The purpose of the Colombia and Brazil matches is to prepare for Copa America. Nothing more, nothing less. Obviously this result does not bode well for the important competition to come. The poor performance is significant. The final score is not.We seem to lose a lot of meaningless games. Isn't it also meaningless to the opponent? They cared enough to drop a 5-spot on us. Maybe we should look at the matches with a bit more importance.
You think USA is going to win Copa?
I told him to lay off the crack...
That’s right. Also, I think Colombia has a ton more quality depth than the USMNT. That was a factor because these games are used to evaluate players, and in both cases, players are playing for spots on the roster and in the starting lineups.The purpose of the Colombia and Brazil matches is to prepare for Copa America.

Soccer media (whether it be ESPN or any other outlet) is the absolute worst for clickbait headlines, its a daily thing as a Liverpool fan.I'm not sure if anybody else notices this stuff, but the clickbait nature of soccer articles on ESPN particularly are worse than any other sport IMO. A headline will be something like "Ten Hag on being "convinced' he will stay at United." And then the actual quote will be something like "I'm neither convinced nor not convinced I will stay."
To say nothing of the shark infested, terrorizing water hazards
If USA gets out of the group (Bolivia, Panama, Uruguay), I would be shocked if Berhalter is sacked.Barring a minor miracle, GB is out after Copa
Can't have a squad looking this bad going into WC on our home turf
I think you're probably correct, although it's always tough to predict what other people might do, so I wouldn't bet any money on it. And, as we all know, the head coach of any sports team is, ultimately, the one responsible for the results.If USA gets out of the group (Bolivia, Panama, Uruguay), I would be shocked if Berhalter is sacked.
Even if they do not get out of the group, I don't this his dismissal is a given.
