The MLS season is back underway (after a 27 day break!), so the boys are back with another game recap here on Episode 38! Unfortunately, the second half of the season is off to a bit of an auspicious start, as LAFC falls 1-0 in Colorado.
Filly and The Scarf break down the breakdown near Denver, including Pablo Sisniega and Josh Perez making their first MLS starts, friend-of-the-pod Phillip Ejimadu making his first appearance in an MLS 18, the return (to the bench) of Dejan Jakovic, and another appearance of Fito Zelaya! We also get to play Name that Perez not once, but twice! Unfortunately, none of that resulted in a goal as LAFC lost an MLS match for only the second time this season.
There’s so much more to the episode than just the recap! We’re back with another This Day in LAFC History, celebrating the anniversary of the team’s first ever hat trick. Our WAIT, WHAT?! moment of the podcast has nothing to do with soccer, but we are definitely pretty excited about it! Filly throws out a few fantastic fast alliterations while The Scarf breaks down the crazy schedule ahead for our boys in Black and Gold. All that and more is yours to hear (viewers?) on this episode of Defenders of the Banc!
