We Came to Win
What can we say? Soccer… is life. Just in time for the 2022 World Cup, soccer fans and hosts Matt Nelson and Steve Ceruti share some of their favorite soccer episodes from Gimlet, Parcast and Spotify. Like how a scrappy US team leveled up to compete with Mexico and create a fierce rivalry. Or how the Spanish women's team fought for equal opportunities at the 2015 World Cup. And the story of the 1974 Zaire team who saw soccer as a way to climb out from under a dictator's rule. New episodes of We Came to Win publish each Tuesday.

A unique insight on the beautiful game

I don’t write reviews usually but I felt compelled to as I feel that many of the one star reviews are unnecessary. There are sooo many English football podcasts, so I’m delighted that an American network have made a ‘this American life’ for football podcast! I’m three episodes in and it’s utterly compelling. Thanks for making this podcast.
Good so far

I very much enjoyed the Maradona episode- a nice overview of the story focusing on 3 key matches. I hope the other episodes are as good- I liked hearing a long ‘story’ rather than my usual football podcasts which are chats in format.

Hearing these passionate stories, some known, some not, told from a non European perspective is fascinating.
Going down hill

Started really well. But as new episodes are been released, they are also loosing quality and the stories are not that interesting anymore (a part from the Hope episode). The topic are on the fringes of the football world. Almost getting off topic.
