Who-steen-o

That's how you pronounce this guy's name, Justino Compean.

Who is he? Quite an influential person, actually. He's the Mexican Soccer Federation president and good friends with US Soccer President Sunil Gulati. The two have forged a meaningful relationship between the two federations and matches like February's US-Mexico game will likely be a regular occurrence just as Mexican club games in the U.S. will as well.

Anyway, he's the topic of my upcoming SI.com column. Look for that sometime tomorrow.
