AFCON Sets the Tone, Nations League Expands, USMNT ahead of 2026: Soccer Over There, 12.22
Published 2 months ago
Description
AFCON wasted no time reminding us how unforgiving tournament soccer can be. On tonight’s Soccer Over There, we break down the first two days of action, including late drama in Group A, hard-earned wins for Egypt and South Africa, and what these early results tell us about the road ahead.
We then zoom out to the global game as CAF and AFC move toward launching their own Nations League competitions. What are the benefits, the drawbacks, and how could these tournaments reshape international soccer calendars already under strain? Jarrett Smith also helps the show go off the rails as Celtic, USMNT, and ShamWow all make appearances to close out the first hour of the show.
Hour two is all about Picks of the Week, highlighting the matches and stories you need to have on your radar.
