Gio Reyna scored another winning goal for Dortmund and fans proceeded to crush Gregg Berhalter

Berhalter favored MLS players over him.

The U.S. men’s national team is over a month removed from its Round of 16 run at the World Cup, but the drama surrounding the team and program was really just beginning.

By now, you probably heard about the “blackmail” scandal involving (potentially former) USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter and Gio Reyna. The saga stemmed from Berhalter revealing he almost sent an unnamed player home due to attitude issues in Qatar after that player was told of a limited role before the tournament. That player was Reyna, and Reyna’s parents were so upset about it that they went to U.S. Soccer officials to tell them Berhalter kicked a woman — who he would later marry — in an altercation around 30 years ago. The USSF is investigating the accusations and has yet to name a new, full-time head coach even though Berhalter remains a candidate.

Reyna has since returned to Borussia Dortmund and has been forced to deal with the distractions that his parents created. But if Reyna was ever going to reinforce the argument that Berhalter doesn’t deserve to be retained, scoring a pair of game-winning goals in a few days would certainly do the trick.

After scoring a brilliant game winner against Augsburg on Sunday, Reyna gave Dortmund another win with a late goal in stoppage time on Wednesday.

This is a player who Berhalter decided would have a limited role before the World Cup even started. Not that Reyna’s talent was ever in doubt, but Berhalter’s decision looked even worse Wednesday with this latest goal.
