We’re catching up on some topics and preparing for an important election in American football.
We are back with Episode 123 as we revisit some topics from last week!
THE USMNT opened 2024 with a loss to Slovenia last weekend, but it was a chance for fans to see the future since several players on the roster could be at the Olympics this summer. We quickly discuss the players and how the January camp can serve as a potential stepping stone to the full national team for the players.
For the USWNT, The SheBelieves Cup will now take place in April, and it will be a mini tournament. Brazil, Canada and Japan will once again join the USWNT as the semifinals take place in Atlanta and Columbus hosts the final and 3rd place matches. In another busy year for the USWNT, the SheBelieves Cup once again brings quality competition.
After the break, Sam Mewis announced his retirement last week as his knee injury proved too serious to return to the field. We pay tribute to one of the most dynamic and dominant midfielders America has ever produced. We will really miss her on the field.
Finally, US Soccer will hold an election to serve as vice president at its annual general meeting in early February. We’ll have interviews with each of U.S. Soccer’s vice presidential candidates: Nathan Goldberg and Dr. Pete Zopfi. Mike Cullina, who was a candidate before dropping out of the race last week, also agreed to come on the show to answer questions and speak directly about fan issues and topics important to us. If you have a question for candidates, submit it on our Google form!
