    Landon Donovan Says Privilege is HURTING American Soccer + Playing Against Prime Messi & Ronaldo

    In this week's episode of The Late Run, Landon Donovan—the most decorated American men's soccer player of all time—joins Ocho and Raheem. From the jump it's clear how different his road was from Chad's. While Ocho was a drafted NFL star with people lining up at his door, a 19-year-old Landon was being sent to a park to entertain 11 kids just to sell 30 tickets. Landon gets into the culture shock of moving to Bayer Leverkusen alone at 16, the 2012 sabbatical that nearly ended his career and why he became one of soccer's first mental-health voices, the Jürgen Klinsmann decision that cost him the 2014 World Cup, why he refuses to pick between Messi and Ronaldo after facing both in their prime, how David Beckham's gamble saved MLS, and the $50K pay-to-play problem he says is quietly killing American soccer. Plus the grit he thinks the current generation is missing—and why the World Cup at home could change everything. CHAPTERS: 00:00 — Intro 01:23 — Where it started + how US soccer fandom exploded 05:19 — The promo grind: 11 kids to sell 30 tickets 08:23 — Leverkusen at 16 + the Canada question 24:30 — The 2012 sabbatical & mental health 28:57 — The Klinsmann snub + Ocho's Patriot Way 35:08 — Did Beckham save MLS? 37:04 — Facing prime Messi & Ronaldo 41:57 — The $50K problem killing US soccer 49:07 — The grit that's missing today SUPPORT THE SHOW: Grab your FREE House of Goal tickets here and celebrate the World Cup with us at New York’s largest soccer culture festival: http://www.goal.com/houseofgoal Start using Codex for free at http://chatgpt.com/codex New DraftKings customers, bet $5 and get $100 in bonus bets instantly.

    CM Punk on Match in Brazil Cut Short by Armed Guards + Messi vs Ronaldo GOAT Debate

    CM Punk pulls up to The Late Run with the belt — and the WWE World Heavyweight Champion turns out to be a bigger football head than anyone expected. Ocho and Raheemovic get Punk talking Celtic loyalty (he's half Irish, and rival Drew McIntyre reps Rangers), why Celtic vs Rangers is "200 years of religious hatred," and why most Americans only wake up to soccer for the World Cup. Then it gets wild: Punk tells the story of the night in Brazil when an opponent disrespected the Brazilian national flag mid-match — and the ring got surrounded by armed men aiming straight at him. Plus, the crew debates: who's the better actor, a diving footballer or a wrestler selling in the ring? Who trash talks better, WWE or soccer players? And the big one — Punk names his soccer GOAT (hint: a flying knee KO is involved) and goes Messi over Ronaldo. Ocho shares his dream WrestleMania entrance (Free Bird, oiled-up, cigar in hand), and Punk names which footballer’s would make the best WWE Superstars. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Ocho's Soccer TWIN: Mario Balotelli on Italy's Collapse & Why He REFUSED to Change for Any Club

    In this episode of The Late Run, Premier League and Champions League winner Mario Balotelli joins Ocho and Raheem. From the opening bow, it's clear these two are cut from the same cloth: two of the most unapologetic showmen their sports have ever produced, in one room. Chad doesn't call himself "Balotelli Jr." for nothing. Mario gets into why the Italy national team has fallen so far and how he'd fix it, the rough Liverpool year that left him low in England, the racism he faced in Serie A and why he calls it ignorance, the Mourinho red-card story, his Barcelona trial at 15, and what really happened on that LA Galaxy backheel. Plus his verdict on the Messi–Ronaldo debate ("Messi is not normal"), the one player he rates above him, life after football, and the launch of his new "Why Always Me?" project. Ocho and the crew also break down the USMNT's World Cup run on Oo's Props. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Tyler Adams: Americans Don't Respect Soccer, World Cup Pressure & Europe's UNFAIR Politics

    USMNT midfielder Tyler Adams joins Chad Ochocinco Johnson and Raheem Taylor-Parkes on The Late Run ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Tyler opens up about what a successful World Cup looks like for this generation, why some young Americans are moving to Europe too soon, and the politics of being an American player trying to earn respect abroad. He drops a powerful line: until America creates its own Messi, there's always going to be a stigma on US players. Plus: Ocho and Raheem break down the Arsenal vs PSG Champions League final, Tyler reveals who the hardest Premier League midfielders are to play against, settles the Messi vs Ronaldo debate, and explains why his USMNT goal against Mexico meant more than his Champions League quarterfinal winner.

    Bradley Wright-Phillips pulls up to The Late Run and pulls no punches. The MLS legend and son of Arsenal icon Ian Wright sits down with Raheemovic and Ochocinco to talk about the pressure of growing up in his dad's shadow, why he believes Messi's child has no chance of being better than him, and what MLS in 2013 was really like - "the ghetto". Ocho shares the real story of his Sporting Kansas City trial during the NFL lockout, the time Mourinho let him train with Real Madrid's reserves and they ran rings around him, and why he got fined by the NFL for warming up with a soccer ball.The GOAT debate gets heated when BWP tells Ocho flat out that Messi is "not even close" to Ronaldo, the boys read hate comments, and the squad imagines what would happen if America's best athletes had grown up playing soccer. Plus: refs on power trips, Ocho's TST appearance, the BWP-Yannick Bolasie rap battle, and the McDonald's diet that fueled 13 NFL years with zero injuries. Learn more about your ad choices.
