New Balance is a brand I've loved dearly for my whole life.

And as if I couldn't love them more, they're now an official sponsor of the MIB Media Network.

And as it turns out, I'm not the only elite footballer they're sponsoring these days.

Bikai Osaka, Hendrik, Eberichieze, Jeremy Frimpong, legendary Hamas Rodriguez and our own beloved Tim Weyer.

They're all riding with New Balance these days.

We're the biggest summer in soccer, fast approaching.

I can't wait to see their incredible footballers paid their path on the world's biggest stage.

Whether it's Hendrik, cutting up opponents in his Tekela's or Bacca,

banging goals left and right in his furons we're here

because he's lived these moments.

team, leading them into the 2014 World Cup as he had Germany into the 2006 World Cup before

that. So now the draw is made. The opponents are known in the group stage, the physical journey

the team must live in the opening ground is clear down to the very last
