In a time of turmoil and change for USMNT, the stars of tomorrow made history for themselves in the present with a 2-0 win over Canada in the CONCACAF Nations League. It is now twice in a row that USA have lifted the trophy and it starts a journey of three years towards the much-anticipated 2026 World Cup.
With Gregg Berhalter set to retake the reigns after helping his nation to the 2022 tournament he has been given a foundation of new winners to work with. BJ Callaghan's interim role has been completed in stellar style and a group of young, promising players are approaching a new dawn.
It was a testament to the inclusive nature and progressive spirit of the group that Folarin Balogun was able to open his account just two matches into his senior international career. After being a hot shot for England at youth level as well as trying out for USA at junior level too, his choice to side with America is already paying off.
