Gronk: 'I Never Watched a Single Soccer Game' ... Now He's Comparing Himself to HAALAND
The Late Run goes LIVE for the first time ever, from House of Goal NYC in the middle of the World Cup, and Gronk pulls up a changed man. The guy who never watched a single soccer game in his life now has full World Cup fever: naming his comp (Erling Haaland, who else), breaking down how Serie A actually works, and arguing that America's best athletes playing football is exactly why the USMNT can't crack the world's top eight.
Ocho and Raheem get Gronk's review of his first live World Cup match, somehow the most boring game of the tournament, his new soccer podcast with Jameis Winston, an Anthony Davis-in-goal hypothetical that got the whole crowd going, and the one GOAT answer guaranteed to make Ocho grab the mic.
