Welcome to the Orange & Blueprints Podcast — your go-to destination for all things Houston Dash and women’s soccer in the Bayou City!

In this episode, Manny and Diego break down the Houston Dash’s impressive victory over the league-leading KC Current — a massive win that kept their playoff hopes alive, at least for a moment. Despite the team’s determination and standout performance, results elsewhere around the league ultimately dashed their postseason aspirations. Now, as the NWSL heads into an international break, several Dash players are off representing their countries before the team returns for their final match of the season. Though eliminated from playoff contention, Houston will look to close out their campaign on a high note with one last statement win.

From game highlights to player interviews, strategy breakdowns, and the latest news surrounding the Dash, we’ve got it all covered. We can’t wait to share this season with you and keep you connected to the action on and off the field. Stay tuned for all things Houston Dash and women’s soccer – it's going to be an unforgettable season!

Welcome to the Bayou City Soccer Podcast! In this episode, Cristian breaks down the season finale for the Houston Dynamo — a dull, scoreless draw against Sporting KC that felt like a fitting end to a frustrating season. He offers his honest review of the 2025 campaign, a year marked by disappointment for the club.

From key departures and a lack of impactful signings to a season plagued by injuries and absences, the Dynamo were constantly playing catch-up. Cristian also dives into a bigger question: does Houston lack a unified soccer culture when it comes to supporting the Dynamo? And is the club doing enough on the marketing front to truly engage the city?

Finally, Cristian gets personal, sharing why soccer is more than just a game for him — it's a deeper, emotional connection.

Houston has effectively put itself in a must-win situation down the stretch, making every point critical as the playoff race tightens.

And finally, is the Houston Dash up for sale? It certainly appears that way. A recent report from Sportico reveals that owner Ted Segal is in talks with a Chinese investor about a potential deal — one that would require approval from the NWSL. Regardless of the outcome, early indications suggest the club will remain in Houston.

From game highlights to player interviews, strategy breakdowns, and the latest news surrounding the Dash, we’ve got it all covered. We can’t wait to share this season with you and keep you connected to the action on and off the field. Stay tuned for all things Houston Dash and women’s soccer – it's going to be an unforgettable season!

Welcome to the Bayou City Soccer Podcast! In this episode, the crew is joined by Manny and Madelyn to break down the Houston Dynamo’s final home game of the season—a tough 4-2 loss that officially ends their hopes for a third consecutive playoff appearance. While disappointing, this outcome felt inevitable, with the writing on the wall as early as preseason. From the start, the team was playing catch-up and never quite found their rhythm. Now, all eyes turn to the season finale against Sporting Kansas City next week, as the club prepares to hit the reset button and begin the rebuilding process once again.
