Soccer insider Paul Tenorio joins Joe Rose to break down the biggest storylines from the World Cup, including the impact the tournament could have on growing the sport in the United States. Tenorio discusses Christian Pulisic’s disappointing performance and why the USMNT star missed a major opportunity to cement himself as the greatest American soccer player ever. He also breaks down Spain eliminating France, today’s semifinal matchup between England and Argentina featuring stars like Lionel Messi, Harry Kane, and Jude Bellingham, and why the U.S. failed to take the next step on the global stage. Tenorio explains why some of the blame falls on the development system and MLS, and why investing more resources into youth soccer is crucial for the future of American soccer.
