USMNT Vs Colombia: The problem with U.S. sports culture

The US Men’s National Team returned to action earlier in October. Hosting Colombia on Thursday night, the USMNT looked to again challenge the might of the South Americans on home soil. It didn’t go to plan.

The match may have been tied at 2-2 midway through the second half, but Colombia were much the better team, eventually running out comfortable 4-2 victors.

They had 62.3% of the possession, out-shot the U.S. 17 to five, forced Zach Steffen into two saves, while not making a single one themselves, and could have scored far more than the four that they did.
