USMNT Fans Want Coach Gregg Berhalter Thrown In Prison For Using Jordan Morris Over Gio Reyna

The 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar is officially underway and it began, as per usual, in the most galling way possible for the United States.

The USMNT is slotted in Group B alongside England, Iran and Wales. The Three Lions trounced Iran to the tune of a 6-2 win in early action before the USA took on Wales.

Tim Weah, whose father George was the world player of the year in 1995 and is the current president of Liberia, put the US ahead mid-way through the first half after a slick assist from Christian Pulisic.

The US took that lead into the halftime break. But the Welsh team didn’t go away. Instead, Wales subbed on 6-foot-5 striker Kieffer Moore for the second half and looked much more of a threat. But the USA stood resolute. That is until center back Walker Zimmerman made a foolish challenge to concede a penalty. Zimmerman slid in on Welsh star Gareth Bale, who had his back to the goal, chopping him down.

Bale then hammered home the equalizer with just under 10 minutes plus stoppage time remaining.

USMNT Fans Want Gregg Berhalter Tried For War Crimes For Not Using Gio Reyna

That left the USA and manager Gregg Berhalter quickly scrambling to find a go-ahead goal. But rather than sub on young star Gio Reyna, Berhalter opted for veteran Jordan Morris. Morris, 28, is a Major League Soccer veteran. Reyna, meanwhile, is a 20-year-old who plays for one of Germany’s top clubs, Boruissia Dortmund.

While Reyna has dealt with injuries throughout his career, he was deemed fit enough to make the team. So either he’s not healthy and shouldn’t be at the tournament, or he is and Berhalter passed him over for Morris.

Given that Reyna was on the bench, fans are absolutely furious at the USA boss.

The US has more soccer talent at its disposal than ever before. But it’s not talented enough right now to overcome gross mismanagement.
