The sudden and tragic passing of Grant Wahl on Friday sent shockwaves through the soccer community within the U.S. and globally. Before unpacking Saturday's exhilarating and historic World Cup action, Ian Paul Joy, Nigel Reo-Coker, Michael Lahoud and Jonathan Johnson pay tribute to their former colleague and a journalist whose words and actions meant so much to so many. All of us at CBS Sports offer our heartfelt condolences to Grant’s wife, Dr. Céline Gounder, his family and friends.
