Question: did the usa soccer team qualify for the world cup

Answer: No, Following consecutive losses to Mexico and Costa Rica in the opening games of the final round of qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Klinsmann was removed as national team coach and technical director and replaced by previous U.S. manager Bruce Arena. World Cup qualification resumed on March 24, 2017, where Arena and his team had a record 6--0 win over Honduras. Four days later, the team traveled to Panama City, drawing Panama 1--1. After beating Trinidad and Tobago 2--0, the U.S. got their third ever result in World Cup Qualification at the Estadio Azteca when they drew 1--1 against Mexico. In July 2017, the U.S. won their sixth CONCACAF Gold Cup with a 2--1 win over Jamaica in the final. Following an agonizing 2-1 defeat to Trinidad and Tobago on October 10, 2017, the U.S. failed to qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, missing the tournament for the first time since 1990. On October 13, 2017, Bruce Arena resigned. Many pundits and analysts called this the worst result and worst performance in the history of the national team.
