The soccer-loving mayor who's ready to host the USA

San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie, an avid soccer fan and investor in 49ers Enterprises (which owns Leeds United), is preparing to host U.S. World Cup matches in the Bay Area. He aims to use major events like the World Cup and Super Bowl to revitalize San Francisco's image and attract visitors. The U.S. team's July 1 match will be held at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, though Lurie seeks to associate the event with San Francisco.
