The U.S. men’s national team unveiled its press room ahead of the World Cup in Qatar, and the team is choosing to outwardly support the LGBTQ community with its design, which features the U.S. Soccer crest in rainbow colors.
“When we’re on the global stage, and when we’re in a venue like Qatar, it’s important to highlight these issues, and that’s what ‘Be the Change’ is about,” USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter said, via Reuters. “Not only in the United States, we want to highlight social issues but also abroad. We recognize that Qatar has made progress, and a lot of progress has been made, but there is still work to be done.”
