The First Time The Men’s World Cup Came to the U.S.A.

May 29, 2026 · 29m

About This Episode

The Men’s World Cup is coming to our continent – and to this country. So we’re using this huge event to dive deep into what soccer means in the United States with a new podcast called “American Futbol.” We hear from immigrants all across the country for whom soccer is a touchstone, but who’ve also woven the sport into American culture and life. And we go back to the 90’s, to the very first time the World Cup came to the United States. There was Oprah, there was O.J.,  and it changed soccer in the U.S. forever. Follow American Futbol and listen to new episodes every Wednesday. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
