The lack of depth in defense for the USMNT poses a significant concern following Dest's injury.

State of Play
  • Potential replacements like Chris Richards and Tim Weah bring different skills to the right back position.
  • Berhalter faces the challenge of reshuffling his back line and adjusting his playstyle if Dest is unable to play.
What's Next

Berhalter will need to strategize tactical adjustments and optimize available options to mitigate the impact of Dest's absence on the team's performance in upcoming matches.

Bottom Line

Dest's injury will not only test USMNT's depth but also challenge Berhalter to make tactical decisions to ensure the team's success in the Copa America.
