Welcome to Episode 16, Capital Punishment! With Filly and The Panda on their whirlwind media tour of New York and Indiana, it was up to The Scarf and Scarfette to hold down the fort. With a little technical difficulty, the next episode is FINALLY here, albeit a few days late. But… this week you’ll get not one, not two, but THREE (!) episodes of Defenders of the Banc!
Here in Episode 16, we recap the beatdown in DC on the 23rd anniversary of the very first MLS game. It was supposed to be a matchup of heavyweights, but it’s safe to say DC suffered an early TKO. Hear all about the incredible 4-0 victory!
In addition to the big win, hear Defenders break down the USL (United Soccer League) and their various affiliations with LAFC. Nine players with LAFC ties are currently playing professionally in USL’s top two divisions. We also make a quick check of LAFC news, we explore the beatdown of Belgium at the Banc by the USWNT, we touch on the Canadian Premier League (yes, it’s real, and a former LAFC player is in it!), we celebrate the release of season two’s Parley jersey, and wish a very happy birthday to LAFC’s own Mohamed El-Munir. Join Scarf and Scarfette on the latest episode of Defenders!
