USMNT End 2021 With a Win, Look Ahead to 2022 World Cup Year Dec 20, 2021

Show notes

On the final The Best Soccer Show of 2021, Jason Davis and Jared DuBois take a look back at a very busy year for the USMNT that was capped off with an uneventful win against Bosnia and Herzegovina. First, it was a weird lineup Friday night and an early red card for the opponent made it tough to take too much away from this match for the USMNT. After winning the Concacaf Nations League and the Gold Cup, would you consider 2021 a success for the USMNT? Finally, should Pulisic move to Barcelona and which American is most likely to play for Wrexham AFC (Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s non-league club).

Thanks to all the Besties for an incredible 2021!
