Cobi Jones: US Soccer's World Cup Dream

About this episode

Cobi Jones discusses his experiences and hopes for the US men's national team in the upcoming World Cup.

Cobi Jones, a US mens national team legend, recently participated in a FIFA tournament in Vancouver, donning a black adidas kit for Concacaf. Despite Canadas victory, the event added excitement to the otherwise serious congress week and generated buzz for the 2026 World Cup. Jones, comparing the atmosphere to the 1994 World Cup, envisions a semifinal run under coach Mauricio Pochettino, which would significantly boost the teams and soccers popularity in the US. He encourages current stars like Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie to enjoy the experience, as he did during his 164-cap career. Jones dreams of the team capturing Americas hearts, turning hostile crowds into red, white, and blue supporters, solidifying soccers status in the US.
