'We want to get into that knockout stage... If we can keep advancing, we'll play anyone.' Hear from USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter in his own words ahead of today's match against Iran. FIFAWorldCup
Everything is magnified at the World Cup, that's the beautiful thing about it. The intensity, every play and its outcome is enhanced. Such small things can make such a big difference.
He galvanized the group and got the whole team pulling in one direction. I think that was a big part of our success in 2002. But as a coach, you also need to be your authentic self, and that is when you can get your best work. If you're trying to be someone else, it becomes challenging.Patrick T. Fallon/AFP/Getty
They may not feel the pressure, they may just go out and"do" rather than think about doing it. A big part of it is just going to be that first experience the guys have, and then how quickly they understand what the World Cup really is. When that first whistle blows against Wales in our opening group stage match it will be the first minute these guys have ever been on a field during a World Cup.
That's all I really care about. If we can do that, I'm confident we can be successful. And if we're not successful and we don't happen to go through in a game then we can walk off the field with our heads held high. We haven't achieved our vision of changing the way American soccer is viewed around the world; it's not complete. The only way that it will be complete is a strong performance at the 2022 World Cup. That's the starting point.
