Palmeiras, Sounders’ Schmetzer and the numbers behind FIFA Club World Cup
Description
Semra Hunter and Mo Edu are back for the latest FIFA Club World Cup Show. They hear about FIFA President Gianni Infantino’s recent visit to Rose Bowl Stadium and how the tournament will honor the areas first-responders following January’s wildfires. Matteo Trevisani joins the show to lead a deep dive on Palmeiras, as the Brazilian giants get set for Group A. There they’ll face Inter Miami, and Matteo and Mo share some insights into the impact the Messi-era in South Florida has had on US football. Seattle Sounders Head Coach and stalwart Brian Schmetzer reveals why he’s prouder than anyone to be leading his club into the tournament. Finally, Semra chats with stats man Rob Esteva to break down some of the staggering numbers that make the FIFA Club World Cup the most inclusive and merit-based competition in history.
