Great stuff as usual.

Don’t sleep on Mexico. Gilberto Mora is 17, but has elite talent. They are also playing at home and Mexican fans are passionate. Those fans can will their team to victory.

My mom is full Belgian and still has family there. I have a major soft spot for the Red Devils. However, you are spot on. Their chance to win has passed. They’ll finish second in the group stage and lose quickly in the knockouts.

I might be crazy, but I have a feeling about the US. It’s our 250th, playing at home, and there is talent on the roster. The question will be can they hold their own against the elite teams?

The problem, I think, is defense, and that’s actually what I’m highlighting in Day 2’s article. Also, there’s a lot and a lot of pressure, especially because they’re playing in front of their fans. I don’t wanna say too much lol, because it’s coming out very soon.

Belgium can definitely be a dark horse! For non-soccer fans, Belgium is a team many will love watching.

Home-field advantage in soccer is real.

As always, thank you for the kind words!
