Summary
Morning Kickaround is here to help get your head around a thrilling first weekend of the World Cup. From the U.S. Men’s National Team and their dream start to Tunisia getting smoked by Sweden, the first weekend seemingly had everything we needed from it. There was surely a lot to like from the USMNT. Folarin Balogun was stellar, Gio Reyna got a much needed goal, and hopefully Christian Pulisic is okay after coming off at halftime. Elsewhere in the World Cup, Cape Verde, Curacao, Uzbekistan, DR Congo, Haiti, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Ghana, Senegal, Ivory Coast and South Africa wrote a joint statement in protest of UEFA President Alexander Ceferin calling many games “uninteresting’ due to the expanded format. Finally, we get a live MK Ultra appearance to look at Group J of the World Cup. https://www.youtube.com/@MorningKickaround You can now support the show on Ko-Fi! Get Your MK Ultra Merch!
