2025/05/13

FC Cincinnati put in a performance this weekend that may have been what was needed to right the ship. With goals by Evander and Valenzuela on assists by Engel and Evander, the offensive partnerships looked promising, enough so that a Brandon Vasquez penalty couldn't even spoil the party. What changes were made to the line up? How did those moves impact the tactics and flow of the game? Will we see more of this from Cincinnati? We'll answer those questions and more in this episode of Cincinnati

Do you remember 5-0 at Austin FC in February of 2022? That crushing loss that started the Pat Noonan era at FC Cincinnati? Oh, we all remember. Both teams made the playoffs in 2022, but since then, the Orange & Blue and Los Verdes have inhabited different sides of the coin. While Noonan's boys have managed to stay high, Austin FC has exchanged head coaches after subpar seasons. The greener side of things? Brandon Vazquez has been given one of the keys to the attack atop Austin's revamped offense. So

The 5 game winning streak for the Orange and Blue came to an end Sunday afternoon at Citi Field in a 1-0 loss to New York City FC. Though it was only one match, with more than half of the season still ahead, fans are split on whether or not there is cause for concern with the team's development. Tune in to episode 417 of Cincinnati Soccer Talk, as Brian, Coach, Justin and Jose, break down the match against NYCFC, look ahead at a flurry of matches in May and offer their thoughts on whether or not

The rivalries in New York have been distinct between the two MLS branches in the Big Apple. However, FC Cincinnati has taken a few bites out of the core before as well. We've already covered the bile between Cincinnati and the Red Bulls, and this week we take on the bluer side of the 5 Boroughs. Last season, it ended a bit sour with New York City FC marching into TQL Stadium and winning the rubber match to knock the Orange & Blue out of the playoffs. While Cincinnati brought in a ton of big-money

While it may not have been a statement win, Kevin Denkey certainly made a statement scoring a brace by way of a bicycle kick to the top corner.

The Peter Vermes era has come to an end in the KCK. Sporting Kansas City now has to seek a new identity for the first time in 16 years. The new coach bounce was pretty big last week in San Jose, but is there a future under interim leadership? This is no longer the team led by an experienced goalkeeper between the posts. We invited Jimmy and Daniel from the No Other Pod podcast to discuss this brave new world for SKC. Now that the old guard has left, who pilots the offense? What changes are coming

Despite the absence of Yuya Kubo and Obi Nwobodo, FC Cincinnati continue to find ways to win games. This time they did it in the Windy City on a brace by Evander in his return to the starting XI, and third from striker, Kevin Denkey. Though in the end it was only a one goal differential, the Orange and Blue showed some encouraging signs of what's to come as their attacking partnerships continue to develop.

With Gregg Berhalter's return to the MLS ranks as head coach, the Chicago Fire have returned to the front page. However, that just means a team FC Cincinnati beat in the 2017 U.S. Open Cup is now helmed by the coach of a team FC Cincinnati beat in the 2017 U.S. Open Cup. It's an interesting bit of information. However, Chicago has also fortified their roster with bigger offensive weapons. Could a certain midfielder from Manchester City follow soon after? Can the defense solidify and turn draws into

Join Brian, José, Nathan, and newcomer, Jacob for the game breakdown, player analysis, and a preview of what's to come later this month for the Orange and Blue.

The cherry blossoms are gone at the nation's capital, but hardly forgotten. The memories of D.C. United's bad loss to San Jose also have not faded from the District. However, FC Cincinnati fans can attest to the fact that bad losses could be followed by great wins. The two teams clash at Audi Field this weekend, so we invited José Umaña and Mario Amaya (no relation to Frankie) from The Bad Hombres FC Podcast to talk about how head coach Troy Lesesne is directing traffic.

As the rain fell in Cincinnati and five of FCC's regular starters not even available for the match, there was little hope of coming away with 3 points. But thanks to a heads up play by Pavel Bucha and a sneaky run from Sergios Santos, Cincinnati found the breakthrough they needed. In episode 413 of Cincinnati Soccer Talk, Brian, Coach, Nathan and Boston break down the win against the Revs, discuss the validity of recent transfer rumors and share their thoughts on FCC's progress so far this season.

Both FC Cincinnati and New England Revolution rode a set piece and a late penalty kick to capture 2-1 victories last week. Both teams needed wins to flip momentum in their seasons. However, while the Orange & Blue used a scalpel to refine their roster in the offseason, the Revs opted for a machete. Head coach Caleb Porter has almost flipped the full squad, but results have been scant to start the season. We asked Thomas from Revolution Recap about the changes in the offseason and the confidence the

Even with a much more dynamic offensive performance than they've shown in recent weeks, the Orange and Blue looked to be playing for a point late in this week's match against Nashville SC. But thanks to the sharp eyes of referee, Drew Fischer, FCC was awarded a penalty that put them ahead in the 92nd minute and eventually gave them all three points in the Music City. In episode 412 of Cincinnati Soccer Talk, Jason, Coach, Justin and Brian recap the match, shout out some stand out performances, and

It should be labeled a "derby" by all definitions. The distance between the Music City and Queen City remains quite drivable. However, the average FC Cincinnati fan and average Nashville SC fan probably wouldn't admit that the other is a rival. There's still no solid point of contention between both squads. The trend in both squads to start the season may indicate a much closer rivalry in 2025. While the Orange & Blue have started lukewarm, the "Boys in Gold" to the south are on a hot streak. Before

2025/03/25

With both teams missing a significant amount starters to international duty, injury or suspension, this match up looked to be less than ideal. Though the final result came in as a 2-2 draw, there were some bright spots for the Orange and Blue. Nick Hagglund made his first start since his injury. Evander got on the ball in dangerous spots and scored a brace. And Brad Smith made his debut by bringing some pace and new energy down the left flank.

As much as it appears the sky is falling for FC Cincinnati, that comes from intense pressure and high expectations. The Orange & Blue's next opponents, Atlanta United, are also under the microscope from a rough first month after a massive offseason. It doesn't help that both squads are depleted from injury and international duties.

The Orange and Blue traveled to North Carolina this past Saturday to face a very good Charlotte FC team and unfortunately, they came home empty handed. The offensive fire power has stalled. The back line looks leaky. And depth continues to be an issue with injuries, a red card, and international duty. Fans are beginning to ask some questions. But are they justified or just a bunch of knee-jerk overreactions? Join Brian, Coach, Cliff and Bill for episode 410 of Cincinnati Soccer as they recap the

For three years, fans of FC Cincinnati and Charlotte FC have disputed which is the true "Queen City". However, that may be where the differences end. Head-to-head results have not resolved anything—both teams have two wins over the other, and both have retooled their attacks and fortified their defenses in order to challenge the beasts of the East. We know of the big addition of Wilfried Zaha atop the attack, but how else has head coach Dean Smith polished the Crown? Can the defense replicate their
