Yes, the U.S. Missing the World Cup Is a Complete Disaster
A haphazard CONCACAF performance came to a crushing end with a 2-1 loss to Trinidad and Tobago. Despite the best efforts of Christian Pulisic, the Americans have failed to qualify for the first time since 1986
The thing to know about CONCACAF’s World Cup qualifying is that it’s the easiest of any region in the world. For a semidecent national team—which, say, the United States purports itself to be—the Hexagonal qualifying structure, by which three teams out of six automatically reach the World Cup and the fourth-place finisher reaches an intercontinental playoff, offers a seemingly unlimited number of chances to mess up, freak out, and then recover to still play in the greatest athletic tournament in the world.
On Tuesday night, after nearly a year of such embarrassing emotional ups and downs, the United States men’s national team finally ran out of opportunities in its most embarrassing moment yet. The U.S. lost, 2-1, to Trinidad and Tobago. For the first time since 1986, the country won’t compete in the next World Cup. The latest national men’s soccer fiasco is the most acute, and disastrous, in decades, maybe ever.
To be clear, the United States did not play like a team on the verge of a real World Cup run for any of the qualifying cycle. A dream result in Russia in 2018 would have had the team advancing past the round of 16, where it had stalled in each of the past two tournaments, but for most of the Hex, the roster’s quality didn’t befit a World Cup qualifier, let alone quarterfinalist. The U.S. lost games, plural, at home. It lost 4-0 in Costa Rica—the country’s worst defeat in a qualifier since 1980—and didn’t defeat a single team twice. In both the 2010 and 2014 qualification cycles, the U.S. won the Hex, with three draws and four losses total across the two tournaments; it matched those totals with three draws and four losses in the 2018 cycle alone.
