In football terms, the men’s department of the United States Soccer federation was once seen as an exciting underdog, with fledgling popularity and a lack of resources and professionals.
But those who were there, would die for the flag on the pitch. This is no longer the case.
This video is not about piling onto the misery of USMNT supporters.
This one is more about diving into the whacky, convoluted, often times impressive, yet frequently comical history of the United States Men’s National Team.

07:52 - Wilderness
13:33 - Always The Underdog
