On this episode, we continue our FIFA World Cup coverage with a deep dive into the USMNT's emphatic victory over Paraguay in their Group D opener. Was the performance a sign that the Americans are ready to make a legitimate run, and has it changed our expectations for what this team can accomplish?
After a World Cup vibe/temperature-check, we preview the USA's upcoming showdown vs. Australia on Friday at Seattle Stadium, where the Yanks will look to build on the strong start and take another step toward the knockout rounds, hopefully with a tournament debut for Cristian Roldan after the Sounders standout remained an unused substitute in the opener.
Later on, we turn our attention to Seattle's first World Cup match as Belgium takes on Egypt in a marquee clash featuring global superstars Kevin De Bruyne and Mohamed Salah. We discuss what to watch for, the significance of the match for Seattle and what we're expecting for one of the tournament's most intriguing group-stage contests.
