Show Notes
This is an important week for Kansas City to show its soccer bona fides to the world a year away from the site selection for the 2026 Men’s World Cup. The U.S. Men’s National Team plays at Children’s Mercy Park on Wednesday and a good crowd is expected. The U.S. Women continue their quest for a championship, and Sporting KC picked up a huge road victory on Sunday. The Star's columnist Sam Mellinger and soccer beat writer Sam McDowell chat with host Blair Kerkhoff about all things soccer.
