Summary

The Cooligans are back for our first episode after the Women's World Cup and there's A LOT to talk about in the footballing world! The Premier League is off to a flying start and Liverpool are looking dangerous! Christian and Alexis dive into the Reds' miraculous ten-man victory over Newcastle and ask if the match will be a turning point in Darwin Nunez's career on Merseyside. The guys also discuss the horrible situation surrounding the Spanish Football Federation while wondering how it's possible that Luis Rubiales is still employed after forcibly kissing a player during the World Cup Final celebrations. The conversation also somehow leads us to the question, "Would your mom go on a hunger strike for you?", so you definitely won't want to miss that. We end the episode by recapping Leo Messi's first MLS victory over the weekend. Let us know what you think in the comments!
