U.S. men’s National Team Coach Gregg Berhalter faces an uncertain future after a disastrous performance in the 2024 Copa América.

The United States was eliminated in the group stage for the first time after losing to Uruguay 1–0 on Monday. The United States finished the Copa América with a win against Bolivia and two losses, including a setback to CONCACAF rival Panama when the Americans were forced to play with 10 men.
