Between the Champions League, the Prem, and La Liga all in action over the last few days, we had to divvy things up. No league talk on this week's episode, but we go over all of the Ro16 matches in the Champions League and who the favorites to go one step further might be!

Episode 197: The Red Wedding

What did we witness on Sunday? Was it real? Was it a simulation? After a day of processing, we've come to the conclusion that it REALLY DID HAPPEN! From the North West derby, Arsenal's late dramatics, and a thumping win for Atletico Madrid over Sevilla, there was almost too much to go over this week. But, really, there's never too much footy.

While European competition waits in the wake, this past weekend still featured a multitude of big games. From United's first trophy win in over 5 years to what was actually a somewhat boring (and not uncommonly boring) Madrid Derby, we go over it all! Stay tuned until the end for an Elyas-induced Barcelona rant! P.S. Enjoy the uncut intro :)

2023/02/24

SO much happened this week in European competition for Spanish teams, both big and small! On this week's La Liga specific episode, we cover the historic win for Real Madrid at Anfield, Barcelona getting knocked out of Europe for the 4th time in a little over a year, and some of the ups and downs going on at Sevilla and Valencia.

2023/02/14

Look, we're still reeling from the SuperBowl loss, but we found enough energy to get together and record. Just for all of you. Just to name a few topics this week, we touch on the title race in the Premier League between Arsenal and Manchester City (including a preview of Wednesday's match), Spurs disappointing showing against Leicester, a fantastic match up in Celta Vigo vs Atletico, a surprising goal scoring record from Pedri. Plus, European football sort of snuck up on us this week. Oh, and Rheon

Episode 192: The Final Countdown

2023/01/31

With the January transfer window wrapping up today, we thought, what more fitting episode to do than a transfer round up one (of course, we sprinkled in some analysis from this past weekend's set of league and cup games). From Cancelo to Bryan Gil, we go over all the real and possibly real news. By the time you're listening to this, deadline day may be wrapped up, but the crazy rumors are guaranteed to continue past this week.

Episode 191: Iso Football

2023/01/27

With league games, cup games, and even a USMNT international friendly, we go through a LOT on this week's episode! Unfortunately, we both spent time watching Liverpool play Chelsea last weekend, but were at least redeemed by watching high quality football as Arsenal went on to beat United. Over in La Liga, the Copa Del Rey games took precedence for most of the top teams in Spain and there are a LOT of narratives there too.

Episode 190: MONEY

2023/01/18

The title might not be self-explanatory, but I promise if you get through the first few minutes, you'll understand. We're BACK this week talking all the big games across England and Spain from the NLD Derby, the Manchester Derby, El Clasico, and much, much more! Of course, we have to highlight the teams on the up and the down, from Sevilla, Chelsea, Atletico, and Liverpool. So. Much. Football.

Episode 189: This Isn't Football Manager

2023/01/09

Last week was weeeeeeeird with so many games, different competitions, and what felt like at least 2 games a day for the whole weekday. BUT, we go over it all on this week's episode covering everything from last weekend's 0-0 draw between Arsenal and Newcastle, a few very disappointing teams now (sorry Chelsea fans, Rheon is hurting with you), and a look ahead towards the Manchester Derby and North London Derby next weekend. We'll be back talking La Liga very soon with Real Madrid dropping points and

The title really says it all. We're still getting over the World Cup fever, so bare with us as we adjust back to "normal life". BUT, this week we talk all about the Boxing Day games, why Newcastle are Champions League bound next season, whether Arsenal can continue their incredible run this season (yes), and why Darwin Núñez is a top, top talent!

2022/12/21

The 2022 Qatar World Cup has wrapped up and, in some ways, it feels like football itself has come to a fitting end. After possibly the best match of soccer EVER played, Lionel Messi is now a World Cup winner, his country flooded with emotion, and Mbappe continued to cement his legacy as one of the world's best. We go through all of the massive moments from this edition of the World Cup and the legacies behind it.

Episode 186: Can Brazil Win it All?

The Overlap ·

2022/12/08

With the Quarterfinals upon us, a lot of people are going to make their predictions and bets. But, what we've realized is that knockout football can make absolutely ZERO sense sometimes. Nonetheless, we do our best to make sense of each of the Quarterfinal ties, who's likely to get to the Semifinals, and who could really win it all (hint: it might not be Brazil).

2022/12/08

Well, we needed a few days to process the US getting knocked out of the World Cup, but here come are unfiltered thoughts. On this episode, we go over the high-level of how these teams approached the knockout tie, our thoughts behind the details of the game itself, and the implications for the USMNT going forward.

Today we went a little long on the podcast talking about the USMNT's massive win over Iran as well as everything else going on in the group stages, so we split it into two episodes - Part 1 and Part 2! In this section of the pod, we go over the other results on the final matchday of the group stages in all but two groups, some shock results and confusing math, plus our favorites headed into the final matchday before the knockout rounds.

The World Cup group stages are in full flight with the USMNT having played 2 out of their guaranteed 3 games so far and a win-or-go-home scenario on the final match day for them! With so much happening in the last few days, we start off with the US and talk about each Group in the second half of this episode. We go over Argentina's bounce back, France's continued success, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Brazil, and much more!

2022/11/22

(Apologies for the audio quality in the first 5 minutes, blame spotty internet) On the first of many World Cup episodes, we go into detail around the first USMNT World Cup match in 8 years, a review of the opener which saw some...interesting decisions being taken. Additionally, we go over the other matches so far plus what to expect the rest of this week in the group stages. And, yes, Elyas did wake up at 5am to watch THAT Argentina game.

2022/11/08

With only one more matchday in Europe's Top 5 Leagues left before the World Cup preparations begin, we take a look at some maaaaaaajor games in the Premier League and a VERY exciting Seville Derby as our games of the weekend! We discuss what Chelsea need to do to compete at the highest level again, if Arsenal can continue their run of form post-World Cup, and what Liverpool's win means for both them and Spurs. Over in Spain, we try and unpack a ridiculous game with 3 red cards as well as Piqué's
