The United States women’s national team will soon be under new leadership as coach Vlatko Andonovski resigned from his post on Wednesday.

Andonovski started his role with USWNT in 2019, taking over that October after the team had won the FIFA Women’s World Cup that July.

However, America’s earlier-than-expected exit from this year’s World Cup put Andonovski on the hot seat as the USWNT had been expected to seriously push for a three-peat.

Now, USWNT will search for a replacement and attempt to rebound for the 2027 Women’s World Cup.

While it’s not all on Andonovski that the USWNT lost in the Round of 16 this year, the team’s lackluster performance looks to have fueled his exit.
