I love soccer and don’t want to rail on the FOX coverage just for the sake of it, but this is a complete miss from FOX.
USA just won their first knockout game in 24 years, and immediately after the game FOX cuts to Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Thierry Henry & a British host.
How are Alexi Lalas, Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey not the immediate postgame crew we get to hear from? What an absolute joke. #USA
Those crafty Aztecs were playing the long game when they established what is now Mexico City in 1325.

A 1982 World Cup match between West Germany and Austria was so bad that television commentators urged viewers to change the channel, and a Spanish newspaper wrote up the match under their ‘Crimes’ section.
Zeynep Sonmez says tournament organizers ban her from wearing Palestine-supporting pin
“I used to wear a pin. Tournaments no longer allow me to wear it. We had a discussion with the organizers because the Ukrainian flag is allowed but Palestine is not.
