Berhalter selected Colorado Rapids’ versatile midfielder Kelly Acosta, along with Colorado Real Soccer Club alumni and Belgium’s Club Brugge goalkeeper Ethan Horvath. The final 23 were selected from a 40-player provisional roster that included Colorado Rapids left back Sam Vines.

United States men’s national team head coach Gregg Berhalter finally released the 23-man roster for the CONCACAF Nations League.
His decision was not an easy one this year as this tournament stands as the last opportunity for the players to unite before 2022 World Cup qualifiers begin.
Though other nations will use the CONCACAF Gold Cup as preparations for World Cup-related matches, the United States won’t enjoy that luxury. Berhalter explained that since the core of the US national team plays in Europe, individuals will not be called up and instead enjoy a much needed break.

I don’t think one of these has been posted in a while and the last few days have been pretty good for the USMNT, so I thought now was as good of a time as any. Usually there are at least a handful of people interested.
One cool stat, as of 5 days ago, is that in the top 5 leagues of Europe, the United States is:
- 5th in minutes played u20 players (ahead of Italy, one of the countries that has a top 5 league)
- 6th in minutes played by u21 players
