ETR goes coast to coast (well, kind of) from a cup final to an All-Star Game in a jam-packed show. Andrew Wiebe sits down with Calen Carr in Philadelphia to digest what was a wild Gold Cup 2015 and break down El Tri’s triumph. They also look forward to the high stakes Confederations Cup playoff between USA and Mexico on October 9th in California, and what the future holds for this Jamaica squad.
In the second segment we head out west to Denver, Colorado, the center of the US soccer world for the next week. Greg Lalas has a chat with MLS legend and Chipotle MLS Homegrown head coach Landon Donovan to talk coaching. Greg also attempts to stump Landon on some MLS coaching trivia, and he gets the inside scoop on his pregame speech.
In the final segment Arielle Castillo joins Greg to talk about all the AT&T All-Star Game festivities and of course the match itself. Can Tottenham handle the travel, altitude, and weather to hang with this group of All-Stars? And is a skills competition instead of a full match in the cards for the future? Plus a review of the Capital Cites and Aloe Blacc concerts and the “Overall” MVP of the week.
