Hard to believe it’s the last match. I’m going to miss it all so much.

The USMNT will be stuck at the World Cup until it adopts Germany's blueprint
In 2000 Germany finished last at the Euros and decided it was time overhaul the system. They built 390 regional training bases to make sure one was within 25 km of every kid in country. They hired 1,200 full-time coaches, invested €48 million per year and mandated that every pro club build a certified youth academy or lose its license
The cost to families was $0 and 14 years later, 21 of the 23 players who won the World Cup came directly from the system
