Scuffed | USMNT, World Cup, Yanks Abroad, futbol in America

Juan Guzman reffed MLS matches, helped roll out video assistant refereeing in the league, and now is the state referee administrator for the California State Soccer Association-South, one of the nation's richest soccer regions. We talked about getting young people into reffing, why Juan did it, how ARs stay on the invisible off side line, how parents aren't as bad as they might appear in isolated social media videos and how referees prepare for pro games. Fun conversation.

Natalia Astrain, the Telemundo soccer commentator who's coached youth and professional women's soccer on both sides of the Atlantic and coaxed intentional, lovely soccer from the U17 women's national team in 2022, joins the pod. She has a distinct vantage point for observing the challenges and opportunities facing women's soccer in America as the national team prepares for the beginning of the Hayes era. Wide-ranging conversation -- everything from Onyeka Gamero's path to the first team at Barca to the superpowers of the American player and the overemphasis on results at young ages in the States.

Greg, Vince, Tara and Belz talk through the surprise of the weekend, first reported by Joe Lowery at Backheeled, that Chelsea manager and arguably the best coach in women's soccer Emma Hayes has agreed to terms with the USSF to coach the women's national team. We talk about her background, her ideas about American soccer development, the ways she is likely to manage the WNT and the as yet unclear transition for her from Chelsea to USA.
