Hours after the final whistle, Brendan Hunt and Rebecca Lowe come to terms with the USMNT’s humiliating World Cup elimination at the hands of Belgium. They wonder where it all went wrong for this once-promising U.S. team, from Folarin Balogun’s red-card saga to Matt Freese’s catastrophic goalkeeping error, and Brendan makes the case that this was the USMNT’s worst-ever World Cup exit. Plus, Rebecca declares England’s shorthanded win over Mexico at the Azteca — which Brendan witnessed in person — to be the Three Lions’ greatest-ever performance on foreign soil.
