Gregg Berhalter has been reappointed as the US men’s national team head coach, following a tumultuous exit from the organization when his contract expired after the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Homophobic chanting from fans which halted the CONCACAF Nations League semi-final between Mexico and the United States in Las Vegas has been “strongly condemned” by the region’s governing body. CONCACAF, the North and Central America and Caribbean football confederation, criticised the actions of some supporters during Thursday’s match and said it will issue a further statement after reviewing reports from the match official and security. Referee Ivan Barton, who had already sent off four players – including Leeds midfielder Weston McKennie – had halted play in the 90th minute at the Allegiant Stadium when the chant was first heard. Despite bringing the players back for an additional 12 minutes the referee ended the game with four minutes still to play after USA goalkeeper Matt Turner was targeted again. USA were leading 3-0 at the time, with Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic netting either side of half-time before Ricardo Pepi added a third in the 78th minute. “CONCACAF strongly condemns the discriminatory chanting by some fans during the 2023 CONCACAF Nations League semi-final match between Mexico and the United States,” said a statement. “Chants heard during the game led to the activation of the anti-discrimination protocol by the match officials. “Additionally, security staff ejected several fans for engaging in unacceptable behaviour in the stadium. “These incidents were extremely disappointing and tarnished what should have been a positive occasion to showcase high-quality football in our region. “The confederation is in the process of urgently establishing further details and reports from security and match officials and will make a further statement in short order.” In January, Mexico were fined £84,000 by FIFA for anti-gay chants by fans at two matches. “In terms of the chant, I want to make it very clear first and foremost, for our beliefs and our culture, it has no place in the game,” United States coach BJ Callaghan told a press conference.
