There are soccer coaches who believe that players having sex at the World Cup is a bad idea. They believe sex makes them less focused, less professional. Thankfully, USMNT coach Jurgen Klinsmann is not one of those guys. Klinsmann fielded a question about the subject in an interview with Fusion TV.
It comes on the heels of Mexico’s Miguel Herrera saying, “if a player can’t go one month or 20 days without having sexual relations, then they are not prepared to be a professional player.” Herrera hates boners, obviously.
Since most of you didn’t watch the video, allow me to paraphrase Jurgen Klinsmann.
U.S. players are welcome to bang their wives and girlfriends anytime they want. And if they want to hold massive orgies in the locker room, so be it.
Ok, maybe he didn’t say that verbatim but whatever, close enough.
