Summary
Taylor and Joe break down the United States’ 4-0 win over the Dominican Republic in Olympic Qualifying. Why was the first half so stagnant? What was the U.S. trying to do in possession with their rotated starting lineup? What did Jason Kreis change tactically heading into the second half? Taylor and Joe tackle those questions, look ahead to the rest of this tournament, and touch on the senior team’s roster updates for their March friendlies.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, |
| 0:02.0 | Hello, everybody and welcome to the Total Soccer show. |
| 0:25.2 | My name is Taylor Rockwell. |
| 0:26.4 | And with me today is a hopeful Olympian. |
| 0:29.5 | It's Mr. Joe Lowry. |
| 0:30.7 | Hello, Joe. |
| 0:31.2 | I'm assuming you still have Olympic aspirations. |
| 0:33.5 | Oh, of course. |
| 0:34.2 | Yeah, table tennis is going to be my sport. |
| 0:35.8 | And this is going to be my opportunity to get there. It really is. I like that. I picture you as being pretty good at table tennis. Is that actually your sport of choice? It's not my sport of choice, but I think if – I thought about this before. If I were to make it to the Olympics at any one thing, like what would it be – it certainly wouldn't be any Winter Olympic sport out here in Arizona. We don't have much chance to practice those. And as far as summer |
| 0:59.2 | Olympics go, man, I'm not much of a track threat or a swimmer. So I think table tennis is my |
| 1:05.9 | biggest opportunity. All right. Well, for Joe, it could be table tennis. I like that you go the official name and not ping pong. Well done, Joe. For the U.S. and for Jason Christ, it could still be soccer. We could still get a men's team at the Olympics. We're going to talk a little bit about the USA's victory over the Dominican Republic in Olympic qualifying later on. But first, we're going to start with the U.S. men's senior team. We do have a friendly this week. We do have additional roster updates. Joe, we've got lots of people coming and going and then one player coming back. What's the latest that you have? Let's kind of go back and forth on some of this news. Yeah, so U.S. soccer really hit us with a one-two punch here. So at first, |
| 1:44.7 | I woke up one morning, and it was Tyler Adams, Nico Joaquini, and Timothy Way out having to |
| 1:49.7 | withdraw from this upcoming senior national team camp preparing these guys for games against Jamaica |
| 1:54.5 | Northern Ireland. Adams, Joaquini, and Way, I had to withdraw due to quarantine regulations |
| 1:58.9 | in their areas. Very understandable. |
| 2:01.4 | And so the U.S. soccer added in a couple of players. I added in Christian Capis. Cappy. Capis? Not really sure which one we're going on that one. Either one. Okay. They added in Christian C. They added in Christian C. And they also added in Jordan C. Bacchu to kind of make up the numbers there. So that all makes sense, right? |
| 1:58.1 | And then a couple days later, I believe it was a couple days later, |
| 2:00.8 | they hit us with a little turn. see by you to kind of make up the numbers there so that all makes sense right and then a couple |
| 2:18.2 | days later i believe it was a couple days later they hit us with a little a little turn updated |
| 2:22.3 | quarantine regulations allow for nicholas joaquini to come back to camp so to actually be |
| 2:27.0 | readmitted to this training camp and it also allows for additional travel for georraine |
