"We were the promoters of the game. We did funky things... I went on to Conan O'Brien when he was kind of coming up, and I had to play soccer on stage with a bunch of pit bulls. These are the things that you had to do to promote the World Cup back in '94. Now it's different."

Herc sat down with Tony Meola, goalkeeping legend of the USMNT. Tony was a true pioneer in soccer and shared his experiences from the three World Cups he participated in, anecdotes from his best year in MLS with the Kansas City Wizards, discussed the changes in the soccer landscape in America over the past 30 years, and shared a special memory about the presentation of iconic denim kits from the World Cup USA 94'.

"I would say, try not to attack too much vs. Uruguay because the counter-attack will be very difficult for the USA team to defend, which was something that we've done for so many years. Now I think it's a little bit different (...) Maybe at the moment, Uruguay is a team that tries to pass the ball and wants to go to the goal directly."

Herc had a candid conversation with Diego Forlan, Uruguay's legend, Copa America Champion, former Manchester United player, and the current ambassador of La Liga in Spain. Diego shared why he and the Jabulani ball were a trending topic during the World Cup South Africa 2010 with Uruguay.

FA CUP WEEKEND O'WONDER: "Arsenal vs Liverpool. The FA Cup may be a sideshow for both of these teams, but playing at home before a long suffering crowd. Arteta had some pressure to deliver a symbol of stabilization after that sourest of holiday periods: 3 losses out of 5, the sense of a rattling plummet felt real… AKA Could their impotent attack turn around their 'platinum bed s***ting'."

"What is undoubtedly the biggest profile game of the 3rd round: first place Liverpool, face the team who were champions of Christmas. But… Liverpool are already in the Carabao Cup semi-final and will face up to Fulham on Wednesday in the first leg of that clash. With the league title-race front of mind, will Jurgen Klopp really want to clutter the fixture list further with an FA Cup run for his now Mo Salah-less side?"
