International Soccer Preview by Soccerphiles Canada previews upcoming tournaments and qualifications in international soccer. We began podcasting in 2021 by previewing that year's Euro Cup (called Euro 2020) and we previewed all other tournaments that summer: Copa America 2021 and Gold Cup 2021. We then expanded our coverage to the final round of World Cup qualifying for CONCACAF and Asia (AFC). We have so far mostly focussed on the national team, providing an overview of the countries, their soccer history (with emphasis on their history in the tournament at hand and on their recent history) and other details like their record against the teams they face and their prospects. Down the road, we intend to also provide a deep dive into their players, something we tried for the first time recently. Our coverage of the final round of world cup qualifying for CONCACAF included a separate podcast on players. This still needs some development but will become a part of all future previews. We will almost complete our coverage of the globe by previewing the 2021 African Cup of Nations which begins in January 2022. We hope the podcast familiarizes soccer fans with the teams and players and thereby brings greater enjoyment to following the tournaments.
