This level of access is huge in the field of sports. This will allow MLS to grow not only nationally but also internationally. Sports fans from all over the world will be able to follow our matches. We want the league to continue to grow and close the gap to other leagues, and this partnership with Apple is a step in the right direction. For the 2026 World Cup, we want to keep that momentum going and benefit from better media coverage, and I think this partnership will give us great moments. I know my family is thrilled to have access to all games on one platform and I think it will help the league and the game in the United States a lot.
