Alexi Lalas’ State of the Union Podcast

Shownotes Transcript

Alexi and Mosse open the show with the scary moment in EURO 2020 that saw Denmark’s Christian Eriksen suffer a cardiac arrest on the field, Patrick Schrick’s amazing goal, and break down performances from Belgium, Italy, England, and Spain (11:03). The guys then talk Copa America, Messi’s and Neymar’s performances, the gap between Brazil and Argentina, Tite, Eduardo Vargas international play over club, and Colombia’s hopes (28:26). They discuss USWNT’s 4-0 win over Jamaica, the road to the Olympics, and if the roster should include Carly Lloyd (39:03). In #AskAlexi, fans ask the guys about their journey in the sports media business, playing soccer for fun, and the best PK taker and stoppers (54:19). Finally, Alexi caps the show with his “One for the Road,” where he embraces Jamie Vardy’s newest investment in US Soccer with the Rochester Rhinos (1:13:27).
