U.S. men's national team boss Gregg Berhalter raved about the Gio Reyna's two-goal performance in their 4-0 win against Ghana Tuesday.
After Reyna's first-half brace for the USMNT, fans were given a glimpse of what a healthy version of the 20-year-old attacking midfielder looks like on the international stage, and Berhalter was beyond impressed. The U.S. boss spoke highly of the Borussia Dortmund playmaker's performance, and echoed that it was a strong representation of his performance all window."I thought Gio was really good, perhaps a Man of the Match-type performance.
"As I said before, he had a very strong camp, a great mindset, great training sessions. To me, it's not only the offensive stuff that he did. Tonight is more of what he does and what he did off the ball. I think it was relentless work. We talked about that before the game, relentless work-rate defensively, and he certainly did that. It was a good step for us."Reyna and Berhalter's well-renowned fallout after the 2022 World Cup appears to be behind both.
It's obvious that the USMNT boss thinks highly of Reyna, and it's now up to him to continue to impress once he returns to Borussia Dortmund.The 20-year-old midfielder will return to BVB this week, with an upcoming game against Werder Bremen on Friday. The USMNT boss, meanwhile, will start preparing for his sides' Nations League quarterfinal against an opponent TBD on November 16.
