Well, we thought the first-leg matches of the UEFA Women's Champions League were going to be bangers, and we've never been more correct about anything in the history of this show. To start the show, we tackled Chelsea's incredible 1-0 victory over Barcelona in Spain (!!!), where the Blues were able to neutralize Barca's key attacking players. We talked about the great work from Jess Carter, Ashley Lawrence, Kadeisha Buchanan, and Niamh Charles in the back. And you know we had to

USWNT is going to face Brazil in the CONCACAF W Gold Cup Final.USWNT defeated Canada in dangerous conditions, but we try not to harp too much on the obvious stupidity of playing football on an unplayable pitch. Brazil defeated Mexico in a match where they looked like the better team, but a (semi-questionable?) red card colored some's view of the match. And even with those caveats, football is great, and everyone should love it. We then preview what USWNT-Brazil could look like and whether or

Then we talk about Mexico-Paraguay, where Mexico was in control, then it was slightly in doubt, then they were back in control, then it was in doubt again, and then... yeah, you get the picture. We

Mexico scored a decisive 2-0 victory over the USWNT on Monday in the CONCACAF W Gold Cup. But was it poor form, bad strategy, or the wrong 11 for the stars and stripes? Or how about some other options: Was Mexico just as physical and prepared? Does La Tri just have excellent players who showcased their skill in a huge spot? We tackle those questions and send our apologies (in two languages) to Mexico for overlooking them. After that, we chat about USA drawing Linda Caicedo, Catalina Usme, and a

The past week was light on Champions League football, but there was still plenty of elite women's club football to watch from around the world. Dino and Grant started with the Division 1 Arkema clash between Lyon and PSG (whaddya know, two UWCL teams). This match had a little bit of everything, and we left thinking our new pals from Paris should be feeling quite confident right now.
