Free Gio?
Gio Reyna’s status varies from match-to-match. Fans expecting him to start and become the immediate game-changer he’s expected to be have been let down as he only appeared once in the group stage.

“A lot of it comes down to timing and circumstance,” Berhalter said this week. “If you look at how the games have unfolded, we’ve had the lead then had to hold onto the lead later in games. The only game that we didn’t have that scenario, we actually put him in to help get the victory.”
