Tim Weah's Suspension Alters USMNT's Nations League Quest

American winger Tim Weah will miss the first leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal due to his suspension for punching Panama's Roderick Miller.

American winger Tim Weah will be sidelined for the first leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal in November, missing out due to the second match of his two-game suspension for an altercation with Panama's Roderick Miller during the Copa America.

Weah observed the first game of his suspension from the stands as the United States suffered a 1-0 defeat to Uruguay, resulting in their elimination. The U.S. Soccer Federation confirmed on Tuesday that Weah will serve the remainder of his suspension in the upcoming CONCACAF Nations League match, opponent yet to be determined.

Despite the setback, Weah will be eligible for upcoming friendlies in September and October. The U.S. is set to face Canada on September 7 in Kansas City, Kansas, and New Zealand three days later in Cincinnati. The October schedule includes a match against Panama in Austin, Texas, on the 12th and another friendly three days later, with the opponent and location still to be announced.
