  • Berhalter Ball(less)
    Jul 9 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    The Banter is back! The Mecca lads dive into the latest soccer action, covering both local and international matches. STL City’s impressive 2-0 victory over San Jose. We discuss the impact of the new manager, the renewed team spirit, and the entertaining match despite San Jose’s struggles.

    Next, we dissect STL City’s 4-1 loss to Colorado. The frustration is palpable as we eagerly await July 18th. We analyze the team’s depth, tactics, and the leggy performance—questioning where they go from here.

    But that’s not all! We address the USMNT meltdown in their 1-0 defeat against Uruguay. The call for Berhalter’s departure echoes loudly, and we explore the team’s weak mentality.

    Switching gears to Euro 2024, we talk about Portugal’s surprising exit after the Round of 16. Even Ronaldo couldn’t save them! Spain’s victory over Germany impresses us, while the Netherlands’ electric comeback against Turkey leaves us in awe.

    Lastly, we discuss England’s minimalistic approach to advancing through each match. Are they playing it safe or just doing the absolute least?

    Tune in for lively discussions, expert analysis, and passionate soccer banter. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or a casual observer, this podcast has something for everyone!
