US men’s soccer fails to qualify for Tokyo Olympics
The United States men’s soccer team fell to Honduras 2–1 on Sunday and failed to qualify for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. The men’s under-23 team has not qualified for an Olympics since 2008 in Beijing.
The disappointing loss for the U.S. was made all the more painful by an embarrassing goal that came when Honduras took a 2–0 lead in the 47th minute.
