United States midfielder Giovanni Reyna took to Instagram on Monday to call reports of him nearly being sent home from the World Cup "highly fictionalized," adding he was disappointed that details regarding his participation in Qatar were not kept "in house."
On Sunday, comments by manager Gregg Berhalter made at a conference last Tuesday came out revealing that Reyna showed a lack of effort at training and in a pre-World Cup friendly and was asked to apologize to the team for his behavior in the days leading up to the tournament.
