Episode 30: S10E30: Cinc. Martins

Blue Balls NYCFC

Sharp-eared Blue Ballers will know: we never expected to be here after last week. But after a 3-1 victory over visiting Cincy, we've got ourselves a three-game series and the extra motivating factor of a cross-town rival in the postseason. Could NYCFC actually make it to the second round of playoffs? Or was the defensive devastation we saw on Saturday just a flash in the pan? Jake and Trey break it all down for you: Kevin O'Toole and Justin Haak's all-timer performances, Thiago Martins' first-ever club goal, standouts and brainfarts from Freese, and the coaching tete-a-tete that gave us our groove back heading into game three. Then: a little chat about the rest of the bracket, a check-in on spooky season, plus some precap discussion of NYCFC's high hill to climb away, staring down the end of their season. Check you didn't leave the stove on — you've got Blue Balls.
