OTC Club World Cup Special: How ready is the US for next year's World Cup? | Episode 3

In just 350 days time, fans from 48 nations will descend on the US, Canada and Mexico - three uncomfortable neighbours - who are tasked with hosting one of the most complex World Cups in football history. It's no mean feat, but after the two previous World Cups in Russia and Qatar, many fans – certainly in the west – were glad to finally see the world's favourite competition return to the hands of more familiar hosts. But in a year where unrest and uncertainty cloud the American political and social landscape, how prepared is the US to stage such a global celebration? Andy speaks to fans and broadcasters at the Club World Cup to explore whether the country is ready - not just in infrastructure, but in spirit - for what lies ahead.
