Coach Bob Bradley has been fired by MLS side Toronto for the second time in the Eastern Conference. On Saturday, Toronto defeated New England Revolution 2-1, triggering the change. 'Bob has been an excellent professional with Toronto FC,' and we thank him for his passion and tireless service during his time here.'

Federico Bernardeschi, a Toronto and Italy midfielder, has been warned never to smoke around the team, according to the team's announcement that he had been suspended for Saturday's match against DC United. After last weekend's loss to Austin, Bernardeschi openly attacked coach Bob Bradley, saying that the team does "need (have) a little bit more tactics... (and) an idea of how we play.' Bernardeschi has been smoking on team flights and around their training center, according to The Athletic.

The United States men's national soccer team's quadrennial aim is to reach a level beyond the World Cup's group stage. Despite the country's disappointing failure to qualify for Russia in 2018, the Americans are used to winning the World Cup for the first time since 1990. But while qualifying against Cuba and Belize has been relatively straightforward, winning World Cup matches has been much more difficult. In World Cup play, the American men are just 9-8-19.

For the first time in the franchise's brief history, the team and coach Bob Bradley decided to part ways last year. Bradley had ranked the team as one of the most exciting in MLS and gained the Supporters' Shield with a record-breaking 72 points in 2019. However, the team stumbled to a ninth-place Western Conference in 2021, and it was decided that a new cycle would begin. Former USMNT defender Steve Cherundolo, who has led the team to 64 points in his first season as well as a healthy first-place Western Conference lead, was eventually landed in the team's first MLS Cup.

On Sunday, the Kaiser Chiefs rang out round Elland Road with the familiar sound of I Predict a Riot by Leeds rockers the Kaiser Chiefs. Tyler Adams, the international midfielder for the United States, was even draped in the Stars and Stripes as players paraded around the pitch at full speed. Brenden Aaronson, a countryman who nicked the opening goal, was one of Leeds' standout performers. Jack Harrison, who immigrated to the United States when he was 14 and stayed there until he was 21, also set up the second and scored the third.

Brenden Aaronson made Premier League history by becoming the first American player to play for an American coach in the league's history. Leeds's 21-year-old began scoring after stealing the ball from Chelsea's goalkeeper Edouard Mendy before turning the ball over to an empty net.
