About this episode

Czabe discusses the USA's loss to Belgium in the World Cup with guest NICK LOCHNER, analyzing the blame and the state of soccer in the USA.

Czabe breaks down the USA's absolutely 2 a.m. ugly loss to Belgium in the World Cup with NICK LOCHNER of the "Cleansheet EPL" as they "pie chart" the blame to go around. Also, Czabe says USA and soccer is like growing mushrooms in a sandbox. You can try, but it's gonna take a lot of effort. VAR is used to absolutely rob Egypt of a huge goal, and yet somehow the soccer world isn't really outraged enough. MORE....
