PawedCast Episode 124: Chris Schuler Interview, RSL Recap, Pride, and More

Orlando City just keeps on falling behind early and rallying to win and the Lions made it six straight with their victory over Real Salt Lake on Sunday. Despite having to play yet another center back pairing, the Cardiac Cats hung around long enough to eventually finish three chances in an 18-minute window to seize control. We’re here to break down that match and give you our game MVP picks. We’re also talking about the Orlando Pride picking up a big three points on the road at Chicago against the Red Stars.

Then Chris Schuler drops in to talk about his first MLS match in nearly a year, playing against his old RSL teammates. Chris was great to talk to and his positivity comes shining through in the interview.

We also answer our listener questions in our Ask The Mane Land PawedCast mailbag, and give you our key match-ups and score predictions for Orlando City’s match Sunday at home against first-place Atlanta United.

0:12- Six wins in a row. Sure, it wasn’t a murderer’s row of opponents but in a league of parity like MLS, that’s still pretty special. Plus, the Pride kick off a brutal part of the schedule in style with their first ever win against Chicago.

39:06- Chris Schuler stops by and talks about how he stays positive while nursing injuries, what it was like to get on the pitch against his old mates, playing between Lamine Sané and Mohamed El-Munir, and more.
