Robert Wyland’s depiction of ocean life was covered up for a World Cup promotion – now he wants retribution
My desk for the next several hours. Overwhelmed and thankful, honestly.

Here in Mexico City, protests, strikes and public unrest have understandably given some locals complicated feelings ahead of the opener tomorrow afternoon.
My story, on the Guardian: www.theguardian.com/football/202...
Hi friends, I'm on my way to Mexico City to cover the World Cup opener for the Guardian.
I'll be on the road for a month. I'll post here, but will also post a lot on IG - instagram.com/pablomaurer. I've made my profile public for now, if you want to follow along. Let's go, y'all.
In Dallas, legendary muralist Wyland had a massive, 82-foot "whaling wall" painted over in favor of a planned piece of World Cup artwork.

“This is a David and Goliath thing for sure,” said Wyland. “They are a multi-billion dollar [organization], and I am a single artist with a small foundation, But I tell you, they picked the wrong artist and the wrong artwork. I am not going to stand by and let them get away with this.” 🐋

This is a top story in Dallas - people are angry. It's way bigger than one artist.
NEW: Sergiño Dest enjoyed a bounceback (see: healthy) club season with PSV. As Bayern reportedly renews its interest, Dest is relishing a more advanced role in Mauricio Pochettino's USMNT.
