As the FIFA World Cup at MetLife Stadium comes to a close, tonight's shoutout belongs to the dedicated medical professionals from the Meadowlands who helped keep hundreds of thousands of fans safe throughout the tournament.

For the past month, dozens of these professionals were stationed throughout the venue, prepared to respond at a moment's notice.
While fans remember the goals, it's worth recognizing the people who worked quietly behind the scenes to make it all possible.
