Newcastle's Santiago Muñoz; Chris Wittyngham on the Weekend

Grant has a fun interview with Santiago Mu&#241;oz, the El Paso-born 19-year-old forward for Newcastle United (27:38) who scored the goal of the tournament for Mexico at the 2019 Under-17 World Cup, where El Tri finished runner-up behind Brazil. They discuss his history in El Paso/Ciudad Ju&#225;rez (where he became friends with Ricardo Pepi), his discovery at Alianza de F&#250;tbol and signing by Santos Laguna, his loan move to Newcastle, his eerily similar name and story compared to the character of the Goal movies, his thoughts on whether he wants to play at senior level for Mexico or the USMNT and much more. Before that, Grant and Chris break down the weekend, including the latest in the NWSL abuse scandals, a big week ahead for the USMNT and the electric 2-2 tie between Liverpool and Manchester City. <br/><br/>Music: <br/><br/>Get full access to F&#250;tbol with Grant Wahl at <a href="https://grantwahl.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast">grantwahl.substack.com/subscribe</a>
