Defenders of the Banc

Episode 200 – 200 Reasons to Celebrate

 

It’s Episode 200! 200 episodes of THE Most LAFC Podcast on Earth! 200 episodes of Filly, Scarf, and all the LAFC craziness you could ever want. 200. Wow. What a number. And it would mean nothing without YOU, the Millions… there to support us along the way. We’re hoping Episode 200 fits like your favorite baseball glove or t-shirt: Comfy in all the right places but still giving you the consistency and support you need when it counts! 

Here on 200, we trounce Dallas, 3-1, to bring us to the halfway point of the 2022 season. Moose gets the party started off an absolutely beautiful through ball from Cifu. That’s right! LAFC scored first! But… about 15 minutes later, the current USMNT darling, Jesus Ferreira, equalized off a beautiful free kick goal that kissed the underside of the crossbar as it went in. Jesus Ferreira looked more like he was warming up for the All Star Game Skills Competition than anything else. What a goal. 

Though we would head to the half level, Dolo did what Dolo does best, halftime adjustments. LAFC strings four passes together as Vela finds Chicho for the second match in a row to lead 2-1, and LAFC would never look back. A solid effort defensively from Dallas was outdone by an absolute lightning bolt of a shot from Mahala in the 85 to salt it away, and LAFC heads to the halfway point of the MLS season on top of the world. 

Also on 200, Chiellini ruins a suit, Eddie’s back, and Filly and Scarf reminisce about the first 200 episodes. This truly has been a wonderful journey, and we would be nothing without the support from all of you! Here’s to the next 200!
