Back to EpisodesEpisode 256 - Can A Bounce Back Match End 0-0? Oh, and Messi!
Description
Fresh off their CCL Final defeat at the hands (feet?) of Leon, LAFC found themselves back in the saddle at BMO, taking on Eastern Conference foe Atlanta United. How would LAFC respond? Well...
LAFC got off to a bit of a slow start, as Atlanta took it to the defending champs for the first 15-18 minutes of the match. But as the match wore on, it became clear that LAFC was back on the attack and that their formidable offense was clicking once again. There was only one problem: Brad Guzan. A Herculean effort by Guzan coupled with a baffling pair of misses by Carlos Vela from the penalty spot left the home fans wanting as LAFC battled to a 0-0 draw.
Also on this episode, say it with us: Lionel Messi is coming to MLS. Lionel-freaking-Messi is coming to MLS. And that wasn't even our "Wait, What?!" moment of the pod! Chicho heads to RSL, Mahala will play for his national team, and Olly goes on walkabout! Enjoy 256, because the next two will both be about... Houston.
