I’m begging TNT Sports once again, please get these folks a bigger desk, not this one off Temu


🦃 We’d like to wish all of our American followers a Happy Thanksgiving today! 🇺🇸 Featuring Brian D. Bunk’ account of the sport in its earliest years, here are nine related reads to American soccer.





Happy birthday to Tony Meola 🎂 Here he is in Trinidad, moments after the #USMNT qualified for the 1990 World Cup. He was only 20 years old. Once Tony came into the side, the US didn't concede a single goal in qualifying ... four straight clean sheets.


35 years ago today the #USMNT lost a friendly against the USSR in Palo Alto 1-2. 61,000 watched, which set a new record. Here's John Harkes not quite letting the Cold War end, and Peter Vermes selling a penalty like his rent's due (which Harkes converted). How about these kits?
