Nashville, Tennessee — Wetin dey happen for U.S. soccer? Na wah! Last night, dem run am with Switzerland for friendly match, and it be like dem never chop well. Dem collect four goals for first half alone, make e total 4-0 loss. E no be small matter as dis is the first time since 2007 say dem don lose four consecutive matches.
As fans gather for Geodis Park, dem no get any chill. Di boo from di stands fit make anybody faint. Na so di Americans suffer four goals inside 40 minutes, wey plenti people talk say na di first time since 1980 dis kind wahala don happen. Swiss guys sabi how to play, even dem do am in style.
Goals come from Ndoye, Manzambi, Aebischer, and Embolo – all these guys just dey score like say na easy-peasy matter. Look e, America don face European teams eight times since 2021 and na wahala dem dey receive. For those wey dey support di U.S. team, I sabi say una dey vex like pepper soup wey no hot no more.
Defender wey no wan call im name talk say e too easy to just look one match and say everything dey finish. But come to think of am, remember when dem beat Morocco 3-0 before di 2022 World Cup? See, ting don change plenty, so una no go throway di baby with bath water, abeg.
Di match dey play just one day after dem mark one year before di big 2026 World Cup wey U.S. go co-host. Di manager, Mauricio Pochettino, don try shuffle di lineup well well but e no work. Na wah o! Nine changes he make and di results still dey show say dem no fit gel well.
Now, di Americans’ next tussle go be against Trinidad and Tobago for di Concacaf Gold Cup. No be say dem dey lose hope, but dem gatz step up dem game sharp-sharp or na wah for dem. I dey hear say dem don dey win group for Gold Cup plenty times, so dem gatz show style. If dem fit turn dis wahala around, dat go fit cool di fans wey dey vex like tiger.
Pochettino get faith say di fans go still show face for Gold Cup and di World Cup. “Una see am, di fans go follow di team come hell or high water,” he talk. As e be so, U.S. soccer fans start to dey pray pass dem wey no get sense. Abeg, let’s see how di next game go be; maybe e go change di story.
