Switzerland scored four goals in the first 36 minutes

US open Gold Cup this Sunday v Trinidad & Tobago

The United States gave up four goals in the first half and looked unprepared for next year’s World Cup, as they were routed by Switzerland 4-0 in a friendly on Tuesday night. The result means the Americans lost their fourth straight game for the first time since 2007.

Dan Ndoye scored in the 13th minute, Michel Aebischer in the 23rd, Breel Embolo in the 33rd and Johan Manzambi in the 36th.

Switzerland won their third straight match and extended the USMNT’s winless streak against European opponents to eight games since 2021. Fans at Geodis Park booed loudly as the US gave up four goals by the 40th minute for the first time since 9 November 1980, at Mexico and the first time ever at home, according to Opta.
