The number four was not kind to the United States men's national team on Tuesday night at Nashville's Geodis Park. The short-handed Americans gave up four goals in the first half to Switzerland and were handed their fourth straight loss in the process.

The USMNT have struggled against top opposition in the past, but with Pochettino having his longest camp overseeing this squad, it will be a chance to instill tactics that can be used to topple European giants.

Pochettino's team came in to the game on the back of a loss to Türkiye over the weekend—a third consecutive loss in all competitions for the USMNT at the time. Switzerland posed a different, yet just as difficult challenge as the Argentine looked to get his team ready for the Concacaf Gold Cup.
