Who will win the 2018 FIFA World Cup™?
The Herd with Colin Cowherd USA!
The Herd with Colin Cowherd I’ve got Portugal
the chicago fire
Always like Lalas

This was the best Herd interview in a while. Colin, please talk about soccer, hockey, tennis etc. It will help your show and keep viewers interested. This shouldn't be the LeBron and Lavar Ball show. Diversify!
Nathaniel R it’s not about diversity it’s about ratings, soccer never got views so they didn’t talk about it. Hopefully it can start growing in interest by the numbers
He hasn't tried from what I've seen. He didnt have a single segment about a historic hockey team's run nor Ovechkin finally winning a cup, both of which were getting good ratings across the board. Showing that he cares about sports other than NBA and NFL will help his brand and expand his base.
@ Nathaniel R, I wish Cowherd would talk NHL or at least bring in a former player via satellite call to talk about the sport. It seems like all the sports talk/debate shows on ESPN and FS1 talk about NBA and NFL 90-95% of the time and it gets old. FS1 doesn't even own TV rights to the NBA, but their talk/debate shows obsess over it. They're trying to become a poor man's ESPN, I guess. They own TV rights to MLB, MLS, and NASCAR but never talk about those on their talk/debate shows...
Nathaniel R amen
Can't remember the last time I've seen him talk about baseball
It's the global game. The world cup is by far the planet's most important sporting event. It would be great to see America and Canada get more involved.
they can get involved in other ways. America and Mexico do not deserve ANOTHER world cup.
The significance? The US automatically qualifies automatically for the world cup. They wont have to face Trinidad or Panama again 😂
Sandernista is that true?
yeah the host qualifies automatically
Not anymore the 2026 World Cup will have 48 teams and the host no longer get automatic qualification 😤
Victor Vasquez Not true, they do have automatically qualification
Sandernista you savage. 🤣
I don't even watch soccer but this guy Alexi is passionate and it makes it interesting
'This guy Alexi'? One of the few globally known ex USA soccer players en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexi_Lalas
Don't get too excited...I have heard this same passion from different people for 30 years about how something like this will build the game in the U.S.
I really hope I'm wrong, but my thoughts are that the game will NEVER be crazy here. People were more interested in Vegas during the Stanley Cup than they are currently in the World Cup. Again...I hope I am wrong and the game grows amazingly...but I have been hearing that for 30 years.
Exactly! PASSION, something that America lacks, even for our own sports.
A Alekhine when the USA made it to the top 8 in the 2002 World Cup, soccer blew up in this country. Hosting the cup will make even more popular
He is also a big component of holding back US soccer.
Even though football (soccer) is not the first priority in the US this is great news. It will not only make the interest for the game much bigger but also boost the economy, etc etc. Great news!
"will boost the economy" for a few corrupt corporations and their owners. The last couple times it made a lot of people more poor. This event is like the Olympic games a scam. Big international corporations suck money from locals, steal their taxes. Also the US can now drop charges against corrupt FIFA members after their own corruption campaign was successful. You do not get the event without bribes. US soccer will never be part of a big 5 instead of the big 4. Soccer does not fit the US advertising market. It has only one halftime break.
wow youre an idiot lmao
I really want soccer to expand in the US, and I'm a UK person. It can only grow the sport to have the US producing world class players and adding to the game. I watch and follow the NBA, and the US knows how to make sports fun for sure.
They have potentially their best ever generation coming through too- being brought through at European teams where they have the best development chance.
They'll forget about it, after it's all over.
Seeing Fernando crying of Joy made me happy cause I’m an immigrant to this country, I work in this country and I love this country and that’s how most of us feel. Grateful to be here. 🙏🏽
where is the Lebron portion of this video
BREAKING NEWS: Colin talks about something that isn't Lebron James
Im just dissapointed that the united bid is primarily in America cuz it should be spread out more among Mexico and Canada
Colin Man Well USA didn’t need Mexico or Canada so I would be happy with deal as is. Especially Canada.
And two years later the Summer Olympics will return to the city of angels for the 2028 games. God bless our extremely imperfect country.
Did he just say Ronaldo is in his prime...
neither of these 2 clowns have any clue about "soccer"
Matt Lowe the other one played for US... In the World Cup... How about you?
Zaph F. Castillo He was awful though lol, my football knowledge is most likely better than his lol
@@mattlowe1801 it's football
No in their PRIME PRIME but still in their PRIME so I agree with LALAS.
5:52 Watch whilst keeping in mind that Germany got disqualified in group stages and England has reached the quarter finals, and probably will at least reach the semi finals. This section of the video is hilariously trumped by the world cup results 😂👌👌
Germany... Whomp whomp whooooooomp!
Colin has obviously never watched soccer before lol
Aidan Finnegan I think Colin more often that not is idiotic but he’s the only host that actually talk about Football/Soccer. He’s a casual fan not a die hard.
“Ronaldo is more in his prime than Messi” ugh cringe
Tbh he did well asking questions
hes right tho. although not in the most ideal typical age timeline cr7 is most definitely in his prime. winning so many in the past few years and even this year should be enough to prove this fact.
Colin chooses Germany as his band wagon team, but doesn't know if that was a good choice.
Lol I like watching this after the world Cup is over. England not making it out of the group, and Germany winning. That’s why we play
What’s this?!?!? Colin talking about something other than LeBron, Lonzo, and Brady? Pinch me I must be dreaming
Hehe, yep, a miracle!
I'm a fan when these 2 talk soccer
A world cup being played in Canada in my lifetime and not England, sickening
Charlie Wright then tell them to bid lmao. It was in Germany in 2006 as well
we did bid but got snubbed for russia and qatar smh.
Just to clarify... baseball is not a sport, baseball is an activity! ⚡
GERMANY!!! THOMAS MULLER hopefully break all time WC Goals (Klose)
Alex Ross yessir
James Black lol howd that work out for you
Bayern wooped Barcelona 2-8 made Messi wanna quit and leave his team ASAP. wow....
Alex Ross guessing your german then, may as well congratulate you now for winning the champions league
@@lukepurdue-peralta3768 nah, just strong ties with Munich. glad to experience Oktoberfest before the pandemic, lol
do all 3 national teams qualify or just 1? If so, how is it determined?
Is there something to FIFA awarding World Cups to countries hosting Olympic Games either two year prior or after the cup? Brazil, Russia, USA.
I noticed too
Now they recognize México as part of the North America?😂
Oskar Dez It is tho
First North American country, human presence for 30,000 years
Great video keep making more about the World Cup!
The distances will be crazy. The poor players.
Soccer would be more popular in US if we had a better league
they need promotion relegation
Deyan T. Exactly
Deyan T. If we could get those other two leagues and make it into one with levels
the US has huge potential for promotion relegation, too many big cities that can have several professional teams, and get rid of this draft BS
Nebula Jo no is soccer is FOOTBALL🙄🙄
This is our year boys..dream big, make history, be legend
Yessir
"You're safe money is certainly putting it on Germany." Cue the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme
I am glad that Colin Cowherd talked about soccer (football). It brings exposure for the sport. MLS will only get better if they pay for elite men's players, and the 2026 World Cup will do wonders for sport. It will be even better if the MNT goes far or wins the tournament.
I like the enthusiasm. I also like Colin talking about soccer bc he never talks about it and the sport needs the exposure. The 2026 World Cup will be the best of all time. I do believe the MNT will win. The tournament in 2026. Based on how we’re progressing, we’re on track to qualify for 2022 and 2026 respectively. We’ll be a completely changed Fédération by 2026 knowing we wrote our past wrongs on how we go about soccer and go about the World Cup. Us missing 2018 was a blessing in disguise bc now we have improved our ways. I’m very excited, and I hope I get to see you there in 2026, perhaps at a match with any country and/or the USMNT.
Honestly Morocco would have been a better choice
Noooooooo
Explain why Morocco is a better choice when you have a good soccer culture in America and more World Cup ready stadiums in America as we speak. Besides there’s more to do in America than there is to do in Morocco
It's football not soccer!!
One of those people...
Does the USA, Canada, and Mexico all automatically make the 2026 World Cup?
Bombed on that Germany call. Lol
So much praise for Germany and it is out in the first round
I’m glad you don’t think Joachim low should be fired
What a disgrace US soccer Federation declined to participate in the Copa America 2019 in Brazil. The best opportunity for US young players to confront the best teams in the world. Mr. Cordeiro, wake up, are you coach potato after being elected?
Opportunities such as this does not show every day. This guy is a nuts.
Morocco’s bid guaranteed a more inclusive, affordable tournament. In that sense it’s a pity their fan-oriented bid did not win.
true morocco is more closer to Europe an Asia then America
Put your money on Germany that didn't work out too well
Ha should have stuck to his English roots then.
Imho as long as corporate advertising rules sport in the USA any sport that constantly does not have time outs or inactive periods long enough for commercial breaks it will not be allowed .
Look at the last time the USA hosted, 45 mins without a commercial on the US networks ? I don’t think so
I know you’re talking about corporations, but American people hate commercial breaks.
The final has to be held at the Azteca alot of iconic matches have taken place there
fire2790 final was set to be in MetLife according to the bid. All matches from the quarters on are in the USA
fire2790 debería ser en el Azteca pero no mames le van a dar la final hasta las semifinales a Estados Unidos no mamen
Tmull21 nooooooo i want the final in azteca maaan
all knockout matches are in the US
the Azteca is so overrated
Only great news of that is USA doesn’t have to qualify
It’s better if we are required to qualify. Keeps us from getting complacent
3:35 well this didn’t age well 👀😅
At least the US team will get a freebie in qualification for 2026 (as WC hosts). God know they need it. Aside from Mexico CONCACAF is a pub league. The US Women are good tbf.
Ronaldo is more out of his prime than Messi and I think it's fairly obvious
Edwin Jurado pretty sure messi has four
Just Run Smith no he has 3 we're not giving him credit for 06 cuz he didnt participate in the ucl lol
Edwin Jurado That didn't have anything to do with my comment lol
Still in his prime, barely. Just not at his peak. Just ask Juve. Messi is probably still at his peak.
BeefPapa Thats a much better way of putting it
a country that doesn't care about the world cup gets it twice the country that invented it doesn't get it once smh
We deserve it bc we were the most qualified to host it. And also US SOCCER is changing their ways so that we can have a chance at any world cup
i am mexican and thought lalas was good and nice person in this interview. hopefully next world cup usa will make it
Lol thats the only way America could qualify.
Univision/Telemundo did a better job than Fox Sports production wise.
I liked fox sports. Tell my why fox didn’t do do good please.
united states has so many stadiums
SO has England, yet we have had one World cup and it's our national sport a joke that your gonna have it a second time in 30 year's.
The US has better world class stadiums than England
I hope Paylay enjoys the tournament
You mean Pelé?
Alexis needs to get a new tie
Haha why
It’s football not soccer
Literally never heard of this guy before, but i already think hes the man.
He’s a former player who doesn’t know a whole lot about the game really. He’s really a hot take guy.
He called Salah better than Messi so he lost all credibility
Every 4 years I watch the world 🌎 cup
That’s about as good a spot as I’ve seen Lalas ever do. All
Down hill for next 3 weeks
Difference is Messi has a team full of selfish and arrogant players and Ronaldo has the keys, the car, and the house to the team. Argentina has much better talent tho
Am I the only one watching Alexi and thinking he could make a great president?
What's that you say about Germany?
Who is Gona stop Harry Kane, that's the real question.
Drakshl they gunna get kaned
how affect this to lebron?
I think Messi won the gold medal from the Olympics. He got an international title.
Yes & no.
It was a U23 team
He also won South America U20
And when you think FIFA did all what they can in order to have US in a world cup and they blew it. I mean, if CONCACAF and CONMEBOL were one federation, like in Europe, US chances of qualifying would be probably zero.
Yup. FIFA make it as easy as possible for US to qualify because they want the big TV contracts and they still can't. CONCACAF is garbage. Hosting a 5th world cup in that region is a disgrace.
First of all, no one bid except US-Can-Mex and MOROCCO.
Second, do you know any country that will not a ruin their economy?
3rd, how many countries that has so many Stadiums? Like they don't have to build new ones?
PLEASE! Can we call it football?
I have been hearing forrrrrrr yearrrrrrr that soccer is going to be Hugh in America. Still waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soccer is the only sport where the final winners are true World Champions...
The NFL, MLB, or even the Olympics will dwarf compared with the magnitude of this event because of the location.
As a native of the Northamerican region, and knowing what the cultural environments are in Mexico, the United States and Canada I predict this to be the greatest sports party our planet earth has ever seen. Mark my words...
I'm so ready.
Did Colin say that Messi is more out of his prime than Cristiano Ronaldo???
the 2026 WC final should be held in Vegas
The travesty that was that 2018/2022 bidding process finally got a decision right with the rightful bid winning, and NA hosting in 2026. IMAGINE if they went with Morocco!!
Agreed with some of the other people, Colin's show would be so much better if he incorporated other sports that he doesn't talk about like hockey, soccer, baseball. Sure he doesn't know as much about hockey or soccer but that's where you incorporate guests
Great stuff Lalas!
This bid is the best thing to happen for usa soccer!!!
I guess Mexico and Canada should celebrate being given the crumbs. Canada has never been able to qualify on its own merits (it needed extra CONCAAFF berths in 1986)
This story is bigger than the 2018 Russia world cup believe me. USA Canada Mexico 3 countries at once hosting 2026 world cup. ,totally unprecedented and astronomical
Did Colin not see how much Messi outplayed Penaldo?
My boy Ronaldo about to go nuts and seal the deal as the goat.
Of course it’s significant for North America to win the bid to host the World Cup, it was the only way USA and Canada was going to qualify for the World Cup anyways 😂
Jim Jones ruthless comment
The USA have been qualifying to the world cup since 1990 it's just until this world cup that they broke that streak and Canada qualified once back in 1986
They didn’t qualify because it was a bad omen putting me in jail
Talk about more than just NBA and NFL, it will get me to watch again. I love hockey but you never talk about anything NHL related.
Maybe in ten year, we will find out who was bribed to get the world cup host
Ketel 1 is not Vodka Colin, it's Dutch gin.
I'm 99% sure that the German Federation voted for the NA bid to troll Trump...
United States need a relegated leagues
Not yet we’re not quite at that level to need relegation
does this mean mexico canada and usa all automatically qualify
the reason why Spain fire there coach is because he was given a large payment for coach club with out telling the, the Spain National team members and players and they did not like that Idea
Alexi has become our most unrelenting ambassador of US soccer
Dear sports fans,
In case you do not know soccer (football), Alexi Lalas is to soccer what Rob Parker is to the nba. Whatever you do, don't listen to this guy. Trust me.
Colin should have picked his French side instead. Would have won
Haha
we coming for that 2026 world cup #americanoutlaws
For the Love of Of God California cannot afford it. We have too many problems as it is.
Neymar just falls down, the big talk should stop of people who have no clue about football
Fox got the TV rights for 2026....
3:35 aged horrendously
Guinness in Ireland is so much better!! I live in N Ireland and it’s not even as good as what you’ll get in the south or Dublin !!
I'm hyped for the world cup, but damn Mexico is gonna get wrecked
By?
Best thing to hope for against Germany is a draw lol.
Tamerlane So how will the U.S. fair in this world cup??
jiujitsujedi is that a joke?
Tamerlane Oh yeah that's right they didn't even get there. Imagine though.
if you keep calling soccer i will loose my mind
get over it
David May 🤦🏾♂️ go away
Jubril Adebayo well the English invented the game and called it soccer until the 80s. Plenty of countries still call it soccer including Australia and Ireland because they already have their own national games they call football.
Absolute Muppet that’s incorrect, most countries have always called it football expect for the USA, Canada, Australia and yes Ireland
well at least the USMNT has a guaranteed place in that world cup . We wouldnt want to see another trinidad and tobaco incident smh....
It’s no mind trick!! Guinness does taste way better in Ireland.
Lalas "Never won international title for Argentina" guess what he won under 20 world cup & 08 gold, its totally embarrassing for someone who a commentator, Pls do your homework next time. another thing is I'm not even a Messi fan. I just a fan of the beautiful game.
Damn still haven’t watch a got damn game yet
Llalas for USA coach
As long as England doesn't have a penalty shootout they should win the World Cup lol
