Ali Riley & Kelley O’Hara are BACK after a week off with our BIGGEST NWSL ICYMI yet! We’ll dig into a wild week of games that had us seeing 5s all over the place, including Utah silencing the Portland crowd after Sophia Wilson’s early goal with a 5-1 win over the Thorns. Gotham is dealing with some significant losses as Sonnett heads to SEI and Esther back in Spain, but we don’t think it’ll keep the Bats down.

Then Kelley digs into the biggest news of the week as we break down FIFA controversial announcement and subsequent walk back of their funding plan.

Plus Ali gets us caught up on her trip to Ireland.

This episode is presented by Amazon Prime.
