Hey, soccer fans! Nick has somewhat recovered from his night at the MLS Play-In Game where the Chicago Fire defeated Orlando City 3-1 to advance to the 1st round of the MLS Cup Playoffs. The Men in Red played a nearly perfect match, outworking, outplaying, and outcoaching their opposition. Brian Gutierrez opened the scoring, and Hugo Cuypers sealed the win with two goals of his own. But no one on the Fire had a poor or even mediocre match. This will surely give the Fire faithful a boost of confident, and maybe give Philadelphia Union fans some doubt.

Matt, Kyle and Trevor discuss Real Salt Lake's exit from the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs, the team's performance over the last two months, and why things have progressed as poorly as they have.

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse start in the UEFA Champions League, where Ricardo Pepi made instant impact — scoring and assisting off the bench as PSV dismantled Napoli 6–2. Would you start him over Folarin Balogun? Bayer Leverkusen suffered a 7–2 defeat against PSG without Malik Tillman, and Arsenal cruised 4–0 past Atlético Madrid in a tough outing without Johnny Cardoso. On Wednesday, Weston McKennie battled hard but couldn't stop Real Madrid's dominance ahead of the first El Clásico of the season. And finally, Tim Weah & top of the table Marseille fell to Sporting Lisbon. Back stateside, the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs kick off with a loaded best-of-three first round. We'll tell you who's hot, who's not, and who could lift the Cup. Plus, #AskAlexi returns with your fan questions including a heated plea for Christian Pulisic to NOT wear the armband for the USMNT.

It's playoff time in North America with the MLS Cup Playoffs and CPL Playoffs getting underway.

It was a wild weekend across Europe! AC Milan climb back to the top of Serie A as Rafael Leão breaks his drought against Fiorentina — but all eyes are on the club vs. country debate after news that Christian Pulisic will miss action until after the next international break with a hamstring injury. Meanwhile, Como stunned Juventus 2-0, with Weston McKennie coming off of the bench. We ask Stu Holden: Is McKennie really the best midfielder in USMNT history? In the Eredivisie, Ricardo Pepi makes his return for PSV, Folarin Balogun keeps scoring in Ligue 1, and Harry Kane puts on another masterclass in Germany — sparking the question: should he be in the “best in the world” conversation?
