The Americans Abroad Five: The 'regulars' strike back In the first weekend of club play after the November window, several missing USMNT "regulars" delivered a timely message.

looking back on the weekend for Americans Abroad, when the "regulars" showed why they are regulars.

You do have to wonder if a healthy Hershfelt gets to this ball before Lavelle

USMNT Stock Up, Stock Down – and a bit on what Mauricio Pochettino's goal has been all along.

per the U.S. embassy in Haiti:

"Nationals of these countries may still submit visa applications and attend scheduled interviews, but they may be determined to be ineligible for visa issuance or admission to the United States."

Haiti is the second team (after Iran) to qualify for the World Cup after being included in Trump's June travel ban.

Haiti and Curaçao in the World Cup I’m crying right now this is incredible

if there's one thing we've learned tonight it's that the USMNT has a lot of quality CMs (Timmy Tillman is even looking like a WC option!) and Poch is going to have a real hard time cutting that group down

July 19th, 2026, MetLife stadium:

Gio Reyna coolly finishes a Sebastian Berhalter through ball in the 109th minute. They embrace while a flock of pure white doves flies across the stadium.

A few months later, total world peace is achieved and humanity begins to leave for the stars

my semi-hot take is that Freese hasn't actually been that great for the USMNT. He's been adequate but has also shown the propensity for major blunders. This is not a great position for the USMNT!

Poch was very complimentary of Tillman before the Paraguay game and the LAFC midfielder is showing out tonight

Seb Berhalter can strike a ball. Done it more than a few times in MLS this season

MLS executive who built a powerhouse faced allegations of sexist, racist and homophobic behavior Philadelphia Union sporting director Ernst Tanner denies the allegations, which prompted a recently-concluded MLS investigation that could not corroborate them

NEW: Ernst Tanner has built a powerhouse at the Philadelphia Union.

But my @us.theguardian.com investigation has shown wide-ranging allegations of misbehavior throughout his 7-year tenure.

Tanner denies the allegations, and was investigated by MLS this year.

World Cup games aren't going to be moved and we don't have to take this seriously every time you know who says something about it

Reyna grateful to Pochettino for starting opportunity vs. Paraguay It was far from a given that Gio Reyna would start Saturday's friendly against Paraguay. But the playmaker too advantage of his chance.

Gio Reyna made the most of his chance last night, but he knew that chance wouldn't have come without the trust of his manager

'That's what it means to be a team' - USMNT hails fighting spirit after Paraguay brawl Mauricio Pochettino wants his U.S. men's national team to show fight on the pitch. Sometimes, that idea can turn literal.

anyone know how to say stepover in spanish???

Pochettino says that Reyna still needs to get more playing time for his club but was a "nightmare" for Paraguay tonight

look at Gio getting back to make a key tackle inside his own box we do love to see it folks

Max Arfsten and the stepover, a continuing love story

Lots of red white and blue here — a lot of it for Paraguay

i can pass for one if needed

love a good goal off a defensive set piece

imo U.S. youth international teams should stop playing Morocco in knockout rounds of tournaments

look I’m at soccer practice
