The World Cup may be over for the USMNT, but there's still plenty to unpack and the tournament isn't finished just yet. On this episode, we're putting a bow on the United States' 2026 World Cup run with our full tournament autopsy in which we discuss the debacle against Belgium and get into Christian Pulisic/Mauricio Pochettino discourse. We also preview a blockbuster World Cup semifinal slate featuring France vs. Spain and Argentina vs. England, making our picks to reach the final and discuss what the last four reveal about the importance of elite, match-winning talent.
Then it's back to the MLS grind as we break down the Seattle Sounders' decision to trade homegrown defender Cody Baker to the New England Revolution as reported by our own Niko Moreno, what the club's growing collection of roster assets could mean moving forward, and preview Rivalry Week as the Portland Timbers come to Lumen Field for the MLS restart.
