Highlights from this week’s show.

We start the show off with a bang discussing last weekend’s 1-0 loss to Rochester. Boston held nothing back when it comes to the FC Cincinnati goalkeepers. Many of us weren’t surprised at the squad rotation over the weekend and understood why it needed to be done.

Joining us on the Kings Hammer Hotline this week is special guest, Austin Berry, defender and team captain from FC Cincinnati. Austin talks about his year in 2017, specifically the fact that he’s been able to stay healthy compared to last year. He credits his offseason routine for helping him stay fit this season. He also confirms a rumor about the Nippert Stadium turf. Austin also discusses his favorite player growing up, Thierry Henry, who starred for Arsenal, Barcelona and the New York Red Bulls in MLS.

It was announced, finally, this week that FC Cincinnati will play host to another international friendly. This time it’s Valencia from Spain’s La Liga who will be taking on the orange and blue.

PLUS, it was revealed this week that with FC Cincinnati’s win over that team down south in the US Open Cup, that I will, in fact, be painting up for a match sometime this summer. I’m apologizing to the Queen City in advance. With that win though, FC Cincinnati gets to host THE COLUMBUS CREW! Bring it on! Plus it means another Widmers Cleaners Clean Sheet.
