## Resource

Austin and Amit recap yet another banner day at the World Cup, starting with the USMNT's comprehensive, but costly, 2-0 win over Bosnia & Herzegovina. They next cover another Harry Kane special as England rallied for a 2-1 win over DR Congo, then try to make sense of Belgium's death defying 3-2 rally against Senegal.
