FOX Sports, FIFA Fever, and… Dental Drama?! On this episode of Latinos Out Loud, things get muy loco in the best way. LOL was invited to FOX Sports' FIFA World Cup 2026 Media Day, where fútbol legends and broadcasting heavyweights like Javier “Chicharito” Hernández, Stu Holden, Alexi Lalas, Carli Lloyd, Rebecca Lowe, and Rob Stone were all in the building — kicking off FOX Sports' massive, never‑been‑done‑before World Cup coverage. But plot twist: Rachel La Loca couldn't make it as she was red-carded and taken out of play because of emergency dental surgery. So producer and boyfriend Eddie Castro, subbed in, grabbed the mic and conducted the interviews on Rachel's behalf. And let's just say — Eddie understood the assignment. From behind‑the‑scenes excitement to the broadcasters' hype for 2026, Eddie gets the inside scoop straight from the fútbol royalty themselves. It's exclusive. It's hilarious. It's fútbol‑fueled chaos. And it's 100% Latinos Out Loud.   #FIFA #WorldCup #FoxSports #LatinosOutLoud #Soccer #Futbol Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
