During this episode, the S&G crew discuss:

• recap of of the USWNT vs. South Africa and the 1 goal we scored vs. the 10 we created
• do we make a big deal about a 1-0 win or was it just a friendly?
• breakdown of Jill Ellis’ starting lineup and hoping for better performances from key players (hint, Morgan, Alex and Press, Christen)
• is the 4-3-3 the right lineup for this player pool? does it matter with the talent we have in the player pool?
• Alex Morgan and her unselfish runs and how she makes her wingers more dangerous
• what happened to our midfield? and it’s going to be tough world post-Lauren Holiday and Carli Lloyd.
• Why in the world did Christen Press play CAM?
• Does Hope Solo even need to be a good GK if we trot out that back-line every game?
• And yes, Hope Solo is just that good. Stats prove it. The eye test proves it.

• Meghan K is our favorite player and star of the game!
