That’s currently 4th best behind Netherlands, Brazil, and Argentina.

I’m 56 & it’s the 1st time on this planet that I feel we have the talent and skill to do something significant. For decades if we made it this far, it felt like we were playing with house money and once we walk away it was a pat on the back, these guys, they’ve got their eyes on the prize.

And in dominating fashion, without the best player in the squad. We haven't even seen them play their best soccer yet.

We are significantly more dangerous when pulisic is on the field. Chris Richards had a few nervy moments yesterday, but outside of that, I can’t find much to complain about.

The United States Men's National Team (USMNT) has not advanced to the knockout round in 4 consecutive World Cup appearances.

Their recent tournament appearances and progression results include:

2026 World Cup: Advanced to the knockout stage (clinched top of Group D after beating Australia).
2022 World Cup: Advanced to the Round of 16.
2018 World Cup: Failed to qualify.
2014 World Cup: Advanced to the Round of 16.
2010 World Cup: Advanced to the Round of 16.

Because the U.S. missed the tournament in 2018, their current streak of consecutive knockout stage appearances is two.

Do you know what appearances means. I didn’t say 4 consecutive WCs.

I guess I'll just have to live with topping the group in current day rather than living 8 years in the past. What a bummer.

Can you imagine the type of person who would run something through AI to argue semantics on tigerdroppings?

Just FWIW, NED also didn't qualify in 2018

I had no teams to root for

Ask ai if the United States has ever missed a World Cup after securing qualification.
