Owain EvansHOST
Wow.
Owain EvansHOST
This guy, this guy actually 2024 did a lot of games in the USL Cup in the group stage, including a 12-11 penalty shootout between Lexington and Chattanooga Red Wolves.
Owain EvansHOST
Nice.
Owain EvansHOST
With two red cards and six yellows.
Robert KerrHOST
And, uh, kind of a, a bunched up pack there between everyone else.
Robert KerrHOST
Uh, Hartford Athletic, unfortunately, they lost in the, the USL Cup, uh, just recently by Louisville, who's in the, the playoff positions.
Robert KerrHOST
But Louisville, they've actually, kudos to them, they've won everything available to them.
Robert KerrHOST
But they haven't clinched a playoff spot.
Robert KerrHOST
He made his league debut.
Robert KerrHOST
I thought he was done.
Robert KerrHOST
He made one USL Cup, uh, appearance, like, three months ago.
Craig HearnGUEST
Yep.
Chad SmithHOST
It's a shame you have to react like that for you to get the call, but I think maybe they don't get the call without that.
Chad SmithHOST
In other news, Sheena, did you see that Ryan Sheaway, who's on loan at Louisville City, won USL Cup and they won a trophy today.
SheenaHOST
Wow, cool.
SheenaHOST
I
Chad SmithHOST
don't think you're genuinely excited for him.
Chad SmithHOST
Sheena, do you know what the USL Cup is?
SheenaHOST
Yeah, it's the thing sporting was in earlier this year.
Chad SmithHOST
No. That's the U.S. Open Cup.
Justin KalenHOST
So yeah, I did what I had to do.
Justin KalenHOST
And it's Louisville City who won the USL Cup this weekend.
Justin KalenHOST
So there you go, was supporting my boys.
Justin KalenHOST
Ohio guy says, "What an incredible comeback by the Brewers.
John KrysinskyHOST
So we'll be watching to see what happens with some of these teams that are breathing down their necks, what they do.
John KrysinskyHOST
Uh, your, your teams like, uh, Hartford, of course, playing in the USL Cup, uh, against Louisville, but then you have teams like, uh, India, India 11 and Rhode Island.
John KrysinskyHOST
They're, they're breathing down the Riverhounds' neck.
John KrysinskyHOST
So the Hounds have a challenging final three matches, but they can t- they can sort of start to turn things in their direction.
Vince GalvanoHOST
FIFA International window.
Vince GalvanoHOST
Players in action in the CONCACAF Nations League Africa Cup of Nations qualifying the 2026 FIFA World ASEAN Cup in the first national team action since the conclusion of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Vince GalvanoHOST
Obviously this past summer already in the rear view has been so far as we move steadily forward.
Vince GalvanoHOST
Although we did have the tremendous matchup between Spain and England.
Vince GalvanoHOST
But the big thing, I think, I would say two.
Vince GalvanoHOST
If I had to say, hey, what are the two things that I should know this weekend? We had a dress rehearsal.
Vince GalvanoHOST
A literal dress rehearsal for the USL Cup Final that is happening in, I believe, seven days' time.
Vince GalvanoHOST
Next Sunday, I should have the number there.
Vince GalvanoHOST
And have really been struggling, struggling to find wins in their column.
Vince GalvanoHOST
But nonetheless, have made it to the semifinal of the USL Cup.
Vince GalvanoHOST
They beat San Antonio.
Vince GalvanoHOST
They're going to play for Silverware quite soon.
Vince GalvanoHOST
And this is where things get interesting for Lew City.
Vince GalvanoHOST
They have to take on Hartford in back-to-back matches, one in the championship.
Vince GalvanoHOST
This is their next match, and the match after that will be in the USL Cup, both games taking place at Trinity Health Stadium.
Vince GalvanoHOST
So you have to wonder, in the next game between Hartford and Lucidi, will they play their best squads? Or will we see a tremendous amount of turnover in that match to just preserve what's kind of the patterns at play, the typical patterns that the teams establish so you don't throw anything off for the final of the USL Cup? That's going to be very interesting.
TomHOST
Oh, no, no, no.
TomHOST
Wait, it's the USL Cup.
CorbinHOST
The Jagermeister Cup.
CorbinHOST
The Jagermeister Cup.
LuisHOST
4 p.m. is the start time for that one.
LuisHOST
Also, we got a few listener questions that we'll address, among other things, VAR in the Cup.
LuisHOST
Also, a question about what we call San Antonio Encoracas.
LuisHOST
We'll shortly address that as well.
44 MINS LATER
LuisHOST
I know that like, again, it's something we've been calling for a while and I'm sure not just Rich, there might be other listeners, viewers who have never heard the story, probably wondering who is Uncle Ruckus? Well, yeah, that's Uncle Ruckus.
LuisHOST
Also, Rich had another question here for us.
LuisHOST
which is really interesting, I think, for us to address, right? So he was asking if we could address the new VAR-type system that is being used in the Cup, because as we know, there's going to be a new system.
LuisHOST
So he said, I assume it's going to be implemented at the beginning of next season.
Ryan SekoraHOST
The win over Tampa was the first time I watched them all year and thought, oh, this team could win the USL Championship playoffs.
Ryan SekoraHOST
Like, USL Cup... they've been a very good team the last couple years almost two two expected goals per game in that competition they've been dominant this year walking through teams throughout the majority of the usl cup this year brendan burke prioritizes that to prioritize that and get a win in a semi-final to try and defend your current cup crown and then back that up with a win against tampa bay at the weekend 3-1 in a convincing fashion led by michael adetokoun Really, really good team that organized the presses there.
Ryan SekoraHOST
They have this really keen understanding of where they want to trigger their press and sort of fluctuates against each opponent in slightly different ways.
Ryan SekoraHOST
I don't think there's a team that is humming more properly right now than Hartford.
33 MINS LATER
Peyton GallaherHOST
They're
John MorrisseyHOST
in seventh now.
John MorrisseyHOST
That just felt like a game where both of them were on three days rest from the USL Cup, and Colorado Springs was clearly saving the heavy artillery.
John MorrisseyHOST
Bennett doesn't start at midweek.
