Big D Soccer After Dark Podcast: Jesus Ferreira for MVP

I am not a fan of sports heads piling on the pressure for teams this late in the season, not that it registers in the locker room (except if you are Felipe from Austin FC), but FC Dallas went into their home match against Los Angeles FC in need of a win.

In some ways, the game would define the trajectory of this season:

A win → a strong chance to host a playoff game

A loss → a strong chance to play that opening playoff game away

Considering where this team was a year ago, talk of FC Dallas and a playoff game would have been welcome regardless to a bunch of fans under a new head coach and roster turnover.
