In late 2020, something unusual happens: Jessica McDonald and her USWNT teammates lose—this time in court, as the players' lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation suffers a major setback. Yet, with a new president of U.S. Soccer on their side, the groundwork is laid for a breakthrough, including equal payments for the men's and women's teams. At the same time, the National Women's Soccer League signs a collective bargaining agreement with its own players, as veterans like McDonald help set the league — and women's soccer in America — on a path toward a more equitable, even more successful future.

Orlando City got smoked in Montreal like the meat they sell at the delis there. The Lions were never really in the 4-1 road loss, even when they cut the 2-0 deficit in half on Joao Moutinho's goal. The side was missing much more than center back Robin Jansson. It was lacking any kind of connectivity from back to front. As a result, the Lions attempted only two shots in the match — an even more dismal offensive output than in the home loss to New York. We break things down a bit and select our Man of the Match. We were much more pleased with Tuesday's result — a 2-1 home win over the Philadelphia Union in U.S. Open Cup action. The Lions had a lot more ability to break lines and shuttle the ball forward with Junior Urso, Andres Perea, and Alexandre Pato keeping Facundo Torres and Ercan Kara from getting too isolated. It wasn't a perfect outing. Many mistakes were made. However, it was a step in the right direction and hopefully one upon which Oscar Pareja can build. We selected our Man of the Match for the U.S. Open Cup win as well, and we were unanimous again. Two new Lions joined the team this week but only one will play in 2022. Jake Mulraney provides much-needed coverage on the wing, while future star Gaston Gonzalez will have to wait until 2023 to show us what he can do because of his unfortunate knee injury. The Orlando Pride traveled west and brought back Amanda Cromwell's first NWSL victory from Sunday's 1-0 road win at Angel City FC. Sydney Leroux's goal was just about enough and the Pride were fortunate not to pay for several misses that could have put the game out of reach before halftime. Orlando was easily the better side for the first half hour but things got a bit dicey over the last hour. When needed, Erin McLeod came up big. It's an important building block for the Pride. OCB was off for the second straight week. This week's mailbag asked about movies I haven't seen yet, how to rank the trophies from various MLS competitions, and who the Lions should want to play in the next round of the Open Cup. If there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the next show, just ask by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. And we closed the show by giving our key match-ups and score predictions for Saturday's return to Canada as Orlando City visits Toronto FC. Stay safe and enjoy the show! Here's how No. 294 went down: 0:15 - Orlando City had mixed results, bombing badly in MLS play and then performing well to advance in the Open Cup. 39:13 - The Pride were much better in the second week of the regular season against Angel City. 58:57 - The mailbag beckons and we have predictions for Saturday's match in Toronto.

We follow that with the unfortunate news of our bro Miles Robinson becoming the 3rd Atlanta player in a month to tear his Achilles, leaving not just the Home Team short for the season, but the USMNT now have to prep for the World Cup without one of their starting CBs. We talk about what could possibly be causing this rash of injuries in Atlanta and where does it leave the Nats going into Qatar with so few games to prepare and adjust.

As listeners heard in Part 9 of Payback, the role of athletes acting as advocates has never been more prevalent—or more polarizing. That's particularly true for women athletes of color. In this extended interview, Alex Andrejev speaks with Dr. Leeja Carter, an associate professor of exercise psychology at Temple University, about the intersection of racism, sexism and classism in sport; historical and contemporary representations of Black women's “strength;” and culturally sensitive health and physical activity approaches for women of color. New episodes coming each Tuesday, through May 17. To continue supporting journalism like this, visit charlotteobserver.com/payback or newsobserver.com/payback . Payback is hosted by Alex Andrejev. It's produced by Kata Stevens, Casey Toth, Julia Wall, and executive producer Davin Coburn. The executive producer for iHeartRadio is Sean Titone.

AY! WE BACK! Courtney & André hopped on the mics once again and had a LOT to cover. We start with a very kind review (please leave yours bestie thaaaaank yooou) before moving on to some quick shoutouts before getting to the real real. We start by wrapping up the UWCL semifinal round in which Wolfsburg beat Barcelona but the Spanish juggernauts moved to the final with a 5-2 aggregate win. Then we talk about the two-legged banger that was Lyon vs. PSG, which Lyon won 5-3 on aggregate. We give our predictions for the UWCL Final (Barcelona v. Lyon, in Turin, Italy, Saturday, May 21, @ 1pm ET), then talk about the slight possibility for the end of the D1 Arkema season to get funky. After, we turn our attention stateside to get into the NWSL Sippy Cup, starting with the first half of the Challenge Cup Final (which was good), then discuss the second half (which wasn't). We explain how the match devolved into an avoidable mess of the NWSL's own making and break down the issues that led to a deeply uncomfortable second half (get well soon Kerolin and Jordan Baggett). We also review the Sippy Cup Awards, including Debinha winning MVP and who we think should've made the All Tournament Team. Finally, André takes you through the absolute banger matchups in NWSL Week 3/2.5/2.38(?) including a Friday the 13th Cascadia Rivalry, Gotham versus North Carolina (don't miss Courtney & André's discussion about NJ/NY), and Christen Press coming to Washington! We then roll into Heated & Hyped where Courtney drags ESPN FC's Twitter account and André is in his feelings about Kevin Durant joining Gotham as a minority owner.

In early 2019, heated internal negotiations explode into public view as 28 USWNT players, including Jessica McDonald, file a landmark lawsuit against U.S. Soccer for “institutionalized gender discrimination.” In that lawsuit, the players argue they play more games and win more often than the U.S. men's team, yet still receive less pay from the federation; U.S. Soccer counters that the men's games drives more revenue for the federation. And as McDonald and the national team advance to the finals of the 2019 World Cup, they know one more win on the field could signal something even greater off it—generations in the making.
