Ladies and gentlemen, the Mauricio Pochettino era of U.S. soccer is officially underway, and guess what?
But lets not be buzzkills here.
Weve seen U.S. teams struggle against way worse opponents.
Remember that time we lost to Trinidad & Tobago and missed the World Cup?
Yeah, lets not go down that memory lane again.
There was a lot of curiosity about how Poch would line up the squad.
Would he throw in some spicy tactics?
Its early days, but you could tell Pochettinos influence is already kicking in.
Most importantly, the boys actually looked like they wanted to be on the pitch.
Everyone was running, pressing, and passing the ball like they had something to prove.
And more importantly, it feels like theres hope again.
Next up, weve got bigger challenges, tomorrow night we play our amigos across the border.
But for now, lets enjoy this rare moment of competence.
A lot more to go.
But for the first time in a while, I feel pretty good about where were headed.
Poch, you beautiful man, welcome to the world of American soccer.
