    Security issues around the Copa América final at Hard Rock Stadium prevented many fans with tickets from getting in, while others climbed fences and even went into air ducts to gain entry. Filippo Silva, host of the Tactical Manager YouTube channel, joins the show to offer his firsthand account of the disarray, and his thoughts on what’s next for the USMNT.

    Plus, a top South American soccer official was arrested at the Copa final, Jaylen Brown believes Nike kept him out of the Olympics, and many questions remain after the Angels reached a settlement with Anaheim.
