    Now it’s time to do the same on the Women’s game as they have massively failed after “saving” soccer for the men.

  • Informative and engaging

    I didn’t start following soccer and the usmnt closely until the 2010 but I recognized many of the names of players and coaches. This was fanatasitc and I hope us soccer can avoid something similar form happening again (although they have some new drama going now)

  • Amazing History of American Soccer

    I followed the USMNT since Italia ‘90, only being able to spectate what was a third class sport in the US. With little media coverage through the MLS era, we had no idea what was going on in the training camps and locker rooms. Roger Bennet blows the lid off this pre-MLS era and delivers the scarcely heard stories from the USMNT golden generation. Excellent production, research and interviews.

  • Well Done 👍

    Having been a teenager during this era, I found this incredibly entertaining as I remember the games only but none of the outside drama that surrounded this. Well done Rog
