The quarterfinals of the UEFA Women's Champions League is complete, and while we're excited to watch four incredible clubs compete in the semifinals, we spend a good chunk of this episode memorializing the four incredible clubs who've been eliminated.

We start, where else, in Bergen, Norway. We honor the club and the Brann Battalion, but please remember, this isn't "goodbye;" it's merely a "see ya later."

Then, we discuss Ajax's elimination after a 1-1 draw in London. With a combination of young players and a historic club, we know we'll be seeing them again soon.

Benfica, Benfica, Benfica -- you brought us such joy. From Kika Magic to incredible neck tattoos, to hard-nosed defense, we're looking forward to watching this squad continue to progress.

Speaking of hard-nosed defense, we spent some time discussing BK Häcken's incredible back line and goalkeeper Jennifer Falk. From the great atmosphere in Gothenburg, to the pair of dynamic 20-year-old attackers, this squad is setup for long-term success.

We also sprinkled in talk about the upcoming slugfests between Barcelona-Chelsea and Lyon-PSG. Stay tuned, as we'll have a full, proper preview of the semifinals before those kickoff.

Lastly, we head Into the News to talk about the devastating news of Midge Purce's ACL injury. Get well soon, Midge. We got your back!

We then transitioned into discussing the roster for the SheBelieves Cup, which includes ITC-favorite Lily Yohannes. (Remember, the SBC is not a FIFA-sanctioned tournament, so Yohannes playing in these matches doesn't mean she's officially a USWNT player -- but it's still GREAT.)
