World Cup 2026: USMNT’s odds took a stunning hit after Tuesday’s roster reveal
The US Men's National Team revealed their roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, generating significant attention. However, oddsmakers responded negatively, lowering the team's chances of winning from 80/1 to 100/1. Key concerns include a lack of depth in the midfield and pressure on star player Christian Pulisic, who has not scored in his last 24 matches.
- ▪The USMNT roster reveal included 26 players, with some expected names and a few surprises.
- ▪Oddsmakers decreased the USMNT's odds to win the World Cup after the roster announcement.
- ▪Manager Mauricio Pochettino's decision to omit a midfielder raised eyebrows, leaving the team thin in that area.
