MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - On the final day of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, as Argentina took on France thousands of miles away, inside the gymnasium at Maplewood's John Glenn Middle School the next generation of players here in Minnesota was paying close attention. "It was intense, and I was screaming," U10 athlete Felix Hook told FOX 9. "That was the best World Cup ever, it was awesome," Felix's father Nicholas added. For the many young athletes on hand this weekend, watching the game helped them learn the right way to play it.
