Welcome back to Ticket, welcome to the conversation corner.
Sometimes this is true.
It's hard for fans to breathe when watching a World Cup final.
It's so dramatic.
Well, breathing might be a problem for players in Sunday's match as air quality warnings in New York and New Jersey have prompted some internal safety discussions within FIFA.
Sacha Kljestan joins me now.
He's a former professional soccer player and currently a Major League Soccer analyst.
Sacha, great to have you on the program.
You've played this game.
How big a concern do you think it might be if air quality is as bad as it has recently been in the New York-New Jersey area?
>> Well, I think we all have our fingers crossed that this air is going to clean up a little bit, hopefully with some rain tomorrow.
Obviously, if it doesn't, I do think it's a concern.
Are they going to change the game?
I doubt it.
There's too much riding on this.
Uh, it's the World Cup final.
I I don't see how they could move the game or do anything like that at this point.
Uh, but yeah, it would affect the game in a negative way.
I think it slows the game down and that would not be fun for anybody to watch.
>> Talk about what it means for a player when the air quality is bad, breathing as much, running as much as you are in a match of this intensity.
>> Yeah, listen, it's not going to be fun for anybody who's playing the game.
Uh, and when I say slow it down, yeah, it's going to be harder on the players.
They're going to get tired easy.
And it's going to be hot regardless, right?
It's New York in the summertime.
The game's already going to be hot and humid outside and to throw in the bad weather, it's going to make the game slower.
I I don't know who that favors, probably Argentina if I'm really thinking about it because Spain wants to play a quick game with a lot of passing on the ground.
Argentina can muck it up a little bit.
>> Sacha, diagram the game more fully than you just did.
You gave us a little bit of a preview, but break it down for my audience, what to watch for.
>> Okay, so Spain is the best team in the tournament.
They've been that, you know, from the beginning till the end.
And when I say best team, best of players, the style of play, they keep possession as soon as they lose the ball, they win it right back.
They've only given up one goal in the entire tournament.
That's absurd.
So, their defending starts with their possession.
And then Argentina, they have Lionel Messi, the best player of all time.
And they've been losing or tied in every game of the knockout round, and it's been teetering on the edge, and Messi has found a way to drag his team to victory.
And I've learned after covering Messi for the past 3 years and watching him play for 20 years, to never bet against Messi.
He always makes you look like a fool.
>> Sasha, talk to me about this po- photo that is the photo of all photos for this World Cup.
Messi, and I believe he's 20 years old, with the now best player on the Spain team.
There's the picture right there.
>> Yeah, it's fate.
That's That's Lamine Yamal as a baby.
His family won a raffle to be included in this photo shoot with Lionel Messi, and now they will face off, you know, this Sunday in a World Cup final.
Lamine Yamal also plays for FC Barcelona, the team that Lionel Messi made his name with for many years, and everybody sees him as the heir apparent, the next best player in the world, and he's 19 years old, just like Messi was in his first World Cup.
Uh it's fate.
It's destiny that these two will will line up on the field on Sunday.
>> 15 seconds. Does anyone care about the third place game?
>> I I'll tell you there's a couple of players who care about the third place game.
It's Kylian Mbappé, who's going for the golden boot.
So, he's tied with Messi right now on eight goals.
I can bet everything that he's going to be gunning for a hat trick tomorrow.
And then you've got Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, who also have an outside chance of winning the golden boot if one of them can put up a hat trick tomorrow.
>> Sasha, class act. I appreciate the time.
Thank you so much.
