2018 USMNT World Cup
2018 US World Cup logo as envisioned by the creators of Howler Magazine.
They offered this patch to anyone who subscribes to the magazine, so they could place this patch on any jersey to create their own nonexistent US Men's World Cup jersey.
The US Men's National Team lost to Trinidad and Tobago, 2-1 in the elimination round that knocked them out of the World Cup. The nUS had their chances, especially in the final minutes, when a Clint Dempsey shot hit the woodwork. A goal that would have tied the game and sent the US to the competition. But it did not happen. A result that is embarrassing to any fan of the USMNT, as the team has shown little improvement over the years.
At least we can still poke a little fun at ourselves...
