The United States, Canada, and Mexico are the hosts of the 2026 World Cup, and it is understood that just by being there, they have an obligation to host the best World Championship tournament in their history.
However, less than three years after the start of the World Cup, which will be held in three countries for the first time and will also be played with 48 teams for the first time, their teams are not very stable, and everything starts with technical alignment.
Canada’s national team
Everyone on the Canada team was surprised when coach John Herdman, who had guided them to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, surprisingly resigned to join Major League Soccer’s Toronto FC.
Herdman, who is considered the best coach in Canada’s history, could not endure the administrative disaster in his federation, which was on the verge of bankruptcy. Canada will play Japan until October.
United States national team
The United States are champions of the Concacaf Nations League, but that doesn’t mean their national team doesn’t have problems.
After the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, coach Gregg Berhalter was separated by a scandal uncovered by the family of a player who was injured for not taking part in the World Cup but has returned….
US media pointed out that Berhalter did not communicate with the leaders of the group, nor with those who had a conflict in the dressing room, to smooth things over.
The United States will face Uzbekistan and Oman at the FIFA date in September.
Mexico national team
As for the Mexico national team, Jaime Lozano begins his journey after the Concacaf Nations League crisis and Gold Cup triumph, but without a full squad as several of his European players sign deals.
The tricolor meets Australia and Uzbekistan at the next FIFA event.
