World Cup group stage-but after that a long slide has been in irrelevance.
This is a tragic situation when men are the third most popular national team in this country, behind American women and Maxico’s male squad.
It was about 11 months ago that Greg Burhelter was canned by the US soccer after Copa Amrika failed to get out of the group stage, but the new coach Maurisio Pocheto was not successful. Panama was embarrassed in the semi -finals of the ConcacAF Nations League in March.
The problem is that the Gold Cup represents the final competitive matches for the US until the 2026 World Cup starts in 53 weeks.
Still Pocheto will be a shorthand. Weston McCeni and Tim Vih (Juventus) and Gio Reyana (Borusia Dortmund) Club will be in the World Cup, while Sergino Dest, Antony Robinson and Follerin are among many people recovering from childbirth injuries.
The biggest star of all of them, Christian police, was selected after playing more than 50 matches in each of the last two sessions. No one can congratulate him for the desire to rest – he has been taking the program on his back over the years – but it is still a bad look. If he does not care about the Gold Cup, why do we want?
On a positive note, a crop of newcomers can inject the kind of feeling and heart that is lacking. Brian White and Barelter’s son Sebastian, both Vancouver Whitecaps, and Diego Luna of Real Salt Lake are part of a hungry group who should push very least those veterans who have forgotten that playing for the US has been earned, earned, not given.
Only American women need one to see. After the 2023 World Cup defeat, the new coach Emma Hayes left the old guard and developed a program to like it. By the 2027 Women’s World Cup, the second unit of Americans will probably be good as all of other top teams in the world.
Unfortunately for Pochathino, they don’t have so much time, and the American football community is looking for any flicker of Hope in the next year’s World Cup.
The 1955 Hesmen Trophy winner Howard “Hopard” Kasdy once said for the Ohio State, “The ability is one who has not done anything.”
The American men’s national team has a lot of capacity. We are still waiting to do something with them.
