The Soccer Tournament

[Pitt79]

What do you think of this? 7v7, kind of like the TBT, interesting that there's a team of US Women going to play in it, all the other teams are men, representing various teams, even EPL and colleges, etc.

The rules are interesting so I'll probably watch a little but for me to have real interest, they neded to make the teams more interesting:

- USWNT players who recently retired. The players on that team are way too old

- different generations of USMNT players. Like a U40 team and O40 team

- same for Mexico

- team of former NBA stars

- team of former NFL stars

- team of former MLB stars

- a high school team

That would be interesting, I think it would prove that NFL and NBA players without serious soccer experience would get destroyed. If you noticed Ocho Cinco is playing, but he played soccer in high school or somewhere before.

Did you watch any of it, I saw the Final, I also saw a score there the USA women lost 12-0. Anyways, I found the Final interesting, the whole format is suited to Indoor Soccer, the size of the field and 7v7 is very similar, so I start watching the game, realize the one team is indoor soccer players I am familiar with, I used to go to a lot of Baltimore Blast games with my daughter over the years, two of the players and the head coach of the team that eventually won where former Blast players. Watching the game it was easy to see why they won the million dollars, Newtown FC was the team. They played indoor style and it fit this little field and lesser players.

No. I didn't know when it started or never saw it listed on YouTube TV so I think it was a stream-only on Peacock

Newtown Pride FC takes home TST's $1M prize

Three days after touching down in the United States from Brazil, Kelvin Nunes scored the game-winning goal at The Soccer Tournament to give amateur side Newtown Pride FC a $1 million prize.

Here's where it was broadcast, you can still see it acording to this. It's just ironic that it's better suited to indoor players than the better pro players. It's not as long as a regular game either, I DVRed it and watched it in about an hour, FFing through stoppages.
