Sounders FC Pod-Cast With Brad and Zak

Episode 235

Seattle Sounders FC Season 8 Episode 86

Steve Zakuani and Brad Evans are back on the mic to break down a commanding performance from the Seattle Sounders in the opening round of this year’s Leagues Cup. The Rave Green punched their ticket to the knockout rounds with a 2-1 win over Liga MX side Club Tijuana on Wednesday night — capping off a perfect group stage run with three wins from three and a flawless nine-point tally.

Zak and Brad dive into the big-picture implications of these results: Has the gap between MLS and Liga MX finally closed? The duo debate that hot topic and also revisit Pedro de la Vega’s jaw-dropping golazo against Cruz Azul — comparing where it ranks among the all-time great Sounders goals.

Up next: Seattle shifts focus back to league play as they hit the road to face defending MLS Cup champions LA Galaxy this Sunday. Catch the match on Apple TV+ (and MLS Season Pass), FS1, FOX Deportes, or listen live on 93.3 KJR FM and El Rey 1360 AM for Spanish-language coverage.
