    202. The good, the bad and the meh (LIVE!)

    Matt, David and Corey go live to break down a wild week of three matches: the best of times, the worst of times, and the meh of times. It starts with a rainy comeback win over FC Dallas, where Idan Toklomati scored twice, including a stoppage-time winner, to erase a 2-0 deficit. Then comes a rough midweek loss at Columbus, where the Crew tied a franchise record with 33 shots and only Kristijan Kahlina’s 11 saves kept it from getting uglier. Charlotte rebounds with a gutsy 2-2 draw at red-hot Philadelphia, ending the Union’s eight-game win streak as Toklomati breaks the club’s single-season goal record. The guys dig into Dean Smith’s constant lineup rotation, why Charlotte keeps giving up goals from the top of the box, and how to beat a team that presses. They also cover the Abdoulaye Doucouré signing, what the final four games could mean for playoff seeding, and your questions on Kahlina, Toklomati’s future, and more, before the show wanders into guitar tunings and dream TV shoutouts.---Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season, get access to the Secret Show and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.Patreon:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.patreon.com/MintCitySoccerShow

    201. Missing pieces, missing points | Charlotte FC 0 – Chicago Fire 1

    Corey and David welcome special guest host Donnie aka Fat Bird to break down a rough 0-1 home loss to Chicago Fire that ends Charlotte's eight-game unbeaten streak. Missing several key attackers to international duty, the Crown never found their footing, gave up a corner-kick goal and lost Tim Ream to a stoppage-time red card. Also discussed: Pep Biel playing out wide – is that the best option?The disallowed Charlotte goal.The referee.Archie Goodwin's season-ending injury.Where the playoff race stands with Chicago now just a point back.--- Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season, get access to the Secret Show and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.

    200. Backflips and near disasters | Charlotte FC 2-1 DC United

    Matt and Corey break down a wild, maybe lucky 2-1 win at DC United that extends Charlotte's unbeaten run to eight games. We dig into how close this game really was (spoiler: very), a controversial non-call on a ball that may have crossed the line, Kristijan Kahlina's heroic 10-save performance, and why this "sketchy" win still counts the same as a dominant one heading into a massive home match against Chicago. --- Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season, get access to the Secret Show and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.

    199. Queen City chaos | Charlotte FC 3 – FC Cincinnati 3

    Matt and Corey recap a back-and-forth 3-3 draw at FC Cincinnati that keeps Charlotte FC's unbeaten run alive at seven games. They dig into the team's recurring defensive lapses — including the stoppage-time corner that cost Charlotte the win — Liel Abada's blistering form, and what's ahead with massive matches against DC United and Chicago on the horizon. Also discussed: Pep Biel's first-half penalty and Allan Saint-Maximin's game-breaking influence.Idan Toklomati's go-ahead header and Rodolfo Aloko's ridiculous assist.Where the playoff race stands with DC United and Chicago up next.Listener questions on Abada's DP spot — plus a fun movie-themed question to close it out.--- Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.

    198. Westwood sees red | CLTFC gets it done on a rainy night in Montreal

    Charlotte FC grabbed four points in a chaotic week, starting with a scoreless draw at home against Houston Dynamo marred by Ashley Westwood's stunning red card. Without its captain, the Crown pulled off a gutsy 2-1 comeback win at CF Montréal in the rain Wednesday night. Matt, David and Corey talk Westwood's double suspension, Allan Saint-Maximin's growing impact (and Abada's, too), the team's one-on-one finishing woes, and we answer your questions heading into Saturday's clash with FC Cincinnati. --- Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season, get access to the Secret Show and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.

    197. Atlanta Public Library | Charlotte FC 2 – Atlanta United 0

David and Corey are here to break down the match, which keeps the Crown right in the hunt for fourth (and maybe even third!) in the East. Among other things, they discussed: Why the score could have – and maybe should have – been even more lopsided.Allan Saint-Maximin's impact every time he touches the ball.Liel Abada's recent performance – is it as good as it seems?Is this the starting midfield we need to stick with?And they answered your listener questions.Charlotte FC, we wear the crown.

    196. Mentality and tactics | Breaking down Charlotte FC's win over D.C. United and draw at Toronto FC

    Let's be honest here: We should be talking about two wins. Charlotte FC dispatched D.C. United 3-1 Saturday night but blew a 3-1 lead – with a man advantage! – to draw Toronto 3-3 the Wednesday prior. Matt and Corey are here to break it all down – with screenshots – and to see just what went wrong in Canada. We also answer your listener questions, including whether the Toronto draw was a fireable offense at Dean. And we marvel at the impact Allan Saint-Maximin has already had in his short time with the Crown. --- Want to get into our Discord to discuss all the matches this season, get access to the Secret Show and ask us questions for upcoming episodes? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for just a few bucks to get access to that and more.

    Just kidding ... David and Corey are here, too. The whole crew is back and has a whole lot to talk about this week. From a full recap of Leagues Cup to a breakdown of Saturday's win over the Crew to a deep discussion about the PSL and season ticket changes from the past couple of weeks – there's a lot going on.
