229. POSTGAME POD: LAFC v ES Tunis (FIFA Club World Cup Group Stage)
15:49||Ep. 229Travis crashes out following LAFC's crushing loss to ES Tunis, one of the worst moments in LAFC HISTORY. This game had it all: lack of effort, poor performance, zero creative play, individual failure, coaching failure, and a roster construction that wasn't up to it in the first place. Despite fans' dedication and traveling to support the team, this was thoroughly humiliating. It's Friday. Take a break, take a shot of something. Move on.
