The United States wasted absolutely no time making a statement at the twenty twenty six World Cup, dismantling Paraguay four goals to one in Los Angeles on Friday. Giovanni Reyna and Folarin Balogun both found the net, and Mauricio Pochettino's side looked sharp, composed, and ready to go deep in Group D. Hollywood was watching, and the USMNT delivered.
Across the Atlantic, Roma are moving with serious intent this transfer window. Owner Ryan Friedkin has personally reassured manager Gian Piero Gasperini that one hundred million euros is ready to be deployed on three high-profile signings. Gasperini wants to close the gap on Napoli, Milan, and Juventus, and it sounds like the money is there to do exactly that.
Meanwhile, Ralf Rangnick will not be heading to the San Siro. The former Manchester United manager's move to AC Milan has collapsed entirely, ending what would have been a dramatic return to club football. Milan now head back to the drawing board as they search for the right man to lead their project forward.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
