Summary

"In this book, soccer journalist and historian Beau Dure traces the many issues holding back the U.S. men's soccer team, from failed leagues to the unique American sports culture. Yet, Dure argues that with the right long-term changes, the U.S. can build a soccer environment that spawns quality players and strong results on the national stage"--, Provided by publisher
