FTF Ep. 50 - Red, Dead, No Redemption: Fire Lose in LA and Vancouver Preview

Hey, soccer fans! Tell me if you've heard this one before... Yes, the Fire lose again after missing early opportunities, making some boneheaded plays, mentally check out, then spend most of the match chasing the game and the opposing players. This time the Men in Red fell 3-0 to a Los Angeles Galaxy team not know for offense and not known for clean sheets. Tune in to hear how it all went down and how we can confidently say this was the "same ol' Fire." Stay tuned for the second half of the show where our host previews the Fire's next match, a mid-week home game against Western Conference opponent Vancouver Whitecaps. The 'Caps are coming off a big win against Cascadia rival Portland, and their offense is looking to keep its form in Solder Field. Will star strikers Ryan Gauld and Brian White keep up their great season? Will the Fire have the legs and the mental capacity to earn a point? Nick gives you his analysis, picks, and predictions. The show concludes with a listener question on substitution rules and strategies in Major League Soccer. Nick recaps the applicable MLS Competition Guidelines and gives his take on good and creative substitution strategies. How do you think the Fire should use their subs?
