ITC LIVE ✨ NWSL Matchweek 2 RECAP · Into the Channel ⚽️ A Podcast Primarily About Women's Football

0:02
OK, welcome to the channel podcast primarily about 1
0:06
football. I am your host Dino Suspicious
0:08
and as always I am joined by my Co host Mr. Grant Angle.
0:13
What is up man? I'm feeling pretty good, buddy,
0:15
you know, just getting ready, getting into the work week, but
0:20
ready to reflect on a great weekend of football as well.
0:24
Really good weekend at football. So we'll be back tomorrow.
0:27
Talk about what happened in Europe.
0:29
Quite a bit happened, but for now we're going to hit NWSL
0:32
match Week 2. A lot of interesting storylines.
0:36
I think it's funny as we go, our predictions, some of them look
0:40
great and others are just like some shocking stuff that I think
0:43
we'll get into. And then some other teams that I
0:46
think of, you know, maybe sputtered a little bit out of
0:49
the gate, but a lot to cover. Where do you want to get
0:52
started? Well, they didn't play in my
0:56
current location of Seattle, WA, but Seattle Rain FC played a
1:00
pretty interesting match in Cary, NC.
1:04
Final score Seattle Rain FC to North Carolina Courage One.
1:09
I wouldn't mind getting started there if if you're all right
1:12
with it. I'm ready, let's go Seattle, you
1:16
know, 1 foot in the play offs already.
1:17
So I mean perfectly fine place to get started.
1:21
Let's do it. If the season ended today, I
1:26
know everybody loves that game. Two matches.
1:28
Into the season. I mean, I just left this, I just
1:32
left this match with a couple questions.
1:34
Well, before I get to those questions, I, I would dare to
1:38
say as a guy who watched all 26 Seattle rain matches last
1:42
season, many of them from the press box at looming field in
1:46
Seattle, I don't think the attack ever looked that
1:51
threatening in maybe any match. I mean, what they had like the
1:55
three goal game against San Diego.
1:57
I think last year, maybe it was against LA or Angel City.
2:00
Pardon me, but I, I had just never last year remember kind of
2:05
looking at the attack and seeing how fluid it looked, seeing
2:08
players kind of being able to better anticipate where their
2:12
teammates would be. You saw it on on the Jess
2:14
Fishlock goal, just the the amount of passing that was
2:19
happening and just kind of the the general movement, the like
2:22
almost amoeba, like everybody's kind of moving in these
2:25
different directions, but they're all coordinated.
2:28
And I left the match wondering is that what the offense is
2:32
really going to look like this season?
2:34
Because if it does, then maybe our show prediction or maybe
2:38
some might say your prediction of the rain making the play
2:41
offs. No, that might that might come
2:43
true. You know, there's there's room
2:46
on the rain wagon. I don't see why we can't put
2:48
another couple couple ITC brethren on the on the old
2:51
bandwagon here. I mean, to me, I think that it
2:57
has to be somewhat of a Laura Harvey effect.
2:59
And I think shout out to the God Zach Lowe, who talked about this
3:03
from a from a basketball standpoint.
3:04
But good teams, good franchises, good organizations, even when
3:09
they're rebuilding it, it's a quick turn around.
3:13
It's sort of like a OK, you know, like this, this is sort of
3:16
like a season from hell a little bit.
3:18
Things got turned upside down. But I just sort of feel like,
3:21
you know, and Laura Harvey and you talked about this a ton last
3:24
year. You know, like she was out
3:26
looking for attacking talent. Like this clearly was a top
3:30
priority for her. And that is not just personnel,
3:33
but it's also personnel plus scheme.
3:36
And then I think there's even a third component, which is like
3:38
personnel plus scheme, plus scouting of maybe some of these
3:42
young players. We'll talk about this a little
3:43
bit, but I think the impact of the young players this season in
3:46
the NWSL has been immense. You know, you, you've got a
3:50
couple on your on your squad, I think that have that have
3:53
definitely shown out this year. I want I want to talk
3:55
specifically about Maddie Dalene, because that's somebody
3:58
that caught me a little bit by surprise.
4:00
I was like, OK, I'm not sure if you know, I don't know what what
4:04
do I need to know? How much do you know, like what
4:06
we could can we, can we fill in some gaps?
4:08
And I, I would love to kind of, you know, dive a little deeper
4:10
on this rain side. Well, I'll tell you the great
4:13
Susie Rantz when she was on this program, Susie Rantz of Sounder
4:17
at Heart. You should go to that website if
4:19
you the right of the Valkyries is like the the section, pardon
4:24
me, is the section for Rain FC coverage.
4:28
But Sounder at Heart also covers the Seattle Sounders as you
4:30
might expect. But yeah, Susie told told me on
4:34
the show, watch out for Maddie, darling.
4:36
She has great size. And I think Susie referenced her
4:39
speed. I didn't know she was this fast.
4:42
I mean, she's flying up and down the pitch.
4:45
Showed it in in the opener as well.
4:48
Definitely kind of made me write raise an eyebrow when she was in
4:51
the starting 11 in the season opener as well.
4:54
And I was like, OK, Laura Harvey very clearly trusts this rookie
4:58
right off the bat. And when I when I talked to her
5:00
in that post match after the the Gotham draw, she mentioned that
5:05
Dalene had a great camp, had a great pre season and then
5:09
referenced when she had hit a pass into the middle when
5:13
perhaps she should have taken a shot in that Gotham match.
5:16
I think Laura Harvey's exact quote was I told her after
5:19
you're going to have to shoot that one mate because nobody
5:22
else can run with you that fast. There was something very, it was
5:25
very close to that. But you know, I think she's got
5:28
to, she's got to be like 5-9 or five ten.
5:30
She looks like a full grown adult out there already.
5:36
Yeah, and I think the speed, well, actually, you know, you
5:39
sound a little bit parched, buddy.
5:40
Maybe we should you know. Let's go.
5:43
What am I doing? I got a frosty.
5:45
Earrings a little bit we'll still have to do here.
5:49
You know what? Cheers for Laura Harvey.
5:54
Cheers to Laura Harvey, and cheers to Sedak.
5:57
Thanks for thanks for tapping in with us, buddy.
5:58
Always good to see you. Yeah, I just think, you know,
6:02
she looks dangerous right off the top.
6:06
And yeah, she's just one of the many young players.
6:08
When you reference the young players who showed out for Rain
6:11
FC in this match against the North Carolina Courage, I have a
6:14
feeling where you might be going with our next topic.
6:18
Yeah, that that Killer Jordan bug that we talked about.
6:22
I think, you know, like on the on the telecast they were
6:24
talking about her defense, you know, her passing her you you
6:27
talked about her speed on the show, you know, that kind of
6:30
catching off guard. You must have been What was your
6:33
reaction to the goal? I mean, that was an absolute
6:36
stunner from a, you know, from still young player that I don't
6:41
think. I mean, I wasn't expecting.
6:43
I'm not sure if you were expecting.
6:44
I'm not sure if anyone was expecting something to that
6:47
degree. No, I did.
6:49
I didn't know she had that in her game.
6:52
I mean, you know, I've we've talked about it and we've had
6:55
some of our pals who watched some more of the youth system
6:58
talk to us about it. Like she's obviously in a plus
7:02
blue chip center back prospect like that goes without saying.
7:06
I think people talk about her already in the scope of she will
7:09
get national team attention as she progresses in her career.
7:12
But that's because of her her really advanced passing, her
7:16
advanced calmness that she has on the ball, her ability to kind
7:19
of reset. I had no idea.
7:22
And neither did our pals Mike Watts or Leanne Sanderson on the
7:25
broadcast because they're just kind of like they were like
7:27
talking like it's Doris. The yeah, like they're like mid
7:30
story as the ball dribbles out to Bug and she rips the shot.
7:34
And then they gave it the appropriate, you know, Watts
7:36
goes crazy. Leanne immediately, immediately
7:39
is like, that's one of the best goals I've seen in a long time.
7:42
Like, it's an absolute laser beam.
7:45
It was it was a stand up off the couch moment for me.
7:49
Absolutely, absolutely. And I think, you know, I talked
7:51
earlier about that injection of, of young talent, Darlene Adamus
7:56
on this team that we talked about Jordan Bug.
7:58
You look at the 20, I'm sorry, you look at the 34 players who
8:01
have scored a goal this season in NWSL, 14 of the 3422 years of
8:07
age or younger, that's an insane number.
8:10
I mean, that's more than 1/3 of the goals this season, including
8:15
Gia Corley, who has two plus an assist to lead the NBSL.
8:19
She came over from Hoffenheim, Bayern Munich prior to that,
8:22
Maggie Graham, midfielder from Duke as well with two goals.
8:25
But I mean, these names, Emery, Adamus, Elena Gomez, Jordan Bug,
8:29
Michelle Cooper, Kennedy Fuller, Riley Jackson, Jameis Joseph,
8:33
Carly Lima, McKenna Morris, Labia Moultrie, Elisa Thompson,
8:36
Rayland Turner, that's a pretty good collection of of 22 and
8:41
under young talent that's already scored a goal in this
8:44
young NBSL season. I mean, do you, I mean, is this
8:47
like a, a youth movement that, that we're seeing here or kind
8:51
of like what, what do we think is at play here?
8:54
Yeah, I mean, you got to think, I mean, obviously we're, we're
8:56
two matches in, but 14 out of 34, that's a, that's a pretty
9:00
significant percentage in even in the early seasons.
9:03
So, you know, I mean, I, I do think you, you have to wonder as
9:10
the season goes on, as the physical, as the physicality of
9:14
this league starts to take its toll.
9:17
I don't want to be a wet blanket here, but you know, it's early.
9:20
We got to see how young players hold up.
9:22
We see it across every professional sport in every
9:25
league in the world, that this kind of the training, the
9:30
schedule, the pressure, it all ends up taking a toll on young
9:32
players. But this certainly looks like a
9:35
great youth movement one year after an all time NWSL draft
9:41
too, when you think about Centenor, Bethune, Hutton and
9:45
all the great players in that draft as well.
9:47
So I mean, you know, health of the league wise looking pretty
9:50
good from a youth standpoint. Absolutely.
9:52
Yep. John, welcome to the party.
9:55
Just a couple minutes before we start talking some Orlando
9:58
Pride. So definitely happy to have you
10:00
on board with us. Phillip, you already know.
10:03
Oh, hell, let's go. Yep.
10:05
Glad Phillip was able to join us.
10:06
Well, yeah, And you know, it's not an all.
10:09
It's not an entire youth movement.
10:11
You look at that Seattle midfield, Jess Fishlock, angry
10:13
James Turner, GISO young, combined age 102 years old for
10:17
those 3. There we go.
10:20
Yeah. So it's not all, you know, it's
10:21
not all the young it's but great mix of experience and young
10:26
energy from Laura Harvey. And I just think they're playing
10:27
great, you know, defensive identities there, you know, 12
10:30
shots against the courage away at the courage.
10:33
I don't think that that's something that we're used to
10:34
seeing from from that rainside last year.
10:36
Five shots on target despite, you know, just 43% possession.
10:40
So I thought I thought they were really solid.
10:42
Claudia Dickey, really good game from her as well.
10:44
I mean, they definitely tested her and she held up.
10:48
Big win, big Rd. win for Seattle.
10:50
Not again. Not something that we're used to
10:51
saying on the show, But I don't know, you must be pumped.
10:53
And my playoff prediction, I don't know, feeling, feeling,
10:57
feeling real warm and toasty over here about that.
11:00
You should, buddy. I think it's gonna be very
11:03
interesting to monitor. Should we do just a couple a
11:06
couple quick seconds on North Carolina and maybe this is maybe
11:10
this is not the greatest sports podcast or sports radio talking
11:15
point. They're gonna be fine.
11:16
I'm just not gonna, I'm not gonna worry about North Carolina
11:20
two matches into the season. I, I think they're going to be
11:24
totally fine. We got to give him some time to
11:25
gel. We got to give Nahas and the
11:27
staff a little time to figure out how to move like you, you
11:30
put, you lose a great piece like Ghetto Lynn, and then you inject
11:34
an amazing piece like Jaden Shaw.
11:37
You also lose Narumi. So like they're, they're things
11:41
moving here that are different from that, that stout defense
11:44
and that possessive style we saw last year.
11:46
I'm not selling one share of my North Carolina Courage stock.
11:50
I think they're gonna be just fine.
11:52
I don't know that I agree with you, buddy.
11:54
I think I got AI got to offload a couple.
11:56
I got to offload a couple shots. I'm.
12:00
Showing this way. You know, I mean, you know, the
12:03
Catalin, she moves on obviously in the normie Mira, a huge loss
12:06
as well. I didn't like how it looked like
12:10
Carolina lost confidence in that one after giving up the goals.
12:14
You know, like they started out strong, tons of possession in
12:19
control of the match. And then they give you know,
12:22
they, they fall behind at home and, and I feel like they sort
12:25
of, I don't know, they kind of unraveled a little bit.
12:28
They looked a lot less potent offensively, definitely less in
12:33
control of the match. I I'm, I'm monitoring the
12:36
situation in North Carolina. So it's kind of like like
12:38
tracking the Hurricanes over here in the East Coast.
12:39
You know, I'm plotting it. I'm kind of seeing where things
12:42
are going, but I'm going to say it now.
12:45
I would not be shocked if this Courage side was deep, deep,
12:50
deep into the playoff battle, you know, once we get to the end
12:53
of season and and might might find themselves on the outside
12:56
looking in based on what we've seen so far.
12:58
That's bold. All right, we, you know, we, we
13:01
live by take integrity here. We, we keep track of each
13:04
other's predictions. We'll be we'll be watching this
13:07
one. It'll be interesting to see.
13:09
I mean, you get into those dog days of summer and then you got
13:11
to you have to chase North Carolina around while they're
13:15
playing that possessive style. I, I wonder if that will we'll
13:18
get some positive regression to the mean in terms of like their
13:21
playing style and how they can win matches.
13:23
But you know, you're, you're a big and you know, correct me if
13:28
I'm wrong here. I'm mischaracterizing, you know,
13:30
your general steez. But I, I do respect that you're
13:34
kind of big on how do you look in the face of adversity?
13:37
Like do you look like you're dejected after you give up a
13:40
goal or like do you look like you're lost after you score a
13:43
goal? And then everybody's head's nod
13:45
in it? Like I feel like you, you're
13:46
really intuitive on picking up those things.
13:48
So that's it's going to it makes me put my antenna up a little
13:52
bit. Yeah, we'll keep tracking it.
13:55
All right, let's let's let's head over to Central Florida,
13:58
John, definitely correct the the the frosty if you've got it over
14:00
there. Gotham nil, Orlando 2.
14:03
I I found it interesting. Gotham wins the XG battle 1.1 to
14:07
1.0. Further evidence that XG is, you
14:11
know, it's just in some ways just a figment of our
14:13
imagination, but Orlando looking unbeatable, as unbeatable as
14:19
they as they like to do. What are you?
14:21
What are you going to take away from this one?
14:25
We're I mean, eventually one of these shows will stop talking
14:28
about all of our pre season predictions, But I, I will say I
14:32
predicted this. All right, that's very OK.
14:34
I won't commit to it either. That's fine until people
14:36
overwhelmingly maybe tell us like, all right, we're we're
14:39
good. We got them.
14:40
We got them all memorized. But I picked the spirit to win
14:43
the shield and the current to win the NWSL championship and I
14:47
just walked away from this game and I said, you know, Orlando is
14:50
firmly in the mix. They're challenging for both
14:52
trophies. There's no doubt about about
14:54
that. But I did just leave this game
14:56
again, kind of almost backtracking from what I said
14:58
only two matches in. I left this game thinking I
15:02
can't believe I didn't fucking pick them to pick to win a
15:04
trophy. They're going to.
15:05
They're probably going to win a trophy.
15:07
I should have picked them to win at least one of the two.
15:09
Yeah, I I walked away the same because I picked them to win the
15:13
the championship, but not the shield.
15:14
I had the spirit to win the shield.
15:16
And when I'm watching this match, I'm just like, who's
15:18
going to even score on this team?
15:20
Like and and when I was watching it, I'm like, you know, Gotham
15:24
is a team that maybe it's not, it's not all full of vets, but
15:27
they do have veteran, they have a ton of experience, whether
15:31
it's like in some of the top leagues around the world, and
15:34
they have still players on that, on that side that have had
15:36
success in this league for that squad.
15:40
It's wild to watch a team try to turn it up, you know, and be
15:44
like, let's turn it up, let's turn it up.
15:46
You know, all right, we're down. OK, You know, own goal.
15:48
OK, that's OK, we'll turn it up. Yep.
15:51
All right, we unfortunate there's a penalty.
15:53
OK, now it's two. We're not out of it, you know,
15:55
we're home, but you know, we're still an experienced team and to
15:58
watch them really try and really push and really try.
16:01
I mean, like they outshot Orlando 15 to six in this one.
16:05
You know, they had eight shots in the second-half, three on
16:07
target in the second-half. They really were pushing as hard
16:10
as they could. And and it's sort of like the
16:13
big sister, you know, kind of like with with the hand on the
16:15
head, it's like you can't reach where I'm at.
16:17
Like it just felt like Gotham was a pass or two short on every
16:20
single possession. It's just like, what do you do?
16:23
What do you do against this team?
16:24
Even when Rafaela comes off at halftime, Corey Dyke comes in at
16:29
the outside back position, they still look like a monster
16:33
defensively. So it's like, Oh yeah, you could
16:35
make a halftime sub, take off a player of, of Hafaela's, like,
16:39
you know, stature and still just be locked down, you know, like,
16:43
like no relief for the opposing offense.
16:45
I mean, I I had that same exact feeling.
16:48
I'm like, why didn't I just not pick this team to win?
16:49
Not only win both, but just maybe go undefeated again, who
16:53
knows? I mean it's super on the board.
16:56
I mean your point about the defense is right.
16:59
They just force you into making difficult decisions.
17:01
They press you when you don't want to be pressed.
17:04
They just they they take away your first and 2nd passing
17:08
options. They might be also taking away
17:09
your third passing options. They make you make decisions
17:12
faster than you'd like to make decisions.
17:14
Like they are just so organized as a defense and then so many of
17:19
those players, once they RIP the ball off you, they already know
17:23
where their teammates are going to be in.
17:25
In that context of like, OK, now how do we get the ball forward?
17:29
But then they also are smart enough to say, I'm just going to
17:31
turn it around and we're not going forward after we take the
17:33
ball off you. It's time for a reset.
17:35
They're just as well coached and as smart of a team of players
17:40
that you're going to find in the league and the world, as has
17:43
been discussed multiple times on this podcast.
17:47
Absolutely. And I think Speaking of
17:49
predictions, you know, I spoke to Anna Morehouse in the pre
17:52
season, you know, I asked her about her goals and her goal.
17:55
One of her goals was to set or reset the clean sheet record of
17:59
what was it last year. 12 out of 26, she's the 6th of the way
18:03
there. 2 for two this season. Orlando get to give up a goal.
18:06
She's got 24 more cracks at it. I I think she's definitely get
18:10
that record. I think this was defenses
18:13
barring injury, barring injury, if they have those 567 players,
18:17
you know, to cycle through. We haven't even seen, you know,
18:19
Oyane Hernandez yet, you know, as part of the defense.
18:23
But if they stay healthy, she's getting that record and I think
18:27
they'll they'll be hovering in that mid teens in terms of goals
18:32
given up this season, but by the end of it.
18:35
So I I think that's definitely super live.
18:37
And I mean, another quick note here, this was an ITC victory
18:43
lap. You know, this this telecast,
18:46
Leanne Sanderson, Mike Watts, shout out to great friends of
18:49
the pod. You know, Corey Dyke comes in at
18:51
halftime, ITC Hall of Famer. We already know Barbara Banda
18:55
taking on another ITC Hall of Famer.
18:57
On the other side, Emily Sonnet. And all of it involves your boys
19:00
Orlando Pride. So I mean, the show I feel like
19:03
was woven all throughout that that telecast had a great time
19:07
watching it. Orlando gets the big one.
19:10
There you go. I think the only way it could
19:11
have been more of an ITC game is if it was Mike Watts and Leanne
19:16
calling the rain play the Pride. So I mean, obviously our
19:19
fingerprints are right over there and I think that's got to
19:22
be one of those fixtures. If we can get Mike Watts on the
19:25
broadcast for either one of those, that's when I'm going to
19:28
try to cash in that ticket of when I shamelessly asked him to
19:31
reference our podcast when a pass goes into the channel.
19:33
I mean, I'm definitely going to try to call that one in for one
19:36
of those. I've been listening for it.
19:41
I surely he's already forgotten it.
19:43
Gabby, he, he did tell me I have to remind him before before a
19:47
match if he's going to drop it in.
19:48
So I'll, I'll, I'll have to throw up the bat signal when I
19:53
when I think the time is. Right.
19:55
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
19:56
And shout out to John Chairman in here.
19:57
Hernandez is in Orlando. Hoping she gets better or hoping
20:01
she has her paperwork sorted. Pray her hands emoji.
20:05
John great for the show from loud and proud Orlando
20:08
definitely go check them out go subscribe while you Orlando
20:11
prideheads out there and last quick no Ellie Watt I'm having
20:16
trouble recognizing this player this season.
20:18
She's just doing a lot of cool stuff that I haven't seen
20:21
before. She's just like taking everybody
20:23
for these headers, tenacious defense, covering a lot more.
20:27
I mean, I I guess she always, I I guess he always struck me as a
20:30
fast player, but not necessarily a player that covered like all
20:33
of this ground like because she was just, you know, live
20:35
everywhere on the field. So I think she's been really
20:38
great. And Seb Hynes mentioned lot
20:41
specifically a couple times last year in the post game pressors,
20:44
you know, about. You could tell that that was a
20:47
player that he's a big time fan of, you know, even when she
20:49
wasn't quite having those performances last year.
20:52
I think this year she's absolutely balling.
20:54
Gives Orlando a really cool dimension to, you know, again,
20:58
keep teams off balance. Yeah, totally.
21:01
I mean, she, she gives like a lot of energy.
21:04
You know, she'll she'll Sprint forward, but then she'll Sprint
21:07
back on defense. And it just feels like I'm not.
21:09
I remember you mentioning like obviously Heinz is a fan of her
21:12
game. I, I, I would venture to guess
21:15
that Heinz also probably probably really likes she seems
21:19
to be a very popular figure amongst her team mates as well.
21:23
So it seems like she has a a little bit of those and some of
21:26
them are sports cliches. But it seems like she has a lot
21:30
of that support from her team mates as kind of like a just a,
21:33
a, an unspoken leader or maybe just a flat outspoken leader of
21:36
the squad as well. Yeah, absolutely.
21:39
I think the vibes are just so positive out there.
21:42
Really it's a real heartbreaker than I I'm leaving Orlando.
21:45
It's definitely one of the best things about Orlando the couple
21:47
years here. But switching gears to Gotham,
21:50
Jeff Kassoff on Blue Sky today posted about Jace, the
21:54
Brazilian. I don't know, not quite a
21:57
superstar, but All Star world class player, I'll say Jace's
22:02
move from Man United to Gotham, I think that's really going to
22:05
give them some added firepower that's needed.
22:08
But more importantly, we get Jace out of the wrong, the wrong
22:13
side of the tracks in Manchester.
22:15
I tweeted a couple weeks ago free Jace and I think my dreams
22:18
come true. I mean, she ends up in Gotham,
22:20
you know, we're, we're worse places to land.
22:22
But I'm definitely happy for that player.
22:24
Yeah, should be interesting to see how she fits in the
22:26
midfield. I totally agree.
22:29
There's clearly something going on at Manchester United to where
22:33
she wasn't getting the playing time.
22:34
I mean, I just, you know, obviously we, we look at a lot
22:38
of these professional managers are like, I don't know, they
22:40
clearly know more about football than us, unless we're totally
22:43
missing something. Seeing her on the field, I know
22:47
she's good enough to play for United.
22:49
She has to be, she has to be good enough to get like regular
22:51
minutes. So to see her come over to
22:53
Gotham, I'll be really interested to see how she fits
22:56
in over there. Yep, definitely looking forward
22:58
to that. She'll be able to link up with
23:02
Kevin Porchillo and kind of hang out.
23:04
Maybe she's got, she's got some some buddies there already.
23:07
Hopefully they're on good terms and I'm just assuming they're
23:10
let's shift gears though. This is the match I think we
23:13
were both probably the most excited about this weekend or at
23:16
least, you know, right up there. Washington Spirit, NIL, Kansas
23:21
City current 2 surprising scoreline.
23:25
A lot to talk about in this one. Where should we start?
23:31
I didn't expect Kansas City to take it to the Spirit the way
23:37
they did. I mean, it, it was competitive.
23:39
So like, you know, Spirit had 56% of the ball throughout the
23:43
game. It I think 2 nil.
23:46
It's obviously not a blow out, but I'm trying to let me just
23:50
Fact Check myself here live on the show.
23:53
Yeah, so I thought so. So they go into halftime
23:57
scoreless. That Lebanta PK make doesn't
23:59
come until the 56th minute. But this felt like one of those
24:03
matches where I would qualify it as a great win.
24:08
Not just because you beat a really good opponent, but you
24:11
did the thing where you go ahead one nil and then near the death
24:16
you extend it to two nil to like hit like slam the door shut.
24:20
The to me, just narratively, almost like mentally, there is
24:24
an extra feeling of satisfaction a club gets from doing that over
24:29
a good opponent. Yeah, absolutely.
24:32
I think because it's sort of like you always talk about that
24:35
second goal, like, you know, which way is that going to swing
24:37
it? And Kansas City, it was wild
24:41
because Washington has a couple of stats here that really kind
24:44
of blew me away, the juxtaposition, OK, passes in the
24:48
final third. The Washington Spirit lead that
24:52
category in this 168 to 45. So roughly roughly 3:00 to 2:00
24:58
right passes in the final third. But then when you look at
25:01
touches in the opposition box, it completely flips 26 to 13.
25:06
Kansas City current a 2A2 to one margin there.
25:10
So that means that Washington's kind of knocking it around, you
25:13
know, in the advanced midfield area, unable to like really
25:16
breakthrough. They were at a shot disadvantage
25:18
16 to 11. The spirit was and a shot on
25:21
target disadvantage six to three, even though they went in
25:23
possession as you mentioned. But I thought that was really
25:25
telling, you know, like they they've got the ball in good
25:28
areas, but much like Gotham against Orlando, not really able
25:32
to kind of push all the way forward.
25:34
Santos was dangerous. Obviously no Trinity Rodman
25:37
still waiting on Craig Bethune know how Hershelt in this one.
25:40
So you know, no Lily Sarr still waiting on her return.
25:43
So definitely, you know, understaffed short staffed in
25:47
this one against against KC, But shout out to KC.
25:49
They're on the road. They they, they kind of sat back
25:52
a little bit. You mentioned Vladko Nanofsky,
25:57
you know, in the coaching match up against Yona and what that
25:59
would look like. I mean, Vladko definitely got
26:01
the better of him in this one. They sat back, waited for their
26:03
chances and when they got him took full advantage and then
26:07
again, still had, you know, got more shots off on the road again
26:10
against a really good team, a really good defence.
26:14
They Kansas City current executed pretty much every bit
26:19
of shithousery that they could. They were trying to waste time.
26:23
They were clipping you, you know, clipping the opponent, you
26:27
know, the elbows up to use hockey terminology.
26:30
And then like some of those instances, Michelle Cooper and
26:34
you know, I, we don't accuse players of faking injuries on
26:40
this podcast, but also we all watch football.
26:43
We understand sometimes a player sits down.
26:46
It's like, Ooh, got a we got a cramp at a weird time.
26:48
Just so happened to be when the our opponent started to kind of
26:51
push the ball upfield after a turnover.
26:53
Weird how that happens. But you know, I I think you go
26:58
into that match thinking we we are pretty much on level terms
27:02
and then talent wise and there's no reason for Kansas City
27:05
current to believe they're not equal talent wise to Washington
27:08
spirit. But what if we throw in this
27:11
extra stuff? What if we get in their heads?
27:13
What if we kind of try to disrupt their timing, disrupt
27:15
the, you know, the very precise routes that you know, Gerald
27:18
does wants those players to run while they're trying to, you
27:20
know, and whether they're in build up play or in the final
27:23
third, kind of force them to knock the ball around like you
27:25
said. And I mean, you've you have been
27:29
spot on about Claire Hutton from early last season.
27:34
She had a couple moments in this match where she's just a she's a
27:39
star player man like she is. She is so smart and so clever on
27:46
the ball that I mean, she just adds an element.
27:49
And if you are Laci Santos, I thought she I thought she played
27:52
well for Washington spirit. But if you don't have like a a
27:58
super strong midfield, like obviously they're missing
28:00
Bethune and missing Hirschfeld in that midfield, you know,
28:04
Claire Hutton is gonna get some things done.
28:06
And she definitely did that in in this weekend's match.
28:09
Absolutely, yeah. And I think Claire Hutton's
28:13
still ascending at a crazy rapid pace and, like, so crisp her
28:18
game is. I think it's a player that you
28:20
like, trust, like, wildly enough, you know, like this,
28:23
this youth movement. This is the player in her second
28:25
year, so tremendous, tremendously exciting time for
28:29
the end of yourself for sure. I'm glad you mentioned the the
28:31
Shithazari 'cause I lump that in in into the intangibles
28:36
category. You know, like it's like, what
28:38
is what's the non football, non tactical, non schematic stuff
28:41
that that I think really matters.
28:43
And then I also lump that in with what I like to call the
28:45
toughness stats. You know, when you look at the
28:48
toughness stats in this one, fouls committed 14 to 9 in favor
28:52
of the current. So they were getting busy there.
28:54
Tackles 114 to 7 in favor of the current.
28:57
Yellow cards by favorite toughness stat of all three.
29:00
Nothing KC current mixing it up. Love to see that.
29:04
And then you get a great performance from that KC
29:06
defense. Ellie Wheeler, Kayla Sharples,
29:08
Ivana Cook, Izzy Rodriguez and cannot fail to mention Lorena
29:14
the Keeper. Man.
29:16
Getting it done three shots up, three shots down, just
29:21
completely was not going to get beaten today.
29:23
I think that Lorena signing is working out better than any of
29:27
us have expected. I think that's fair.
29:31
I know we were excited about it going in and Elmoth Schultz
29:34
played well for them last year. And so when they, when it was
29:38
announced that she was kind of, you know, heading out of the
29:41
club, we were like, oh, OK, what's the next move and
29:44
signing, you know, Brazilian keeper Lorena, we, I think we,
29:48
we knew that was a good idea, But that was, that was a Lorena
29:52
game. I probably could have mentioned
29:54
that closer to the top. I mean, she, it was those 3
29:58
great saves. And obviously like the mind
29:59
blowing one where she's like falling back, hits it with her
30:02
right hand and then has the presence of mind to push it away
30:04
with her left hand right next to the right, next to the post.
30:07
I mean, it's just phenomenal work by her.
30:09
She was going out, she was catching crosses and corner
30:12
kicks just strong, just going like Randy Moss, just going up
30:16
there two hands high, pointed, knocking people over on their
30:20
way up and and coming down. I mean, like I, I know we use
30:24
this term, but I had in my notes, I think it was after like
30:29
her second or third grade save. I just said it's a Lorena game.
30:33
And you know, if you have one of those at Washington Spirit and
30:37
you create kind of like the six point swing against one of the
30:40
teams you're going to challenge for the shield.
30:41
It's absolutely massive. It it's so massive.
30:44
I mean, this is one of the matches where if this match is
30:48
match week 23 or 24, like it it looms if you're Kansas City,
30:53
like, oh God, we still got to go to that one.
30:54
That was going to be that was going to be the toughest 1.
30:56
I think that on the horizon. And I and I said that Lorraine a
30:59
bit in a little bit of a weird way, not to say that we had low
31:02
expectations or medium. I had high expectations and
31:04
she's even exceeding that from here.
31:06
I think she's going to keep them in games and earn them points
31:10
that they dropped last year. Like, you know, when it when it
31:13
really got tough and you know, we know there are there are
31:16
issues at goalkeeper last year. I think those seem to just be
31:19
way, way, way in the rearview mirror.
31:22
So we'll we'll definitely keep tracking these two teams.
31:24
I don't think anything changed too much in terms of like my
31:28
power ranking top three. I think those three teams,
31:31
Orlando, KC, Washington are still up in that mix.
31:37
And the last thing that we talked about in the preview, the
31:39
paper, rock, scissors nature of these match ups.
31:41
I, I continue to think, and you were on it.
31:43
I think you're predicting this in the final.
31:45
KC is a bad match up for the Spirit.
31:47
And then I do think that Orlando has a tougher time with the
31:51
Spirit than they do with the current, you know, So I think
31:54
there's a lot of kind of machinations, and we'll be
31:56
interested to see who draws whom when we get to the playoffs
31:59
here. Yeah, totally agree.
32:04
Little live producing here on the show and I'm always terrible
32:08
about this and I realize that I've been that I am typically
32:11
the one who does this. I think we're 30 minutes in.
32:13
What do you say we speed round these next few matches?
32:18
I love it. Let's do it.
32:20
OK? I talked about some surprises at
32:24
the top, the San Diego wave 3 three goals at home.
32:29
They take all three points versus Utah Royals three to two
32:32
big time win. They won the XG battle lot to
32:36
talk about here. I I think the one thing that we
32:39
have to hit Gia Corley. What do we do about this?
32:43
There's there's some Delphine Cascarino, Kenza Dali French
32:46
Connection vibes, Eunice Adoval he's coming over from arsenal.
32:50
There's a lot of European, you know, infusion here to kind of
32:54
like raise the excitement level around the San Diego side and
32:57
kind of like, you know, maybe scrub out some, some, some, some
33:01
bad history from last season. What do you see happening in San
33:03
Diego? Cascarino is just playing like a
33:08
superstar, and that's obviously no surprise to anybody who's
33:10
seen her play the last several years.
33:13
She looked absolutely unbelievable.
33:15
You're dead on that. Kenza Dolly and Gia Corley
33:17
looked great with her. Maria Sanchez was the
33:20
beneficiary of that as well. They that's quite an injection
33:26
of talents. I'm you know, I'm going to wait
33:30
to see, you know, how the team gets on with eight of all as the
33:34
season progresses. But I mean, hard to argue with
33:40
that result against Utah. But on the flip side, you know,
33:44
Utah, I I like the scrappiness from them.
33:47
You know, it you never you never want to fall down to nil,
33:50
obviously, but the fact that they were able to to fight back
33:54
in it, I think yeah, on the did my opinion change meter.
33:58
I think I'm still holding firm with Utah.
34:00
I'm still bullish on Utah and my opinion on the wave is is
34:05
starting to move a little bit because the wave and you pointed
34:09
out last last week they do they just have an awful lot of good
34:12
players you. Do man, I mean, we talked about
34:15
McCaskill. I mean, check the check out the
34:17
scoring Sanchez from Gia Corley, where that play was insane.
34:21
You know, just the the the skating up the end line.
34:23
Like I mean, it, it was unbelievable.
34:25
It defied physics for sure. Then Adriana Adriana Lyon scores
34:30
assists from Delfine Cascarino. Love to see that Gia Corley
34:33
scores the third one. So and Kenzo Dali was super
34:37
dangerous, got really close on a couple and and was the primary,
34:41
I think, corner taker. And then on the Utah side, I
34:43
totally agree with you. I mean, It's A Knockout scores
34:47
assists from Ali Sentnor. That's exciting.
34:49
The Zornosa free kick crazy. I think these are two playoff
34:52
teams. I think, I think, you know, like
34:55
I, I think I'm ready to say this Waveside definitely feels like
34:59
one of the the 8 best teams in this league.
35:02
So yeah, I might have to reshuffle.
35:04
I don't know what we'll do. We'll do like a week four week
35:05
5, you know, reshuffling. I, I, you know, take integrity.
35:08
We'll that that that's for a different show.
35:10
Whatever. Fair enough.
35:13
OK, it's a running we, we, we. We watch, we learn and, you
35:17
know, make some, make some, make some adjustments.
35:19
That's true. Nothing wrong with taking in new
35:21
information and and changing your opinions based on that new
35:24
information. That's.
35:25
It's a healthy habitat. Love it, appreciate the cosine.
35:28
OK Bay FC2 racing Louisville nil.
35:31
Little bit of a disappointment. Disappointing outing from
35:35
Louisville. The XG battle was close, 1.2 for
35:37
Bay, 1.0 for racing and the stats were I think pretty close
35:41
to Louisville. Managed more shots Bay one more
35:44
shot on target, slight edge of possession 55 to 45 and then we
35:49
got another Oh my God. I mean, if Jordan bug, hey, I'm
35:53
I'm going to have I I don't I think I'll live my whole life
35:55
not really being able to garner, you know, a staunch opinion on
36:00
which goal was better on this day.
36:02
Jordan bug over Carly Lima for Bay FC.
36:05
Those were two. I mean I don't want to say old
36:08
timers would be all seasoners. For sure.
36:11
Yeah. I mean, the fact that Lima
36:13
starts her right, I know she doesn't pick up the ball until,
36:16
you know, a few yards outside of the 18, but she started that
36:19
Sprint at the her defensive 6 yard box and then just takes the
36:24
ball all the way up the field. Breathtaking goal from her, you
36:29
know, I mean, she's 21 years old.
36:31
To your point earlier you mentioned to her amongst all
36:33
those young players raised in Morgan Hill, CA, which is about
36:36
a 30 minute drive from PayPal Park.
36:40
So she's one of their own. And I, I love to see that like
36:43
in this league, you know, kind of translating over from
36:46
European football. So, you know, I, I was, I was
36:50
the purchaser of or the buyer, I don't know.
36:53
I don't know if purchaser is a word, but I purchased plenty of
36:56
Bay FC stock ahead of the season.
36:59
I predicted I predicted them to finish third in the table.
37:03
And what do you know, if the season ended today, that
37:06
prediction would be spot on. And as we know, how the table
37:11
looks after the second match week of the season is almost
37:14
always how it looks at the end of the season.
37:16
I mean, that's that goes without saying.
37:18
So yeah, I'm going to separate my shoulder, patting myself on
37:21
the back. That cement is just taking shape
37:24
right here. I love it.
37:26
I I, I felt watching that Bay of seaside.
37:28
I mean, I think they're so exciting.
37:30
Taylor Huff too, I think has been really good as a as a first
37:32
year player. Kundanagi, your MVP pick.
37:35
How about that passing her distribution in the final third.
37:38
I mean, she she clearly is like, I'm going to add this to my game
37:41
and I'm going to work it out in the field.
37:43
I'm just going to keep trying to do this.
37:46
Quick shout to Philip here. Any thoughts on the Rodman to
37:49
Europe talk? I think that's happening.
37:52
I I think that's happening. It might be a year or two
37:54
before, but that's that's in the cards.
37:56
Lindsay to the new Denver club. I think less so.
38:00
I see that I don't know unless she's from Denver and I'm
38:02
missing it. She is, yeah.
38:03
She's from Colorado. OK, so then that that could be
38:08
something, but I don't know, man.
38:09
She's at Lyon, they're they're playing they're heading to the
38:12
Champs league final where semifinals pretty much year in
38:15
year out. That would be a tough situation
38:17
to leave as well, but who knows? I know our, you know, personal
38:21
lives take us to and fro that that's something that happens as
38:26
we get older for sure, but we keep it moving.
38:29
Real quick. I, I yeah, I think you're
38:31
totally right. Full cosign Rodman to Europe
38:34
will happen eventually. I think it would be a little
38:36
strange if she didn't explore what football looks like in
38:39
those other countries. You know, kind of look at some
38:41
different infrastructure. Obviously Michelle Kang, Yona
38:44
Geraldes, they run, I mean, they're running a top notch
38:47
program in Washington, DC, But it would be a little strange
38:50
range for Rodman, you know, in her early 20s, because she was
38:54
asked about this in a recent interview and she said, yeah, of
38:57
course, like I'll or I don't, I don't want to misquote her.
38:59
She said something to the effect of she will eventually, you
39:03
know, go over overseas, which I, I think it makes total sense for
39:06
her as a complete, as much of a complete footballer as she
39:10
already is. She'd probably want to see what
39:13
that looks like. She would look good for your Las
39:17
Blancas. I just want, let me just throw
39:19
that out there. I think that would be an
39:21
interesting piece. You play Kaiseto on the left,
39:24
you play Rodman on the right. Let's play some fucking
39:27
football. I don't know.
39:30
Something. Yeah, sure.
39:33
If she wants to live in London is very nice.
39:36
Perhaps she would want to play for your Gunners.
39:39
I I mean, you know, I don't know why we couldn't make that work.
39:42
It'd be exciting. Great nightlife, great
39:44
happenings there. All right, let's skip ahead
39:48
here. Where are we at?
39:49
Where we at? Where we at?
39:49
OK, BFC. They're making the playoffs
39:52
racing Louisville. I don't know, keep an eye on
39:54
them. Chicago 1 Houston Dash 2.
39:59
This this was a fun one. Like I, I don't know the dash
40:02
continue to, I don't know, court my attention.
40:08
Yeah. I mean, you know, you mentioned
40:10
Jamice Joseph earlier. I mean, she ripped the ball
40:13
right off of Paige Nielsen. Bad moment for Nielsen, but you
40:19
got to love that Nielsen was able to kind of get the
40:21
equalizer like a couple moments later.
40:25
Yeah, I, I mean, I think, I think we, there's nothing that
40:29
should really change our opinions on these teams.
40:31
I think Houston is going to, obviously they're not finishing
40:34
dead last in the table for the second year in a row.
40:36
I think that's off the board. I think they they're going to be
40:39
in that maybe challenge for the playoffs or maybe by like week
40:42
22, they're not so much challenging for the playoffs
40:45
anymore, but they're kind of feeling good and feeling like
40:47
they're moving in the right direction.
40:48
And I mean your prediction on Chicago, unless something big
40:53
changes here and something with Mallory Swanson's status
40:57
changes, we might be looking at a team who could potentially
41:01
take Houston's place at the bottom of the table from last
41:05
year. Yeah, certainly feels like where
41:07
things are trending, you know, season end today, Houston 6th
41:11
place, firmly in the playoffs, they're supposed to be feeling
41:14
good. And Evelina Dulian, who we
41:17
mentioned to on the show, most definitely an assist in the ITC
41:20
record book on this day, she was, I mean, she's just a really
41:24
good player, really good, exciting young player,
41:27
definitely in that 22 and underage band.
41:29
She's yet to score, but she's going to create a lot of
41:34
positive offense. Wouldn't be surprised if she
41:36
gets on the score sheet in the next few weeks here.
41:39
And I think the assists will come as well.
41:41
I don't know, excited about Houston.
41:43
We'll keep an eye on them. And then the last match up of
41:45
this match, Week 2, Portland 1, Angel City one Portland gets
41:52
gets a big win and I think they continue to, I'm not a big win.
41:55
Portland gets a home draw and they continue to look like a
41:58
team that has talent missing some pieces.
42:02
But it's going to be a tough out, I think, week in, week out.
42:06
One of those draws that feels a little bit like a win even
42:09
though it's at home. You know, they Portland goes
42:11
down it within the 1st 10 minutes.
42:14
They're able to fight back and then get the equalizer about 1/2
42:17
hour into the match. They're going to be scrappy.
42:21
I continue to wonder and you know, eventually somebody will
42:24
tell me to shut up about this point.
42:26
I mean, you know, Sophie Wilson is a two time NWSLMVP.
42:36
You know, you lose her from your squad, it's it's hard to know
42:41
where all the goals are going to come from.
42:44
I know I've said that in the I said it in the preview, I said
42:47
it after match week one. It's just you.
42:50
How can you replace one of the at worst seven best number nines
42:56
in the world? And maybe, you know, I might
42:57
even be being real conservative, but saying 7 like, you know, you
43:02
know, I think some people would consider her and not even just a
43:04
#9 but one of the best forwards in the world.
43:06
So I'm, I still am keeping a cautious eye on those Portland
43:10
thorns. I, I don't know how this one's
43:12
going to go with that with, with losing Sophie Wilson.
43:15
Yeah, it's going to be tough. I think the trying to patch it
43:18
together. Dana Castiano's Rayland, Rayland
43:21
Turner pretty much fall in this one.
43:23
Five shots, 3 on target gets the goal.
43:25
Hino Sugita as well. Super dangerous, super smart,
43:28
really good game. But to your point, not a lot of
43:31
places to go. You know, after you make those
43:33
moves and create that space and create those lanes, you need
43:37
somebody to kind of dump it off to you.
43:38
I think Sam Coffee, in that mix as well, had a really good game.
43:41
But again, just not a lot of options.
43:45
The star of this one for sure for me was Angela Anderson, who
43:49
played really, really well. Huge saves.
43:52
What does she have? Yeah, she saved 8 of Portland's
43:54
nine shots on target, including one at the death that would have
44:00
cost him a point. So that was definitely my MVP in
44:03
this one. Shout out to Angelina Anderson.
44:06
All right, man, anything else you want to hit before we get
44:08
out? Of here, I think that's about
44:10
it. I think you're right.
44:11
They they lose the game if Anderson doesn't play that way
44:14
in goal. Outstanding performance from her
44:17
and I and I did like, even though, you know, I talk about
44:19
Portland's lack of kind of goal scoring options at this point,
44:25
the game did feel pretty open at the end.
44:28
So I, I, I liked seeing that is that there was kind of some up
44:31
and down play and neither team was playing for the draw at the
44:36
end. And I know we were joking about
44:38
this with the 411 draws last week.
44:41
I'll say it again. One one draw in this match.
44:43
Probably a fair result. Yeah, I agree with you there.
44:49
Yeah, definitely wide open, 30 shots total amongst the two
44:52
teams. So they were definitely getting
44:53
busy. OK, quick look ahead. 8
44:55
Champions League club still alive, 4 available spots in the
44:58
semis. Those get decided this week.
45:01
Hammered. Where's my sharpie?
45:03
So be getting my sharpie. We'll be live tomorrow in the
45:06
evening Eastern Time, time TBD roughly 11:00 PM-ish Eastern to
45:10
preview this week's UEFA Women's Champions League quarterfinal.
45:14
Second leg action. Lyon host Bayern, Arsenal host
45:18
Real Madrid, Barcelona welcome Wolfsburg and Chelsea are going
45:23
to try to overcome a two goal deficit when they host
45:26
Manchester City and those eight teams fighting for those four
45:29
spots in the semis. Continued coverage of the
45:31
Champions League football in Europe, continued coverage of
45:33
the NWSL, continued coverage of all these international
45:37
competitions where the US, where the US women's national team
45:39
stacks up in all of that, you already know where to find us.
45:42
Your boys are out here. Anything else you want to hit
45:44
before we got here? No that's totally fair.
45:49
I I would be remiss and I realize this is an NWSL episode.
45:53
Very excited for the Champions League heads up to you.
45:56
I got a bunch of meetings and stuff the next couple days.
45:59
It is. I am going to be living in the
46:00
no spoiler zone. I'll have to watch the Champions
46:02
League games well after work. But I would be remiss if I did
46:05
not mention the mighty SK Bron notching A3 nil victory over
46:11
Rosenborg in match week one of the top Syrian Brian Battalion
46:15
is starting to grow a little bit on Blue Sky.
46:18
So like a lot of our pals from the old, the old website where
46:21
we used to interact with folks, now moving over to Blue Sky.
46:24
So we're starting starting to get that going for all of our
46:27
American pals. SK Braun magical run in the UEFA
46:31
Women's Champions League last year on a beautiful Bergen,
46:34
Norway, which I found out I I saw somebody tweeting this.
46:37
I don't know how scientific it was, but they or I saw them blue
46:40
skying it that it rains about 200 days a year in Bergen.
46:44
And I was just like, no wonder I love this place so much.
46:46
I mean, I live in Seattle. No wonder I I became an instant
46:50
fan, instant supporter of of bronze.
46:53
So we'll be keeping our eye out, looking out for all the
46:55
questionable streaming options to watch those those matches
46:59
until somebody smartens up and buys the rights to top Syrian
47:02
over here in the US. Yeah, let's go make that make
47:05
that purchase happen. You already know where to find
47:07
you know your pre game show. Your boys are here.
47:09
We're ready, locked and loaded. Let's go.
47:11
Grant's already got the the 200 days a year rain gear in his
47:14
closet. He's he's stacked.
