WEBVTT 1 00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:26.719 You know it's a late night when it's another go 2 00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:29.559 round of SDH for Thursday thoughts, John, hear you there. 3 00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.439 I know it was a late night, and it was 4 00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:35.200 even later for those of us that were doing the 5 00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:37.719 postgame show, the full time report on ninety two nine 6 00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:39.479 the game of the Odyssey happened. It was even later 7 00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:43.320 for the team and for Mike and Jason as they 8 00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:47.399 were flying back. I'm guessing they might have gotten back 9 00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:50.759 into their own beds about five o'clock this morning. So 10 00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:54.399 it is a point on the road morning, Alex for 11 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:59.920 at Lane United, Jamal ti Array ninety plus two after 12 00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:05.239 a Brandon Vasquez free kick from about twenty four or 13 00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:09.439 five yards out. That on the air that that Abe 14 00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:11.280 did make a point to say in the postgame show, 15 00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:13.719 we thought that Brandon Vasquez was not going to have 16 00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.799 that one on target. It was well struck and that 17 00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:18.959 was a one the elead. We'll go for the numbers 18 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.359 and all of the the stats coming up here in 19 00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:24.959 just a little bit. Here's your layout for the morning. 20 00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:28.920 We're gonna We're not gonna waste a whole lot of 21 00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:32.280 time considering it is a double match week. Technically it's 22 00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:34.879 a triple match week with three games in eight days. 23 00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:39.599 Todd Lewis of the Free Kick Pod, which is attached 24 00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:46.359 to our friends in Philadelphia and Maryland's number one Philadelphia 25 00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:47.760 Union podcast. 26 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:49.120 They think is how I think? Is how it is? 27 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:49.799 I have to look it up. 28 00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:51.319 But Todd Lewis is gonna join us at the bottom 29 00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.920 of the hour and he's gonna break everything down. What 30 00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:58.840 happened with Philadelphia last night down to nil, tied it 31 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:02.400 to and then if someone forgot to Mark Ti Berrobo 32 00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:06.560 at ninety plus six. So LA found another way to 33 00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.120 lose last night in Philadelphia. So we'll go over what 34 00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:14.479 happened in Philly, and we'll go over what the anticipation is. 35 00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:16.039 We'll go over what the season has been like in 36 00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:18.439 Philly with the Bradley Carnell now being in charge and 37 00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:21.280 just how different it is. And we'll go over what 38 00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:25.120 happened last night, and we'll go over Atlanta. And so 39 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:27.919 we'll be kind of drifting in and out of what 40 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:31.280 happened with Atlanta and Austin and what's going to be 41 00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:35.000 happening with Atlanta in Philadelphia. Ten o'clock in ten thirty 42 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.120 is the Power Hour with Nino and Nico with Nino 43 00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:40.360 once again. You know Torres, our buddy from Goal TV. 44 00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:42.680 I have no earthly idea what he's bringing to the table. 45 00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:46.080 I have an idea, but I really don't know. So 46 00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:48.800 we'll find out when Nino joins us at ten and 47 00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:51.199 then at ten thirty we'll talk about a very very 48 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:56.039 busy night in Major League Soccer, especially on the left 49 00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:58.919 coast for MLS after dark. That did not include what 50 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:04.039 happened in Texas. It was a matchup that no surprise. 51 00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:07.199 If you had taken the over at five and a half, 52 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.000 you would have been in pretty good shape. With Messi 53 00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.840 and friends. In San Jose, Naxie Falcones scored in the 54 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:16.039 first minute. Chicho Roano was like, not so fast, my friend, 55 00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:18.479 Do I have a pencil? Do I have a pencil? No? 56 00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:19.280 Apparently I don't. 57 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:22.599 So then it was back and forth and it finished 58 00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:24.759 up at three to three and Liono Messi got a 59 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:29.759 yellow card for dissent after the final whistle. I'd like 60 00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:33.240 to thank the center f forgiving that because Leo Messi 61 00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.360 is my captain on my fantasy team this week, and 62 00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:41.120 you get docked points when you get a yellow, so 63 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:42.240 so far it's pretty safe. 64 00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:43.120 Margin in fantasy. 65 00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:48.000 But we'll go over what happened all of yesterday with Nico. 66 00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:49.759 We'll go around the planet with Nino. 67 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:53.639 We'll talk about Philadelphia and what happened last night, and 68 00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.039 Philadelphia and what anticipates happening on the weekend with Todd Lewis, 69 00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:57.759 and we'll talk about it. 70 00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:58.960 Landy knighted at Austin. 71 00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:03.159 Here as we get you ready for the next twenty minutes, reminder, 72 00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.159 it's going to be another session of soccer is in 73 00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:09.120 session presented by our friends at Kaiser Permanente. 74 00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:09.560 At noon. 75 00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:11.560 We're going to try and catch up with as many 76 00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.319 champions from yesterday as possible. We do know Judson Hamby 77 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:15.800 from a Cony County is going to join us at 78 00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:19.160 twelve fifteen. Kick off of that show is at noon 79 00:04:19.720 --> 00:04:22.480 Judson Hamby at twelve fifteen. We have reached out to 80 00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:25.120 coach Kerns at Love It Into Frank Zamora at Johnson 81 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:26.879 gainsl and we'll see if they can join us in 82 00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:29.160 the noon hour and break it all down with what 83 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.600 happened yesterday with championships. We'll go over brackets and let 84 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.959 you know what's going on today. Jarrett and I will 85 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.439 be at mckeecheren for the six A Finals at five 86 00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:44.639 and seven thirty Walton and Beauford, and it is on 87 00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:48.319 the boys' side in six A it is going to 88 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.639 be Campbell and Grayson. So we'll catch up, we'll catch 89 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.079 up with all your brackets, we'll get ready for your matchups, 90 00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:57.079 all that stuff, and it's going to be a busy 91 00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:59.079 day on the NFHS network. But like I said, Jarrett 92 00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:00.480 and I are going to be upt McKeay and giving 93 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.560 you the six A Finals at five and seven thirty. 94 00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.439 So if you are so inclined and you want to 95 00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:09.680 go sit in the sun at mckeechern, because apparently, according 96 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.199 to our buddy Justin Hanover, you can't sit under the 97 00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:17.519 press box because they are addressing some structural issues at 98 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:20.920 Cantrell Stadium and Dorsey Field. So everybody's sitting in the 99 00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:26.079 sun over across from the press box and so that's 100 00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.759 why you see the stands being what they are, split 101 00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:30.879 down the middle at fifty to fifty on the far 102 00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.600 side over at mc keechen. Jessica Charman was on a 103 00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:35.879 part of the call yesterday. She was doing the private matchups. 104 00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:38.879 Ais goes back to back on the boy's side, love 105 00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:41.519 It beats GAC on the girl's side. That was probably 106 00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:44.360 a bit of a shocker and in some circles, but 107 00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.480 love It gets the one nil win. Johnson gaines Will 108 00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.079 gets the one nil win against Northwest Whitfield. Talk about 109 00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:51.279 all that at noon and we'll break all of that 110 00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:54.000 stuff down and we'll try and track down coaches and 111 00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:57.360 get you ready for what's going on today later today 112 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.639 on tape that'll be released on the weekend, We're going 113 00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:03.439 to catch up with the USLW League Tormentous side and 114 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:07.519 find out what's going on there with their season getting underway. 115 00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:10.839 Sporting Jackson's season got underway for those of you here 116 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:12.839 in the Southeastern footprint, and they played their first match 117 00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:17.439 at gene Cox Stadium in Tallahassee yesterday against the Reckoning 118 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.240 I believe is the team name there in Tallahassee. So 119 00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:23.360 Sporting Jack's got two goals in a hurry and I 120 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:24.920 think they ended up with the Duke. So it's a 121 00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.120 successful day for Sporting Jacks. They unveil their jerseys, they 122 00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:32.120 unveil their their squads, and they're often running. So that's 123 00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:34.720 all that we got going on today. Tomorrow once again 124 00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:38.360 is the standard tomorrow where we get you ready for 125 00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:40.519 the weekend. We'll go back over juice boxes and we'll 126 00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.439 get you ready for everything more in depth and previews 127 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:44.879 and things like that, and we'll get you ready for 128 00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:47.319 Atlanta nighted on the quick turn as they're going up 129 00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:50.920 against Philadelphia. That one is on Saturday night at seven 130 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.399 thirty translation seven forty, and we'll break up that one 131 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:56.600 all down for you. So all right, let's get into 132 00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:02.639 what happened last night. And it was once again an 133 00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:06.079 Atlanta United in control for say, you know, thirty minutes 134 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:11.360 or up until the hydration break, and you had three 135 00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:13.959 key passes from Latte Lot, you had a couple of 136 00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.639 chances on net, you had one from you had a 137 00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:20.120 couple from Alexi, you had one from Ronald Hernandez. And 138 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.399 then at the hydration break, then it turned into pretty 139 00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:26.360 much everything in Philadelphia, I mean, Phillip while that's that's 140 00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:30.759 a Freudian slip, but everything Austin. So let's go back 141 00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:36.519 and we'll take a peek at the numbers and I 142 00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:38.680 get to do I get to do my ever popular 143 00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:45.040 sharing of the sharing of the screen. And so we'll 144 00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:47.959 go over control and we'll go over all the stats 145 00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.839 and everything. Starting lineups on the day, it was kind 146 00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:52.399 of like a It was listed as a five to 147 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:56.240 four to one for Atlanta United Brad Gazanne and Net 148 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:59.519 left to right, Ronald Hernandez, three center backs Luisa Brahm, 149 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.120 Derek w Adams, No Cobb, Matt Edwards at you're right back. 150 00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:08.000 Four in the midfield Midan Chook, Click Sleish and Almaron. 151 00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:11.199 So it wasn't like a five. It wasn't like a 152 00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:14.040 At times it could have been a five two three five, 153 00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:16.000 you know, five four one ish kind of a thing. 154 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.759 In Latte, Lot was at top, a couple of changes 155 00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:21.360 for Austin coming from the weekend Brad Stuver and Net 156 00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:26.079 left to right, Bureau Cascant, Spatalk and John Gallaher. Then 157 00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:29.360 it was the midfield of Sabovich, Ilia and owen Wolf, 158 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:33.120 and up top it was your three dps Osman Bukari, 159 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:36.759 Us Open Cup hero, Brandon Vasquez and Mirto Zuni. So 160 00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:38.399 it was a five four to one lining up against 161 00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:42.000 the four three three. Now let's get into the stats 162 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:45.159 of the day and the way that it all. 163 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.759 Broke down. Where's my stats? 164 00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:51.639 You said, the man's looking for stats and he ends 165 00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:55.519 up looking and getting other things. Okay, So fifty one 166 00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:58.600 forty nine, according to our friends at SOFA, score was 167 00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:01.919 the time of possession or the possession that was there 168 00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:06.000 XG or if you are abex the XG that he 169 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.320 doesn't pay attention to. Considering that the x ABE was 170 00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:11.679 one and one XG for Atlanti United one point three 171 00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:13.320 to three for Austin, it was a point eight two 172 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:17.519 big chances for Atlanta one for Austin. Eighteen total shots 173 00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:21.480 for Austin compared to eight for Atlanti United. Four saves 174 00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:25.440 by each brad, fourteen corner kicks total nine for Austin. 175 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:32.639 Twenty fouls, which was under the standard number from Malik Badawi. 176 00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:35.480 Malik Badalwi traditionally calls in the neighborhood of twenty five, 177 00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:39.720 but he called twenty and he ended up with just 178 00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:42.440 the one yellow card against Atlanta United. 179 00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:44.720 On the day, you had. 180 00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:49.000 Twenty three kicks ten each side, fourteen tackles eight for Austin. 181 00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:52.399 So it was eight and six on the day. So 182 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:57.759 for individuals for Atlanta United, top numbers were shared by 183 00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:01.519 Latte Lott and Aleximi Donchuk. So Latte Lot on the 184 00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.000 day played fifty seven minutes, and keep an eye on 185 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.879 the minutes that were played last night in Austin and 186 00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:13.120 how it might translate to the weekend against Philadelphia. Latze 187 00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:16.480 Lot played fifty seven one shot off target, five of 188 00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:21.399 seven passing, and it was three key passes. So five 189 00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:23.600 of seven passing and three of them were key passes. 190 00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.360 But latte Lot only had five passes on the day. 191 00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.279 We need to figure out how many touches he had 192 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.960 as a part of all of that. But five of 193 00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:37.080 seven passing, three key passes, completed four of six on 194 00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:40.919 these aerial duels, and that was it for latte Lot. 195 00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:45.519 Alexi Medonchuk on the day played eighty four minutes and 196 00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:47.559 he was twenty four to twenty seven passing in eighty 197 00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:52.320 nine percent. One cross that was long, that long switch 198 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.000 that created an opportunity, so he had the one shot 199 00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:58.759 on target. He had the one shot blocked on one 200 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:01.240 of his two aerials duels on the day, had the 201 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:05.399 one block shot on his own as well. So you 202 00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.120 look at Miguel Almeron on the day, Miggy played ninety minutes, 203 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.200 and I think that'll be one of the questions heading 204 00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:16.399 forward into the matchup against Philadelphia. Is that with Miggy 205 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:18.639 having played ninety and then on the quick turn, then 206 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:21.679 do you sit there and as you tried to get 207 00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:24.440 points on the road. Is Mickey on the roster in 208 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:30.360 the game day eighteen or is I guess is twofold? 209 00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.039 Is Miggy starting and is he in the game day eighteen? 210 00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:36.480 I would probably say no, Comma, yes, if you need 211 00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:39.720 Niggy to come in late, considering the minutes and the 212 00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:42.039 heat and all of that stuff, I would probably say 213 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:44.879 my gut tells me that Miggy is going to be 214 00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:47.480 coming off the bench in this matchup against Philly, just 215 00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:49.279 because of the minutes and the stress on the body 216 00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:51.879 and all that kind of stuff. So of twenty four 217 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:54.080 to twenty nine passing for Miggy, two key passes on 218 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:58.279 the one cross and it was two shots on target, 219 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:01.639 the one for three on the dribble, one big chance 220 00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.840 missed and that was when the ball was sent over 221 00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:07.919 the top early by Alexi Midnchuk and he had the 222 00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:12.120 run in on Steuver and instead of uh, you know, 223 00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:15.279 turning it out to the left maybe and drawing Steuver 224 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:17.720 further out, it was a straight line and Mickey shoots 225 00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:20.879 it straight into Brad Steuver with his right foot, So 226 00:12:21.000 --> 00:12:24.879 three of seven on ground duels and he was fouled once, 227 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:27.600 two clearances, two picks in a tackle for Miggy. Playing 228 00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:30.679 the full ninety minutes, once again, Sleash and Click in 229 00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:34.159 the midfield, you're as you're two holdings thirty two to 230 00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.960 thirty nine passing for Bartows. Sleish had the one long ball, 231 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:42.399 five of eight on his duels, fouled twice, two clearances, 232 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:47.120 three picks and two times dribbled past matteas Click played 233 00:12:47.159 --> 00:12:48.159 fifty seven minutes. 234 00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:49.799 Keep an eye on that. 235 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:53.559 Also for the weekend twenty one to twenty four, passing 236 00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:56.879 eighty eight percent, two key passes on the day, one 237 00:12:56.919 --> 00:12:59.600 long ball completed, one big chance, created two of four 238 00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:04.080 on his wells, fouled twice, one pick and two times 239 00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:07.120 dribbled past. So then once again your back line Ronald 240 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:10.840 hernandez Lusa, Brahm, Derek Williams, Noah Cobb and Matt Edwards. 241 00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:14.279 Matt Edwards was our player of the match for playing 242 00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:17.320 the full ninety minutes and thugging it out as he said, so, 243 00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:19.960 I guess that might be the phrase, going forward and 244 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.720 trying to grind out a result, do not be surprised, 245 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:28.879 once again monitoring the health of Brooks, Lennon and Pedro 246 00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:32.639 Amador if Matt Edwards does not put in minutes again 247 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:38.159 against Philadelphia this weekend. Two clearances for Matt Edwards, one 248 00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:42.000 total tackle too. He won a one duel on the 249 00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:44.440 air and one in the ground. Thirty two to thirty 250 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.919 seven passing for Matt Edwards had one long ball on 251 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:51.960 the day. But Matt Edwards basically he was a right back. 252 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:55.320 Then he was a right center back. He was at 253 00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:57.159 right wing. I mean it was all over the place, 254 00:13:57.320 --> 00:13:59.480 especially in the second half when you're trying to create things. 255 00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:03.399 Same for Jay Fortune. You had Jay as a left 256 00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:07.120 back at one point. As they were they went from 257 00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:10.039 five at the back to four. Jay drifted back and 258 00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:13.960 from his left back position he would go left wing, 259 00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:16.919 left back, left wing, left wing, left wing. 260 00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:18.840 Back, and left back. He literally would be up. 261 00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:21.360 And down the left hand side when he came in 262 00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:25.600 as a substitute. So Noah Cobb some of the highlights there. 263 00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:27.759 Noah won every duel in the air. He was four 264 00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:31.000 of nine overall. He had one block. Nine clearances for 265 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:34.879 Noah Cop nine clearances for Noah Cop forty three of 266 00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:38.360 fifty passing at eighty six percent, six of eleven on 267 00:14:38.440 --> 00:14:42.799 long balls. Derek Williams, who put in just under seventy minutes, 268 00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:46.519 had six clearances himself two picks, one tackle, two of 269 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:48.200 three in the air or two of three on his 270 00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.639 duels twenty seven to thirty one passing two of four 271 00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:54.480 on long balls for Derek Williams and then Luisa Brahm 272 00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:59.279 on the day ninety minutes seven clearances, So if my 273 00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:02.720 math is right, that's twenty one clearances by your three 274 00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:07.279 center back. Yesterday Noah Cobb leading with nine one block shot. 275 00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:10.799 It was a three of six on the duels for 276 00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:14.600 Luisa Bram thirty five of forty two passing at eighty 277 00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:17.440 three percent, four of eight on long balls from Louise 278 00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.080 in the matchup against Austin and so Brad's numbers just 279 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:23.840 to give you Brad Guzan's numbers, not to be confused 280 00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:28.320 with Brad Steuver ninety minutes, four saves, one high claim, 281 00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:30.440 two saves from inside the box, twenty three to thirty 282 00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:33.480 on his passes at seventy seven, ten of seventeen on 283 00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:36.360 long balls in the outlets and had the one clearance 284 00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:39.399 on the day, so that was your numbers with Brad Guzant. 285 00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:43.679 So that was how it was with the starters once again, 286 00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:49.240 remember Jay Fortune came in and gave you thirty five minutes. 287 00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:52.799 Ish came in for Ronald Hernandez in case you need 288 00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.399 Ronald to start again on Sunday, so Jay got minutes 289 00:15:56.759 --> 00:15:59.919 to keep every keep the engine turned over. Ronald gives 290 00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:03.279 you fifty six. Tristan Mulliam Bob basically the same thing. 291 00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:06.240 He was a part of that triple change. Tristan Mullion 292 00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:09.399 Bach came in and for gave you fifty seven, and 293 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:11.919 then Matteas Click ended up giving you fifty seven minutes, 294 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.840 so fifty seven and thirty three, so Mulliam Bob gives 295 00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:15.399 you thirty three. 296 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:18.080 Click gives you fifty seven. Jamal the same. 297 00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.919 It was thirty three from Jamal and then it was 298 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:25.679 fifty seven for Latte Lot Saba came in gave you 299 00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:27.519 twenty for Derek Williams, and that was a part of 300 00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:30.720 that where Jay Fortune ends up drifting back to be 301 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:34.799 your left back in that back four. And then Edwin 302 00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:37.639 Musquette came in for a cup of coffee a handful 303 00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:42.240 of minutes, taking over for Alexei Midanchuk late six plus stoppage, 304 00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.440 Evyan Morales, Will Riley and Leoc Brennan did not play. 305 00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:47.720 Keep an eye on them as maybe possibly being the 306 00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:52.840 first ones off the bench on the weekend. Obviously Game 307 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:55.440 State has a lot to do with that, but you know, 308 00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:59.440 you're looking at how it could line itself up when 309 00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:03.399 it comes to the weekend, but just monitoring minutes, monitoring folks, 310 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:05.160 and trying to figure out what it's going to look 311 00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:07.279 like against Philadelphia. So we'll keep an eye on that. Now, 312 00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:10.079 this is what I wanted to show. I'm gonna do 313 00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:14.440 the magical screen sharing thing that I have learned to 314 00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:19.480 do and probably drive you crazy. So here is now 315 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:20.880 it's going to be on the left hand side of 316 00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:24.359 your screen for those of you who are watching live 317 00:17:24.519 --> 00:17:29.279 on our YouTube channel. But here is the momentum chart 318 00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.599 off to the left hand side of the screen. And 319 00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:37.880 in the first once again thirty minutes or so, first 320 00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:43.200 thirty minutes or so, you're looking at fairly even distribution 321 00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:48.720 of momentum Austin Atlanta. Austin had prolonged except for the 322 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:52.519 one stretch then Atlanta had prolonged, and then you end 323 00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:55.480 up getting to the hydration break and then basically from 324 00:17:55.519 --> 00:18:04.599 the hydration break until well after the Brandon Vasquez goal. 325 00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:06.960 So the Brandon Vasquez goal, it's attack momentum. 326 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:07.359 I get that. 327 00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:10.599 So the Brandon Vasquez goal happens at fifty seven, so 328 00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:14.839 then probably add another fifteen so you get into the 329 00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:18.480 mid mid seventies. Then it's at Lanty United in the 330 00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.160 ascendancy as I'm fairly certain that Austin was trying to 331 00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:23.920 just figure out how to navigate the heat and get 332 00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:26.599 out with three points. And then you end up with 333 00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:30.400 at Landy United getting the equalizer at ninety plus two, 334 00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.480 when Austin had the momentum when it came to the attack. 335 00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:36.640 So once again there's that one section in the middle 336 00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:43.160 from thirty to say seventy, I would probably say sixty 337 00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:46.720 five or seventy if you have this long stretch of 338 00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:49.000 attack momentum from Austin, and I know that that's what 339 00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:50.599 a lot of you are looking at this morning. But 340 00:18:50.599 --> 00:18:54.799 at Landy United after that, they after the substitutions came in, 341 00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:58.680 you end up with the fresher legs and Niko Steves 342 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:03.920 did not respond with substitutions until later then late when 343 00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:06.359 he was trying to make sure that he could come 344 00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:09.000 out of it with a point, and his substitutions didn't 345 00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:11.799 start until there were ten minutes to go. You see 346 00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:15.319 Jean Kolmanicic and Jeter Obrion, they both came in with 347 00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.240 eleven to go, stepping out for Wolf and Bukari Dubusarski 348 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:20.400 came in with five to go along with CJ. Fodri 349 00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:24.359 and then Diego Rubio for mirto Uzuni. Literally it was 350 00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:27.160 a cup of coffee, and so Rubio came in for 351 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.119 a couple of minutes because they're getting ready for Vancouver 352 00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:32.319 this weekend, and that's why you see folks like Brendan 353 00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:36.039 hinz Ike not getting minutes. But the biggest thing, once again, 354 00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:39.759 that momentum we always talk about, even Steve until the 355 00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:44.720 hydration break, then the long version of Austin being in 356 00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:48.640 control the goal and then beyond and then Atlanta United 357 00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.759 taking over in say the final twenty five minutes or so. 358 00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:56.599 And then so if the goals at fifty seven and 359 00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:59.400 you sit there in extend so like seventy so maybe yeah, 360 00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:03.000 twenty minutes to go, you're staring at Landy United from 361 00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:07.640 say thirty to seventy not having any momentum, and then 362 00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:12.079 from seventy basically until late eighties, early nineties plus the 363 00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:15.440 goal was when they had the momentum late. But the 364 00:20:15.440 --> 00:20:18.279 bottom line is the end of the day to one 365 00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:21.319 one draw? Was it pretty No? Is there a lot 366 00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:21.759 to work on? 367 00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:22.079 Yes? 368 00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:25.799 And so that's what you're staring at with Atlanta United. 369 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:28.359 So we've had another a successful edition of screen sharing. 370 00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:29.240 I think. 371 00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:35.799 I don't know if we successfully used a ropodope. I think, honestly, 372 00:20:35.839 --> 00:20:38.519 that's what Austin was trying to do when they had 373 00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:41.880 the one goal lead. David, I think that Austin was 374 00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:44.920 trying to get out of dodge and you know, the 375 00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:50.319 mid to high nineties heat and or humidity, the twelve 376 00:20:50.359 --> 00:20:52.279 mile an hour breeze, I'm sure was not doing a 377 00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:55.200 whole lot of good for anybody except for those who 378 00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.519 are looking at it from inside the press box. But 379 00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:03.519 it was it was an adventure. It was an adventure. 380 00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:06.640 You got a point on the road, and Bart to 381 00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:10.559 your point. Bart says that Noah was man of the match, 382 00:21:13.000 --> 00:21:16.039 hustled the whole night, tenacity, positivity, still a lot to learn, 383 00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:18.640 love giving him the chance to learn. End game and 384 00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:22.640 this is and you take from Bart's point, you take Noah, 385 00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:28.359 you take Matt, and you take j as a part 386 00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:31.759 of this learning tree that we have with Atlanta United 387 00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:35.319 young player, young player, young player from the system, from 388 00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:41.079 the system, from the system, And you know, it was 389 00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:44.440 it was right there with with Noah and Matt, and 390 00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:48.640 I think that it was with Matt, and literally it was. 391 00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:51.000 It was almost was a three way dance, but you 392 00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:54.200 ended up with me trying to figure out among the 393 00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:56.599 three of them who it was going to be. Gave 394 00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:00.519 it to Matt because of Matt and his continued energy, 395 00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:03.440 and it was reinforced. If you haven't had the chance 396 00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:04.880 to go back and listen to the full time report 397 00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:06.680 over at ninety nine of the game in the Odyssey app, 398 00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:12.599 I would listen to Jason's interview with Matt and how 399 00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:15.079 Matt broke it all down and how I guess, like 400 00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.160 I said, the rally cry now is to thug it out. 401 00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:20.400 And so that's what they that's what they were trying 402 00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:21.880 to do. They were trying to grind out a result 403 00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:26.279 on the road. And it was, you know, one of 404 00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:31.759 those where Matt was grinding, Noah was grinding, and Jay 405 00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:34.000 was going to give you whatever he could wherever you 406 00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:37.720 needed him to be. So it was really cool as 407 00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:41.839 we have covered these athletes from the time that they 408 00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:45.759 started in the academy and such, so it will be 409 00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:47.880 like I said it was, it was a tough one, 410 00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:49.839 but I gave it to Matt considering also late in 411 00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.400 the match when he ain't got nothing left. He is 412 00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:54.319 still out there and he is grinding, and he's trying 413 00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:57.720 to exalt his teammates and push everybody forward into continuing 414 00:22:57.759 --> 00:23:01.240 to you know, try and stay as sharp as possible 415 00:23:01.279 --> 00:23:03.960 with only a handful of minutes to go. So yeah, 416 00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:06.720 it was it was a tight call, but I did 417 00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:08.640 give it to Matt Edwards. Let me say hi to 418 00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:11.160 everybody before Todd Lewis hops in here and joins us. 419 00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:13.200 Morning, Alex, good evening. 420 00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:16.920 Bam Bam is in one of those times of the 421 00:23:16.960 --> 00:23:18.880 week where he gets to watch his before he goes 422 00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.480 to bed down in Australia.

Yes, Abby, 437 00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:11.480 frustrating with the non ability to score with a one 438 00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:14.160 on one with a goalie. Yeah, and it was Miggy 439 00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:17.400 going into the defender and Brad Steuver and he's trying 440 00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:19.839 to push it past with the right That was it 441 00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:21.160 was very very UNMIGGI. 442 00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:24.519 Then let's see. 443 00:24:24.519 --> 00:24:31.039 So morning Pars, Morning David, and uh thank you Bart, 444 00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:33.200 me and graphics. Just trying to figure out how to 445 00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:35.880 get things done and do screen share. All right, we're 446 00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:39.759 pushing nine to thirty, so not that we're putting Atlanta 447 00:24:39.799 --> 00:24:44.160 and Austin in the rear view mirror completely, but on 448 00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:47.119 a three matches in eight days kind of a thing. 449 00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:50.480 We've got to kind of look forward, and this is 450 00:24:50.519 --> 00:24:52.759 what we always like to do with our oppo research 451 00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:55.440 as they as they say in politics, if I remember 452 00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:59.160 my political science major correctly, when you're trying to do 453 00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:02.759 opposition re research, they just called it oppo research. And 454 00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:04.799 so now it's time to do some opo researcher. Buddy 455 00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:08.880 Dave Leno is calling the ACC Track and Field Championships. 456 00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:11.920 So he won the toss and deferred, and this is 457 00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:14.119 where we bring in Todd Lewis from the Free Kick Pod. 458 00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:17.559 And Todd first and foremost, you've been a busy man 459 00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:19.759 this morning.

And so yeah, when you have exciting 466 00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:37.200 games like that, of course people want to talk about it. 467 00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:39.920 People obviously don't get a lot of sleep because all 468 00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:43.720 that's on the mine is wow, ninety six minute game 469 00:25:43.759 --> 00:25:46.960 winning goal. And you mentioned Dave Leonard there for your 470 00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:48.920 listeners who haven't heard that call. What a call by 471 00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:51.319 Dave Leonard last night on ninety seven to five The Fanatic, 472 00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:54.720 the Union's radio broadcast partnership. 473 00:25:54.279 --> 00:25:57.319 Hitting man all of the promo points. Absolutely out of 474 00:25:57.319 --> 00:25:58.839 the blocks, you're hitting all of those problems. 475 00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:01.200 Yeah, Dave, Dave David would definitely appreciate that. 476 00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:05.319 But Dave Leonard is such a legend and grateful for 477 00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:07.559 the opportunity for him recommending me to come on the 478 00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:09.559 show and talk to you John for this upcoming game 479 00:26:09.599 --> 00:26:11.720 against Lentin nun named Philadelphia Union. 480 00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:13.480 No worries all right. 481 00:26:13.640 --> 00:26:16.720 So for those that were locked in with MLS after 482 00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:20.960 Dark and Atlanta and Austin Q two, I want to 483 00:26:21.000 --> 00:26:24.720 go over what happened last night and we were stunned. 484 00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:29.480 I was pulled into pre and postgame duty and it 485 00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.759 was looking at the grid and we're sitting there saying, okay, 486 00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:34.200 score here, score here, score here. 487 00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:35.119 Holy crap. 488 00:26:35.880 --> 00:26:38.400 You know it ends up his two nil out of 489 00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:42.640 the blocks with Quavis and Fagundez scoring. Run through the 490 00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:44.920 We'll run through it forty five minutes at a time. 491 00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:48.440 So the first forty five minutes lag has surprised. I'm 492 00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:51.119 sure everyone on this and every other planet in the 493 00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:53.039 Solar System putting two goals on the board. 494 00:26:53.119 --> 00:26:53.720 What happened. 495 00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:57.240 Yeah, I think even those Philadelphia Union players would have 496 00:26:57.240 --> 00:27:01.119 been stunned too, just you know, Galaxy sitting back in 497 00:27:01.119 --> 00:27:03.480 the low block and the Union struggling to break that down. 498 00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:05.519 And I'm sure we'll get into this a little bit 499 00:27:05.519 --> 00:27:08.400 when we preview the match, but Philadelphia leads the league 500 00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:11.599 in crosses and so brotherly Cornell never wants the players 501 00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:13.759 to go away from that just sending crosses into the box. 502 00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:15.880 And so that's what we saw a lot of by 503 00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:19.440 the Union last night. In La Galaxy did a good job, 504 00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:21.880 you know, and just clearing away those chances. You would 505 00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:23.720 have hoped or wished for a little bit more attacking 506 00:27:23.839 --> 00:27:26.039 down the middle, and that never really came in the 507 00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:28.599 first half, and the two chances for La Galaxy and 508 00:27:28.720 --> 00:27:31.599 two goals for Galaxy, they turned the Union over and 509 00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:34.759 transition from the Union going in offense and now they're 510 00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:37.599 quickly transitioning to defense. For the first goal and then 511 00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:40.680 the second goal, it's just a poor clearance in Galaxy 512 00:27:40.759 --> 00:27:44.079 keeping pressure on the Union in the Union's defensive half 513 00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:46.000 of the field, and before you know it, it's two zero, 514 00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:48.720 and so that was only the second time this season 515 00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:51.440 that the Union had given up the first goal at 516 00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:54.279 super Park, in the second time this season at super 517 00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:56.599 Park that the Union had been trailing, And so it 518 00:27:56.680 --> 00:27:58.880 was going to be interesting to see the mindset of 519 00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:01.440 this team into the credit of the players to Brodley 520 00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:02.759 Cornell and his coaching staff. 521 00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:05.000 You score two goals. 522 00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:08.000 Coming out at halftime in that's the exact response that 523 00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:09.839 Brolly Cornell would have won it from his players. 524 00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:12.880 Yeah, and you know you mentioned those those two goals 525 00:28:12.880 --> 00:28:17.160 that broke it down. It's like, you turn away from halftime, 526 00:28:17.200 --> 00:28:20.759 it's like we're doing the show and everything. It's like, okay, 527 00:28:20.839 --> 00:28:23.519 so we start the pregame show and it's two nil. 528 00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:25.279 We got a half time. We it's a half time 529 00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:27.000 and it's two nil, and the world is shocked. And 530 00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:28.599 then all of a sudden, right at the end of 531 00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:30.799 our pregame show, it's like and it's too too and 532 00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:33.160 the world has come back to normal and we're waiting 533 00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:36.440 for what's going on with lag Uh. You know, you 534 00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:39.559 get that kind of a response. And we're to the 535 00:28:39.599 --> 00:28:42.039 point now and I'll discuss this more with Nico Madeno 536 00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:45.359 in the ten thirty segment where we kind of take 537 00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:48.200 the tour of Major League Soccer where lag to me, 538 00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.400 I don't know if they can find any other ways 539 00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:54.799 to lose. I don't know if we're trying to encourage 540 00:28:54.799 --> 00:28:57.200 them finding other ways to lose to get to ten, 541 00:28:57.279 --> 00:28:59.599 you know, ten and three and beyond. But the black 542 00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:03.960 cloud there, Schlepprock is there, It's droopy dog. It is 543 00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:06.680 just everything where that You're just kind of sitting there, going, man, 544 00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:07.880 how's it gonna happen? 545 00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:11.799 And how do you leave? How do you leave. 546 00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:14.759 Tybara Boat alone? And actually he wasn't alone, he had 547 00:29:14.759 --> 00:29:17.839 a teammate with him. How do you have an unbalanced 548 00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:21.880 number of LA Galaxy defenders trying to mark or not 549 00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:25.480 mark at the back post late as Philadelphia is chasing 550 00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:26.000 a game winner? 551 00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:27.480 How does this happen? Todd? 552 00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:29.839 Yeah, I guess, I mean you talked about it. This 553 00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:33.279 is a bad LA Galaxy team gets beat or humiliated 554 00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:37.920 by Red Bulls over the weekend. Seven zero the historic 555 00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:41.119 numbles numbers for this team where they are off to 556 00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:43.759 the worst start ever in MLS history for a defending team, 557 00:29:43.839 --> 00:29:45.880 and just when you think you can't get any worse, 558 00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:48.200 it gets worse where they defend so well on the 559 00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:48.680 first half. 560 00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:50.519 It's so crazy. It's like what happened. 561 00:29:50.559 --> 00:29:52.359 Like you guys had a strict game plan in the 562 00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:55.359 first half, you guys executed it well. And maybe it's 563 00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:57.759 a credit to you, Bradley Crannell and his coaching staff 564 00:29:57.759 --> 00:29:59.599 for tinkering with things a little bit and just having 565 00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:01.359 that belief from the players to go out there and 566 00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:04.039 get the job done. And I think maybe a little 567 00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:06.839 bit of a pissed off emotion from the players for Okay, 568 00:30:06.839 --> 00:30:09.000 we shouldn't be down two zero at home. This is 569 00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:12.079 a really bad La Galaxy team. And yeah, maybe it's 570 00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:14.440 just a whole bunch of different mix of emotions. But 571 00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:17.640 like you said, I mean, ninety six minute, you give 572 00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:20.119 up a goal at the back post. You know the 573 00:30:20.200 --> 00:30:22.079 Union are gonna send in a cross there. They've been 574 00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:24.640 doing it all game, and you decide, Okay, I don't 575 00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:26.880 know how to defend across this time. I mean, wow, 576 00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:29.920 I I don't know if we ever seeing anything like 577 00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:33.319 this ever again. John, a team a defending MLS champion 578 00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:34.359 be this bet. 579 00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:38.680 Yeah, it's just you know, you're you. Yeah, Yamane ends 580 00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:42.599 up with with Yamane face the week before in the 581 00:30:42.680 --> 00:30:45.799 loss of Sporting where that turns into its own gift 582 00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:47.599 and every and meme and everything, and. 583 00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:49.079 Now you have what happened last night. 584 00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:51.880 So so was it Is it just something as simple 585 00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:53.680 as being pissed off? Do you think it's like, we 586 00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:55.880 shouldn't be down to nil and they flip the switch 587 00:30:55.880 --> 00:30:57.720 and they're like, all right, yep, we're gonna we're gonna 588 00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:59.039 take care of this crap right here. 589 00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:01.039 And now, Yeah, I do think it is a little 590 00:31:01.079 --> 00:31:04.799 bit of that. And I'll remind your listeners. A couple 591 00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:07.240 of days before this game, the Union were winning late 592 00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:09.440 against Columbus Crew two one. They give up a late, late, 593 00:31:09.519 --> 00:31:11.880 late game time goal in the ninety third minute. I 594 00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:13.599 believe it was off of a set piece, and so 595 00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:17.240 I think, wow, this team was so close to beating 596 00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:19.640 one of the best teams in MLS and Columbus Crew, 597 00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:22.119 and now instead of beating them. Now it's been five 598 00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:24.440 straight games in all competitions that the Union haven't had 599 00:31:24.440 --> 00:31:26.559 a win against Columbus Crew, and so they were so 600 00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:29.319 close to finally getting over that line and beating the Crew, 601 00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:31.480 and then they give up that late goal, and so yeah, 602 00:31:31.480 --> 00:31:33.519 that has to sting a little bit, and then to 603 00:31:33.640 --> 00:31:36.119 go down to nail against La Galaxy, It's like. 604 00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:37.319 What is happening here? 605 00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:39.640 Yes, we've taken care of the teams that we're supposed 606 00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:41.880 to beat. Your Atlanta unit and tru DC unit and 607 00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:44.599 your Montreal and that started a three game winning streak 608 00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:47.160 for this team, and the momentums back with this team. 609 00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:50.720 And then they go into penalty kicks against Indy eleven, 610 00:31:50.920 --> 00:31:53.359 they come out, have a good response against Columbus, and 611 00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:55.519 then you go down against Galaxy and it's like, Wow, 612 00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:58.839 those three wins we had against Atlanta, DC and Montreal, 613 00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:01.319 was it all for nothing? And credit to the team, 614 00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:03.119 Credit to the coaching staff for coming out here and 615 00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:06.400 correcting the issues against the Galaxy and coming away with 616 00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:07.839 all three points. 617 00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:14.799 So, Bradley Carnell from your perspective, how different is he 618 00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:20.559 and his style inserted into the Philadelphia Union way that 619 00:32:20.599 --> 00:32:22.240 we were used to seeing with Jim Kurtin. 620 00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:25.200 Is it a twist, is it a tweak? How much 621 00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:26.400 of a twist or a tweak? Is it? 622 00:32:26.440 --> 00:32:31.119 How different are things systemically with Bradley Carnell in charge 623 00:32:31.119 --> 00:32:32.119 as it was in the past. 624 00:32:32.799 --> 00:32:34.319 Yeah, it's pretty different. 625 00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:37.119 I would say for multiple reasons, and I guess the 626 00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:40.240 number one is Jim Curtain had said it the last 627 00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:43.519 couple of years that they really didn't have the players 628 00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:46.079 to play the pressing style that earns. 629 00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:46.359 Ten and won it. 630 00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:49.880 You would would remember in twenty nineteen twenty twenty, the 631 00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:52.279 Union were non start pressing and a big part of 632 00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:54.440 that was because of Brendan Aronson, who's now with lead 633 00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:57.319 you Uninet, and so the Union just didn't really have 634 00:32:57.359 --> 00:32:59.480 the part personnel the last couple of years to continue 635 00:32:59.519 --> 00:33:02.359 this press singing. To Jim Curtin's credit, you know, he 636 00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:05.680 switched up tactics a little bit to the strengths of 637 00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:09.599 his teammates, I know, players while concept I know, but 638 00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:12.359 Ernst Tenner wasn't happy with that style of play because 639 00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:14.240 he said, this is what I came in here to 640 00:33:14.279 --> 00:33:16.759 build us as a pressing team. I want us to 641 00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:20.559 play pressing NonStop. And that's what Bratley Carnell's brought here. 642 00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:23.240 And I've had questions all season, you know, is this 643 00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:28.119 sustainable about the season in thirteen weeks to MLS it 644 00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:30.440 seems like that is the case. And one thing that 645 00:33:30.519 --> 00:33:33.160 Jim Curtain would never do is use his bench into 646 00:33:33.160 --> 00:33:36.359 Carnell's credit. He's not afraid to go to the bench 647 00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:38.720 and use five substitutions a game. You'd be lucky under 648 00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:41.799 Jim Curtin if you got one. And so I think 649 00:33:41.799 --> 00:33:44.359 that's probably the biggest difference between Jim and Bradley Cornell 650 00:33:44.519 --> 00:33:47.680 is that it's non step pressing with Bradley Cornell's teams, 651 00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:49.839 and then you have the use. 652 00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:50.279 Of your bench. 653 00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:53.519 And so with those two things, having that trust and 654 00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:55.720 belief in your players, whether they be the starters of 655 00:33:55.759 --> 00:33:57.839 the guys on the bench, I think that instills all 656 00:33:57.880 --> 00:33:59.759 the confidence in the world. And when you have a 657 00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:01.960 co says, hey, look, I'm not going to start you 658 00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:04.039 this game, but you are going to play a role 659 00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:06.359 coming off the bench, might be a minute, in maybe 660 00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:08.400 fifteen minutes. You're going to have a role to play. 661 00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:11.199 And I think that instills so much confidence. And again, 662 00:34:11.239 --> 00:34:13.400 you can tell, and I just talked about this on 663 00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:16.320 my show that if there was any questions if this 664 00:34:16.360 --> 00:34:18.400 is still Jim Curtin's team with a lot of his 665 00:34:18.480 --> 00:34:20.960 former players, with a lot of his coaching staff still 666 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:25.000 here in Philadelphia, Well last night ended all these doubts 667 00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:27.639 because Breley Connell had a way that he wanted to play. 668 00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:30.559 They kept coming in with crossing, cross and crossing, and 669 00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:33.199 they eventually found the breakthrough through La Galaxy, scoring two 670 00:34:33.239 --> 00:34:36.280 goals in two minutes against Galaxy in the forty eighth 671 00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:39.079 and fiftieth minute. Then you get that lately late game 672 00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:41.519 winning goal. This is one hundred percent of a Brelly 673 00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:43.679 Cronnell team, and this team is fully bought into the 674 00:34:43.679 --> 00:34:44.760 way that he wants to play. 675 00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:47.159 Todd Lewis from the Free Kick Pod hanging out with 676 00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:49.440 us for a bit of a preview with Philadelphia Union 677 00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:51.639 as Philly comes to town. The lineup that was there 678 00:34:51.719 --> 00:34:53.840 last night, at least to start before you start getting 679 00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:59.079 into swaps and things, it was rickin that back line, Wagner, Harriel, 680 00:34:59.119 --> 00:35:05.679 Glesnis in west midfield, Sullivan, Danley, Lukich, and Vassilev Indiana Vasileev. Obviously, 681 00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.000 there are folks in our footprint that have followed Indy's 682 00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:11.400 career from his time in Savannah and Statesboro to All 683 00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:15.360 Caps and Tormenta now there in Philly, and then Domiani 684 00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:19.920 and Barbo up top. How much rotation are you anticipating 685 00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:23.119 coming into the weekend with this being the third match 686 00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:24.039 in an eight day period. 687 00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:26.119 I'll be honest with you, John, I thought there was 688 00:35:26.159 --> 00:35:28.800 going to be a rotation last night against La Galaxy. 689 00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:31.639 So this was the first time since weeks three and 690 00:35:31.639 --> 00:35:35.039 four that Bradley Cornell has put out the same consecutive lineup. 691 00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:37.920 And I thought with a game that the Union puts 692 00:35:37.960 --> 00:35:40.400 so much on the line against Columbus Crew that I 693 00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:44.920 thought we would see some rotation. And I've imagine there's 694 00:35:44.920 --> 00:35:47.239 going to be rotation against Elenda and not at this weekend, 695 00:35:47.639 --> 00:35:49.199 especially with playing one turf. 696 00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:50.400 But I don't know. 697 00:35:50.440 --> 00:35:53.480 I mean, Bradley Cornell's full of surprises, and he told 698 00:35:53.559 --> 00:35:55.960 us a few weeks ago that you can expect rotation 699 00:35:56.400 --> 00:35:59.239 with the Fords every single game, and he doesn't change 700 00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:02.280 the Fords last night, goes with the same exact lineup 701 00:36:02.320 --> 00:36:03.480 that he did against Columbus. 702 00:36:03.480 --> 00:36:04.599 So I don't know. 703 00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:07.440 I would like to believe that we would see some 704 00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:11.480 sort of rotation. I think maybe the biggest thing, or 705 00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:13.880 the biggest question, is will Andrew Blake finally being goal 706 00:36:13.920 --> 00:36:17.320 for the Philadelphia Union. He's been dealing with a knee injury. 707 00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:19.480 Brolly Cornell had told us that there's just flew a 708 00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.360 build up in that knee doesn't feel comfortable Blake that 709 00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:25.559 is playing yet and if that is the case, you 710 00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:27.000 know why risk it on Turiff? 711 00:36:27.079 --> 00:36:27.239 Right? 712 00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:29.679 And so, Andrew Rick hasn't been horrible in goal through 713 00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:32.639 the Union, just made his tenth MLS start, got a 714 00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:35.920 homegrown deal last year with the Union, and so yeah, 715 00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:38.280 he's a raw goalkeeper at the MLS level, but he's 716 00:36:38.320 --> 00:36:41.840 been playing consistently the last couple of years with Union 717 00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:44.360 two down inn MLS next pro and I do know 718 00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:47.559 that that's not the same level as MLS. But Andrew 719 00:36:47.639 --> 00:36:49.760 Rick hasn't lost the Union games. And I would say 720 00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:52.639 that the biggest difference between Blake and Andrew Rick is 721 00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:56.079 Rick's distribution out of the back. He's so good with 722 00:36:56.079 --> 00:36:57.679 the ball at his foot and I think that just 723 00:36:57.719 --> 00:37:00.880 adds another element to the Union's game. That's an area 724 00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:04.000 against Columbus over the weekend that the Union exploited with 725 00:37:04.119 --> 00:37:07.079 Rick just pinging accurate long balls over the top bypassing 726 00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:09.840 the midfield in the defensive line of Columbus crew. And 727 00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:13.719 so yeah, I mean, if Blake really isn't one, why 728 00:37:13.719 --> 00:37:17.000 would you want to, you know, test him against Atlanta 729 00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:20.880 and Turff and potentially make the injury even worse because 730 00:37:21.239 --> 00:37:23.159 after the Union get done with Atlanta, then they go 731 00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:26.280 back to US Open Cup on Wednesday against Pittsburgh River Hounds, 732 00:37:26.480 --> 00:37:28.480 and then a couple of days after that they welcome 733 00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:31.880 into Miami uh to Suparu Park. So yeah, I mean, 734 00:37:32.679 --> 00:37:35.679 why risk Andrew Blake? Make sure if I was Bradley Cornell, 735 00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:38.400 if I was this coaching staff, Andrew Rick's not losing 736 00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:41.559 you games. You're still winning games, five straight games undefeated, 737 00:37:41.719 --> 00:37:44.079 six if you count the US Open Cup. So why 738 00:37:44.119 --> 00:37:47.679 not keep rolling out and Andrew Rick out there until 739 00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:50.639 Andrew Blake's one hundred percent healthy. And in a few 740 00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:52.800 hours we'll find out what the latest update is on 741 00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:54.840 Andrea Blake. I wish I had an update for you, 742 00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:58.280 but as of right now, I'd imagine Bradley Cornell is 743 00:37:58.280 --> 00:37:59.440 going to say he's questionable. 744 00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:01.920 Yeah, well, and or day to day and we sit 745 00:38:01.920 --> 00:38:04.599 there and go, yeah, aren't we all? Yeah, So you 746 00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:09.000 have Andre and Andrew, and you mentioned the differences with Andrew, 747 00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:11.599 and we are familiar with Andrew at the time that 748 00:38:11.599 --> 00:38:15.840 we cover MLS next Pro here at SDH where we've 749 00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:18.760 seen we've seen what Andrew brings to the table. And 750 00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:21.239 you mentioned his numbers last night ten to fifteen, passing 751 00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:23.920 three of eight on his long balls, and so the 752 00:38:24.400 --> 00:38:28.440 distribution definitely something to look at when you're staring at 753 00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:32.320 it at Andrew. So when you bring in the newer 754 00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:34.920 players that have come in this season, you look at Danley, 755 00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:37.079 you look at Luke at you look at Damiani. Obviously 756 00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:41.119 Vasilev coming from All Caps because of the time that 757 00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:44.239 he spent with Bradley Carnell. How do you think those 758 00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:50.079 newer acquisitions have integrated into the folks that are there, 759 00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:53.000 with Bradley Carnell also coming in as an import to 760 00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:53.760 be your head coach. 761 00:38:54.639 --> 00:38:58.639 Yeah, the pieces have been tremendous for the Union. And 762 00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:01.559 I know that Atlanta fans didn't get to see a 763 00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:03.559 ton of him because he picked up a red card 764 00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:07.320 in the fifty six minute with that player being yovonn Lukach. 765 00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:11.199 But he's been probably, in my opinion, the Union's best 766 00:39:11.239 --> 00:39:13.239 signing so far this season. He's been one of the 767 00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:16.440 most important players just with his distribution in the midfield, 768 00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:19.280 splitting the lines with his passing. And there was a 769 00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:22.119 lot of questions within the Union fan base, different people 770 00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:24.320 in the media not knowing too much about this guy. 771 00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:28.280 Just looking at his career in Europe, going from different teams, 772 00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:32.039 different divisions in Spain, I mean in Serbia, and then 773 00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:34.920 going to Austria where he didn't play at all, and 774 00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:37.840 so people weren't really sure what they were getting in 775 00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:41.519 yevonn Lukach And since his first stay here in Philadelphia, 776 00:39:41.719 --> 00:39:43.599 he's looked to be one of the best players on 777 00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:45.320 the team. We've seen him score a couple of goals 778 00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:49.239 this season, but for me, it's just his distribution, his passing, 779 00:39:49.320 --> 00:39:52.239 breaking the lines down. And it's a shame that the 780 00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:54.559 Union didn't get to get ninety minutes of him against 781 00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:57.039 Atlanta a few weeks ago, but I guess it didn't 782 00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:58.760 matter when the Union win that game three to nil. 783 00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:02.199 Single handedly being a man down didn't really make all 784 00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:04.280 the difference in the world. But yeah, for me, I 785 00:40:04.320 --> 00:40:08.159 think that he's been their biggest acquisition, their biggest difference 786 00:40:08.199 --> 00:40:11.280 maker with that passing, winning balls back and we're starting 787 00:40:11.280 --> 00:40:14.320 to see Danley John Jock the midfield partner, the number 788 00:40:14.360 --> 00:40:18.280 six partner of Lukic, five straight games now with goal 789 00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:21.519 contributions and picks up another assist last night, and now 790 00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:24.039 we're just seeing the interchange between them when one goes forth, 791 00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:26.000 the other one stays back, and they've they're starting to 792 00:40:26.039 --> 00:40:30.360 really pick up good chemistry within one another. And that's 793 00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:31.880 not what we saw at the beginning of the season, 794 00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:34.760 where it would be more so Lucage pushing up into 795 00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:37.280 the attack with Danley sitting back. But now the last 796 00:40:37.320 --> 00:40:40.239 couple of games they found a really good understanding where Okay, 797 00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:42.360 if I push, you stay back, where they both push 798 00:40:42.440 --> 00:40:46.039 sometimes at times too, just adding that pressure. Bradley Cornell 799 00:40:46.039 --> 00:40:48.199 had told us a couple of weeks ago that yes, 800 00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:51.880 our Red Bull solid team wants to hit you in 801 00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:54.599 quick transitions. They don't typically have a lot of the ball, 802 00:40:54.880 --> 00:40:59.119 but Bradley Cornell believes in the possession quality of this team. 803 00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:01.079 If there's moments in this game where they have to 804 00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:03.360 have the ball for five minutes, he trusts his players 805 00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:05.400 to be comfortable in the ball and break you down. 806 00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:07.800 And a lot of that starts with Jova Lukashlayer in 807 00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:08.400 the midfield. 808 00:41:09.480 --> 00:41:10.599 What in your. 809 00:41:10.519 --> 00:41:15.880 Mind gives Philadelphia trouble when they're going up against an opponent, 810 00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:20.519 whether it's style, personality, what have you When have Philadelphia 811 00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:23.159 struggled on the field this season? 812 00:41:23.760 --> 00:41:26.079 Yeah, they struggle just with the pressing style because you 813 00:41:26.519 --> 00:41:28.880 want to be aggressive and you push your center backs 814 00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:30.519 high up the field trying to win the ball back. 815 00:41:30.559 --> 00:41:33.920 And so I think there's a lot of quality on 816 00:41:34.079 --> 00:41:37.639 paper in Atlanta. And I was a little bit surprised 817 00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:39.760 just seeing the result a few weeks ago three zero, 818 00:41:39.800 --> 00:41:42.760 where I thought Atlanta could really hit the Union on 819 00:41:42.760 --> 00:41:45.199 the counter attack, take advantage of their aggressiveness. And I 820 00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:47.559 would say the same is true for just any team. 821 00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:50.559 It happened last night against La Galaxy where Danley John 822 00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:53.760 Jock pushes up into the midfield, pushes into the attack, 823 00:41:53.800 --> 00:41:56.239 tries to dribble by three guys, turns the ball over. 824 00:41:56.639 --> 00:41:59.360 Union always pushes their fullbacks up for it. They get 825 00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:01.159 caught out on the counter attack. So I would say, 826 00:42:01.159 --> 00:42:04.480 you know, it's just you know, when you take those risks, 827 00:42:04.639 --> 00:42:06.960 they pay off. Sometimes when they don't, then you better 828 00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:08.840 hope that your goalkeeper comes up with a big saver 829 00:42:08.920 --> 00:42:12.559 or two. And it wasn't really the case last night 830 00:42:12.599 --> 00:42:15.400 for Andrew Rick because La Galaxy didn't have a ton 831 00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:18.039 of chances. Yes, they score two goals, but it's not like, Okay, 832 00:42:18.039 --> 00:42:20.239 they're constantly going back into the Union's half of the 833 00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:22.679 field when they turned the ball over. So yeah, I 834 00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:25.599 would just look at any team that have fast wingers, 835 00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:27.559 fast players that are going to quickly turn you over 836 00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:30.760 from defense to offense. And Jacob Gleazes is not the 837 00:42:30.840 --> 00:42:34.000 quickest center back for the Union. You talked about rotation 838 00:42:34.320 --> 00:42:37.960 or different guys coming in. Jacob Glessness, I believe, has 839 00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:40.639 played every single minute for the Union this season, and 840 00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:43.079 we saw a few years ago when that happened under 841 00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:46.480 Jim Kirkin eventually got injured and missed the playoff game 842 00:42:46.519 --> 00:42:50.320 against FC Cincinnati, And so yes, the Union are down 843 00:42:50.360 --> 00:42:53.159 a couple of center backs with Neil Pierre and Jan Glevinovich. 844 00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:57.360 But will Bradley Cornew make a change this weekend against 845 00:42:57.400 --> 00:43:01.199 Atlanta and in sit Jacob Glessness and have that low 846 00:43:01.320 --> 00:43:04.119 management a term that we're all so familiar with because 847 00:43:04.159 --> 00:43:05.880 of basketball. 848 00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:09.519 Thank you, Greg Popovich. Absolutely, But yeah, so far. 849 00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:13.159 I mean Bradley Cornell just doesn't seem to operate that 850 00:43:13.239 --> 00:43:16.599 way and seems comfortable putting glistens out there every single game, 851 00:43:16.679 --> 00:43:19.880 And uh yeah, I would just be curious to see, 852 00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:21.519 you know, maybe it's just a game that you throw 853 00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:24.880 out a Aliwa to Makanya, who's one of the two 854 00:43:24.960 --> 00:43:27.599 only healthy center backs on this team. Nathan Harriel, who's 855 00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:30.440 the right backs been playing as a center back, started 856 00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:33.440 once again as a center back next to Glessness. Does 857 00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:37.960 does Crannell change up the center back pairing against Atlanta? 858 00:43:38.039 --> 00:43:38.679 We shall see. 859 00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:41.840 But yeah, the Union just pushing up high, getting caught out, 860 00:43:41.840 --> 00:43:43.880 being over aggressive and then teams sitting on the counter 861 00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:47.039 attacks seems to be the biggest weakness for this team 862 00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:49.639 so far this season. But like I said, you know 863 00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:53.199 that's to be expected. When you're wanting teams to be aggressive, 864 00:43:53.199 --> 00:43:55.800 when you're telling your center backs your fullbacks to push up, 865 00:43:55.840 --> 00:43:58.880 and you want to make teams uncomfortable in their own 866 00:43:58.920 --> 00:44:00.559 defensive half of the field, of course you're going to 867 00:44:00.599 --> 00:44:01.440 give up chances here and. 868 00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:03.599 There at the promo for me. 869 00:44:03.679 --> 00:44:06.000 So, folks that want to catch up with you and 870 00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:08.079 the Free Kickpod, how do they do it? 871 00:44:08.599 --> 00:44:08.840 Yeah? 872 00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:11.559 You can follow the podcast on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook 873 00:44:11.559 --> 00:44:14.400 at Freekickpod.

So do that for every single game 878 00:44:25.599 --> 00:44:28.559 that should be coming out later tonight for the LA 879 00:44:28.599 --> 00:44:32.639 Galaxy and Philadelphia Union game. And it is nice having 880 00:44:32.639 --> 00:44:35.000 a lot of fans from different teams just leaving nice 881 00:44:35.039 --> 00:44:37.320 comments and appreciating the goals breakdown because yeah, we're not 882 00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:38.960 going to keep it biased and just share the goals 883 00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:41.159 at the Union score to the chances at the Union score. 884 00:44:41.320 --> 00:44:43.760 We're going to share the whole whole plays over there. 885 00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:46.679 So have a lot of fun putting those videos together. 886 00:44:46.719 --> 00:44:48.400 And then if you want to check out my writing 887 00:44:48.400 --> 00:44:50.480 of the podcast or the goals breakdown video and all 888 00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:54.519 in one place, check out the freekick dot substack dot com. 889 00:44:54.679 --> 00:44:57.360 The freekick dot substack dot com.

He was like already 921 00:46:13.360 --> 00:46:15.920 off and running. He's doing the recap of everything lag 922 00:46:16.800 --> 00:46:21.400 in Philadelphia. And I think that Bradley Carnell is having 923 00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:25.400 their post mortem in the ten o'clock hour, and that 924 00:46:25.599 --> 00:46:29.599 was why he couldn't swing it tomorrow, and so he's 925 00:46:29.639 --> 00:46:31.960 got to get ready for everything that he's doing today. 926 00:46:32.159 --> 00:46:34.360 And we were lucky to be able to shoehorn him 927 00:46:34.360 --> 00:46:39.079 in after his morning show in Philly in the Philadelphia 928 00:46:39.199 --> 00:46:42.840 Union Universe, the Uniuniverse up in there, and so we 929 00:46:42.840 --> 00:46:44.679 were able to get Todd to come in this morning. 930 00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:47.159 And so that means that now Todd and Dave. 931 00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:49.679 Leno have the garage door opener to come in here 932 00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:52.119 and to discuss things in the hours of chaos that 933 00:46:52.159 --> 00:46:55.000 we have here every single week. So a morning Lokville. 934 00:46:55.000 --> 00:46:58.480 By the way, Rich, glad that you were able to 935 00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:02.800 see Todd before he jetted this morning. But yes, Abby 936 00:47:03.400 --> 00:47:06.440 was looking at temperatures. And by the way, like I said, 937 00:47:06.440 --> 00:47:11.880 Morning Local at the end of the match, eighty nine 938 00:47:11.920 --> 00:47:19.719 with a heat index of ninety four, I mean, yeah, 939 00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:22.679 it's just uh uh. I mean they had the d 940 00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:26.639 during the extreme heat advisory. They did have that hydration 941 00:47:26.719 --> 00:47:31.199 break at thirty and it was intriguing, to say the 942 00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:34.880 very least, with how it was going to all break down. 943 00:47:35.840 --> 00:47:37.880 And like I said, we went over the numbers when 944 00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:40.320 it came to momentum and attack momentum and things like that. 945 00:47:40.360 --> 00:47:45.920 But I am intrigued secondarily as to how heat will 946 00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:49.719 affect I mean not only Atlanta obviously, but Austin on 947 00:47:49.760 --> 00:47:53.119 the weekend. I want to know what Nico Esteves's lineup 948 00:47:53.159 --> 00:47:56.760 is going to be, and then you end up with 949 00:47:58.000 --> 00:47:59.320 the decisions that you have. 950 00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:01.840 Like I said, I think that with. 951 00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:05.480 Players playing ninety in Austin, I think that they might 952 00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:07.920 be on the eighteens, but I don't think they're going 953 00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:11.599 to start. But it will be the ninety dollars question. 954 00:48:12.320 --> 00:48:13.880 It is going to be what is it going to 955 00:48:13.960 --> 00:48:18.239 look like for Atlanta United with everything that's lined up? 956 00:48:18.440 --> 00:48:22.239 And Abby, I think yet to your point, Abby's making 957 00:48:22.280 --> 00:48:24.400 a point about when the hydration break happened in the 958 00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:28.519 thirtieth minute, make it at the midway point somewhere in 959 00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:31.039 there instead. And I don't know why they think, you know, 960 00:48:31.159 --> 00:48:34.440 thirty is the place to do it, because what you've 961 00:48:34.480 --> 00:48:37.280 done is you've gone thirty minutes and then you have 962 00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:39.679 your hydration breaking, then it's fifteen. Instead of hitting like 963 00:48:39.719 --> 00:48:43.360 a midpoint and then pursuing it from there, you go 964 00:48:43.400 --> 00:48:47.199 thirty minutes and then you kind of come you know, 965 00:48:47.360 --> 00:48:49.800 you've kind of got an adjusted to the conditions. You 966 00:48:49.920 --> 00:48:53.480 hydrate and then and it's fifteen minutes and it takes 967 00:48:53.559 --> 00:48:54.519 engine to get ramped up. 968 00:48:54.519 --> 00:48:55.199 You're trying to get. 969 00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:58.800 To the half and you're kind of like, okay, get 970 00:48:58.840 --> 00:48:59.519 back half. 971 00:48:59.559 --> 00:49:02.840 You get to that half. So but no abby with you. 972 00:49:02.880 --> 00:49:04.800 I think that they probably have hydration breaks somewhere in 973 00:49:04.800 --> 00:49:07.159 the neighborhood of twenty two, twenty three to five, somewhere 974 00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:07.719 at that point. 975 00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:10.039 But yeah, to uh. 976 00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:15.960 To to at their favorite club, playing in the conditions 977 00:49:16.039 --> 00:49:19.760 that were there down Austin this week again, what what 978 00:49:19.880 --> 00:49:23.400 it's keep an eye on Atlanta with what it's going 979 00:49:23.480 --> 00:49:26.880 to look like else that that's attached to it to 980 00:49:26.920 --> 00:49:29.320 see what it isn't going to look like. So we'll 981 00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:33.599 keep but it is one of the the leading into 982 00:49:33.639 --> 00:49:40.679 the end involving specifically they Telphia come into town thanks. 983 00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:42.000 To Todd for come. 984 00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:49.679 So that's that's what's where you David with me, David 985 00:49:49.719 --> 00:49:55.320 with breaks ninety minutes, ninety three, thirty sixty, Well at 986 00:49:55.400 --> 00:49:58.800 ninety at ninety minutes, you're done. It should be at 987 00:49:58.800 --> 00:50:03.519 the quarter poll, shouldn't it. It should be because the 988 00:50:03.559 --> 00:50:05.280 third break is the end of the match, because if 989 00:50:05.280 --> 00:50:07.639 you had a break, it would be like at thirty 990 00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:09.840 and sixty, Sure, thirty, and then you get in and 991 00:50:09.880 --> 00:50:12.519 then sixty you play for another thirty. But your third 992 00:50:12.519 --> 00:50:15.599 break would be at ninety and you're not done. And 993 00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:17.320 then you'd have a break at ninety minutes and then 994 00:50:17.360 --> 00:50:19.159 you have her many minutes. The fourth puts up on 995 00:50:19.199 --> 00:50:22.559 the on the lightboard. Would it be when it be 996 00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:25.880 better with the quarter pole. It'd be better at the 997 00:50:25.920 --> 00:50:26.840 quarter pole, wouldn't it. 998 00:50:29.719 --> 00:50:35.400 I think? So, yeah, Rich, you know how to fix 999 00:50:35.519 --> 00:50:37.159 hydration breaks? Move to a winter schedule. 1000 00:50:38.480 --> 00:50:41.639 I yeah, but then you have venues that you wouldn't 1001 00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:42.840 necessarily be able. 1002 00:50:42.639 --> 00:50:49.119 To play in. Referees referees intelligence. 1003 00:50:48.920 --> 00:50:51.079 I have none. I have no reference. I have no 1004 00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:55.039 referee intelligence. Uh but yes, and so yes, Abby, half 1005 00:50:55.039 --> 00:50:55.480 of the half. 1006 00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:56.519 I could just see. 1007 00:50:56.559 --> 00:50:59.679 I could just see, you know, with with David's David's philosophy, 1008 00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.880 if that happened, you do it every thirty minutes at 1009 00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:07.440 the ninetieth minute hydration break? What you have a hydration 1010 00:51:07.519 --> 00:51:09.760 break in the ninetieth minute. Wait, it's like, wait, a 1011 00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:12.559 second team is a team's starting to roll? 1012 00:51:12.920 --> 00:51:14.000 They've got all this momentum. 1013 00:51:14.039 --> 00:51:17.239 They're trying to either you know, get a go ahead 1014 00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:19.679 goal or they're trying to get a comeback ninetieth minute 1015 00:51:19.679 --> 00:51:21.039 tweet hydration break. 1016 00:51:21.039 --> 00:51:25.440 You're like, what that would that'd be pretty funny. 1017 00:51:27.039 --> 00:51:30.280 A couple of promos before our buddy Nino Torres joins 1018 00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:32.119 us here to take the tour around the planet for 1019 00:51:32.159 --> 00:51:35.199 the topics of which I have not seen, and we'll 1020 00:51:35.199 --> 00:51:37.480 find out what's going on. Obviously, we'll talk about the 1021 00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:40.199 Darby's that happened in Portugal that Nino got to call 1022 00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:43.440 last weekend. And if you have a chance to watch 1023 00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:46.800 Gold TV however you can access it, please do because 1024 00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:51.199 Nino gets to show in these rivalries. It's just it's 1025 00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:54.480 fun to see how he navigates it. So it's always 1026 00:51:54.519 --> 00:51:57.119 fun to check out Nino when he calls things on 1027 00:51:57.199 --> 00:51:59.360 Gold TV. We're probably gonna talk the Darby's in Portugal, 1028 00:51:59.440 --> 00:52:03.679 probably Talkertadors, probably talk Champions League, probably talk about El 1029 00:52:03.719 --> 00:52:08.159 Classico with Real Madrid Barcelona, which was just off the 1030 00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:11.559 charts crazy, And so that's what I'm guessing. 1031 00:52:11.599 --> 00:52:13.000 I have not seen the topics. 1032 00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:16.039 We will all see them together when Nino Torres jumps 1033 00:52:16.079 --> 00:52:19.800 in once again quick reminders. Across the board, you go 1034 00:52:19.880 --> 00:52:22.280 to Olivi and York and get our jersey presented by 1035 00:52:22.280 --> 00:52:24.960 our friends at Kaiser Permanente. Across the front beyond goals 1036 00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:27.400 on one sleeve, Soccer for Good on the other, and 1037 00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:31.039 the proceeds there go to our Soccer for Good campaign 1038 00:52:31.079 --> 00:52:32.039 here in twenty twenty five. 1039 00:52:32.079 --> 00:52:32.519 Don't forget. 1040 00:52:32.559 --> 00:52:34.960 You can always go back into our ig archive and 1041 00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:39.320 see Blue Steele as shown by Greg Garza and Sophia 1042 00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:42.840 Cupertino and our Maddi cruise. I imagine that Maddie is 1043 00:52:42.840 --> 00:52:45.239 probably still wiped out from last night because she and 1044 00:52:45.280 --> 00:52:50.800 the Hoff had the unified match after the first team 1045 00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:53.880 match and it was a one to one draw. Late 1046 00:52:54.320 --> 00:52:59.559 Bombaso for the equalizer off a recycled, recycled set piece, 1047 00:53:00.199 --> 00:53:01.920 so it was a one to lead for Austin at 1048 00:53:01.920 --> 00:53:04.880 home and it ended up with a late equalizer for 1049 00:53:04.920 --> 00:53:09.840 Atlanta United. So their first trip to Austin, their first 1050 00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:13.480 trip to Austin, and you end up with a one 1051 00:53:13.519 --> 00:53:17.639 to one draw. So there you go, morning, Nate, Nate 1052 00:53:17.719 --> 00:53:20.840 McCreery hanging in with us, Come on you, spurs and 1053 00:53:20.920 --> 00:53:26.519 trees galore, no doubt about it. Let's see what else. 1054 00:53:27.239 --> 00:53:29.679 Grady Baby, Grady Baby cod don't forget to get the 1055 00:53:29.719 --> 00:53:32.639 soccer is just better in Atlanta. Sweatshirt, you can get 1056 00:53:32.679 --> 00:53:34.800 it in red, you can get it in black. And 1057 00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:37.480 the Golden Boss soccer is just better in Atlanta. You 1058 00:53:37.519 --> 00:53:41.559 go through Grady Baby Proceeds there help out middle school 1059 00:53:41.559 --> 00:53:44.480 soccer programs attached to Atlanta public schools. You can do 1060 00:53:44.559 --> 00:53:47.400 that and that would be really cool. Also, the Marshall 1061 00:53:47.440 --> 00:53:50.760 Islands once again, they made their Kickstarter number and so 1062 00:53:51.159 --> 00:53:53.559 it's good that they have cleared that level. Looks like 1063 00:53:53.559 --> 00:53:55.639 we're going to be spending some time in August in 1064 00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:58.920 Arkansas to look at what's going on with the Marshall 1065 00:53:58.960 --> 00:54:01.679 Islands as they hold the first ever Outrigger Challenge Cup, 1066 00:54:01.679 --> 00:54:06.159 their first ever eleven to eleven tournament. And it's gonna 1067 00:54:06.159 --> 00:54:09.440 be them Turks and Caicos and the US Virgin Islands 1068 00:54:09.480 --> 00:54:12.840 all in Springdale, Arkansas, the week of August fourteenth through 1069 00:54:12.880 --> 00:54:15.840 the sixteenth, where you're gonna have your three way dance 1070 00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:17.480 and figure out who your champion is. I don't know 1071 00:54:17.480 --> 00:54:19.000 if they're gonna try to bring in a fourth team 1072 00:54:19.079 --> 00:54:22.840 or not. Guam was supposed to be there, but they 1073 00:54:22.920 --> 00:54:25.400 Guam unfortunately had to back out. So be a part 1074 00:54:25.400 --> 00:54:28.599 of the Kickstarter program. You're gonna buy the Marshall Islands gear. 1075 00:54:28.639 --> 00:54:30.320 By the way, I have to send a scarf to 1076 00:54:30.400 --> 00:54:35.280 Hong Kong. So I'm sending scarf to Hong Kong. Everything 1077 00:54:35.320 --> 00:54:37.519 that you purchase to help out the Marshall Islands and 1078 00:54:37.519 --> 00:54:40.239 show the love for the Marshall Island soccer fed it 1079 00:54:40.280 --> 00:54:42.559 comes from England except for the scarfs which come from 1080 00:54:42.559 --> 00:54:45.480 the other side of that door. And so, like I said, 1081 00:54:45.480 --> 00:54:47.679 I got less than ten and with some of the 1082 00:54:47.719 --> 00:54:51.880 packages that folks got for August and Arkansas, I'm probably 1083 00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:55.000 sending those out and then having to reorder the Marshall 1084 00:54:55.000 --> 00:54:58.880 Island scarf. So very very cool stuff there. Also, you 1085 00:54:58.920 --> 00:55:01.039 could become a Finati coo for ten bucks a year 1086 00:55:01.639 --> 00:55:05.159 at group dot chant dot fan.

One goal win 1168 00:59:09.199 --> 00:59:11.760 for a Cony County over Jefferson Girls in Triple A, 1169 00:59:12.199 --> 00:59:14.800 one goal win for Johnson gains All over Northwest Whitfield 1170 00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:16.320 on the boys side in Triple A.

After match week five, there are ten points, 1352 01:08:48.520 --> 01:08:50.960 two points clear for for ALESA and Group E. 1353 01:08:51.800 --> 01:08:52.119 Uh. 1354 01:08:52.199 --> 01:08:55.079 Paul Marris is leading Group G. They're blowing everybody out 1355 01:08:55.119 --> 01:08:58.800 in their career. Uh, Bela, Sarsfield and Penny Roll. They're 1356 01:08:58.840 --> 01:09:00.800 the top two and there Group you know they're they're 1357 01:09:00.840 --> 01:09:01.760 gonna be the top two. 1358 01:09:01.840 --> 01:09:03.720 You just don't know the order yet with one match 1359 01:09:03.760 --> 01:09:04.359 week to go. 1360 01:09:05.079 --> 01:09:09.439 Uh, You've got Salpallo and Libertadsuncion right now there, they're 1361 01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:11.479 gonna be the ones out of Group D. You're trying 1362 01:09:11.479 --> 01:09:13.319 to figure out who that third team might be for 1363 01:09:13.399 --> 01:09:17.239 the wild card spot. Cordeba, I know, the Yukito, they 1364 01:09:17.239 --> 01:09:18.920 look they're gonna be like the ones coming out of 1365 01:09:19.000 --> 01:09:22.279 C And Wheniversa died, the Chile Studiantes and both the 1366 01:09:22.319 --> 01:09:25.279 Fogo are in a street fight. In Group A that's 1367 01:09:25.319 --> 01:09:27.600 gonna come down to the last match. Week without question, 1368 01:09:27.760 --> 01:09:31.359 because Wheniversa does, the Chile plays both the Fogo and 1369 01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:35.319 the Studiantes plays Carabobo. So it's looking at Studiantes. It 1370 01:09:35.359 --> 01:09:37.319 looks like they may end up getting the win out 1371 01:09:37.359 --> 01:09:39.439 of Group A and they might be able to pile 1372 01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:41.720 it on because car Bobo's only scored twice in five 1373 01:09:41.800 --> 01:09:43.920 matches and they've given up eleven, so it might be 1374 01:09:43.960 --> 01:09:47.920 a chance for Studiantes to advance and get it done 1375 01:09:48.000 --> 01:09:49.800 on goal difference if it comes down to it. But 1376 01:09:49.920 --> 01:09:52.479 I like the Studiantes in Group A just because of 1377 01:09:52.760 --> 01:09:55.680 who they end up having to play in the next 1378 01:09:55.720 --> 01:09:59.640 go round. So that's that's my that is my dime store. 1379 01:09:59.720 --> 01:10:03.239 Look at how it might shape up today. You got 1380 01:10:03.239 --> 01:10:06.760 three at six o'clock Eastern, two at eight thirty uh 1381 01:10:07.039 --> 01:10:10.960 Internacional favored on the road at Nacional.

Eleven victories 1486 01:16:12.159 --> 01:16:16.960 in a row, the team was a machine. Then Rubin left, 1487 01:16:17.479 --> 01:16:18.640 Then jo opery I came in. 1488 01:16:19.079 --> 01:16:19.760 He couldn't do it. 1489 01:16:20.039 --> 01:16:23.640 He got scared.

They just couldn't 1524 01:18:16.840 --> 01:18:23.359 filter it out. The massive defense, overloading from Sporting eight alive, 1525 01:18:23.640 --> 01:18:24.520 the offense. 1526 01:18:24.239 --> 01:18:27.359 Of Benfica and the evening they got. 1527 01:18:27.479 --> 01:18:31.079 They gotta come up with this marvelous play, individual play 1528 01:18:31.600 --> 01:18:37.960 from a genius publicist living all fights, five defenders on 1529 01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:41.880 the floor to assist, are to go look to get equalized. 1530 01:18:42.000 --> 01:18:45.319 That was the only way, one magic trick from a 1531 01:18:45.439 --> 01:18:49.479 Marlos players that is publicist to get that goal, because 1532 01:18:49.560 --> 01:18:52.279 without magic, I mean, I don't. 1533 01:18:52.079 --> 01:18:55.359 Think that they could ever get that goal. It was putting. 1534 01:18:55.399 --> 01:18:59.039 They were so solid, It was so solid defensively and 1535 01:18:59.399 --> 01:19:03.000 they were not that focus into attacking them pick that 1536 01:19:03.119 --> 01:19:05.600 they were also they were focused on prevailed. 1537 01:19:06.079 --> 01:19:08.560 Right, we got the lead, all right, they got the equalized. Right, 1538 01:19:09.000 --> 01:19:10.039 we're not gonna get crazy. 1539 01:19:10.079 --> 01:19:12.439 We're not gonna go and score again to get the 1540 01:19:12.520 --> 01:19:13.880 two one to get the big two. 1541 01:19:13.960 --> 01:19:16.680 No, no, no, no no no, We're fine with the point. 1542 01:19:16.760 --> 01:19:20.199 But we'll find with the point because after this, if 1543 01:19:20.239 --> 01:19:22.720 we come up with a point out of here, we 1544 01:19:22.880 --> 01:19:23.199 go to. 1545 01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:26.600 Our stadi, to the alad to close the season and 1546 01:19:26.840 --> 01:19:29.399 to win the championship at home. And that's exactly what 1547 01:19:29.520 --> 01:19:32.800 they did, and that's exactly what will when I will. 1548 01:19:33.039 --> 01:19:38.479 They didn't win the championship this Saturday, the first back 1549 01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:42.760 to back titles in fifty two years for Sporting. 1550 01:19:42.920 --> 01:19:45.239 It's not there, is not done yet, but I know 1551 01:19:45.359 --> 01:19:45.880 it's gonna be. 1552 01:19:48.439 --> 01:19:50.479 All right.

We'll talk about them in a second. Braga 1563 01:20:23.640 --> 01:20:26.760 big dog at home. Benfica's a minus one seventy five 1564 01:20:26.840 --> 01:20:30.840 traveling to Braga. Estil slight dog at home hosting Estrala, 1565 01:20:30.880 --> 01:20:34.159 who's a plus one fifty six. Porto's a big favorite 1566 01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:36.560 at home at a minus three twenty three, hosting Nacional 1567 01:20:37.159 --> 01:20:40.399 Forense slight favored at home against Santa Clauda at a 1568 01:20:40.439 --> 01:20:43.560 plus one sixty five, Sporting a minus three eighty five 1569 01:20:43.640 --> 01:20:47.479 hosting Vittoya Guimerash, who is a plus nine to eighty five. 1570 01:20:47.640 --> 01:20:52.039 The standings as we go, Sporting and din Fica tied 1571 01:20:52.119 --> 01:20:55.039 on points at seventy nine. Sporting has a plus three 1572 01:20:55.399 --> 01:20:58.000 goal difference if you want to get down to it 1573 01:20:58.119 --> 01:20:59.279 if you end up tied on. 1574 01:20:59.359 --> 01:21:03.039 Points Porto and Braga. Braga needs some help. 1575 01:21:03.119 --> 01:21:08.840 They need the win against Benfica and they need a 1576 01:21:08.880 --> 01:21:11.079 whole lot of goals to get to third. I think 1577 01:21:11.159 --> 01:21:13.239 that's gonna stay with Porto by the time we're done, 1578 01:21:13.279 --> 01:21:16.399 because with Porto playing further down the table, I think 1579 01:21:16.479 --> 01:21:20.319 Porto ends up with your number three spot, and then 1580 01:21:20.479 --> 01:21:22.680 it comes to game Russian Santa Clauda to try to 1581 01:21:22.760 --> 01:21:25.560 figure out your five spot. Who's going into Europa Conference League. 1582 01:21:25.600 --> 01:21:28.319 Now we go to the bottom, yes, we go to 1583 01:21:28.399 --> 01:21:30.680 the bottom. And this is why we spend time talking 1584 01:21:30.720 --> 01:21:34.760 about folks like Boula Vista, AFS and Fadense because of 1585 01:21:34.920 --> 01:21:37.439 how we just want to ish on Bolavista and how 1586 01:21:37.479 --> 01:21:39.479 they handle things. And then you introduce the fact that 1587 01:21:39.560 --> 01:21:42.520 AFS might be worse as an organization. 1588 01:21:42.960 --> 01:21:45.399 Here's what's happening sixteenth you. 1589 01:21:45.439 --> 01:21:47.920 Want to avoid because that's the promotion playoff with the 1590 01:21:48.000 --> 01:21:52.039 number three team coming up from Lega be that's right now, 1591 01:21:52.359 --> 01:21:56.560 AFS because they're at twenty seven points and the tie 1592 01:21:56.600 --> 01:21:58.319 breakers and such. I think it's head to head is 1593 01:21:58.439 --> 01:22:01.880 right now the difference but Enze is a twenty seven points, 1594 01:22:01.920 --> 01:22:03.880 they have better goal difference, but they have worse had 1595 01:22:03.920 --> 01:22:06.920 the head against the AFS. Boa Vista is at twenty 1596 01:22:07.039 --> 01:22:11.199 four points, they have the worst goal difference and they 1597 01:22:11.359 --> 01:22:13.159 need to beat Aruka. 1598 01:22:12.960 --> 01:22:14.000 And get some help. 1599 01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:19.880 How did how how how could Boa Vista survive with 1600 01:22:20.000 --> 01:22:20.479 this math? 1601 01:22:20.560 --> 01:22:23.840 Sir oh Man, I was you know, I. 1602 01:22:24.000 --> 01:22:28.359 Was going to Derby in uh but the portal Ofsta 1603 01:22:28.399 --> 01:22:31.079 Derby and that's it at the end of is relegated, 1604 01:22:31.199 --> 01:22:33.159 right because there was you know, you look at the 1605 01:22:33.239 --> 01:22:37.279 points so that they're done. But then my guys from 1606 01:22:37.319 --> 01:22:39.920 Portugal they're like, no, no, they're not done yet. They're 1607 01:22:39.960 --> 01:22:40.520 not done yet. 1608 01:22:40.680 --> 01:22:44.319 I mean it's gonna be a crazy combination of results, 1609 01:22:45.479 --> 01:22:48.560 uh to get it done. But they could. 1610 01:22:49.439 --> 01:22:53.039 I mean, all right, so it's twenty seven piece, right, 1611 01:22:53.399 --> 01:22:55.960 But the thing is that they they had to head 1612 01:22:56.640 --> 01:22:59.159 and they had to hand. Boa Vista got the UH, 1613 01:23:00.079 --> 01:23:03.039 it's getting the upper hand against the other two. So 1614 01:23:03.359 --> 01:23:11.159 if financing, yes, financing, because it's not it is the 1615 01:23:11.600 --> 01:23:14.319 it is they head to head, the prevails instead of 1616 01:23:14.399 --> 01:23:17.399 the all differential here, So even though they all differential 1617 01:23:17.520 --> 01:23:19.960 for finance is minus twenty and and bab this is 1618 01:23:20.119 --> 01:23:23.520 minus thirty bowl, I think it is UH, they can 1619 01:23:23.760 --> 01:23:27.479 get ahead of them, but it's gonna be tied. This 1620 01:23:27.680 --> 01:23:30.640 is this will go wild because they will be triple 1621 01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:31.760 tie at twenty seven. 1622 01:23:32.319 --> 01:23:33.399 If WA Vista. 1623 01:23:33.159 --> 01:23:37.840 Wins and Financing and a FS lose lose their games, 1624 01:23:38.720 --> 01:23:42.720 we're gonna triple tie at twenty seven and Bavista could 1625 01:23:43.560 --> 01:23:44.119 be saved. 1626 01:23:44.279 --> 01:23:45.279 I mean it's safe. 1627 01:23:47.279 --> 01:23:52.800 Quota siou yeah, because they're gonna play the the relegation playoffs. 1628 01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:56.439 But it is possible.

There is Cup number three? 1782 01:32:30.279 --> 01:32:33.119 Man, Like you said it was, it was a late night, 1783 01:32:33.680 --> 01:32:36.640 you know, trying to catch a couple of games, at 1784 01:32:36.720 --> 01:32:39.800 least ninety you know, to eighty minutes. I didn't finish 1785 01:32:39.880 --> 01:32:44.359 watching the whole rail slike Timbers game, but yeah, just 1786 01:32:44.399 --> 01:32:48.760 trying to catch some games. Obviously, lot going on here 1787 01:32:48.800 --> 01:32:52.319 in the Pacific Northwest. So I am here man, three 1788 01:32:52.399 --> 01:32:55.760 cups in, ready to go. But whatever John might throw my. 1789 01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:59.159 Way, all right, so let's start with the home Let's 1790 01:32:59.199 --> 01:33:02.039 start with the home man, and then we'll work our 1791 01:33:02.079 --> 01:33:06.960 way through the rest of cascadies. So, Seattle, how would 1792 01:33:07.000 --> 01:33:10.199 you describe giving up four to LAFC and not scoring 1793 01:33:10.319 --> 01:33:11.079 one themselves? 1794 01:33:12.359 --> 01:33:12.560 Yeah? 1795 01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:16.199 Look, I think that the game got a little bit 1796 01:33:16.239 --> 01:33:22.119 away from the Sounders reach. But I just thought that 1797 01:33:22.199 --> 01:33:27.439 there have been way too many assumptions and overreactions when 1798 01:33:27.520 --> 01:33:31.159 he comes to this specific game. This was a heavily 1799 01:33:31.399 --> 01:33:35.640 rotated Sounders team. You needed to give minutes to a. 1800 01:33:35.680 --> 01:33:36.359 Lot of guys. 1801 01:33:36.640 --> 01:33:39.159 You got Leyva and JP that both started haven't had 1802 01:33:39.199 --> 01:33:42.279 a lot of minutes this year. You start a Sasaderosario 1803 01:33:42.680 --> 01:33:47.199 first start in MLS, you have to put in Thomas. 1804 01:33:47.319 --> 01:33:50.640 I mean, all of these other things that needed to 1805 01:33:50.720 --> 01:33:53.880 happen in what other game are you going to be 1806 01:33:53.920 --> 01:33:55.880 able to do that? When else are you going to 1807 01:33:55.920 --> 01:33:58.439 be able to get this guy's competitive minutes? Then in 1808 01:33:58.520 --> 01:34:02.039 a week where you have a game Saturday Wednesday, Saturday, 1809 01:34:02.439 --> 01:34:06.319 you gotta play a very tough game against Portland Timbers. 1810 01:34:06.680 --> 01:34:12.680 So for me, it's all good and well did Seattle? 1811 01:34:12.960 --> 01:34:16.439 And can we make some assumptions and some conclusions that 1812 01:34:16.520 --> 01:34:18.039 are not great in this one? 1813 01:34:18.439 --> 01:34:21.359 Sure? I think that his schus Ferrero should have been better. 1814 01:34:21.880 --> 01:34:24.640 I thought that Jay Bell has kind of shown in 1815 01:34:24.720 --> 01:34:27.560 a couple of games that in the three men setup, 1816 01:34:28.399 --> 01:34:30.279 I don't think he's the right choice when he comes 1817 01:34:30.319 --> 01:34:32.880 to that middle guy of the three man back line. 1818 01:34:33.359 --> 01:34:35.920 They went back to the three for three, they look 1819 01:34:36.079 --> 01:34:38.399 better when they went back to the fourth two three 1820 01:34:38.479 --> 01:34:41.800 one in the second half. Brad Sbscher admitted that he 1821 01:34:42.039 --> 01:34:44.319 said and mentioned that the reason why he set up 1822 01:34:44.399 --> 01:34:47.399 that way is because he wanted to match what las 1823 01:34:47.479 --> 01:34:48.960 he gave you in the four to three to three 1824 01:34:49.319 --> 01:34:52.079 the deformation I worked in the past, So there's reasonings 1825 01:34:52.159 --> 01:34:55.239 to everything, and for me, that's good enough. I understand 1826 01:34:55.279 --> 01:34:57.000 that we're in a day and age where we have 1827 01:34:57.119 --> 01:35:00.239 to be reactive and we have to be to have 1828 01:35:00.319 --> 01:35:02.840 a statement and a reaction right after the game, and 1829 01:35:03.319 --> 01:35:07.000 it's either you're good or you're awful, and you're terrible, so. 1830 01:35:07.920 --> 01:35:11.760 And he goes both ways. I was kind of surprised about. 1831 01:35:11.960 --> 01:35:15.760 How much of the LAFC fan base and a lot 1832 01:35:15.840 --> 01:35:20.119 of comments out there were praising LAFC for beating for 1833 01:35:20.439 --> 01:35:23.800 zero a Sounders team that again had a lot of 1834 01:35:23.880 --> 01:35:27.079 rotating pieces, no starters in this one. 1835 01:35:27.520 --> 01:35:30.640 So LAFC is no juggernaut. 1836 01:35:30.720 --> 01:35:34.000 They're the exact same team that ended up drawing to 1837 01:35:34.119 --> 01:35:37.000 to after, you know, kind of having all of the 1838 01:35:37.119 --> 01:35:40.920 lead against Vancouver Whitecaps. They're the same team that got 1839 01:35:40.960 --> 01:35:43.039 put against the Ropes but the Timbers and ended up 1840 01:35:43.079 --> 01:35:45.840 three to three. I mean, leave the exact same LAFC 1841 01:35:45.960 --> 01:35:48.800 team and for Seattle, all that momentum, everything that they've 1842 01:35:48.840 --> 01:35:52.800 been building, the identity, the concepts, the principles, those are 1843 01:35:52.840 --> 01:35:53.279 all there. 1844 01:35:53.600 --> 01:35:55.159 It was just a game that kind of got out 1845 01:35:55.199 --> 01:35:55.680 of hand. 1846 01:35:56.319 --> 01:35:59.840 And you know, why do we why? Why? 1847 01:36:00.079 --> 01:36:00.239 Why? 1848 01:36:00.399 --> 01:36:00.560 Why? 1849 01:36:00.920 --> 01:36:04.600 Why do we need context? We need to have immediate reactions. 1850 01:36:04.680 --> 01:36:06.159 It's got to be one thing or the other. We 1851 01:36:06.279 --> 01:36:09.359 can't be patient and understand context. Here, Come on, now, 1852 01:36:09.880 --> 01:36:11.279 you know how it's supposed to work. 1853 01:36:11.960 --> 01:36:12.680 Yeah, exactly. 1854 01:36:12.800 --> 01:36:14.720 That That's kind of the reaction that I'm hearing from 1855 01:36:14.760 --> 01:36:17.319 everybody's like, I gotta understand why we have to just 1856 01:36:17.520 --> 01:36:20.239 change it against all AFC. You know, why can't we 1857 01:36:20.359 --> 01:36:22.439 just go and put a starting team every single time? 1858 01:36:22.479 --> 01:36:24.840 And like, man, you need to manage your minutes. 1859 01:36:24.960 --> 01:36:26.640 This is not a sprint. 1860 01:36:26.800 --> 01:36:29.600 This is a long race, right, I mean, this is 1861 01:36:29.640 --> 01:36:32.560 a marathon. You gotta understand that. When it comes to 1862 01:36:32.640 --> 01:36:35.479 al AERC, I heard a lot of people being upset saying, well, 1863 01:36:35.560 --> 01:36:37.920 you know, when you throw in the towel against a 1864 01:36:38.039 --> 01:36:41.800 top team, that's not championship mentality. Well, neither is trying 1865 01:36:41.840 --> 01:36:46.880 to overreact on a Wednesday game and maybe put your 1866 01:36:47.359 --> 01:36:49.680 best players in a position to get hurt for the 1867 01:36:49.800 --> 01:36:54.119 future and really have issues moving forward. Or you can 1868 01:36:54.319 --> 01:36:57.920 just relax and understand that you know what, there's a 1869 01:36:58.000 --> 01:37:00.680 learning lesson. That's the way brands mess talked about it. 1870 01:37:00.720 --> 01:37:02.640 Are's the way the players talked about it is a 1871 01:37:02.760 --> 01:37:06.239 learning lesson in this Wednesday game. Now you go on 1872 01:37:06.800 --> 01:37:10.159 this weekend in a rivalry game, and you put all 1873 01:37:10.199 --> 01:37:12.960 your frustrations into that game, and now if that doesn't 1874 01:37:13.319 --> 01:37:15.840 go as you plan, then you can react. Then you 1875 01:37:15.920 --> 01:37:19.760 can and don't overreact. Just react to that at that 1876 01:37:19.880 --> 01:37:22.880 specific time. But if you look at the circumstances, I 1877 01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:26.279 thought that the Sounders that were in it for most 1878 01:37:26.359 --> 01:37:29.119 of the game, it wasn't as bad as the score line. 1879 01:37:29.159 --> 01:37:32.760 Team you look at when the goals fall, you know, 1880 01:37:33.039 --> 01:37:35.479 Yamar comes off as well. I mean, there was a 1881 01:37:35.560 --> 01:37:38.880 lot of things that kind of happen when that second 1882 01:37:38.920 --> 01:37:41.520 half kind of got out of hand for the Seattle Sounders. 1883 01:37:41.600 --> 01:37:45.880 So let's just pump the brakes. There's another game this weekend. 1884 01:37:45.960 --> 01:37:48.479 That's the best thing about the way this setup is 1885 01:37:48.560 --> 01:37:50.640 right now is that you get to turn the page 1886 01:37:50.760 --> 01:37:53.239 focus on Portland and we'll see what happens there. But 1887 01:37:53.680 --> 01:37:56.039 I will say that it's okay to be frustrated. I 1888 01:37:56.199 --> 01:37:59.039 understand that a lot of players didn't play up to 1889 01:37:59.119 --> 01:38:01.960 their best. I thought and Leva wasn't sharp in this one. 1890 01:38:02.520 --> 01:38:06.279 Usually that's his m as being very good on distribution 1891 01:38:06.439 --> 01:38:08.319 with the ball. I thought it was a little bit off. 1892 01:38:08.560 --> 01:38:10.880 Other than Pedro de la Vega, a lot of players 1893 01:38:10.920 --> 01:38:14.119 I feel like underperformed, included even Andrew Thomas. I feel 1894 01:38:14.159 --> 01:38:16.640 like Andrew Thomas at goal, a guy that's supposed to 1895 01:38:16.640 --> 01:38:21.039 be the future for the team, he looked overwhelmed at times. 1896 01:38:21.960 --> 01:38:24.199 He could have used more poise, a little bit more 1897 01:38:24.279 --> 01:38:27.479 of that, a lot more actually of the leadership inside 1898 01:38:27.520 --> 01:38:28.000 the box. 1899 01:38:28.920 --> 01:38:33.279 So again, less him learn, You live and you learn. 1900 01:38:33.800 --> 01:38:34.000 Yep. 1901 01:38:34.199 --> 01:38:38.920 And then the rest of Cascadia. You had a goalless 1902 01:38:39.119 --> 01:38:43.840 draw with salt Lake in Portland. I was intrigued by that. 1903 01:38:43.920 --> 01:38:46.479 I would have anticipated more goals in that one, but 1904 01:38:46.640 --> 01:38:49.399 you end up getting Salt Lake in Portland with nothing 1905 01:38:49.520 --> 01:38:51.279 on the board for anybody to see. 1906 01:38:52.720 --> 01:38:52.960 Yep. 1907 01:38:53.239 --> 01:38:56.520 And you know, that was an interesting game, kind of 1908 01:38:56.640 --> 01:38:59.239 a chess match to begin with, a little bit slow 1909 01:38:59.479 --> 01:39:02.520 for you know. I know that people like goals and 1910 01:39:02.840 --> 01:39:04.760 not a lot of people like the defensive part of it. 1911 01:39:05.319 --> 01:39:06.800 But I thought it was an interesting game. 1912 01:39:06.880 --> 01:39:10.720 I think that regardless of the possession of the opportunity, 1913 01:39:10.760 --> 01:39:13.560 it was a very even match game. Uh, this is 1914 01:39:13.640 --> 01:39:17.720 another team that had to rotate, had to move some pieces. 1915 01:39:18.279 --> 01:39:20.600 It was good to see Jonathan Rodriguez back out there. 1916 01:39:20.680 --> 01:39:25.399 He had an opportunity of a goal for Timbers. You 1917 01:39:25.520 --> 01:39:29.720 had Kelsey out there or tism Paradis, so it was 1918 01:39:29.800 --> 01:39:33.239 evenly matched. I thought that the draw was actually a 1919 01:39:33.279 --> 01:39:38.159 pretty fair account. We've all kind of looked into ourselves 1920 01:39:38.159 --> 01:39:42.159 as a team that's starting to move in the right direction. Timbers, 1921 01:39:43.000 --> 01:39:48.279 despite their deficiencies defensively, they've showed us that they have 1922 01:39:48.479 --> 01:39:51.840 enough of a power power up top. Where we're there 1923 01:39:51.880 --> 01:39:54.520 in the standards is more than fair. We'll see what 1924 01:39:54.560 --> 01:39:57.039 happens this weekend. But I thought it was a decent 1925 01:39:57.119 --> 01:40:00.239 game there from ourselves and the Portland Timbers. I had 1926 01:40:00.239 --> 01:40:02.079 to do a little bit of rotation as well. 1927 01:40:02.399 --> 01:40:04.279 All right, I kind of buried the lead here a 1928 01:40:04.319 --> 01:40:04.720 little bit. 1929 01:40:06.119 --> 01:40:10.399 You wanted MLS after Dark, You got MLS after dark 1930 01:40:10.479 --> 01:40:11.359 at PayPal Park. 1931 01:40:12.600 --> 01:40:13.640 That was a poet and didn't know it. 1932 01:40:13.880 --> 01:40:18.199 Uh, Santjose and San Jose and Miami and Messian friend 1933 01:40:18.319 --> 01:40:21.760 Messi and friends in the Earthquakes. It got so out 1934 01:40:21.800 --> 01:40:25.039 of hand that Bruce Arena after the match was over, 1935 01:40:25.239 --> 01:40:29.680 was basically restraining Lionel Messi from going after the officials 1936 01:40:30.039 --> 01:40:33.159 to where he almost got a red if he kept 1937 01:40:33.239 --> 01:40:35.039 doing what he was doing. He got a yellow for 1938 01:40:35.199 --> 01:40:37.800 descent after the match was over. He wanted to go 1939 01:40:37.920 --> 01:40:41.000 back for more. Bruce is trying to restrain him from 1940 01:40:41.039 --> 01:40:43.880 going back for more. It only ended up being a yellow. 1941 01:40:44.479 --> 01:40:47.840 So Maxi Falcone scores in the first minute, Chicho Orongo 1942 01:40:47.920 --> 01:40:51.319 scores in the third. LaRue scores to make it two one. 1943 01:40:51.439 --> 01:40:55.079 San Jose Agende scores to make it too too. Ian 1944 01:40:55.159 --> 01:40:57.239 Hark scored to make it three to two. At forty 1945 01:40:57.319 --> 01:40:59.840 five plus four, that was your score at the break. 1946 01:41:00.199 --> 01:41:02.640 A Jende got his brace in the fifty second, and 1947 01:41:02.760 --> 01:41:04.960 then it was hang on for the final thirty five. 1948 01:41:05.439 --> 01:41:07.399 You had sick, you had five and a half, and 1949 01:41:07.479 --> 01:41:09.279 you had the over. I'm sure you came out hot. 1950 01:41:10.439 --> 01:41:12.960 Yes, I definitely had the over. I actually had the 1951 01:41:13.359 --> 01:41:15.880 four and a half in this one. Did feel like 1952 01:41:15.960 --> 01:41:19.000 it was going to be a draw. It's actually a 1953 01:41:19.199 --> 01:41:23.640 very good game on that regard. But look, the Pink 1954 01:41:23.760 --> 01:41:30.720 Phony Club is very you know, accurate there for this team. 1955 01:41:30.800 --> 01:41:34.239 Right now, the antics by Messi's got to stop, and 1956 01:41:34.359 --> 01:41:36.800 I know I've been criticized and the bots will come 1957 01:41:36.840 --> 01:41:39.079 back to get me again, but Messi needs to relax 1958 01:41:39.119 --> 01:41:42.640 after the games. His frustration should be going elsewhere. I 1959 01:41:42.760 --> 01:41:45.640 thought that just going into this game, there is a 1960 01:41:45.680 --> 01:41:48.720 lot of dysfunction with Inner Miami. A lot of it 1961 01:41:48.840 --> 01:41:52.039 is falling under Haavier Machirouno. He had some statements going 1962 01:41:52.439 --> 01:41:55.359 into this game and after their last game that I 1963 01:41:55.439 --> 01:41:57.840 thought were on call for that I thought were necessarily 1964 01:41:58.399 --> 01:41:59.840 what you want to hear out of your head co 1965 01:42:00.039 --> 01:42:03.119 which we've talked about the defense and the issues there. 1966 01:42:03.279 --> 01:42:06.800 So just the goal that a angle got, I mean, 1967 01:42:07.079 --> 01:42:09.079 this is exactly what we're getting out of Inner Miami. 1968 01:42:09.439 --> 01:42:13.640 Mistakes that were not there before, issues that although defensively 1969 01:42:13.720 --> 01:42:16.279 in the past have been an issue, you had enough 1970 01:42:16.479 --> 01:42:18.199 of a firepower they were going to get back into 1971 01:42:18.239 --> 01:42:21.319 every game. This is San Jose, So three to three 1972 01:42:21.399 --> 01:42:25.520 scoreline should not be making anybody excited that Messi and 1973 01:42:25.560 --> 01:42:26.960 friends got three on on San Jose. 1974 01:42:27.119 --> 01:42:29.239 This is something that we knew was going to happen. 1975 01:42:29.600 --> 01:42:32.159 So what it is that's wrong with this team is 1976 01:42:32.319 --> 01:42:35.479 just an inability to be in control, and I think 1977 01:42:35.560 --> 01:42:38.359 that's why Messi's been so upset. He's used to just 1978 01:42:38.760 --> 01:42:41.560 being able to dominate games and gameplay him and just 1979 01:42:41.720 --> 01:42:43.800 be that guy that holds the reins, and that just 1980 01:42:43.920 --> 01:42:46.960 hasn't been the case. He was pretty involved in this one, 1981 01:42:47.159 --> 01:42:49.720 but not necessarily in the goals. He had a gorgeous 1982 01:42:49.760 --> 01:42:52.239 pass into Giorgio, buta to kind of like the past 1983 01:42:52.279 --> 01:42:54.319 before the past, but you know, he was a little 1984 01:42:54.319 --> 01:42:57.199 bit limited. That's another thing that gets them frustrated. But 1985 01:42:57.720 --> 01:43:00.560 this inner Miami team is just too dependent and all 1986 01:43:00.640 --> 01:43:03.359 you'll know, MESSI. They have a huge issue by not 1987 01:43:03.479 --> 01:43:06.560 having a nine that's scoring goals in the exact same 1988 01:43:06.600 --> 01:43:08.880 pace that Luis Suarez was having it last season. 1989 01:43:09.880 --> 01:43:12.079 Again, I go back to the coaching. 1990 01:43:12.119 --> 01:43:14.520 I think that there are some holes in the way 1991 01:43:14.600 --> 01:43:17.800 the sonstitutions, patterns are happening, the way that you're planning 1992 01:43:17.880 --> 01:43:19.840 the games. I mean, if you go back to what 1993 01:43:19.960 --> 01:43:24.039 happened with Minnesota, it's exactly that you know what Minnesota 1994 01:43:24.399 --> 01:43:27.279 was gonna do, Maturano said after the game. We knew 1995 01:43:27.279 --> 01:43:29.119 what they were gonna do and we couldn't stop it. 1996 01:43:29.399 --> 01:43:31.600 That is now what you want to hear your head coach. 1997 01:43:31.680 --> 01:43:36.479 So to me, the problem and the root costs of 1998 01:43:36.760 --> 01:43:39.079 inner Miami are a lot deeper than you might seem. 1999 01:43:39.399 --> 01:43:41.520 The issues are just the top of the glacier, and 2000 01:43:41.600 --> 01:43:44.560 there's a whole bunch of issues behind it. So look 2001 01:43:45.560 --> 01:43:51.159 I like the phony there caudline for this team because 2002 01:43:51.479 --> 01:43:55.159 it does seem like they're living off of Messi's presence 2003 01:43:55.319 --> 01:43:57.840 what they did last season, but they're having a hard 2004 01:43:57.960 --> 01:43:59.920 time backing it up on. 2005 01:44:00.159 --> 01:44:01.520 The field, no doubt. 2006 01:44:01.720 --> 01:44:05.199 And I want to wrap up what's going on just 2007 01:44:05.319 --> 01:44:07.399 off of my head before we go to what else 2008 01:44:07.439 --> 01:44:09.760 happened last night. Off of the top of your head. 2009 01:44:10.560 --> 01:44:15.159 Lag found yet another way to lose a game. I 2010 01:44:15.279 --> 01:44:19.560 mean you add it to Nilly Clavis and Fagunda scored 2011 01:44:19.640 --> 01:44:22.760 in the first half, and we were I was doing 2012 01:44:22.960 --> 01:44:26.239 a pre and post last night on the radio for 2013 01:44:27.359 --> 01:44:29.479 United and we were looking at that score at the 2014 01:44:29.520 --> 01:44:33.079 break and we're like, going, bruh, what got into Lag? 2015 01:44:33.760 --> 01:44:37.840 And so, of course then the quicksand happens and you 2016 01:44:37.960 --> 01:44:41.039 give up the game winning goal at ninety plus six 2017 01:44:41.920 --> 01:44:45.319 because Ty Barbo and a teammate had an advantage at 2018 01:44:45.359 --> 01:44:47.479 the back post as Michael Owa chips it from one 2019 01:44:47.560 --> 01:44:50.359 side to the other. How you leave two players practically 2020 01:44:50.399 --> 01:44:53.439 on marked I've no idea, but LAG found yet another 2021 01:44:53.520 --> 01:44:55.760 way to lose a match in Philly last night. 2022 01:44:56.560 --> 01:44:58.960 Lack of effort and character from this team in the 2023 01:44:59.000 --> 01:45:02.720 second half. Look, I died to Banny. I thought that 2024 01:45:02.840 --> 01:45:08.640 the false nine Ruth was great. I thought that it worked. 2025 01:45:09.079 --> 01:45:12.119 You had him being able to pull defenders. He's a 2026 01:45:12.199 --> 01:45:14.960 guy that has a huge IQ when it comes to 2027 01:45:15.039 --> 01:45:17.920 the way he plays the game. Always the extra pass. 2028 01:45:18.159 --> 01:45:22.600 He sets up those two first goals brilliantly, the scenarios. 2029 01:45:22.640 --> 01:45:24.560 A guy that this team has missed a lot. He's 2030 01:45:24.680 --> 01:45:28.399 been injured, he hasn't really adapt as quickly as the 2031 01:45:28.439 --> 01:45:31.159 team wanted. But he had a decent game yesterday, so 2032 01:45:31.279 --> 01:45:33.239 a lot of things were going their way. And I 2033 01:45:33.920 --> 01:45:36.680 even went on you know X, and I put it 2034 01:45:36.760 --> 01:45:39.199 out there. You know, I didn't know that this team 2035 01:45:39.279 --> 01:45:41.479 knew how to hold the lead, because they haven't held 2036 01:45:41.520 --> 01:45:44.720 the lead other than one time this entire season. There 2037 01:45:44.920 --> 01:45:47.239 was a stat that was put in the broadcast that 2038 01:45:47.560 --> 01:45:51.239 they've only held the lead sixty minutes all season long. 2039 01:45:51.560 --> 01:45:54.039 Sixty minutes. That's as much as they've had it. 2040 01:45:54.359 --> 01:45:56.039 And in this one they didn't know what to do 2041 01:45:56.159 --> 01:45:59.199 with it, which in what ways and We've said this 2042 01:45:59.319 --> 01:46:01.520 in the exact same show. In what ways can a 2043 01:46:01.640 --> 01:46:05.680 team that is that you're being able to contain and handle, 2044 01:46:06.079 --> 01:46:07.920 in what ways do you allow them back into the 2045 01:46:08.000 --> 01:46:11.359 game set pieces that should have been known. That's exactly 2046 01:46:11.439 --> 01:46:14.079 what Philadelphia was going to do, and they did it, 2047 01:46:14.399 --> 01:46:20.000 high intensity secondary balls. They literally bullied the LA Galaxy 2048 01:46:20.079 --> 01:46:22.560 in the second half. I thought it was seven shots 2049 01:46:22.600 --> 01:46:26.439 to one in the second half. I mean, something outrageous. 2050 01:46:27.279 --> 01:46:31.000 LA Galaxy just did not have the grit, did not 2051 01:46:31.159 --> 01:46:34.119 have that age factor as we call it in South 2052 01:46:34.199 --> 01:46:35.720 America and factor ache. 2053 01:46:36.119 --> 01:46:37.079 They just didn't have it. 2054 01:46:38.680 --> 01:46:41.800 And that's kind of what it's missing here from this 2055 01:46:41.960 --> 01:46:44.439 team and they just have to have no response. You 2056 01:46:44.560 --> 01:46:48.119 cannot allow, like you said, Maribo to get that type 2057 01:46:48.159 --> 01:46:51.720 of hander in that specific moment when you and I 2058 01:46:51.800 --> 01:46:55.319 think it's Joshida that goes to ground, when you know 2059 01:46:55.399 --> 01:46:58.720 the player that's carrying the ball is running away from you, 2060 01:46:58.840 --> 01:47:00.680 you go, you go to ground, You allow him to 2061 01:47:00.680 --> 01:47:03.279 turn around put that ball back in. I mean, it's 2062 01:47:03.479 --> 01:47:06.119 just mistake after mistake, issue after issue. 2063 01:47:06.319 --> 01:47:07.680 But for me, the biggest. 2064 01:47:07.920 --> 01:47:11.560 Concern is the character and that inability to come back 2065 01:47:11.960 --> 01:47:13.720 and get yourself back into the game. 2066 01:47:14.000 --> 01:47:16.720 Okay, so please explain to those of us who have 2067 01:47:16.960 --> 01:47:18.319 this is the first time I've heard this term. What 2068 01:47:18.439 --> 01:47:18.960 is this factor? 2069 01:47:19.399 --> 01:47:23.640 What is this FACTORACI? Is the the grid that comes 2070 01:47:23.720 --> 01:47:30.000 from the the the h is to uh how do 2071 01:47:30.119 --> 01:47:30.560 I say. 2072 01:47:30.399 --> 01:47:34.039 It is the hosess? 2073 01:47:34.439 --> 01:47:34.640 Yeah? 2074 01:47:34.720 --> 01:47:36.399 Yeah, so that that's kind of what it is. It's 2075 01:47:36.479 --> 01:47:39.640 just that factor of like extra strength. And they call 2076 01:47:39.680 --> 01:47:44.399 it FACTORACI because it's the unexplicable. Is just the inability 2077 01:47:44.439 --> 01:47:46.119 to just get you back in the game, right. 2078 01:47:46.039 --> 01:47:46.319 That that. 2079 01:47:47.960 --> 01:47:51.239 The strength to just get you through bad moments in 2080 01:47:51.439 --> 01:47:54.560 in the games. And that's kind of what this Allegalaxy 2081 01:47:54.640 --> 01:48:00.359 team just missed. It's almost as if they were afraid. 2082 01:48:01.239 --> 01:48:02.920 As soon as the second half started, they were just 2083 01:48:03.039 --> 01:48:05.479 waiting for things to go wrong, and as soon as 2084 01:48:05.520 --> 01:48:07.880 they did, they just went back to old habits. 2085 01:48:08.119 --> 01:48:10.199 And they have nobody on the field that can get 2086 01:48:10.279 --> 01:48:12.640 him out of there. And I thought Pagundas could do it. 2087 01:48:12.960 --> 01:48:14.920 I thought Rails could do it, and none of them 2088 01:48:14.960 --> 01:48:17.279 seem to have any idea on how to get this 2089 01:48:17.399 --> 01:48:17.840 team going. 2090 01:48:18.359 --> 01:48:20.600 So testicular fortitude is factor. 2091 01:48:21.680 --> 01:48:23.560 There you go, that is exactly it. 2092 01:48:23.920 --> 01:48:28.920 Okay, testicular fortitude. Okay, what else stuck out? Last night 2093 01:48:29.000 --> 01:48:31.520 from you, whether it's on that coast or in the 2094 01:48:31.560 --> 01:48:34.239 Eastern Conference, what else stuck out from you from last night? 2095 01:48:35.159 --> 01:48:36.960 Man Orlando is a force to be reckon with. 2096 01:48:37.439 --> 01:48:40.119 Mouriell looks like that Muriella that said yeah, and I 2097 01:48:40.199 --> 01:48:42.039 know you hate to hear that because I know the 2098 01:48:42.079 --> 01:48:45.800 Purple team is not your favorite, But Martino Heada has 2099 01:48:46.119 --> 01:48:49.399 played himself into the MVP conversation. I think that they're 2100 01:48:49.439 --> 01:48:52.640 a team that has a ton of power. Ramiro and 2101 01:48:52.720 --> 01:48:55.119 Riquez course heres today. I mean there's just so many 2102 01:48:55.560 --> 01:48:58.600 another team that has so many weapons offensively that they're 2103 01:48:58.680 --> 01:49:02.359 just going to be an issue. Charlotte obviously a team 2104 01:49:02.439 --> 01:49:05.920 that has issues of their own, but still a quality squad. 2105 01:49:06.239 --> 01:49:08.000 And I mean I think they lost fourth in a 2106 01:49:08.079 --> 01:49:11.239 row as well for Charlotte, but there's still a team 2107 01:49:11.319 --> 01:49:12.920 that you know, when you get out there and you 2108 01:49:13.039 --> 01:49:15.720 play them in that manner, it turns head. So for me, 2109 01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:19.600 Poppy is doing a great job with his Orlando City team, 2110 01:49:19.880 --> 01:49:21.520 and I think they're going to be a force to 2111 01:49:21.560 --> 01:49:22.119 be reckon with. 2112 01:49:22.800 --> 01:49:22.920 Uh. 2113 01:49:23.159 --> 01:49:27.319 San Diego uh playing Colorado the way they did, I 2114 01:49:27.399 --> 01:49:30.439 thought that the great thing about San Diego, even when 2115 01:49:30.479 --> 01:49:34.159 they're kind of up and down. What keeps him, what 2116 01:49:34.319 --> 01:49:37.159 keeps the floor highs that they understand what they want 2117 01:49:37.199 --> 01:49:41.479 to do. Set pieces, We're gonna press high, We're gonna 2118 01:49:41.479 --> 01:49:44.199 make it uncomfortable. And I thought yesterday they did a 2119 01:49:44.279 --> 01:49:49.079 fantasy Japans Colorado, especially with Jody, that they did not 2120 01:49:49.199 --> 01:49:50.399 let him do absolutely anything. 2121 01:49:51.239 --> 01:49:53.560 Even in the p K. They're chirping at his ear. 2122 01:49:54.000 --> 01:49:56.680 You could tell that he's bothered he misses the p 2123 01:49:56.800 --> 01:49:59.640 K or is well stopped by the goalkeeper. But I 2124 01:49:59.840 --> 01:50:03.439 just love the functionality of San Diego. I feel like 2125 01:50:03.600 --> 01:50:07.600 because they had a bat spell here in the season, 2126 01:50:07.920 --> 01:50:10.640 people started to dismiss them. Do not dismiss that team. 2127 01:50:10.720 --> 01:50:13.359 Do not make that mistake. This is the quality squad 2128 01:50:13.399 --> 01:50:15.000 that could be a problem in the playoffs. 2129 01:50:15.560 --> 01:50:18.600 DC United a goaliztraw with NYC. Montreal had a lead, 2130 01:50:18.720 --> 01:50:21.479 Columbus got an equalizer, so it was shared results there. 2131 01:50:22.359 --> 01:50:29.039 Cincinnati over Toronto. News out of Cincinnati this morning. I 2132 01:50:29.159 --> 01:50:32.960 believe they signed w Bodo to a contract extension that 2133 01:50:33.039 --> 01:50:36.840 came across this morning. Houston an interesting one at Hell 2134 01:50:36.920 --> 01:50:38.880 and a Shell. They shut out Minnesota, which I thought 2135 01:50:39.000 --> 01:50:42.680 was intriguing, and then Natal and then Nashville over Red 2136 01:50:42.720 --> 01:50:45.399 Bulls two one, Saint Louis and All Caps. In Kansas 2137 01:50:45.439 --> 01:50:48.920 City they had a to two draw. Atlanta and Austin had. 2138 01:50:49.279 --> 01:50:50.319 A couple of things there. 2139 01:50:51.039 --> 01:50:54.039 I think the biggest news out of DC is that 2140 01:50:54.600 --> 01:50:58.520 once again been tech INGOs out early in the first half. 2141 01:50:59.399 --> 01:51:04.600 Second time season. That's gonna be problematic. Cincinnati getting Kamara 2142 01:51:04.720 --> 01:51:06.039 he played some minutes yesterday. 2143 01:51:06.279 --> 01:51:07.800 I thought that was a great get. 2144 01:51:08.000 --> 01:51:08.159 You know. 2145 01:51:08.520 --> 01:51:12.119 I was at one point thinking when Seattle wasn't getting 2146 01:51:12.159 --> 01:51:14.640 goals from their backups, I thought that maybe they would 2147 01:51:14.640 --> 01:51:17.119 go out there and get them, but obviously they didn't. 2148 01:51:17.279 --> 01:51:18.960 It's kind of cool to see him there. It did 2149 01:51:18.960 --> 01:51:25.279 in Nashville. Oh my goodness, what is the number muktark. 2150 01:51:25.520 --> 01:51:30.199 It's looking like mukt revolt bj Callahan has resurrected the 2151 01:51:30.520 --> 01:51:34.279 chip of inspiration that had this guy as a former 2152 01:51:34.439 --> 01:51:37.159 MVP that we had not seen for a couple of seasons. 2153 01:51:37.399 --> 01:51:38.640 They did the best of if I've seen him in 2154 01:51:39.039 --> 01:51:41.520 quite some time. Happy for Mukter, Happy for Nashville. 2155 01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:45.000 All right, So it is a rivalry weekend coming up here. 2156 01:51:45.079 --> 01:51:48.680 Three matches in eight days for most. We'll go through 2157 01:51:48.760 --> 01:51:50.560 some of the ones that are here on the board 2158 01:51:51.640 --> 01:51:55.560 hell is real Columbus minus one zho four Hosting Cincinnati. 2159 01:51:55.640 --> 01:51:58.920 Cincinnati is a plus two fifty nine and the draw 2160 01:51:59.119 --> 01:52:00.439 is a plus two six three. 2161 01:52:00.800 --> 01:52:04.520 You've also got Cincinnati's a plus what two five nine? 2162 01:52:05.239 --> 01:52:05.560 Wow? 2163 01:52:06.680 --> 01:52:08.479 Hey, hey, that that cost my name. 2164 01:52:08.560 --> 01:52:17.079 Look Columbus, Columbus has been good, but Cincinnati has more playmakers. Cincinnati. Uh, 2165 01:52:17.439 --> 01:52:19.880 if you did not see Dankis goal, go back and 2166 01:52:19.960 --> 01:52:22.319 see it. That dude put everybody on skates. 2167 01:52:22.880 --> 01:52:23.000 Uh. 2168 01:52:23.119 --> 01:52:25.239 He's not just the buffet guy on the field, but 2169 01:52:25.319 --> 01:52:27.840 he tends to be one of the most talented. I 2170 01:52:27.920 --> 01:52:30.760 think that him and Evander are a great match. Both 2171 01:52:30.800 --> 01:52:33.039 guys can change the game at any moment. Give me 2172 01:52:33.199 --> 01:52:36.600 that game, give me Cincinnati. That's gonna be a good one. 2173 01:52:36.640 --> 01:52:39.520 And look, no disrespect Columbus in their style and their 2174 01:52:39.560 --> 01:52:42.199 way of play, but when it comes to game changers 2175 01:52:42.239 --> 01:52:44.560 and who's gonna win it, I feel like Cincinnati has 2176 01:52:44.600 --> 01:52:47.159 more of those players right now than Columbus does. 2177 01:52:47.600 --> 01:52:51.199 The Bruce Arena Bowl is at seven forty Eastern time 2178 01:52:51.680 --> 01:52:56.399 last night, REVS hosting San Jose. Rev's a reminus one 2179 01:52:56.479 --> 01:52:59.800 zero four. Santaose's a plus two forty two and this 2180 01:52:59.880 --> 01:53:02.640 is off the heel. So basically what you've done is 2181 01:53:02.680 --> 01:53:06.119 you've constructed the Bruce Arena Bowl. After San Jose put 2182 01:53:07.279 --> 01:53:09.319 a total put three on the board six total in 2183 01:53:09.359 --> 01:53:10.920 a match. And by the way, your plus four and 2184 01:53:10.960 --> 01:53:13.640 a half was about a plus two to fifty, so 2185 01:53:13.960 --> 01:53:17.000 you were okay there. So San Jose has to go 2186 01:53:17.079 --> 01:53:19.119 through what they went through going up against Messi and friends. 2187 01:53:19.159 --> 01:53:21.520 Now they have to fly across the country to be 2188 01:53:21.800 --> 01:53:25.840 a night game in Foxborough against the Revs. I mean, 2189 01:53:26.399 --> 01:53:28.840 who is schedule maker? And why are you playing? Why 2190 01:53:28.920 --> 01:53:30.239 is Homie playing like this man? 2191 01:53:32.079 --> 01:53:39.199 Yeah? Yeah, that is completely logistically wrong. But look, the 2192 01:53:39.680 --> 01:53:42.920 bad news for San Jose is that Chile came off injured. 2193 01:53:43.600 --> 01:53:47.399 Hopefully is nothing big regardless of I think this is 2194 01:53:47.439 --> 01:53:50.800 gonna be a high scoring game. We've seen San Jose 2195 01:53:50.920 --> 01:53:52.439 give up a lot of goals who seem score a 2196 01:53:52.479 --> 01:53:54.840 lot of goals. Same things for New England, even in 2197 01:53:54.960 --> 01:53:58.279 their new form that they found. I feel like there's 2198 01:53:58.319 --> 01:54:01.199 gonna be a draw that would at least go two two. 2199 01:54:03.399 --> 01:54:06.119 I would be willing to go with Don Jose if 2200 01:54:06.159 --> 01:54:08.800 I knew that chiechoid angle was fine. But that's the 2201 01:54:08.880 --> 01:54:11.319 only thing that's holding me back. However, like I said, 2202 01:54:11.439 --> 01:54:14.039 I like the draw. I like that two two, so 2203 01:54:14.560 --> 01:54:16.720 I would do it three and a half in this one. 2204 01:54:17.159 --> 01:54:20.159 I might even be interested depending on later down the line. 2205 01:54:20.279 --> 01:54:22.239 See what cheachers at to go beyond that? 2206 01:54:22.720 --> 01:54:25.600 Well, San Jose, the draw is a plus two eighty 2207 01:54:25.760 --> 01:54:26.960 two in the computit. 2208 01:54:27.119 --> 01:54:27.479 I like that. 2209 01:54:28.159 --> 01:54:31.520 So you're over under. Three and a half is a 2210 01:54:31.560 --> 01:54:33.520 plus one fifty one. They're not thinking there's gonna be 2211 01:54:33.560 --> 01:54:34.960 a whole lot of goals here, So three and a 2212 01:54:35.000 --> 01:54:36.880 half is a plus one fifty one. Four and a 2213 01:54:36.920 --> 01:54:38.319 half is a plus three forty six. 2214 01:54:38.800 --> 01:54:40.600 Oh yeah, no, no, no, that three and a half. 2215 01:54:40.640 --> 01:54:42.279 That two to two sounds real good to me. 2216 01:54:43.199 --> 01:54:44.119 I like that as well. 2217 01:54:44.319 --> 01:54:47.640 All right, let's skip ahead to Cascadia, Portland and Seattle. 2218 01:54:47.840 --> 01:54:51.479 It is nine thirty Eastern Times, Saturday night. Portland is 2219 01:54:51.560 --> 01:54:55.399 a plus one seventy three draws a plus two fitty 2220 01:54:55.920 --> 01:54:58.920 and Seattle is a plus one forty one after having 2221 01:54:59.079 --> 01:55:01.000 rotated against LA in the midweek. 2222 01:55:02.359 --> 01:55:05.520 Not great numbers, but give me Seattle. Give me Seattle. 2223 01:55:05.600 --> 01:55:08.399 Going into this game, I feel like they've been stable. 2224 01:55:09.960 --> 01:55:12.119 This is a great wake up call here midweek. The 2225 01:55:12.199 --> 01:55:15.479 team is going to want to get that game completely 2226 01:55:15.560 --> 01:55:19.079 behind them by putting in a good performance. Love what 2227 01:55:19.199 --> 01:55:25.119 Petri's been doing. You get arrested, Christian arrested, Ovid arrested. 2228 01:55:25.239 --> 01:55:29.119 Back line, it sounded like the team is starting to 2229 01:55:29.159 --> 01:55:32.159 get some players back, so Reagan, he you know, may 2230 01:55:32.199 --> 01:55:35.960 be available for this one as well. So to me, 2231 01:55:36.680 --> 01:55:40.479 although the Timbers have been good at times and there's 2232 01:55:40.520 --> 01:55:43.800 still a team that focuses a lot on the offensive power, 2233 01:55:44.520 --> 01:55:50.800 I like Seattle's defensive presence to minimize the Timbers fortitude 2234 01:55:50.880 --> 01:55:54.600 up top, and Seattle being the more balanced being able 2235 01:55:54.720 --> 01:55:58.760 to get going. I love the possession spells that we've 2236 01:55:58.800 --> 01:56:03.319 seen from Seattle lately. A couple of goals that is 2237 01:56:03.439 --> 01:56:07.119 sixteen seventeen eighteen passes put together. I think that they're 2238 01:56:07.159 --> 01:56:09.840 really gonna have possession in this game, and they're gonna 2239 01:56:09.880 --> 01:56:13.600 make Timbers very uncomfortable. Obviously, you've got to be careful 2240 01:56:13.640 --> 01:56:16.760 with the direct play with their speed out wide. By me, 2241 01:56:17.520 --> 01:56:19.600 Seattle is the better team going into this game, and 2242 01:56:19.640 --> 01:56:20.640 I'm gonna go with Seattle. 2243 01:56:21.079 --> 01:56:25.119 Sunday Sunday Night Soccer early is MESSI and friends hosting 2244 01:56:25.199 --> 01:56:27.239 the Purple team. I know a lot of folks may 2245 01:56:27.279 --> 01:56:31.119 sit there and say, can neither team win at a 2246 01:56:31.159 --> 01:56:34.199 plus two seventy eight. You can have that MESSI and 2247 01:56:34.279 --> 01:56:36.560 friends are minus one oh six and the Purple team 2248 01:56:36.680 --> 01:56:38.960 heading to the Erector set or a plus two forty nine. 2249 01:56:39.039 --> 01:56:39.520 What do you think? 2250 01:56:40.439 --> 01:56:43.159 Give me a purple team and uh, this is gonna 2251 01:56:43.159 --> 01:56:48.560 be another scoring affair in my regard, So I would 2252 01:56:48.560 --> 01:56:51.159 definitely go over three and a half easy and I 2253 01:56:51.199 --> 01:56:57.239 would take Orlando's city. Look, Miami, it's I don't want 2254 01:56:57.239 --> 01:56:58.560 to get too ahead of myself, but it seems like 2255 01:56:58.560 --> 01:57:01.720 they're uploading. Even when things are going right like they 2256 01:57:02.119 --> 01:57:05.800 did yesterday, it's still not good enough. Agenda is starting 2257 01:57:05.840 --> 01:57:07.760 to get his stick back under him. 2258 01:57:07.680 --> 01:57:08.279 Which is good. 2259 01:57:09.039 --> 01:57:11.720 But when you have an Orlando team that is in 2260 01:57:11.840 --> 01:57:16.199 this sort of form going against the inn Miami team 2261 01:57:16.359 --> 01:57:20.800 that is so poor at rest defense, that seems to 2262 01:57:20.920 --> 01:57:22.880 be having a lot of issues when he comes to 2263 01:57:22.920 --> 01:57:26.640 set pieces, and that to me is gonna give this 2264 01:57:26.880 --> 01:57:28.159 Orlando team a lot of. 2265 01:57:28.199 --> 01:57:32.079 Space to play with. I like Orlando, man, I like it. 2266 01:57:32.319 --> 01:57:34.399 Maybe I'll be wrong, and you know, the inner Miami 2267 01:57:34.439 --> 01:57:36.520 fans will be all over me, but to me, the 2268 01:57:36.600 --> 01:57:39.119 Purple team in this one is probably going to be 2269 01:57:39.159 --> 01:57:39.479 the winner. 2270 01:57:40.000 --> 01:57:42.600 Plus one thirty six for your three and a half. 2271 01:57:42.760 --> 01:57:44.560 By the way, so it is on the plus side 2272 01:57:44.720 --> 01:57:48.239 plus one thirty six. El Traffico, What do you think. 2273 01:57:50.279 --> 01:57:53.079 It could be a trap game for LAOC. Look, I 2274 01:57:53.239 --> 01:58:02.079 understand that LA Galaxy just had the great, the proud 2275 01:58:02.239 --> 01:58:05.640 badge of having the worst start in MLS history after 2276 01:58:05.800 --> 01:58:09.039 what they did against Philadelphia. But it could be a 2277 01:58:09.159 --> 01:58:12.479 catch game, man, I don't know. I'm really gonna try 2278 01:58:12.479 --> 01:58:14.399 to stay away from this one. Give me the numbers 2279 01:58:14.439 --> 01:58:18.880 either way. LAFC clearly the heavy favorite. LAFC clearly the 2280 01:58:18.960 --> 01:58:21.159 team that no one is expecting to lose this one. 2281 01:58:21.520 --> 01:58:23.720 But those are the one those are the ones. 2282 01:58:23.600 --> 01:58:24.800 That will come back and get you. 2283 01:58:25.560 --> 01:58:27.640 If I will say anything for the La Galaxies that 2284 01:58:27.720 --> 01:58:30.279 they showed a little bit of hard At least there 2285 01:58:30.399 --> 01:58:34.279 was a poles in this game against Philadelphia. So can 2286 01:58:34.399 --> 01:58:36.600 they built off of that? Can Vanny do it? 2287 01:58:37.039 --> 01:58:39.039 I don't know, But what are the numbers on it? 2288 01:58:39.720 --> 01:58:43.199 Plus one twelve for LAFC on the road going to 2289 01:58:43.359 --> 01:58:47.680 Carson Carson FC is a plus two sixteen and your 2290 01:58:47.800 --> 01:58:49.479 draw is a plus two fifty nine. 2291 01:58:49.760 --> 01:58:51.880 Oh, it's not good enough for me to take that risk. 2292 01:58:52.279 --> 01:58:54.319 It's just not good enough for me. But I thought 2293 01:58:54.359 --> 01:58:55.880 that the numbers would be a lot higher for this 2294 01:58:56.239 --> 01:58:58.800 than in the water LA Galaxy team. But that tells 2295 01:58:58.840 --> 01:59:02.279 you that there is some sort of you know thought 2296 01:59:02.479 --> 01:59:03.479 that that you know as. 2297 01:59:03.399 --> 01:59:05.159 A catch game, maybe they'll get it. 2298 01:59:05.399 --> 01:59:09.600 Uh ah, Man, I'll go with l C. I mean, 2299 01:59:09.920 --> 01:59:13.319 just that's what rationale will tell you. That's what you 2300 01:59:13.399 --> 01:59:16.600 know the numbers will indicate. I think l a f C, 2301 01:59:17.279 --> 01:59:20.680 even regardless of who's up top, has good I think 2302 01:59:20.880 --> 01:59:22.359 Ordas is a guy that has done a lot of 2303 01:59:22.399 --> 01:59:25.399 great things for this team. Uh Denny Bwanga, he always 2304 01:59:25.439 --> 01:59:27.680 plays great against La Galaxy. 2305 01:59:28.079 --> 01:59:28.880 I really like what. 2306 01:59:30.399 --> 01:59:32.680 The Jesuits has been doing. Man Yestually he puts a 2307 01:59:32.760 --> 01:59:37.000 ball in a dime uh and creates a goal for 2308 01:59:37.279 --> 01:59:40.680 l a C. Uh that la pe La Martinez, although 2309 01:59:40.720 --> 01:59:44.800 he gets caught off sides. Think he does a little 2310 01:59:44.880 --> 01:59:47.319 move against the Sounders where he's just like a little spin, 2311 01:59:47.640 --> 01:59:49.039 gets in from the goal, puts it in the back 2312 01:59:49.079 --> 01:59:51.159 of the net. I think that the LFC team just 2313 01:59:51.319 --> 01:59:53.239 is a little bit too powerful for the La Galaxy 2314 01:59:53.319 --> 01:59:57.640 squad that's having so many issues defensively. So let's go 2315 01:59:57.720 --> 01:59:59.920 with LAC. But I'm not putting my money on it. 2316 02:00:00.199 --> 02:00:02.039 I have a feeling that there could be there's too 2317 02:00:02.119 --> 02:00:04.199 much of a chance of something going wrong for me 2318 02:00:04.279 --> 02:00:05.000 to put money on it. 2319 02:00:05.239 --> 02:00:08.279 Yeah and uh yeah, So that's probably the safe, the 2320 02:00:08.319 --> 02:00:11.039 safer play for your wallet and the sanity there at 2321 02:00:11.079 --> 02:00:15.720 the at the office for the Nico HD. You know, 2322 02:00:15.800 --> 02:00:18.560 I can't I can't let you go without Atlanta and Philly. 2323 02:00:18.600 --> 02:00:21.479 Atlanta's favor of the plus one twenty three. Philadelphia is 2324 02:00:21.479 --> 02:00:24.359 almost a plus two hundred. Your draws a plus two 2325 02:00:24.439 --> 02:00:24.960 fifty nine. 2326 02:00:25.039 --> 02:00:25.520 What do you think? 2327 02:00:27.439 --> 02:00:31.439 So tough matchup for Atlanta United Man. And you know 2328 02:00:31.920 --> 02:00:34.199 that's one of the last games that I watched yesterday, 2329 02:00:34.359 --> 02:00:39.359 was that Austin Atlanta game. Two teams that put a 2330 02:00:39.439 --> 02:00:41.720 lot of money this season into their offense. And he 2331 02:00:41.800 --> 02:00:44.880 didn't look like that actually, you know, on the rone, 2332 02:00:44.920 --> 02:00:49.119 missing that one on one against the goalkeepers. Stuart Stewart 2333 02:00:49.319 --> 02:00:51.800 does a great job at just making himself big. But 2334 02:00:51.920 --> 02:00:54.960 the fact that alm Run didn't just chip him, oh man, 2335 02:00:55.000 --> 02:00:59.039 he just he just talks about the lack of confidence 2336 02:00:59.159 --> 02:01:01.359 that Atlanta has in so many areas of the field. 2337 02:01:01.960 --> 02:01:04.359 I was surprised to see Basquet has put away a 2338 02:01:04.439 --> 02:01:06.920 free kick, by the way, but it was beautiful free kick. 2339 02:01:07.319 --> 02:01:08.479 We were too trust me. 2340 02:01:09.159 --> 02:01:10.640 Yeah it was. It was a great, great shot, but 2341 02:01:10.720 --> 02:01:13.479 I was surprised. But going back to Atlanta, I just 2342 02:01:13.560 --> 02:01:14.199 don't know if. 2343 02:01:14.159 --> 02:01:20.960 They're confident enough to beat a very confident Philadelphia team. Look, 2344 02:01:21.000 --> 02:01:24.119 Cornell's done a great job with this squad, has changed 2345 02:01:24.319 --> 02:01:25.680 the identity of that team. 2346 02:01:26.000 --> 02:01:27.359 I think Barribo's really good. 2347 02:01:27.600 --> 02:01:30.439 Even Badoia, it seems to have re found a little 2348 02:01:30.439 --> 02:01:34.560 bit of dead fruits of youth and it's looking very good. 2349 02:01:34.680 --> 02:01:39.159 I just think that Philadelphia there's too many of the 2350 02:01:39.279 --> 02:01:42.720 fundamentals thing right for Atlanta to win this game. So 2351 02:01:42.760 --> 02:01:45.119 I hate to say it, but I think Philadelphia will 2352 02:01:45.159 --> 02:01:48.720 take this one. They might take it easier than than 2353 02:01:48.760 --> 02:01:49.239 people think. 2354 02:01:49.760 --> 02:01:51.920 All right, so hit the promo for me. What's going 2355 02:01:51.960 --> 02:01:53.840 on with Polso Sports and Sounder at Heart. 2356 02:01:54.960 --> 02:01:56.960 Yes, sir, we are going to have a couple of 2357 02:01:57.039 --> 02:01:59.640 days off because the Sounders won't be back and the 2358 02:01:59.760 --> 02:02:01.079 train in the field, or at least we won't have 2359 02:02:01.079 --> 02:02:05.319 availability into Friday. But obviously Friday will have everything that 2360 02:02:06.000 --> 02:02:08.239 comes out of that day. I'm sure we'll have brand 2361 02:02:08.239 --> 02:02:11.760 Smester talking right before the derby I'm definitely gonna get 2362 02:02:11.800 --> 02:02:16.000 a one on one with Andy Rose to talk tactics, 2363 02:02:16.119 --> 02:02:21.399 talk defense going into this game, and everything else that 2364 02:02:21.479 --> 02:02:22.600 comes up on YouTube. 2365 02:02:22.680 --> 02:02:23.680 But when it comes to. 2366 02:02:25.239 --> 02:02:28.479 What's already set up Fridays with Jeremiah, of course, what 2367 02:02:28.600 --> 02:02:30.720 we learned this week is going to be a little 2368 02:02:30.760 --> 02:02:35.199 bit of two games, right LFC.
