After failing to advance out of the Copa America group stage, USMNT dropped from No. 11 to No. 16 in FIFA rankings, the lowest since October 2022.
USMNT's poor results led to a 34.77-point reduction by FIFA, the fourth-largest drop among 210 national teams, based on the Elo Model factors like team strength and match importance.
Panama's surprising performance at Copa America saw them move up eight spots to No. 35, while Canada also jumped to No. 40 after reaching the semifinals.
Following USMNT's disappointing display, manager Gregg Berhalter lost his job, prompting US Soccer to search for a new leader ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
