It's interesting to look back at the beginning stages of a project. Under 1st yr HC Yoann Damet, St. Louis City is unbeaten in 20, all comps after 6-2 rout of LAG. Here's what capt Roman Burki told me on Feb 6 for SiriusXM FC after just 3 weeks w/ the new coach. Listen👇 @stlcitysc.com

It’s absurd that he and Navarro are already as good (if not better) than Hartel & Lowen were when they left

City SC wins 4-2 over Minnesota to extend its unbeaten streak to 15 games, tied for the 8th longest in league history. Two goals for Navarro, one each for Holse, Edelman. City SC in 4th in West with 41 points

If the deal doesn't get final agreements within 24 hours... Rafa Navarro could be available for selection for the Rapids on Saturday night. TBD. St. Louis made Navarro their top target for DP No. 9 this summer. Been working a long time. Deal was very close 3 weeks ago, cooled off and back now

🔴 Flo Balogun has been SENT OFF. USMNT will play the rest of the second half with 10 men. If the USMNT advances, Balogun suspended next round. GIGANTIC decision.

This World Cup has mostly been consistent about not letting slow motion video review of borderline contact decide games and I’ve got to say I liked it better that way

Alright well I was bored so I started to write it down. I consider it realistic in 7-9 groups that a team gets 0 points bc 1 team is just so much worse Obv a team could pull a draw & but I could see most of the groups advancing with a 3rd place team that beat the 4th place team. #worldcup

This #USMNT team is the one we’ve waited YEARS to watch. We always talk about their “potential”. This is what we were meaning. Hope they keep it going

Insane 1H by #USMNT. Balogun is brilliant, Pulisic is feeling it and the aggression and press is working to perfection. 3-0. 🇺🇸 is dominating their World Cup opener so far in every way.

Hi I’m Roberto & I’m going to attempt to watch all 104 games of the 2026 World Cup: 1/104: Mexico 2-0 South Africa Good atmosphere at the iconic Azteca and an emotional moment for Raul Jimenez to score his first WC goal, but the multiple red cards is one that was hard to miss!

Looking at the stats If you go by xG, STL deserved a win But every other stat favors COL Watching the game, it felt like a draw or a win deserved by colorado There were some great chances by STL, but the majority of the game felt to be in COL favor.

St. Louis City might be the Columbus Crew now, because this is some lovely work to get out of pressure. First win of St. Louis' new era for Yoann Damet and Corey Wray. Building blocks starting to show — and more talent still to be integrated.

When the World Cup was awarded, there was this idea that, as someone covering the sport, it would be a boon for our coverage, with more outlets wanting a foothold in the space. Instead, most of your favorite writers are now either independent or creating their own outlet.
