2022/08/17

Arya Allahverdi, who runs the Gol Bezan podcast, joins the pod to discuss an Iranian national team that's had its share of controversy, mostly surrounding the coach, Dragan Skočić, who was sacked and then un-sacked this summer after a poor friendly against Algeria. But Iran has several talented players, particularly in the attack, and Allahverdi thinks they'll come out and play at the World Cup, especially against the U.S. He also gives his preferred starting XI.If you want to skip straight to the

2022/08/15

Vince in Louisville and Tara in Philly join Belz to talk about the second group stage game of the World Cup for the U.S. women's under-20 team, a 3-0 loss to the Netherlands. Lots of rotation, some suboptimal individual performances, a lack of flowing attack, and we get beaten on a high header, a blast from 30 and a penalty. Next is Japan and we gotta win by 2 goals to advance.Please support Scuffed on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/scuffed

Scuffed | USMNT, World Cup, Yanks Abroad, futbol in... ·

2022/07/20

Greg is aghast at Canada's defensive shape after the U.S. spent pretty much the whole game running attacking drills at naked centerbacks. We could be sharper in the final third, obviously, but we just absolutely dominated the Olympic champions and weren't troubled at all until Vlatko's self-inflicted tardiness with substitutions.By the way this is our 300th episode in the public feed.

Not our finest hour, not Mexico's either and the federation is now undergoing a massive shakeup. But the US wins the group and does it with dominance, not conceding once. Greg gives most of the performance a pass because it was a dead rubber, but it was awfully disjointed.support Scuffed on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/scuffedScuffed listener survey: https://forms.gle/sBXXSaJ8jnP6RZDY6 join the Discord: https://discord.gg/X6tfzkM8XU buy our merch:
