## Resource

Erling Haaland just lit up the World Cup with a game-winning goal for Norway, sparking a national conversation about the future of youth sports in America. Scoring his 60th international goal faster than anyone ever has, and becoming the third player to score in his first three World Cup outings, Haaland’s explosive talent and physical dominance are reshaping perceptions. With the U.S. potentially hosting again in 2038, his performance could inspire a generation to ditch the NFL for soccer — and maybe even lead to a future World Cup triumph for the USMNT.
