US Soccer crisis deepens as top team officials quit

U.S. soccer president Cindy Parlow Cone says the departure of two top national team officials has created a 'clean canvas'.

MIAMI: The United States men's national football team, already without a permanent coach, was plunged further into turmoil on Thursday with both the federation's Sporting Director and the national team General Manager quitting their jobs.

Sporting Director Earnie Stewart is leaving to join Dutch club PSV Eindhoven and General Manager Brian McBride has stood down from his role, US Soccer said.
