United States national team’s Sunday win means big rankings jump
Following an impressive 1-0 extra time win over Mexico in the CONCACAF Gold Cup Final, the United States national team is expected to make an equally impressive jump up the FIFA World Rankings. It is yet another sign of the growth of the national team under head coach Gregg Berhalter.
