The USMNT is riding high after a statement-making World Cup opener against Paraguay, but there's no time to relax with Australia next on the schedule. Meghan Klingenberg and David Gass break down what made the U.S. performance so special, the challenges Australia presents, and why Tim Ream's leadership could be crucial as the tournament rolls on.
Then Meghan sits down with Ream to discuss the emotions of playing a World Cup on home soil, the message he shared with the team before kickoff, how he keeps performing at 38 years old, and why building Legos might be the secret to longevity.
Plus, USWNT defender Tierna Davidson joins the show from Brazil for a thoughtful conversation about Pride Month, representation, allyship, and the importance of visibility in soccer and beyond.
All that, plus Psychic Animal Predictions, Ask the Pros, and more on the U.S. Soccer Podcast, presented by Henkel.
