ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The episode begins with a recap of the World Cup final, Fanatics Fest and the nonstop entertainment happening across New York City. Ebro and Rosenberg discuss the high cost of attending the final, FIFA’s controversial officiating technology and Lionel Messi’s place among the greatest athletes ever. The conversation turns to Lamine Yamal’s incredible history with Messi, including their famous childhood photo and nearly identical ages when they scored their first professional goals.
