Not Just for Players

Teams from all over the world are converging on Brazil this week, but they're not the only ones jetting in from around the globe. Officials from all different confederations have come to Brazil, including the U.S.' own Jason Krnac (all the way to the right in the picture). Jason is blogging for the ussoccer.com over at the Official Take blog, and you can follow his exploits in South America by clicking here. It's a perspective that you don't always get when you follow a major tournament, and it's easy to forget that these are huge events for officials as well. And while you're at it you can listen to ussoccer.com's Referee Week in Review with U.S. Soccer Manager of Assessment and Training Brian Hall.
