FC Cincinnati Preview with Cincy Soccer Talk and More The Mane Land PawedCast

    • Soccer

One year ago, the Lions were second only to FC Cincinnati in the race for the Supporters Shield. Fast forward to 2024 and the Lions have struggled out of the gate, despite only losing once in their last five games, but even though Cincinnati jettisoned top goal scorer Brandon Vazquez, the southwest Ohio side is second in the Eastern Conference. Although Saturday's visitors haven't been scoring as many goals, they've also bulked up defensively and have been stingy against opposing attacks.
Joining us to help prep for FC Cincinnati is Coach Gough from Cincy Soccer Talk. Coach was kind enough to fill us in on how FCC is doing offensively and defensively, how the new faces are fitting in, and what the team is doing without Vazquez. Big thanks to our special guest for giving us the scoop on Orlando City's opponents on Saturday.
This week's mailbagbox asked us about scrambling the Orlando City starting lineup, OCB going up against college teams, non-craft beer, and more. Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag.
Finally, we turned our attention to Saturday's matchup and how we see it playing out. We presented our key matchups for the game and our final score predictions. We're not feeling particularly optimistic after last Saturday, especially when Orlando City will have to figure out a way through the towering defense of the visitors, most of which have played (or currently play) for the U.S. Men's National Team.
Be sure to rate and review our show wherever you get your podcasts. Remember, we'll read any five-star reviews we get on Apple Podcasts on the next show.
Here’s how No. 415 went down:
0:15 – Coach Gough joins us to give us the scoop on FC Cincinnati's 2024 season so far.
21:18 – Our mailbagbox has us changing everyone's positions and it's frankly hard to keep track of when doing it live.
43:12 – Our key matchups and score predictions for Saturday night against FCC under the lights.
