M.L.S. Report:  I am a fan of D.C. United so I will try to telL you about how the season is going?  FIFA helping out M.L.S. i guess before the world cup returns to the U.S.A.  I see that Lionel Messi is now on the Inter Miami CF team in the MLS.  That's pretty great to hear since Becks & Rooney join the mls in the history.

U.S. Men Soccer national team - Concacaf nations matches: USA plays versus Mexico very soon.   Now they play Canada in the final of this event.  I know USA/Mexico/Canada have the 2026 World Cup for the men ones.  I heard their 48 teams instead of 32 in the event.  Not sure who is in this event.  I was at RFK for 1994 World Cup & saw Italy vs Mexico that time (1 to 1 was the score).  The 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup in the States this month.  First game preview & result,  Second game preview & result,  Third game coming up very soon…preview - result in group play.

My own opinion on the USWNT why losing so early for the knock stage for the 2023 Women’s World Cup because it’s a much younger team in the wrong system while playing this event.  Why’s your take on it?  I am not sure about watching much more of this event this summer since the USA are out.  I think FIFA is taking a step back in the Women’s game since the rules are too different from the Men’s event.  I was confused on yellow or red cards in group matches carry over in the knockout stages are in the Women’s event.  Any other further info we need on why the USA didn’t do well this time since we have a new coach that’s the way works ok but needs to score more to stay in the event.
