If we\u2019ve learned anything from this video it is that Conan O\u2019Brien is not built for soccer. The lanky 6-foot-4 late-night star played a pick-up game of soccer in Mexico City with Giovani Dos Santos, a member of the LA Galaxy and the Mexico national team. The two hit the pitch at Parque Pilares to play with the locals and afterwards reviewed O\u2019Brien\u2019s performance via Facebook Live. In the video, O\u2019Brien hypes his cat-like agility and Dos Santos gives him a Mexico national tema shit. But O\u2019Brein\u2019s\u00a0assistant Sona Movsesian remains unimpressed by her boss\u2019s soccer skills. \u201cI don\u2019t even think there\u2019s a way to sugar-coat it \u2013 he\u2019s just really bad at soccer,\u201d she says. \u201cBut he\u2019s also terrible at almost every sport he plays.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The stunt is part of O\u2019Brien\u2019s upcoming \u201cConan Without Borders,\u201d a special designed to celebrate Mexico and refute Trump\u2019s attacks on immigrants and plans for a border wall. In clips released so far, O\u2019Brien has solicited donations on the street for a border wall and played a masked Mexican wrestler. The episode is being filmed in Mexico City with an all-Mexican staff of producers, staff, audience and guests including Rogue One<\/em>\u2019s Diego Luna and former Mexican President Vicente Fox . \u201cConan Without Borders\u201d airs March 1 on TBS.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If we\u2019ve learned anything from this video it is that Conan O\u2019Brien is not built for soccer.
