“Not too many opportunities can happen in your career a size of Manchester United,” Pochettino said. He choked up praising the U.S. program, but couldn't spin leaving three months into a new contract.

Ertz was as essential to the USWNT's 2015 and 2019 World Cup titles as all the star attackers. She was surprised with the honor by her husband Zach and their sons at the Eagles' practice facility.

The Philadelphia Union star is a long shot to win it, but much more likely to win the other prize he’s up for, Young Player of the Year. Ryan Richter did not make the coach of the year finalists.

“He’s already set a good foundation,” midfielder Sebastian Berhalter said. “If he’s the coach, we’re going to keep doing that, and if not, we’re going to keep doing that.”

Qatar is currently under a U.S. State Department Level 3 Travel Advisory. Among the players on the U.S. team is Union striker Malik Jakupović, who will now be back with the club for the playoffs.

The final one of five in 2026, which included the month-long men’s World Cup, will see five of the team’s starters away for the week as they prepare for a pair of international matches.

"Being able to do both sides of it, being elite with the ball and then working hard off the ball, is an incredible recipe for a great player," defender and team leader Antonee Robinson said.

When Pierre was younger, he wanted to emulate McKenzie's Supporters Shield triumph. McKenzie has watched Pierre's rise, and knows how much potential there is.

The win in the regular season finale clinched sixth place in the Eastern Conference. The rest of the day’s results set up a first-round playoff series against New England to start between Nov. 20-24.

Four other games will have impacts on the Union's potential path in the playoffs. But the first priority is beating Toronto and snapping a four-game winless skid.

“It’s really full-circle to get the chance to play with some of the guys I’ve looked up to all my life,” the Union’s teen phenom said about teaming up with the U.S. men’s team’s biggest star.

The Union’s Neil Pierre, Wayne’s Matt Freese, Media’s Auston Trusty, and Chester native George Campbell also made the squad for this month’s Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals.

The teen phenom is No. 6 among MLS players this year, the first spot behind the league’s big international stars: Lionel Messi, Son Heung-Min, Thomas Müller, Robert Lewandowski, and Antoine Griezmann.

It is no secret that this was a while in coming, as the team's longtime captain has spoken for a few years about seeing the end on the horizon. Now it has arrived, and on his terms.

By the time Gianni Infantino’s American assignment is over, FIFA will have paid about $4 million of his taxes.

For as much as the scoreboard renders the final verdict, Richter wasn’t entirely wrong to say his team played the better soccer in Saturday’s 1-0 loss at FC Cincinnati.
