When the US Men's National Team failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, it was a setback to the growth of soccer in America. The disappointment of that failed qualification triggered changes at the top of the team, and a concerted effort to integrate a new group of young talent that could get the team back to the FIFA Men's World Cup in 2022. Players like Weston McKennie, Tim Weah, Tyler Adams, Yunus Musah, Antonee Robinson, Kellyn Acosta and others became fixtures of the starting XI through 2018 and into the 2019 Gold Cup in an effort to gain the experience needed to excel on the international stage. Aaron Long was in that group of players. He worked his way into the national team picture after becoming a stalwart defender under Jesse Marsch for the NY Red Bulls. Once he landed on the senior team roster, his impact was felt. Long became a starter and team captain. Then, after fighting through injuries, figured into the final stages of the World Cup Qualifiers before making the roster for the team's trip to Qatar. Long joined Founding Futbol to talk about his journey through MLS and onto the national team. He discusses how then coach Gregg Berhalter gave the team clear focus on a return to the world's biggest tournament, and what it was like learning to win with a young group of players. Long also reflects on the importance of the USMNT return to the World Cup, and how it helped continue to elevate the game in America. Founding Futbol is a year-long exploration of the critical moments that have led to soccer's emerging popularity in America.Visit our website for more information: FoundingFutbol.com.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Yes Taylor Swift's logo could be on the Barcelona shirt soon. For El Clasico matches against Real Madrid in La Liga play, Barcelona replaces the Spotify sponsor logo with an artist. Last time out, Coldplay was on the front of the shirt for the 4-0 win in Madrid. Reports out of Spain are that Taylor Swift will be on the front of the shirt for the huge match in May in Barcelona, edging out Ed Sheeran and Travis Scott for the honor. Maybe Barcelona will be able to buy a few more players and get them registered if that shirt goes on sale...Alphonso Davies' agent has issued a statement criticizing Canadian manager Jesse Marsch and the federation's handling of his player. The agent said that Davies was not supposed to be in the starting lineup against the USMNT after not feeling 100% following the Mexico game and the agent said "I feel he was pressured to start the game by the coach." No statement yet from Marsch, but this is a bad look all the way around. Arsenal overturned a 2-0 deficit to Real Madrid in the UEFA Women's Champions League to win 3-2 on aggregate and advance to the semifinals to face Lyon, who handled Bayern yesterday in the second leg with just a little bit of stress. Today, Barcelona is expected to reach the semifinals again as they host Wolfsburg with a 4-1 lead from the first leg. Chelsea go back to Stamford Bridge to host Manchester City and they trail 2-0 after the first leg. Sonia Bompastor has not lost at home since taking over Chelsea, but can they flip the first leg margin as well?Reports out of Brazil have Thiago Almada rejoining Botafogo for the Club World Cup before his transfer is made permanent at Lyon, where he is currently on loan. With John Textor, anything is possible but this seems like a wild summer for Thiago who might just want a break. Maybe it's because the Club World Cup winner could take home around $125 million, the most lucrative tournament in club football when taking into account the number of games to achieve that prize. The rhombus between Xabi Alonso - Bayer Leverkusen - Real Madrid - Carlo Ancelotti - Brazil's national team could see a little clarity today as Alonso is expected to speak to the media on his future at Leverkusen, while Dorival Junior is expected to speak with the Brazilian federation tomorrow to explain what happened in their loss to Argentina. Stay tuned...More Espresso coming tomorrow on the SDH Network, presented by Oglethorpe University.

TSN Soccer Reporter Matthew Scianitti joined OverDrive to discuss the headlines around the CONCACAF Nations League, Canada's semifinal matchup against Mexico, Jesse Marsch's approach to the lineup, the World Cup trajectory for the country and more.
Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.The Concacaf Nations League semifinals will be played tonight as the USMNT hosts Panama at 7pm followed by Canada vs. Mexico at 10:30pm, you can watch both on Paramount+. Excited to see a fully healthy Tyler Adams working under Mauricio Pochettino, curious to see if Josh Sargent can be the player for the USMNT that he's been at Norwich, and I want to see if Weston McKennie's desired "nastiness" comes out tonight in the team. With meaningful games few and far between for the USMNT between now and the World Cup opener next June, this is an important test for Pochettino and the team. Lots of eyes on Jesse Marsch and Canada as well against a Mexico side that has not been impressive for a little while now. Japan booked their spot in the 2026 World Cup this morning with a 2-0 win over Bahrain. Takefusa Kubo scored a goal and assisted on the opener. They are the first to achieve qualification, joining the hosts for next summer's tournament. Australia moved a step closer with a 5-1 win over Indonesia this morning as well.4 upsets in the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup last night as El Farolito, Little Rock Rangers, and Virginia Dream knocked off pro teams to advance. The Des Moines Menace, stacked with former pros, also won although it's hard to put it in the same group as the other amateur teams. Sacha Kljestan scored twice as the Menace defeated Sporting Kansas City II. One element of the USL promotion and relegation announcement yesterday that came out after the fact is that it is contingent on the first division professional league launching. Paul McDonough feels that it wouldn't be as "authentic" if it just includes the current USL Championship and USL League One setup. According to the USSF Pro League Standard, they'll need 12 teams in 3 time zones and in stadiums of at least 15,000 seats to start a first division professional league. I'm just hoping that the plans are more concerned with long-term sustainability than short-term buzz. A new 7v7 event is launching internationally for women's teams called the World Sevens Football. The idea is for it be like grand slam events throughout the year and with a $5 million purse for each event. The first is set for May in Portugal and will include top women's professional clubs. Will it include current women's professional players? UEFA Nations League quarterfinals today, Italy will be shorthanded against Germany at Mateo Retegui is out with a thigh injury.

With the spring (and, very soon, summer) of soccer on the horizon, Donnovan brings on two guests who know the beautiful game better than most: Toronto FC Head Coach Robin Fraser (2:19) and Olympic medallist Diana Matheson (28:42). First, Robin discusses TFC's start to the season, how he operates as a head coach both on a personnel level and a tactical one, his relationships with Greg Vanney and Jesse Marsch, and what success would look like in his first year. Afterwards, Diana discusses the rapidly approaching debut for the Northern Super League, including what she's learned during the creation of a new domestic Canadian league, any surprises she's encountered along the way, and what's still left to get done in the last 30 days before the first kickoff in NSL history.

Then, the focus shifts to the reigning champions' Final Four opponents. Don't underestimate Panama under Thomas Christiansen (25:27). Javier Aguirre's Mexico roster has some surprises, but there's really only one question on everyone's lips - Can Santi Jiménez and Raúl Jiménez play together (30:26)? The guys talk about Canada's development under CIWYW alumnus Jesse Marsch, and whether the Canucks should be consider the favorites (47:39). And finally, is there a way to squeeze Antonee Robinson and Alphonso Davies into the CNL Finals Best XI (59:46)?

Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola dive into the mailbag to answer YOUR burning questions. But first, the focus is on the Boxing Day action. With Leeds United sitting at the top of the Championship, can Brenden Aaronson push his way into a starting role for the national team? And with Jedi Robinson continuing to turn heads, has Fulham captain even reached his full potential yet? Then it's question time as the guys consider what the USMNT might have looked like had Jesse Marsch taken the reins. The trio also revisit some of the most iconic USMNT kits in history and get into a lively discussion about which players deserve a spot in a Concacaf 5-a-side dream team. Is Mauricio Pochettino managing the most talented group of U.S. players we've ever seen? And finally, with MLS viewership numbers under the microscope, the guys weigh in on how concerned the league should be moving forward.
We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and general soccer chat, in what's been another eventful week in the world of Canadian football. It's D & D time in North American soccer, but instead of rolling the dice for some fantasy fun, it's clubs doing so in terms of a multitude of Drafts and Draws. Last week saw an insufferable draw for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, that doesn't bode well for what the one for the 2026 World Cup will look like, and there's a plethora of draws and drafts coming up over the next fortnight. Seattle will be hosting six matches in the Club World Cup. Will there even be one or will the players revolt? And what lessons, good and bad, might we glean for 2026 from the tournament's format and kick off times? MLS Commissioner Don Garber gave his annual State of the League address last week. We pick over the bones of the main takeaways and talking points around the future schedule, how MLS will approach the various cup competitions next year, Apple TV metrics, and more. Our feature interview this episode is with the Whitecaps Canadian Championship hero, goalkeeper Isaac Boehmer. It's been quite the 2024 for Isaac and we recap it here, as he battles for the number one jersey with the 'Caps next year. Could he also earn his first Canadian call-up in Jesse Marsch's Camp Poutine? And how is Muffin getting on? We get all the important answers! All of this plus Ryan Gauld muses about Scotland's Nations League campaign and looks ahead to this Friday's UEFA World Cup qualifying draw, Forge FC head coach Bobby Smyrniotis talks to us about the upcoming CONCACAF Champions Cup draw and next year's Canadian Championship, and music-wise we kick off our 2024 Festive 15 with the songs that came in at the numbers 10 to 12 positions.
