Weak nation- go play baseball
Weak nation- go play baseball
Neither is Italy, a 4 time World Cup Champion
Neither is Holland, a 3 time finalist (and went to the semis in 2014)
Your point is?
The USA is NOT a soccer powerhouse on the world stage.
Point is you Americans are weak and obese nation. You good for nothing
Soccer is the sport of third world countries.

Obese yes but not weak. We spend an abused amount on military so politicians can pretend to be patriotic.
It is a disgrace US didn’t make it but Russia only qualified since they are hosting.
go play baseball, or literally every other sport on the planet because the USA is the greatest.
Strong nation but just not good at playing soccer. We've never even had one great player on the world stage. The MLS is a step in the right direction but until they adopt a Sept - May schedule like the rest of the world it will still be a backwater league.
At least soccer gave us Galen Rupp and many other men and women runners.

Rupp gave up soccer at 14 when he was "discovered" by Salazar. He was never a soccer star.
We have the world series. The only important worldcup

What about distance running?
This is considered in America a professional athlete
It's kinda ironic that you're laughing at American sports yet call yourself "Communistman", given that American sports are set up on a communist basis...
Qualifying for the world cup in CONCACAF is not easy.
To qualify for the world cup the USA had to play semi-professional players from Trinidad & Tobago, and the USA put in a brave display before ultimately losing 2-1.
There is no shame in losing to semi-professional island nations or finishing below powerhouses like Panama.
I have a strong feeling the USA will qualify for the 2026 world cup without any problems.

Where did I ever say that Galen Rupp was a soccer star? I only stated that he was playing soccer before he found running. Reading comprehension is a good thing, you should try it some time.
