Planet Fútbol With Grant Wahl

Grant interviews Abby Wambach, the World Cup champion, two-time Olympic gold medalist and the all-time leading goal-scorer in international soccer history. Wambach retired from playing in 2015, and she was recently announced as the founding chair of the advisory group for Copa90 to guide its editorial, talent and commercial plans for coverage of women’s soccer as we move toward next summer’s women’s World Cup. She also has a new book coming out next April called Wolfpack: How Women Claim Power, United and Change the Game. In a candid, wide-ranging conversation, Wambach discusses the influence of her wife, best-selling author Glennon Doyle, her new work for Copa90, her three-part video with Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy and her thoughts on FIFA, U.S. Soccer and the women's game.
