The USA soccer team has participated in ten FIFA World Cups, including the inaugural tournament in 1930, where they advanced to the semifinals and finished third behind Argentina and Uruguay. They qualified for the following five World Cups (seven consecutive appearances (1990-2014), a feat shared with only seven other teams). They emerged as one of the tournament's regular participants and frequently made it to the knockout stage. Strangely, the American men's national soccer squad has never claimed a World Cup victory. The team has never even made it to the championship finals.
Since the USA will be one of the three host nations in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, along with Canada and Mexico, the US football team has been guaranteed a spot in the next tournament.

Though England is the favorite, the Americans know their players and match up well against them. They won’t be in a shadow of fear at all; which might not have been the case had they drawn another Pot 1 side like Belgium or Brazil. Despite not making it in 2018, the United States team made it to Round 16 in 2010 and 2014. This year's World Cup will mark the first time since 2014 that the American team has qualified for the competition. The USA is going to the FIFA tournament this fall after losing to Costa Rica 2-0 on the final night of qualification. The team's disappointment in 2018, when they did not qualify for the tournament, drove their determination to earn a position in the 2022 tournament.
