Episode 219 - The Supporters Shield Comes Home!
It's Episode 219, and the Supporters Shield is home! Yes, we played Nashville, and sure, we lost, but that result was but an afterthought to the all-day celebration at the Banc as the Shield came home.
LAFC actually played a great game, as they generated 29 shots and 14 on target, but Joe Willis had ideas to spoil our celebration for at least a few hours. Save after save by Willis and a back post, set-piece header by Teal Bunbury allowed Nashville to come away with a 1-0 win and a good view of the party that resumed right after as the Shield took center pitch. Thoughts of Mo, the success of 2019, and a world pre-pandemic couldn't help but flood our minds as the Shield was brought to center pitch by KC and Sujin.
LAFC now has 11 days off (at least) as we wait for the winner of Carson vs. Nashville. You'll hear all about that on Episode 220, but until then, enjoy 219, and enjoy the celebration!
