Where’s the humility in United States soccer? That’s what New York City FC Sporting Director Claudio Reyna wants to know.
The US national team legend spoke to reporters for the first time since the US failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup last week. Reyna, captain of the team in the early 2000s, called out the arrogant, know-it-all soccer culture that continues to hinder any progress the national team needs to become an actual competitor internationally.
“I don’t think we have the behaviors in how we treat the sport in this country,” Reyna said on Tuesday.
