The USWNT has landed in Tokyo, and we are here to discuss their send-off series against Mexico.  We talk about both 4-0 wins, the triumphant return of Tobin Heath, the tragedy that was Christen Press's "offside" goal, and whether or not Rapinoe is fit enough to start.  Let us know your thoughts at settlethescorepodcast@gmail.com!

On today's episode, we'll be honest, there's not a ton of USWNT or NWSL happenings to talk about.  Instead, we check in before the Sweden and France games in April, and ask ourselves some very entertaining hypothetical questions about the upcoming Olympic Games!  Shoot us an email at settlethescorepodcast@gmail.com.

On this episode we delve into our deep love of Apple TV+'s Ted Lasso.  Sure, the show is not technically about women's soccer, but it IS the only soccer sitcom on tv, and Ted Lasso won us over hard, just like he does everyone.  We try to convince you to give the show a shot if you haven't seen it, and then we move into spoilers.  So whether or not you've seen the show yet, we w...

WOW.  On today's episode we talk all about the two USWNT games against Colombia last week.  The Mewis hat-trick, that Macario goal, Tierna Davidson's almost flawless game on Friday, and defenders playing offense.  Okay, let's be real, we talk about Macario A LOT.  We revisit everyone's chances  to make the Olympic roster (and whether or not they're even going to happen...)...

2020 was starting to make us think we weren't getting any more USWNT games.  But thankfully they played a brilliant match against The Netherlands last Friday.  We discuss the match in great detail, the lack of apparent rust the team showed, the return of Kristie Mewis, and the new USSF lawsuit news, and more!  Shoot us an email at settlethescorepodcast@gmail.com.
