USA v Honduras Olympic Qualifying review, plus a happier chat about USMNT v Northern Ireland

Joe and Taylor spend about an hour discussing the USA's 2-1 loss to Honduras in Olympic qualifying. What was the USA trying to do, how did Honduras nullify that approach so effectively, and why weren't the Americans able to find a way back? We go deep on individual moments, as well as the overall tactical approach and the adjustments made along the way. Plus, what does the result mean for the program generally speaking and for Jason Kreis specifically, and and where we go from here?

After that, it's on to the USMNT's 2-1 win over Northern Ireland, in which we saw Gregg Berhalter's potential new Plan B: a back three! What does this new look allow the team to do that they couldn't otherwise, who looked the most comfortable, who looked the opposite of that, and how might the game plan evolve from here?
