Alexi Lalas’ State of the Union Podcast

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a new episode of State of the Union! We start the show breaking down the INSANE match between Portugal and Croatia that saw Cristiano Ronaldo’s side send Luka Modrić and co. home. Ronaldo bagged his first ever KO stage goal in the World Cup and Croatia had an equalizer ruled out deep into stoppage time. Alexi and Mosse reflect on Modrić’s career as this was surely his last World Cup appearance and look forward to the match between Portugal and Spain set up after Spain’s 3-0 win over Austria. Then we preview the USA’s match vs Belgium in the Round of 16 and discuss how Ricardo Pepi will fill Folarin Balogun’s shoes at striker. We preview the next slate of the matches, the last of the Round of 32, before ending with Alexi’s Moment of the Day.
