Rebecca Lowe on World Cup with Zlatan, Alexi & Henry + the NEW face of U.S. Soccer

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are joined by the legendary Rebecca Lowe to go behind the curtain on the 2026 FIFA World Cup studio production alongside Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimović! Rebecca breaks down her favorite memories from this summer, the English perspective on American players, managers and owners in the EPL and what it was like to act on the set of Ted Lasso. Then, Alexi and Mosse preview a packed U.S. weekend abroad—featuring Yunus Musah, Christian Pulisic, Malik Tillman, and Noahkai Banks—and ask the big question: Who is truly the face of the USMNT right now? Finally, in #AskAlexi, the guys analyze Chris Richards at Crystal Palace and wrap up with a review of the IndyCar Freedom 250 in D.C.
