Team USA - English
The United States national team is going through a terrible time, accumulating worrying negative results, even for a day of friendly matches against top teams
The main concern of the fans is that the team does not seem to be improving and Pochettino’s style of play does not seem to be reflected in the players. Now, with the start of the 2025 Gold Cup just around the corner, fans fear that another failure in the tournament will be confirmed and that Mexico, its biggest rival in the region, will win another trophy.

What happened to the United States national team?
The North American team suffered a heavy defeat against Switzerland, with a score of 4-0, a result that also implies a historic negative record, as it is the first time in almost 50 years that they have conceded four goals in less than 40 minutes. This had not happened since November 9, 1980, in Mexico, and it is also the first time it has happened on home soil, revealed OptaJack.
This is a clear reflection of the moments of uncertainty experienced by Mauricio Pochettino’s side. In just four minutes, the Swiss won 4-0 and managed the game until the end, without allowing the Americans any reaction.
With goals from Dan Ndoye, Michael Aebischer, Breel Embolo and Johan Manzambi, a historic thrashing was consummated in record time. However, it should be clarified that the Swiss national team has shown a surprising level also against other teams in the area, as the Mexican national team was also thrashed with four goals, although the Mexicans responded by scoring two goals, making the defeat more decent.
As if that were not enough, the team coached by Mauricio Pochettino had just suffered another defeat against the Turkey national team with a score of 2-1. It was a match with an unbeatable start for the North Americans with a goal in the first minute by Jack McGlynn, but in a few minutes the Turkish national team reacted with goals from Arda Guler and Karem Arkurkoglu in the 24th and 27th minutes respectively.
When does the 2025 Gold Cup start?
The Gold Cup will kick off on Saturday, June 14, with the match between Mexico and the Dominican Republic, while the U.S. team will face Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday, June 15
Who is the favorite to win the Gold Cup?
A few days before the tournament begins, it seems that the favorite is the Mexican national team, which without showing dazzling soccer achieved better results in friendly matches against Switzerland and Turkey. In addition, it will be able to count on all its stars, unlike the United States, which presents a depleted squad due to the absence of several key players.

Ja’Marr Chase Questionable for Bengals vs. Packers With Illness
After logging two full practices, Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase's Week 6 status is now in question after the All-Pro missed Friday's session.Chase is listed as questionable for Sunday's road game against the Green Bay Packers due to an undisclosed illness, according Bengals head coach Zac Taylor. While it remains to be seen if Chase takes the field, the 25-year-old WR's status will certainly be worth monitoring entering the weekend. Should he miss the game, Cincinnati won't have the opportunity to see how he meshes with new acquisition, quarterback Joe Flacco.Instead, Flacco, acquired from the Browns on Tuesday, will see his quick transition into Cincy's QB1 as a chance to find chemistry with wideout Tee Higgins, running back Chase Brown and the rest of his new offense.Chase leads the team after five games in receptions and targets (32/45), receiving […]
