An ad-free episode! Joe, Jordan, and Taylor spend almost an hour breaking down the USA's penalty-shootout win over the Netherlands in the quarterfinals of the Olympics.

Show notes

Taylor, Ryan, Graham, and Joe gather around their respective microphones to answer your lovely listener questions! From fictional club vs. national team games to what referees are looking for when they check players’ cleats, there was plenty to chat about. You can find the full list of questions that we answered down below:

1) What countries have a club team in their domestic league that would beat their national team?

2) Do teams have a strategy behind their kickoffs?

3)If we there was a combined North and South American tournament, would people around the world care more than they do about the Gold Cup or the Copa America? And would that combined tournament help the USMNT?

4) When substitutes are checking in, why does the fourth official check the bottom of their cleats?

5) Watching the Euros, it seemed like Paul Pogba and Harry Maguire play better for France and England than they do for Manchester United. Why is that?

6) Why was Jaden Sancho included in Gareth Southgate’s England squad at Euro 2020?
