Hispanic Heritage: Marcelo Balboa’s Pride and Passion for Representing the USMNT
As U.S. Soccer celebrates Hispanic Heritage month, it is quite appropriate we profile Balboa's career. Balboa, who is of Argentinean heritage, is a three-time FIFA World Cup veteran (1990, 1994 and 1998), the first U.S. National Team player - man or woman - to reach 100 international appearances, a National Soccer Hall of Fame inductee, and an original member of Major League Soccer with the Colorado Rapids in 1996.
