It was the summer of 1994, and it changed soccer history in the United States. The superstars, the legends and … the hairstyles.
When the U.S. hosted the FIFA Men's World Cup that year, it created iconic moments that continue to be felt to this day. And with the tournament returning this summer to the U.S. – along with fellow co-hosts Canada and Mexico – it's a great time to look back at the impact of the USA '94.
FOX Sports announced on Friday alongsideImagine Documentaries, Delirio Films, DICK’S Sporting Goods’ Cookie Jar & A Dream Studios and Copper Pot Pictures, the new original documentary feature "Summer of ‘94" chronicling the rise of the U.S. men’s national team leading up to that tournament.
The film will premiere on May 23 on FOX. The film highlights the wild journey of the USA's squad, which included FOX Sports analysts Alexi Lalas (host of the "State of the Union Podcast") and Cobi Jones.
Other alumni from the team who'll be featured in the film include Tony Meola, John Harkes, Marcelo Balboa, Eric Wynalda, Jeff Agoos, Thomas Dooley, Paul Caligiuri, and head coach Bora Milutinović.
The film will have its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival on Saturday at the Rollins Theatre as part of the Documentary Spotlight, Documentary Feature program.
