Summary

To kick things off Alexi Lalas and David Mosse give a shout out to a couple FOX Soccer colleagues, Carli Lloyd announced she is expecting this November and Giorgio Chiellini as he joins the crew for Euros this summer. Over in Europe, the UCL semi finals begin. Vinicius Junior's opening goal was a sensational one for Real Madrid, and Dortmund secured a first leg win behind Niclas Fullkrug. Haji Wright also continues to shine in England with his 19th goal of the season. (7:21) The guys then break down the CONCACAF Champions Cup where Pachuca stamped their spot in the finals. MLS also continues with an Inter Miami and NYRB top of the table clash, and the Sounders look to stay hot against west coast rivals. Will we see Mexico star Chucky Lozano in San Diego next MLS season? (24:20) In #AskAlexi, Mosse and Alexi answer a pair of questions on Christian Pulisic’s best position, right wing or left wing, and where the USMNT would finish if they played in Euros. To wrap the pod, they discuss the announcement of the US Soccer Federation and Mexico Football Federation withdrawing their host bid for the 2027 Women’s World Cup.
