I love how all the “ruffians” told the US to be ready for the World Cup and how they were going to come in and trash cities and start brawls everywhere. Then, they get a look at some of the venues, saw that the US citizenry is more armed than their home armies and sat quietly in the stands after drinking Sanka and eating crumpets all night.
What a farce! Futbol is not a game; it is an excuse to riot. Check out the murder in Argentina recently.
Happily, it won’t work here. Just hold a World Cup in Philadelphia or the Meadowlands and see how unruly fans get.

At the old Metro Stars and Cosmos games, most of the fans were foreigners, balanced out by youth soccer leagues on a field trip.
