USA Won't Win The World Cup? They Let A $100M Kid Walk Away
from The Football Show · host Break FC & BIZBROS
Happy Father's Day, fam. We're back at The Block and the World Cup is going crazy. Messi just took the World Cup scoring record... at almost 39, playing the full 90, with even the Austria fans clapping him off. The man refuses to age. Then Lamine Yamal scores his first World Cup goal 14 days younger than Messi did... the torch is getting chased, not passed. Cape Verde? First World Cup ever and they go toe to toe with Uruguay for a 2-2. I get into the heritage "sell-out" debate and how eligibility actually works. Bielsa goes off on FIFA's four quarters (and the water-break lie). And yeah... we said the USA won't win this World Cup, and the comments lost it. I explain why, including a kid named Yann Diomande the system let walk to Europe. Plus the Coca-Cola woman who supposedly won every World Cup for life.
