    “Absolutely I want a win over the English club. I’ll have my Team USA kit on and I’ll be drinking pints at whatever pub will show the damn thing.”

    1) I didn’t realize it was a club tournament
    2) How does he know what a kit is, but not a club?
    3) Yeah, those goddamn World Cup games are pesky to find media coverage for
