"I preach the team about just one game at a time, sticking to the process, doing the small things, doing the process-orientated things and the results will come," Berhalter said on Saturday. "For us it's really just doing what we do." While that painful chapter will linger in the back of the mind for fans heading into the final stretch of qualification, Berhalter told reporters he was tamping down nerves among his players by urging them to stay "in the moment."
After Sunday's clash, the U.S. hit the road for their final qualifier away to Costa Rica on Wednesday.
