Copa America is here as CONMEBOL and Concacaf will join forces for the first time since 2016. In that edition, Chile won over Argentina, but a lot has changed since then.

Qualifying for the knockout stages of Copa America just got a lot harder as U.S. men's national team winger Tim Weah was red-carded in only the 17th minute of play vs. Panama on Thursday in a game the Americans lost 2-1.

It's the first time a USMNT player was sent off in a major tournament since Michael Orozco in the third-placed game of the 2016 Copa America but it follows Sergino Dest's nations league red card in levels of poor decisions.

“I mean, this one hurts, obviously,” Lalas said just moments after Panama scored in the 83rd minute to take home a victory over the United States on home soil in Atlanta. “But there’s a strange part of me that said, ‘You...
