Tobin & Christen = YOU KNOW THAT IF VAR CALLS REFEREE TO SEE SOMETHING means that 4 var refs not agree with referee decision , so YOUR 2-1 VICTORY AGAINST SPAIN with 2 soft penaltys at 2019WC was a rob . please you have the dignity to recognize that this victory wasn't fair ,so spain deserved more in 2019WC ,and was posible that what we are seing now of spain we would have seen it in 2019

[@RJ-mg4nt]

Leah Williamson, Kosovare Asllani, Vivienne Miedema, Abby Dalkamper, Ali Riley, etc. have all now been on the Re-inc show, my expectations cannot get higher

[@michaelseckman4936]

knowing them they might never run out of teammates

[@christysantos9500]

"Winning does not make abuse okay!" Amen, Tobin! 100%! I can't help but think of the US Women's Gymnastics team under the Karolyis. So many Olympic medals over more than two decades, but at what cost? Hundreds of athletes, Olympians, college athletes, and local club athletes were abused because the entire system was unhealthy and abusive. Thank you for making the important point that success never justifies abuse. Love you, Christen and Tobin! The show is amazing.

[@bkirstie]

🏆

[@carnage5007]

The Spain Coach is abusive, meanwhile Mourinho and Alex Ferguson and just about most other top male football manager says hold my beer, you want real abuse, how bout the time Ferguson threw a shoe directly at David Beckham, I guess women have a much lower tolerant of what is abuse compared to men, sometimes it's hilarious watching these women podcast talk about things, give the impression that they are from Venus and men from Mars, oh wait, there's already a book written about that concerning relationships.

[@roselanedasilva-miller639]

Facts! We need this on a shirt and Everywhere!

[@djshiva]

I love Ali's whole vibe, especially talking about the women's soccer community as a collective and using her privilege and platform for good. What fantastic energy!

[@InTheseCleats]

Hell yeah!!

[@yjk5737]

Unresolved mysteries 😆: 37:20 - The jacuzzi story 56:31 - Christen doing her favorite scene 1:16:09 - Ali and Christen's college stories

[@couturecriminal8330]

O'Hara as well went to Stanford would be incredible to hear all three of them reminisce

[@englebre21]

That wild hearing Leah talk about how the environment has changed. I remember Wambach in 2011 talking about going around in a van, handing out tickets and trying to drum up support. Its so great all these incredible players are getting some proper support!!

[@michaelseckman4936]

its especially shameful for england and europe to have taken this long to get their players right because it just took the smallest bit of investment siphoned off from the mens side to give them quality treatment

[@lauraakers8576]

Hats off to Ali Riley and all the brave women who are moving this beautiful game forward - we love you and are grateful for your courage ❤

[@shadysoldier603]

I could watch this show forever. I never want it to end

[@InTheseCleats]

Agreed

[@rachel212bat]

Ali, Christen, and Tobin's discussion around realizing the importance of not just fighting for the next generation, but fighting for themselves as well, was so powerful and impactful. Such an important reminder to us all!

[@kycone]

I feel like this is common to all women and why people so often stay in bad personal relationships. Women will always fight more for others than themselves, and that should change.

[@kellyf5922]

Ali Riley seems like such an awesome teammate to have. Volemos!

[@stephaniee2075]

So brave of Ali to speak up. Breaking the abuse cycle in the game is SO important but so emotionally invasive. ❤

[@kycone]

Yeah, even her two close friends who have gone through similar things haven’t heard about it-she really put herself out there for this. I really admire all these players.

[@PaulaGarcia-jy1zb]

im from spain and it really hurts to see the situation of nowadays with knowing all the past. The team has only had 2 coaches. One for 27 years with lots of abuse and jorge is going for his year number 8... and its not only the coach. Its the conditions. For ex is the first time they travel with a nutritionist... JUST INCREDIBLE

[@Pancakemoon97]

Also the fact that Vilda is the coach and the sports director... Of course he won't fire himself. It's so unbelievably stupid and wouldn't happen in the men's team.

[@carmencoberly2929]

Yeah! I hope Spain wins and they throw Vidal out.

[@delfmendez4311]

Regardless some players make 6 figures? !

Spain finally gets the resources they deserve and they’ll be truly scary

3:12 I'm happy that you talked about the Japanese team and cheer to them. We are so proud of this team.

[@epluribusunum3596]

Thank you for another honest in depth conversation only you and your guests can provide. A side note on the incredible Colombia support by their fans, I heard there are currently many young Colombians attending universities in Australia, and they certainly added to the joyous celebration at the World Cup. Colombia was so much fun to watch. Their unified passionate singing of their national anthem was moving. They played with such courage. I hope to see the Colombian Federation increase the funding and support for their women's teams.

[@kycone]

That’s an interesting relationship-I wonder why? I’ve aways heard that Australia was a really hard place to immigrate to, even for work or school.

[@hmccharmedgirl]

As someone who has watched these two play on the pitch on the club level and USWNT level, and to have been able to meet Tobin twice in person, this show makes me love them even more! They are so effective on and off the pitch and they change lives for the better!!! Please keep this show going!

[@thereallg4587]

*Not only did they interview Ali, but Tobin interviewed Leah as well. Very random but very cool.*

[@JamesCM86]

How is it random?

[@couturecriminal8330]

Tobin was at Arsenal and United is closer to Arsenal Women I think she is an Arsenal fan as well she interviewed Vivianne Miedema so Leah makes sense.

[@thereallg4587]

Here in South Australia, the quarter final between Aussies and France was real emotion man... I was at a casino watching along with about 200-300 people, and during the whole penalty shoot out, it was so loud I couldn't hear my own thoughts. Matildas played their heart out to beat a team so higher up. It felt like we had won the whole world cup 🥹. Historic, mate! Go Matildas!

[@leiemon998]

i was at the olympic park and oh my lord the collective energy after that win was nothing like ive felt before. what an experience that was 😮‍💨

Brainy talk mixed with heartstring moments, just another pitch-perfect episode! ! Loved hearing from Leah”mama-captain-for-life” Williamson & the always amazing Ali “stand-up-for-your-peeps” Riley. This behind-the-scenes, before & after the movie content is golden. Tobin, love those bold predictions, gotta get Christen’s in there 👍

[@wosomac6702]

“The Will of Ali Reilly” is absolutely a feeling I get each game at BMO. Special Player, Special Human, fantastic Guest.

Hell yeah!!

[@SilverSpenceBass]

hope they keep the show going after the world cup ends

[@bkirstie]

yes, nwsl edition

[@biancaestevez8454]

Agreed! Would love to see all the leagues and competitions highlighted.

[@tjeanav]

Another excellent show! This shows models how women can support each other and how to bring about change. I would also love for Ali Riley to have her own show. More content like this is needed.

[@InTheseCleats]

For real!!

[@SophiePham-p8y]

Can we get Jenni on this show please!! Loved Ali Riley though! She puts her heart and soul in every team she's on. Everyone's hype woman! I love all these different guests and am always surprised/excited for each one. Can't wait for the next one!

[@bkirstie]

yes, the Spanish leaders. Perhaps they can shed some light about what’s going on and put pressure on the federation. The beautiful thing is I’m sure they can reach these players just via text with who they played with. and who knows who

[@coachholly21]

Jenni Hermoso would be awesome!

I imagine they can't until any legal or disciplinary proceedings happen.

[@onjiliqueva1231]

Being from NZ, football (soccer) isn’t one of our big sports. But watching the fifa World Cup changed my mind. The skill, heart and passion the players have and showed this tournament was incredible. And I have watched every game every since it started. This maybe my new sport to try out next year 😂

[@ca2ne]

Watching these conversations highlighting the sea change of attitudes in the women's game has been amazing. Only here, only with these hosts and these guests! Great episode.

[@camillerussell3010]

Such a good interview with Ali. Happy to get to hear more of her story. Love this show ❤

[@carminasum7682]

Each episode is better than the last!!! Such amazing behind the scenes from Ali. Wow

[@shawnacrompton5281]

I adore the combination of technical talk and the emotional/love of the game talk. It’s great how this show doesn’t dumb anything down and gets right to the nitty gritty. Such a great show!!!

[@anger101]

Top tier guests and so much quality football discussions. Love this show so much.

[@jaredjohnson8553]

I'm hoping with two games left Amanda Ilestedt can become the first Central Defender ever to win the Golden Boot at a World Cup. That would be cool AF.

Nailed it again. Love Ali Riley! Leah Williamson bonus. Keep it up.

[@gqpatf1540]

Agree 100% with Tobin in regards to Keira needing help in the middle and Katie Zelem is the right choice in a double pivot and put Georgia Stanway at the 10. England to break the hearts of the Aussies and get to the final.

[@jasonhechler9520]

Just want to say that the re-cap show has been some amazing analysis for this WWC. Looking forward to seeing it continue after the world cup is over. Perhaps for some of the club leagues or other tournaments in the future? Thanks again for the real, in-depth, sports analysis!

[@marianjensen5520]

This platform is so well done. Wonderful to hear this in-depth interview with ALI, a player who might not be as well known but who has a dual country experience and has done so much to bring attention to NZ and promote global growth of the game. Brains and heart!! You women ROCK!!

[@42cwills]

What y’all are doing with this show is special. You’ve created a space full of love and authenticity - something I never knew could be in a ‘sports show’. Thank you for standing for the respect and leadership of women through the world. Keep up the great work!!!

Well, I am huge fan of Spain n Australia. I am rooting for Spain, but it's really hard not to see players who deserved to be there... For exampl, Mapi Leon is the gr8 athlete, she's so talented and inspiring, I totally understand her situation... Still, I'd be happy to see Alexia and Jenny winning or playing in finals. thnx for the episode and your thoughts regarding all the probs...

[@Pancakemoon97]

I'm kind of conflicted on that cause I don't want Vilda to succeed and Mapi to miss it but of course it would be awesome for Bonmati, Battle, Putellas & Co.

[@jbear4240]

I was in the stadium to watch the Matildas vs France match. It was amazing! Aus is a rugby and AFL (Aussie rules football) nation (very male focused) but the whole nation is now supporting the Matildas. The detractors of women's soccer say it doesn't bring in $ but it's estimated it will bring in around 5 and a half billion to the economy. And as for no one watching Women's football, 37% of the nation watched the game (and that's the figures from only one TV channel so it's actually higher). I nearly cried when I saw young boys wearing shirts with a woman's name on it. Never thought I'd see the day. Women's soccer is here to stay. Just amazing. Carn Straya! (C'mon Australia!) Btw I'm Australian but whoever wins in the Aus vs Eng game, it will still be a win for Women's football.

[@golden.lights.twinkle2329]

There are lots of female sports in Australia: football, rugby, volleyball, tennis, cricket, netball. Most sports are now played by men and women. Netball is about the only single-sex sport and that is female-only.

[@jbear4240]

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 You kinda missed the point here. There are women's sports in Australia but they are not as supported or their players as well known as the men's. 10 years ago only 8% of sports articles featured women. That number is now higher but in no way comparable to men's. Women get less sponsorship deals as well and/or have difficulty securing them. Just ask our netball team. The Matildas scored a double whammy - they brought attention to a code which has traditionally struggled against three other football codes AND women soccer players. Women's football didn't use to exist and now it does. But existing is not enough. Thriving as much as the men's game should be the aim.

I LOVE the conversations happening on this show. Not only has it helped me learn more about women’s soccer from the players’ perspective, but I’m able to take so much from this just as a woman in general. I feel so full 😊 Love love love it keep doin your thing Tobin and christen!

[@annameinheart]

Ali is just such a great person! Her energy is so infectious

[@everythingalwaysnow]

Solid ep. Great to see a WOC on the show (outside of Christen of course). It would've been cool to see Riley touch on AAPI in the world of football and sport. Each guest has unique perspectives/experiences of different issues, would love to see someone like Crystal Dunn come on to talk about the Black experience. For sure thought Ali and Christen would've taken a moment to brag about Stanford players dominating the national team.

[@fluffy485]

By the way, I think this is the best show about the United States women’s national team. You have got a loyal follower!!!

[@kindakatams9311]

I like the bit where they talk about Spain cause people are being a bit harsh on the players that has returned without really understanding their motives, it's an extremely sad situation for all players both who returned to an abusive environment in the hopes of change or the ones who gave up their dreams of playing in the world cup and sadly the outcome after all of this can benefit only the coach in a place as corrupt as the Spanish federation

[@BelleandBuddy29]

Finally getting around to catching up on these episodes and I really appreciated Ali Riley's story about their match against Norway.

This WC has been so bittersweet for me as a Spaniard. I want my country to win, but at the same time I feel bad rooting for them because the Federation will use this as a way of saying they were right in the first place. I can’t watch their games without thinking about those great players like Mapi or Patri that have been giving their all to the NT for years and they won’t get to enjoy the results if they do end up winning.
