Episode 78 is upon us, and this one has the Defenders asking, “Is it game day yet?!”
After the boys go over a few LAFC News and Notes and Scarf recaps This Day In LAFC History, it’s time to talk about the first preseason match of 2020, the international friendly against Uruguayan powerhouse Peñarol. We give our listeners a little taste of the rich, 128-year old history and track record of the club while showering some praise on the club and national team career of its newest coach, Diego Forlan.
It’s underpromise and overdeliver time! The boys give you six players to watch for on the pitch after initially promising only five! Couple that with numerous smooth segues that go wonderfully awry and you have all the makings for a classic Defenders episode.
A hearty congratulations to Bob Bradley for another award for the 2019 season, a healthy appreciation for South American club soccer, and the preseason pilot of a brand new segment, Putz of the Pod, all await on the newest episode of Defenders of the Banc with Filly and The Scarf!
