Former USMNT player and current Canada coach Jesse Marsch said that he's 'not bitter' about not being hired to take over the USMNT from Gregg Berhalter in 2023.
Saturday's match between the United States and Canada at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City might have technically been a friendly, but there's reason to believe it was personal for former USMNT player and current Canada head coach Jesse Marsch. Canada hired Marsch as coach in May and finished fourth in the Copa América. He had interviewed in 2023 with the United States Soccer Federation before Berhalter was rehired that June.
The Canadians had been winless in 23 consecutive games against the U.S. in America since a 3-2 victory at St. Louis in a World Cup qualifier on July 6, 1957. 'I'd much rather coach Canada than the U.S. right now,' Marsch said. 'You can see the mentality that's been developed. You can see the way this team plays.
