SPOILER ALERT! With Dem gov candidate Francesca Hong

Author: Sconnie Sports Network July 13, 2026 Duration: 1:27:15

Forward Madison had one job: spoil the USL Cup for Omaha, and ensure they couldn’t make it to the knockout round of the tournament. Our boys understood the assignment and not only won the game, but did so in ridiculously exciting fashion. After we break down that match, state Rep, Gubernatorial candidate and lifelong soccer fan Francesca Hong joins us to talk about flipping pancakes on the campaign trail and what soccer rule she’ll change as governor.
