  • USMNT Deep Dive: Can They Beat Bosnia? — with special guest Ben Jacobs
    2026/07/01
    The real test starts now. With Gary away, The Qooligan sits down with journalist Ben Jacobs — who's been following the US men's national team all tournament — for a proper deep dive into Pochettino's side ahead of their win-or-go-home round-of-32 tie with Bosnia. It's a chance to end a drought of more than two decades since the USMNT last won a World Cup knockout game. Ben lays out exactly what the US must do to get past a physical, streetwise Bosnia: make a fast start, win the midfield battle through Tillman and Adams, stretch them in wide areas, and get quick service to Balogun. They dig into Pochettino's settled XI, why the Türkiye loss is being wildly overrated (Paraguay dumped out Germany; the US dismantled the same Australia side that demolished Türkiye), and the luxury of a bench holding Pepi, Gio Reyna, Aaronson and Trusty. Plus the one Bosnian who terrifies The Qooligan — teenage super-sub Amar Memić — and a potential full-circle round-of-16 date with Belgium. Then Ben runs the rest of the bracket: Germany's shock exit, Canada and Brazil laboring through, France and Argentina as the favorites, and why Colombia have quietly become his dark horse.

  • The Real World Cup Starts Now: Round of 32 — with special guest Nick Britten of Road to World Cup 26
    2026/06/29
    The group stage is in the books — and the real World Cup starts now. With Gary away, The Qooligan welcomes back fellow referee and Hooligan contributor Nick Britten of the Road to World Cup 26 podcast for a wide-ranging look back at a record-breaking opening act and ahead to a mouthwatering round of 32. Did 48 teams water the tournament down? Not a chance, the guys argue — the expanded format kept jeopardy alive right to the final whistle, none more cruelly than for Iran, in the knockouts at 93 minutes and out by 97. They toast the shock of the summer in unbeaten Cape Verde, relive an Algeria–Austria thriller with echoes of 1982, and marvel at a group stage that produced 212 goals and a glut of world-class strikers — while Ronaldo's struggles leave Portugal sabotaging themselves. Then it's the knockouts. The Qooligan and Nick break down the two ties everyone's circling — Netherlands vs. Morocco and Brazil vs. Japan, both with quarterfinal weight — debate whether Bosnia is a banana peel for the USA or a comfortable win, weigh Canada's winnable date with South Africa, and dig into Mexico's flawless, fortress-at-altitude run. Plus, two referees on the Almirón red card and the new hand-over-mouth rule. A huge thanks to Nick Britten. New episodes of Summer '26 every day of the tournament at hooligan-soccer.com.

  • USA Show Weakness & France vs. Norway: Goals, Goals, Goals
    2026/06/26
    The USA showed their cracks — and the timing couldn't be worse. On Day 15 of World Cup 2026, Gary Striker and The Qooligan dig into a sobering defeat to a dead-rubber Türkiye that exposed the very weaknesses their two opening wins had papered over: shaky defensive communication, flat spells, and a last-minute collapse The Qooligan likens to Sunday-league defending. With a Bosnia side that loves a late wonder-goal waiting in the round of 32, the warning signs are flashing. There's plenty more from a wild day: Germany were stunned by a sharp Ecuador despite a full-strength side, the Netherlands handled a spirited Tunisia to set up a blockbuster round-of-32 tie with Morocco, and Japan produced a tactical masterclass to suffocate Sweden. Plus Anthony Elanga's red-hot streak and Côte d'Ivoire booking their place. Then it's today's headliner: France vs. Norway. Two attacking heavyweights, level on points, neither willing to give an inch — Mbappé and Haaland trading blows in the Golden Boot race, and France's defense finally getting a real test. Gary's calling a 3-2 or 4-3 thriller. Alongside it: a ruthless Spain against a flagging Uruguay (with everyone willing Cape Verde to sneak through against Saudi Arabia), and a wide-open Group G where Egypt, Iran, Belgium and New Zealand all still have a path.
