Christian Pulisic is supposed to be the guy for the USMNT—but right now, it's not looking great. We break down his dip in form for both club and country and ask the uncomfortable question: can the U.S. really trust him to deliver on the biggest stage? Is this just a rough patch, or are we seeing the limits of what he can be as the face of American soccer? We also partnered with Meta to tap directly into the fan conversation, answering your biggest USMNT questions straight from Threads. From lineup debates to World Cup expectations, we dig into what supporters are really thinking—and where the panic might (or might not) be justified. Finally, we zoom out to the global game and react to the chaos of World Cup qualifying playoffs, presented by Smirnoff Ice. Italy misses out on another World Cup and the questions are only getting louder, while Iraq's qualification gives us one of the best stories in football right now. Add in inspiring runs from Congo and Sweden, and a bigger conversation about the expanded World Cup format, and there's plenty to get into.

Episode Notes The Republic of Ireland suffered a heartbreaking 2-1 defeat to France in their World Cup qualifier after a brave performance that deserved more. Despite taking the lead through Katie McCabe, Ireland produced one of their best performances of the campaign against a star-studded France women's national football team side. With standout performances from Emily Murphy, Chloe Mustaki, and Megan Connolly, Ireland dominated large spells of the match and looked capable of pulling off a famous result. But elite quality eventually told. Substitute Melvine Malard sparked the comeback before France snatched a late winner, leaving Republic of Ireland women's national football team with nothing to show for a spirited display. In this episode of Girls in the Game, we break down: Ireland's tactical setup and the surprise 3-5-2 formation The impact of Emily Murphy's breakout performance Defensive heroics from Chloe Mustaki The key moments that changed the match Whether Ireland deserved at least a draw Did Ireland miss a huge opportunity against France?

Hi there! Welcome to Episode 341 of the Never on the Backfoot Podcast. The ICC Women's T20 World Cup Qualifier 2026 gave us far more than just four qualification spots. Across conditions in Nepal, teams from five regions pushed, adapted, stumbled, and surprised — revealing just how much the global women's game is evolving.In this episode, Sudeshna Bhattarai joins us to break down the tournament beyond the scorecards. We discuss how early assumptions around team hierarchies were challenged, which sides truly understood the conditions, and how adaptability often mattered more than experience.From Bangladesh's measured dominance and Ireland's understated efficiency to Scotland and the Netherlands navigating pressure in different ways, we assess what actually separated the qualifiers from the rest. We also dive into the campaigns of Thailand, USA, PNG, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and host Nepal — unpacking identity, preparation gaps, momentum swings, and the psychological weight of expectations.The episode also zooms out to ask the bigger questions: with a 16-team Women's T20 World Cup on the horizon, does this Qualifier finally feel like a real pathway? And which of the qualified teams looks best placed to compete — not just participate — on the world stage?A tournament shaped by conditions, clarity, and consequence — this is a deep-dive into what the Qualifier really told us about the present and future of women's international cricket.Thank you so much for tuning in to today's episode and for your incredible support.

I've been in the competitive scene for five years now. In 2022, I clinched the coveted title of Team of the Year in Brisket from the Champions Barbecue Alliance Association. Over the past few years, I've proudly secured two top-3 brisket finishes at the fiercely competitive San Antonio Rodeo, where the stakes are high with nearly 300 teams competing. What really keeps me going, though, is the bond I've formed with fellow BBQ enthusiasts. It's not just about winning. It's about the friendships and sense of community we've built.
