PawedCast Episode 147: Crew Rewind, Red Bulls Preview, Orlando Pride & More

Y’all ain’t gonna believe this, but we get to actually recap an Orlando City victory this week! The Lions hit two penalty kicks to win the 2018 home finale 2-1 over the Columbus Crew and we are here to discuss it and give you our unanimous Man of the Match selection. Please forgive us, but in our excitement we forgot to discuss Orlando’s 2-1 loss last Wednesday to the Sounders. Oh well.

We also discussed Justin Meram’s absence and the salaries were revealed for OCSC’s mid-season acquisitions.

We’re talking Orlando Pride as well, with the club giving out its season awards for 2018 and they were pretty much in line with our thinking. We also talked about Camila’s off-season plans in her native Brazil.

We answered our mailbag questions of the week and gave our key match-ups and score predictions for the Lions’ season finale against the New York Red Bulls on Sunday.

Here’s how show No. 147 went down:

0:12 - The Lions got a victory and we were so distracted by it that we completely spaced out on the fact that the team played twice since our last podcast. But hey, victory!

26:43 - Pride season awards skew heavily toward Marta, Ali Krieger, and Sydney Leroux, and deservedly so.

36:55 - The mailbag has questions about music, goalkeepers, and off-season transfer expectations.

54:44 - Key match-ups and score predictions for the Red Bulls this weekend. Hopefully Sacha scores a hat trick. (Spoiler: unlikely!)
