Summary
This is the Debrief.
One soccer game, each week.
Debriefed by USWNT legend and 2x World Cup Champion Tobin Heath
This week's match: The UEFA Women’s Champions League Final, Lyon v. Barcelona
—
"The Debrief is a concept that comes from the U.S. Women’s National Team.
A sports psychologist came in before the 2019 World Cup to figure out the marginal gains - what could we do that no other team was going to do to win that World Cup?
We’d go on the field for 90-plus minutes. And no matter what happened - win, lose, or tie - we’d come back to the locker room, sit down, and debrief.
What did that look like? Everybody just getting out all of their energy on the past game. Their feelings. Their emotions. Holding each other accountable. Whether it was the good, bad, or ugly it was a time to expel all of our feeling about the game. And then we’d wipe our hands and say ‘onto the next game.’
Doing it collectively as a team was a game changer. It completely unlocked our ability to move through tournaments in a positive way.
So we took this concept and put it into this show. I’m going to watch one game every week, and then I’m going to just expel all of my feelings about the game and together we’ll Debrief.”

| 0:29.1 | if it was the Men's Champions League final or the Women's Champions League final. The |
| 0:33.1 | atmosphere was absolutely electric. The players on the field were electric, the fans |
| 0:40.4 | were electric, this was one for the ages and it just shows how far you know |
| 0:46.2 | football all of global football is coming. Probably the only game that you can't |
| 0:51.0 | debrief is a final because you don't play finals you win finals nobody |
| 0:56.3 | remembers how a team plays they only remember if you won but you know this is my |
| 1:01.6 | debrief so we're gonna debrief in anyway and if there were ever two |
| 1:05.8 | teams that you should debrief a final about it's two teams that have been there over and over |
| 1:10.4 | again. One standout thing about this final is both coaches are departing. |
| 1:18.2 | This is their final games with their club teams. |
| 1:21.8 | Both have been extremely successful. One coach |
| 1:24.0 | departing for the US, the Barcelona coach, and Sonia departing for Chelsea. So these |
| 1:29.2 | are two coaches that came into this match, this being their final match. |
| 1:33.8 | So for both, obviously winning |
| 1:36.4 | would have been a major stamp to the end of their time |
| 1:40.4 | with these clubs. This matchup was a chess match. Both teams knowing each other very well, |
