Dallas Tornado 1967: A Tour de Force

Over six months they crossed 30 countries, from Iran to Vietnam, playing 45 matches and surviving riots, bomb scares, and the chaos of a game still finding its feet in America. Led by Lamar Hunt and Bob Kap, this squad of amateurs helped lay the foundations for U.S. soccer — one unforgettable stop at a time.

A cult club in brown, still fighting the good fight on and off the pitch.
