Everything we know about the Gregg controversy

The Gregg Berhalter controversy has been a hot topic in the soccer world ever since it first started during the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Gregg Berhalter, the then-coach of the US soccer team, was criticized for not playing one of the most promising talents in the squad, Gio Reyna, enough. This led to Reyna’s family being unhappy with the situation. And his mother even went as far as to blackmail Gregg with an incident that happened back in 1991.
