Hey, Fire fans and USMNT fans! The Fire are getting ready to re-start their MLS campaign, and the United States are once again the Kings of Concacaf!Tune in as our host previews the strengths and weaknesses of the Men in Red's next opponent: the Portland Timbers. The Timbers defense and home-field advantage should give them the edge. For the Fire to win, they'll have to possess the ball and keep up the pressure - which they've never done yet. Yikes.

Nick also gives us his quick impressions on the USMNT victory over Canada in the Nations League Final. The Yanks played some of the best soccer we've seen in recent memory, and dominated their northern neighbors. Most impressive were the defensive performances by Joe Scally and Antonee Robinson and the offensive performances by Gio Reyna and Folarin Balogun, but every single player did his part and did it well. Congrats to the reigning Kings of Concacaf!
