On the morning of July 2nd, the United States Men’s National Team, hosting the Copa America, suffered a 0-1 loss to Uruguay, ultimately failing to advance out of the group stage. After the game, US head coach Gregg Berhalter spoke about his thoughts on the match.
Berhalter said, “After the game, seeing the faces of the guys in the locker room, the disappointment, and the pain and the sorrow from the staff, we know that we could have done better in this tournament, but we didn’t.”
“With the passionate fans in the stands and the high level of competition, we should have done better. We’ll do a good review and figure out what went wrong. Right now, it’s just a hollow feeling.”
“At the highest level of competition, success and failure are often separated by a thin line. We didn’t perform anywhere near what we’re capable of. We know we could have done better. We believe in this team, but this is the result.”
Finally, when asked if he was still the right man to lead the team, Berhalter responded, “Yes.”
