Emma Hayes Olympic expectations, U23 U.S. Men’s fall to France, Canada Soccer Spygate
Manage episode 430633078 series 2548173
Alexi Lalas and David Mosse react to a hectic first day of Olympic soccer. The U23 U.S. Men’s team fell to France in their opening match. After a goalless first half, the French dominated with 3 unanswered goals in the second. Morocco also secured 3 points over Argentina behind a dramatic ending with a stoppage time goal, VAR, fans unrest, and over an hour long game suspension. On the women’s side, more pre-tournament drama broke out as Canada Soccer goes under investigation and Emma Hayes tries to lower Olympic expectations while explaining that the playing field has become more even. (6:30)
The guys also discuss Real Salt Lake’s Diego Luna who was left off the U.S. Men’s Olympic Roster. Soon after, Luna announced that he will keep his options open to represent Mexico at the international level. Javier Aguierra has also been named as the new head coach for El Tri, and it is reported that we will likely see names such as Hirving Lozano and Memo Ochoa back on the roster under his tenure. (29:45)
In #AskAlexi, Mosse and Alexi answer questions on the mindset of overage men's Olympic players, the state of USMNT heading into 2026 World Cup, and whether Alexi would consider the USMNT head coach position if offered. (49:50)
