Unfortunately, Wahl collapsed and died within a week of his announcement of being unwell.
“My body finally broke down on me. Three weeks of little sleep, high stress and lots of work can do that to you.
“What had been a cold over the last 10 days turned into something more severe on the night of the USA-Netherlands game, and I could feel my upper chest take on a new level of pressure and discomfort.
He added:
“I didn’t have Covid (I test regularly here), but I went into the medical clinic at the main media centre today, and they said I probably have bronchitis. They gave me a course of antibiotics and some heavy-duty cough syrup, and I’m already feeling a bit better just a few hours later. But still: No Bueno,” said the late US journalist.
The late United States journalist, Wahl, was among the famous soccer commentators in the country.
He covered his first World Cup tournament in 1994.
Wahl made a name for himself as one of the country’s best journalists following his book on David Beckham’s arrival in MLS and a well-crafted piece on NBA superstar Lebron James.
