Gregg Berhalter's position as head coach of the US Men's National Team (USMNT) is under intense scrutiny following a disastrous loss to Panama in the Copa America. The match, characterized by physicality, saw 23 fouls, 5 yellow cards, and 2 red cards. With the USMNT needing a win against Uruguay on Monday night to advance from the group stage on home soil, there are calls for Berhalter's dismissal if the team fails to progress. Prominent voices, including Alexi Lalas, have stated that Berhalter should lose his job if the USMNT does not advance. Berhalter himself has acknowledged the pressure but refrained from commenting on his job security.

Bizarre game, bad referees, whatever your assessment, the reality is this: If the #USMNT lose Monday and don’t get out of the group in a Copa América on home soil, US Soccer must move on from Gregg Berhalter.
If there's ever been a time for Gregg Berhalter to get his signature win as USMNT coach, it'll be against Uruguay for a chance to get out of the group stage. Everything up for grabs. https://t.co/mEskCpMAfb
This one rests squarely on Weah, but if the #USMNT doesn’t get through a group with Bolivia and Panama on home soil, there would be no justification for Berhalter to remain in the job. If they don’t get through, he should be fired the next day.
Well, Gregg Berhalter said the #USMNT wouldn't shy away from physicality against Panama. This game is full of it.
