JOHANNESBURG (AP) — The president of the U.S. Soccer Federation says the American team did not meet his expectations at the World Cup and that he likely will meet with Bob Bradley after the tournament to discuss the coach's future.
Bradley was hired in December 2006, has a contract running through the end of the year. The Americans were eliminated last weekend with a 2-1 overtime loss to Ghana in the second round of the World Cup.
USSF president Sunil Gulati said Monday that the team is capable of more, and that the players and Bradley know it. Gulati says that, at this level, "we're disappointed we didn't get to play another 90 minutes at least."
