Thierry Henry reflects on '98 World Cup win, sees bright future for U.S. soccer

Soccer legend Thierry Henry is looking back — and ahead. The World Cup champion and former Red Bulls star was in New Jersey for the opening of a new training facility, where he reflected on winning the 1998 World Cup at just 20 years old. Henry said he didn’t fully grasp the impact of that moment at the time, but now sees how powerful the sport can be for communities. Looking forward, Henry says the growth of facilities and player development in the U.S. gives American soccer a real shot at becoming a global power in the near future.
