## Resource

Sebastian Berhalter is proving he belongs on the World Cup stage, delivering a commanding 76-minute performance in the USMNT’s 3-2 win over Senegal — earning raves from coach Mauricio Pochettino, who called him a “monster” for his relentless professionalism. As one of just three MLS players to start and the only one not substituted at halftime, Berhalter’s stamina and impact are undeniable. His rise from a breakout MLS season to a pivotal role in the national team is fueled by an unmatched work ethic so intense Pochettino has to remind him to rest. With the USMNT’s final World Cup roster decision looming against Germany, Berhalter’s consistency, leadership, and elite-level play make him a cornerstone of the squad heading into the tournament.
