Sunday Cup-o-American soccer: Messi, chickens, and social justice

The American cup-o-soccer slept in this morning so enjoy this brunch lunch second lunch edition of the weekly look at US soccer news. This week’s news includes what it’s like to meet Messi and have no idea what he’s saying, a new face for the USWNT, chickens, and an alliance between MLS and NBA players.

Does anyone know a good Spanish tutor?

Look, I don’t want to get too excited or anything and it’s probably no big deal, but there’s an American who plays for Barcelona. He’s a real soccer player and everything and isn’t just there on trial or doing some promising stuff in their youth system.
