Alexi Lalas and David Mosse discuss the FIFA World Cup announcing the 2030 host locations for the FIFA World Cup: Portugal, Spain, and Morocco. But what really grabs our attention is the special twist for the 100th anniversary of the World Cup; Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay will each host a singular game to give their respective national teams and fans a home game experience.
