    I really enjoy listening Futbol W on Tuesdays night. Love how Ali interacts with players, she is kind and give them an opportunity to show their work . She is also very good in her analysis on the games . The team is great Cristina and Jeff are very good as well.

  • Enjoy the shows

    I really enjoy futbol Americas. Futbol W has been a nice addition but Ali really needs to improve her interview skills. The constant “I like you so much, how does it feel to be so good?” is annoying and repetitive. Updated this 8/6/25 Ali is still a terrible interview questioner. She asked Esme Morgan to contrast the differences between NWSL and FA WSL and then didn’t let her answer the question, just rambled on!

  • Not as good as when Seb was on.

    It’s still an informative show. But not as entertaining as when Seb was on. Cristina is straight up awkward. Her attempts at humor fall flat and now she’s starting to bring politics into the show with “one liners.” You can tell Herc holds back with her, unlike with Seb.
