I found the host really charming- you can tell he has a lot of enthusiasm for the sport, the United States, and for the story. I give his energy 5 stars. The execution is excellent. He's got all the experts and celebrities in for interviews and really captures the drama that the men went through. However, I feel that the story itself is overblown. The way Roger carries on God think he was covering an election, not an over- hyped and underperforming sports team. I love soccer, but by the end of the series I was bored.
