2:0 against Panama
Victory on debut: Pochettino celebrates as US team boss
Mauricio Pochettino celebrated a successful debut as head coach of the United States soccer team, leading the team to a 2-0 victory over Panama on Saturday (local time).
The Americans struggled for a long time in Austin and missed several chances. However, AC Milan professional Yunus Musah (49) and Ricardo Pepi (94) scored in the second half to give their new coach a positive start.
Now arch-rivals await
Argentinian Pochettino was appointed last month as the successor to Gregg Berhalter, who was sacked after the team's early exit from the Copa America 2024. He is expected to lead the team to a successful home World Cup in 2026 and surprise the soccer world. The first tough test in this endeavor awaits on Tuesday in Guadalajara with a match against arch-rivals Mexico.
