Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Atlanta United came back to level their match at Soldier Field on Saturday, forcing an own goal, but then conceded a late winner to lose in Chicago. Go back and listen to the conversations I had with Ronny Deila and Ronald Hernandez after the match, the frustration is felt by everyone at the moment and they've got to find a way to turn that around quickly as they're next on the pitch in Austin on Wednesday (with gameday high temps set for 106) and back home to face Philadelphia on Saturday.Minnesota dealt Miami their 4th loss in their last 5 games, and barely had the ball in doing so. Danny Musovski in rarefied air for Seattle with goals in five straight games for the Sounders, scoring in their 3-1 win at Houston. NY Red Bulls defeated LA Galaxy 7-0 Saturday night, the worst ever loss for the Galaxy in their 30-year history.Vancouver, after their comeback 2-2 draw against LAFC last night, leads the Supporters' Shield race in MLS while Atlanta is in the bottom five in the league standings. A Classic El Clásico as Barcelona defeated Real Madrid for the fourth time this season, the first time that's been done since 1983. Madrid scored twice in the first 15 minutes through Kylian Mbappe, whose hat trick was wasted, but Barcelona had taken a 3-2 lead 20 minutes after his second goal and then added a 4th before halftime. The second half saw Mbappe complete his hat trick, a number of controversial referee decisions, and Barcelona celebrate essentially winning the league title as they only need one more point in their remaining matches.The managerial carousel is spinning in Madrid, as we expected. Fabrizio Romano reporting this morning that the deal is done for Xabi Alonso to join Real Madrid, and it will happen in time for the FIFA Club World Cup this summer. It will be a three-year contract. The semifinals are set in Mexico's Clausura as Club America will face Cruz Azul and Tigres will face Toluca. Alex Zendejas scored both goals in Las Aguilas win to set up another Mexico City derby, he has to be part of the USMNT this summer as he's had another strong season for Club America. Crazy scenes at the end of the Nottingham Forest 2-2 draw with Leicester as confusion over a late substitution and injury led to sort-of owner Evangelos Marinakis going out on the field and yelling at manager Nuno Espirito Santo. Bad look, but jumping to say that Nuno should resign over it was also over the top. Inter has cut Napoli's lead in Serie A down to one point after winning in a thunderstorm at Torino while Napoli was held to a draw by Genoa in Naples. Plenty more in the Espresso video and audio forms including my thoughts on the whistles at Trent Alexander-Arnold in Liverpool, the dangers of fan-led pitch invasions in celebration, and the risks of pregame and postgame social media trash talk from clubs. More Espresso tomorrow on the SDH Network, presented by our friends at Oglethorpe University.

As we near the end of the 2024-25 international football season, there's been a hot stove of storylines firing from all corners of the globe. We start things off in the United States, where the Vancouver Whitecaps have continued a surprise dominant campaign by advancing to the finals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup over Inter Miami. In addition to Vancouver's success, we discuss the issues at Inter Miami, who have struggled to win major trophies with their star-studded roster. We then get into the national team setup, where former USMNT manager Bruce Arena made headlines with his comments about current boss Mauricio Pochettino, followed by the UEFA Champions League and Real Madrid's mercurial first season with Kylian Mbappe.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Atlanta United finished off a disappointing home stand with a 1-0 loss to New England on Saturday afternoon at the Benz. Atlanta was the better team on paper once again, but conceded a penalty and little else to the Revs. It was a frustrating day because Atlanta hit the crossbar, the post, and had two goals wiped away due to offside infractions. As I said on the Full Time Report, not going to get into the judgment calls that can be justified by the referee crew. We can disagree, but they can be justified in their interpretations. My issue is the lack of control at times and the lack of yellow cards for persistent infringement, which could have changed things late in the match. New England committed 10 fouls between the 40th and 60th minutes, most of them in the middle third in transition moments or Atlanta build-up play. One yellow card was shown. 20 fouls on the day for the Revs and two yellow cards shown. For better matches in MLS, referees need to use yellow cards for persistent infringement (after warnings of course to try to change the behavior). No one wants to watch one team who isn't really interested in playing much kick the other team repeatedly with limited repercussions.With that being said, Atlanta didn't convert on its chances again, made a defensive mistake again, and didn't take advantage of outplaying the opponent again. Mistakes by individuals have to be eliminated, production has to increase, and an emotional response is needed in games when they're getting away. The team is working hard, but sometimes there isn't that hard foul, or positive body language, or protecting teammates that can generate some momentum in the stands and on the field. It's something I hope to see grow in this group, a little bit of an edge and a little bit of nastiness when needed. Brian White scored 4 times for Vancouver as they demolished Austin 5-1, even with a mouse running onto the field at BC Place. Columbus and Miami remain unbeaten ahead of their showdown in Cleveland on Saturday. Portland is unbeaten in 5 after their 4-2 win in Kansas City. Atlanta United's U18's are off to an unbeaten start at the Generation adidas Cup in Florida, while the U16's need a win today to possibly reach the knockout round. Both teams play San Jose today in Bradenton.Mo Salah broke the Premier League record for goal contributions in a season as Liverpool defeated West Ham 2-1. Newcastle, without Eddie Howe who is in the hospital with an unspecified illness, won 4-1 over Manchester United to solidify their Champions League chase. Fulham is on the road at Bournemouth today, a win would put them 4 points back from the Champions League spots. Kylian Mbappe will be lucky to escape a long suspension after a horrific challenge that saw a red card in Real Madrid's 1-0 win over Alaves.Chelsea's women are still on course for a quadruple as they beat Liverpool to reach the FA Cup final. They'll face Manchester United, who were led by USWNT goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce's incredible double save against Manchester City. Plenty more in the video and audio forms of the Espresso, check out the video on YouTube or the audio wherever you get your SDH podcasts. More Espresso tomorrow on the SDH Network, presented by Oglethorpe University.

The FC crew react to Kylian Mbappe being sent off in Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Alaves and question why the superstar would put his teams' title hopes in jeopardy for such a rash challenge. The guys also break down Liverpool's win and criticize Chelsea after dropping points to relegation bound Ipswich Town at home.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Tragedy in Chile last night in the Copa Libertadores as two fans lost their lives in violence prior to the match between Colo Colo and Fortaleza from Brazil. Investigations are ongoing, but early reports say that two teenagers lost their lives when a fence collapsed onto them as another group was trying to break into the stadium without tickets. The police involvement in the deaths is also being investigated. As word began to make its way through the stadium prior to the second half, according to Chilean media reports, the supporters inside the stadium held a moment of silence for the deceased fans but then began to chant against the police. A retaining barrier between the bleachers and the field was broken and some fans began to run onto the field. The match was stopped, eventually Fortaleza players got to their locker room, and the referees suspended the match before officially abandoning it hours later. CONMEBOL could levy heavy fines to Colo Colo, declare the match a forfeit and 3-0 loss, and could even remove Colo Colo from the competition. The organization has to institute better security measures across its competitions and take a more proactive stance with its teams and organizations. More to come on this tragedy...News came out yesterday that Major League Soccer will continue further exploration of changing their competition calendar from a February start to an August one, but it won't begin until 2027 at the earliest. It seems inevitable for many reasons, but it's a little surprising that it wasn't ready to be approved for the 2026 season to start after a long World Cup break. Yes, you will have to figure out scheduling flows involving teams in Northern climates in the winter, but your championship match will be in better weather and a better time period in the sports calendar and most importantly, your transfer business will be better aligned with the rest of the world. It will happen, and the sooner the better for the league's continued growth in my opinion. Mo Salah has signed a new 2-year contract with Liverpool, ending a years-long saga about a new deal. Kylian Mbappe is pursuing legal cases against PSG for a reported $61 million he says he is still owed by the club. The club says they had a verbal agreement to exclude bonuses from Mbappe's contract in return for bringing him back into the club after he refused transfers in the summer of 2023 after he said he was going to play out his contract and leave on a free transfer. Ugly situation that needs to get sorted for all concerned. Spotlight on the amount of running Mbappe and his Real Madrid teammates have done in this season's Champions League. They are last out of the remaining 8 teams in miles run in the tournament this season and the three forwards (Mbappe, Vinicius, and Rodrygo) are first, second, and fourth in the fewest miles run in the tournament. Quality can overcome that, but Arsenal outran them by 13 kilometers in the first leg of the quarterfinal and it showed in the performance. More Espresso on Monday on the SDH Network, presented by Oglethorpe University.

James Olley, Rob Dawson and Mark Ogden are joined by Julien Laurens to discuss how PSG have improved since losing Kylian Mbappe. Later, Archie Rhind-Tutt joins from Germany to assess whether Harry Kane will break his trophy drought this season. Plus, the guys analyse Manchester United's striker search amid links to Liam Delap.

Today we welcome Nicolas Julia, founder of Sorare, the record breaking platform that blends fantasy sport with digital collectibles. This is a step beyond the fantasy football/F1/rugby you may already be a part of. It's an open market, providing the chance to show your skills and talent identification to buy, select and trade tangible assets in the form of player cards. They are reimagining sport for the digital age, combining NFT's, global partnerships, and strategic gameplay to create a fan-owned, athlete connected future of sports entertainment.  From signing partnerships with the Premier League, NBA, and over 350 teams to generating nearly half a billion dollars of translations on the platform, Sorare has pioneered a new era of fan engagement while empowering athletes with their own data and IP. Serena Williams, Gerard Pique, Kylian Mbappe; they're all backing the company to deliver on their objective of making every fan an owner or manager. But how did this bridge between digital fandom and the world's biggest sporting entities form?  Big numbers, big partners, big ambitions. Nico delivers the thesis of a company at the heart of the modern sports industry. In today's show we discuss: Building a Fantasy Sports Business What was the opportunity Nicolas and his partners identified when establishing Sorare? Born in the era of cryptocurrency and NFT's, how has Sorare been able to navigate this highly volatile landscape and become THE fantasy sports platform? What does the business model look like? From attracting players to the platform to signing global partnerships with major leagues. What has the hardest part of working with very traditional organisations been? How much education is required when demonstrating the value Sorare can bring to a league? Value of Athlete Partnerships Athletes are becoming more and more active in investment markets. How have Sorare leveraged the talent on their cap table to develop the brand and product? How did Nico encourage the likes of Gerard Piqué, Serena Williams, Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi to invest in the business?  Are agents a blocker to getting access to athletes when it comes to presenting ‘long term' business opportunities? Signing big brands and major rights deals is significantly aided by athlete participation; the story of how Serena Williams won Sorare the NBA contract. Difference Between US & European Markets There is a major difference between the evolution of US and European markets when it comes to fan engagement, technology adoption, and athlete investing models. How has this shown itself in the growth of Sorare? Did the approach to winning contracts in the US have to change from the football model implemented in Europe? How do Sorare identify and prioritise new markets? The NFL is one of the biggest sports leagues in the world. Is this a target area? How does the development of the US betting market impact Sorare, if at all? Orreco  https://www.orreco.com/ Scan.com https://uk.scan.com/

What a match yesterday between Liverpool and PSG, Luis Enrique's side advanced after penalties. The job he's done to rebuild the team from a superstar-heavy lineup to a group where the team is the star is incredible. They outran Liverpool over the 120 minutes, very few teams have been able to say that over the last decade, and the idea that PSG would do it a few years ago would have been unthinkable. Lamine Yamal is ridiculous, what he's doing at his age is borderline unprecedented, and his work in the first half sent Barcelona through past Benfica. The thing is, as good as he's been this year, Raphinha might be even better with 11 goals and 5 assists in the Champions League to go along with his 27 goals and 19 assists in all competitions. Inter and Bayern handled their business without any surprises, and Arsenal will join them today in the quarterfinals. Aston Villa will setup a matchup with PSG if they hold off Club Brugge, Villa will be at home with a 2 goal lead. Lille and Dortmund are 1-1 going into the second leg in France, I'm expecting Lille to continue surprising folks. Game of the day is definitely the Madrid Derbi as Atleti hosts Real Madrid, trailing 2-1. The hosts haven't lost a home knockout round matchup in the Champions League in 28 years and Kylian Mbappe is battling a muscle injury, although he's expected to start. Can Diego Simeone's side get past their cross-town rivals?Seattle and Cincinnati failed in their bids to advance in Concacaf Champions Cup to Cruz Azul and Tigres respectively. Cincinnati took the lead before conceding three times in an eight minute span in the second half. Columbus made LAFC sweat in their second leg, cutting the 3-0 deficit from the first game in LA to 3-2 at halftime, but Hugo Lloris was outstanding for the Black & Gold in the second half and they got a goal with the second-to-last touch of the game to advance 4-2 on aggregate. Vancouver needs a multiple-goal draw or a win over Monterrey tonight at Santos Laguna's stadium to advance, while the LA Galaxy host Herediano but trail 1-0 coming into the second leg. More topics in the Espresso include Manchester United, Alianza Lima, Foster Gillett, Manchester City women, and the USMNT.

Hello Rank Squad!It's time for Champions League Takeaway, your late night delivery following the action - following the second legs of the new 'Playoff Round' in the competition, pitting the teams who finished 9th to 24th in the league stage against each other to earn places in the Round of 16.Wednesday night saw the headline tie of the round - Real Madrid vs Manchester City - settled by a Kylian Mbappe masterclass, with the Frenchman scoring a brilliant hat-trick to put the game far beyond the reach of Pep Guardiola's men and eliminate a Pep side before the Round of 16 for the first time in his managerial career. We talk how far off it City were, and how with the No 9 firing, Real Madrid might well just be favourites once again. There's also a discussion of the most entertaining game of the evening - PSV's extra-time triumph over Juventus which made the Old Lady the third (of three) Italian sides knocked out in this playoff round - two to Dutch opponents, and the other from Belgium - it's a good time to be from the Low Countries! And we talk briefly about PSG's absolute demolition job of Stade Brestois, and Borussia Dortmund's very uneventful seeing off of Sporting CP. Then in Part Two we chat through Bayern's late Davies dagger that broke Celtic hearts (it's a cruel game, sometimes), as well as Milan and Atalanta's respective headlosses as they crashed out to Feyenoord and Club Brugge respectively, as well as an incredibly fun encounter which saw Benfica emerge victorious against AS Monaco. It's Ranks! And remember, if you'd like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?

Manchester City's Champions League hopes came to an end as a Kylian Mbappe hat-trick did the damage at the Bernabeu. The Frenchman took advantage of another lacklustre performance from the Premier League champions, as Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland remained unused substitutes. Meanwhile in the Premier League, Liverpool were held to a point at Villa Park in a superb game under the lights. Mo Salah was unplayable again, but the headlines have been stolen by Darwin Nunez, who missed an open goal with his first touch since coming on. His work rate was also questioned by manager Arne Slot, who seems to be growing frustrated with the Uruguayan striker.

It's time for The Truth!There's been a lot of noise around Kylian Mbappé this season, after his dream move to Real Madrid - mooted for so many years - was finally completed in the summer. But things haven't completely gone to plan for the man that many see as the best player in the world. Playing through the middle because Vinicius Jr. plays off his preferred left hand flank, it hasn't been the smoothest of transitions into Los Blancos for the France Captain, but recently things have taken a turn for the better. However, questions remain. Can Vini Jr. and Mbappé strike up an understanding that would surely take the world by storm? Will the Frenchman finally accept playing through the middle, after previously stating he didn't like it there? Were the early struggles just teething problems? And how do you get the 'Big Three' of Vini, Mbappé & Jude Bellingham into the same lineup and playing to all their strengths? The Truth is somewhere in the middle...
