The player becoming a goalie was because the Gotham team's goal keeper (Mandy Haught) received a red card for a hand ball outside of the box, which means she was kicked off of the field. If a player leaves the field due to a red card, the team is not allowed to sub in another player for them and they must play down a player on the field. However, they could sub the backup goalkeeper for one of the other players on the field as long as they are still down a player and the player who received the red is off the field, but Gotham had already used up all 5 of their subs so they couldn't
Also, there are hydration breaks in soccer if the temperature is high enough, and each team is allowed 5 subs total for the game. Half time is 15 minutes. There are also short breaks whenever there are injuries on the field.
Also the goalie swap happened with only about 45 seconds left of play time. It was stressful I'm sure but not like she had to play goal for that long.
It was literally even more dramatic than I described!!
Also wild that this is the second time Nealy Martin (the field player that went in goal) has had to my goalie for Gotham FC at SnapDragon Stadium
The fact that Gabe could spill all this tea flawlessly, but forget about basic sport rules. Queers are never going to beat the allegations 😂
Gabe is literally me telling a story...some of the facts may be wrong, but the DRAMA is there! 😂
thank you!!
may i petition for the return of the iconic JBU sign, even if it's just a tiny post-it sized sign
i second this!!
You missed the part where Rapinoe is one of Kriegers best friends and was also Ashlyns maid of honour… so you know… and rapinoe and krieger joked in a private chat about their last game ever would be in the final against each other…
WHOA
soccer games do have breaks- its divided into 45 minute halfs. and subbing isnt that uncommon you do it when the ball goes out of bounds like during throw ins, corner kicks, ect
Swapping who takes a corner/throw-in isn't necessarily subbing; people don't normally come off the bench to do it, though it can happen. Subbing is specifically replacing someone on the field with someone on the bench (using the board with the the neon numbers). It's common in that it happens every game, though only 3-5 times depending on the league/federation's rules.
@@kohlinoor i wasnt talking about swapping who takes it. u can sub when the ball goes out.. aka throw ins. u just have someone waiting at the half line for whenever it does. different orgs might have different rules but its definitely a thing
7:47 In regards to the goalie situation - goalie got a red card so they could only play with 10 players but either they ran out of subs or the sub window passed so they couldn’t bring in their back up goalie.
Ali Krieger doesn’t have an Olympic gold medal because she suffered a major knee injury in Olympic qualifying in 2012. That was the big storyline 13 years ago.
Holy shit
Not a sports person, but invested in the drama, or at least Gabe’s interpretation of it! Also Alison please drop where you got that adorable jacket!
Target!!
On the topic of couches, my mom during the pandemic waited a year for a couch to arrive, and then she ended up not liking it and gave it away to my older sibling. 🤣🤣
I feel like Gabe's understanding of soccer rules is too fuzzy to be explaining them to Alyson. Like, he can explain the drama but not the rules. Alyson was right to be skeptical haha
This video is such a weird capsule of US sports culture. Forgetting about men's soccer would be impossible practically anywhere outside the US, except maybe those weird rugby countries (Australia, India, South Africa, etc) and the baseball islands (Dominican Republic, Cuba). You can dislike it, but it's pretty much inescapable, like HPV. And seeing local championships as somehow counting more than Olympic medals, confederation championships AND multiple world championships? Very exotic.
Those are cricket countries not rugby countries
@@diplomog Riiiight, that's what I meant. Thanks. Clearly I am not a sports person at all. lol
Yeah, in particular the women's American soccer team is aggressively more popular than the men's one in the U.S. But I don't think that's the case in most countries which is annoying.
Gabe's shoulders look great in this shirt 💪 v sporty
I still curse my past self for not buying the cool “Sugar on the couch” t-shirt back when I had the chance!!!
As a Spaniard, I was laughing so much as Gabe was trying to explain football rules...
Mainly because I am still getting used to this new rule of 5 changes instead of 3 in some tournaments. 😂
My brain absolutely went to Kevin Spacey too. Totally different situations but same unnecessary coming out response. 🤦
Its so weird hearing Gabe forgot about men playing football. But then i remember that women's football is more popular in the US. Here in europe (Scotland!), while the networks try, mens football is really the only show in town, and of course is the biggest sport in the world.
Men’s football is still more popular in the U.S. by a mile. The NWSL is no where near the MLS in terms of budget or popularity.
@@1MPUL5IVE that’s true when it comes to leagues, but most people in the US don’t watch soccer. if they do it’s the national team and the women’s national team is much bigger than the men’s because they’ve actually won a bunch of stuff. Most people in the US know who Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan or Hope Solo is whether they watch soccer or not, but not Landon Donovan, Christian Pulisic or Tim Howard…
@@W4TSKY I do agree that the national team is more popular than club football in the U.S. The men’s national team is still far more popular though in terms of actual attendance. More people talk about the women’s national team, but that’s because there’s always drama surrounding it. Rapinoe was in the news because of her support in the LGBTQ community and demanding equal pay (Not because of her skills in football). People know Alex Morgan because of her beauty (Not because of the sport). Hope Solo was only known because certain “pictures” got leaked (again not because of the sport). In terms of attendance, the men’s national team, has always had more turnout, hence why the women’s national team never had the same budget and why they were getting paid far less. They just weren’t as popular when it came to actual marketing because although people talked about them, no one actually bought a ticket to go support them.
“I don’t think you’re correct” They weren’t 😂😂😂
The English womens soccer league (WSL) has crazy drama. Arsenal has multiple ex and current couples.
I need to know more!
@@JustBetweenUs there are literally hundreds of out queer women’s soccer players when you start paying attention internationally. So many couples and and exes that I can’t keep up with it!
@@JustBetweenUs The juiciest one is the Caitlin Foord and Katie McCabe drama:
Caitlin Foord and Lia Walti play for Arsenal and were dating for a couple years before breaking up in 2023 or maybe 2022. Katie McCabe also plays for Arsenal and was in a long term and publicised relationship with another footballer called Ruesha Littlejohn. They both play for the Irish national team. Right before the World Cup in 2023, there were rumours that they broke up and Katie McCabe was dating Caitlin Foord - who is Australian. These rumours were mostly confirmed when Ireland and Australia played each other in the World Cup and Ruesha Littlejohn refused to shake Caitlin Foord’s hand before the game. Ruesha Littlejohn said she had her reasons, which made people think there was an overlap. They have now essentially confirmed their relationship. Littlejohn has a podcast where she sometimes makes snide remarks about them and Katie McCabe - who is captain or Ireland - has unfollowed Irish teammates. Lia Walti’s new girlfriend is rumoured to be joining Arsenal next season.
Ashlyn and Ali were not equally good. Ali started and actually played in the world cup and olympics while Ashlyn never did. Ashlyn is a BIG thumbs down
oooooop
@@JustBetweenUs HUGE thumbs up to JBU though
I’m no Ashlyn fan, but that’s debatable. 1. You get 4 defenders and only one goal keeper, so it statistically less likely to be a starting goalkeeper. 2. Ashlyn came up under Hope Solo, who is a giant name in the history of women’s goalkeeping.
@@Eki2456 Personally think thats an odd debate. Ali played, Ashlyn didn't. If Ali was #1 right back then to be equally good Ashlyn would need to have been #1 keeper. Which as we know, was Solo
@@Eki2456 yeah keeper is a weird position because there is only the starter and no one else ever plays unless the starter is out for some reason. But with that being said, Ashlyn was on the national team for like a decade and never broke through. She could’ve competed with Naeher for the spot after Solo retired but she wasn’t good enough so she was delegated to bench player for life and her international career faded into obscurity
ummmmmm im gunna need a whole video on this MTV show thing. And also maybe other almosts
In regards to the goalie situation - goalie got a red card so they could only play with 10 players but either they ran out of subs or the sub window passed so they couldn’t bring in their back up goalie.
It's so funny that Gabe thought he was about to go to women's soccer and was surprised it was men's.
I'm in europe and over here it's the other way around: you hear "football" (soccer) and think "men's", and I can easily picture folks being surprised that their friend invited them to a women's game. There's a lot of misogyny in european football (and queerphobia as well, there's no prominent male gay player who's officially out).
And racism, and antisemitism. Football culture sucks, I don't know why we tolerate it.
Oh, there is mad misogyny in sports here in America. This is a rare phenomenon because USA women have achieved greatness in soccer time and time again, while the men’s team has yet to do that.
And yet women’s soccer is still less well attended than men’s (I’m not complaining, I don’t like people)
After all these years, Gabe spilling the goss with Allison on the couch is still my absolute favourite vibe ❤
Edit: WAIT a dang second, you two almost had a show on MTV!? It's wild to me that so many TV execs squandered their opportunity to showcase scripted or unscripted shows by you two.
We're definitely having that conversation about Brittney Griner when she was detained.
Sophia Bush makes sense because she's talked about this before. She's said that she is kind of fluid in her sexuality and that she finds women especially attractive. She has stated on multiple occasions that she find women more attractive than men. But the cheating 😬
its crazy to me how Americans root for individual players instead of teams
I feel like I would favor a specific team if there was one nearby enough to physically go to the games and watch. But I’m watching everything through a screen and by myself. So my interest goes to wherever my favorite players go. I feel like I’m missing out on the team camaraderie aspect for sure.
This is so funny, it feels like when my partner explaning the drama of his favourite league
The Internet: “Be Gay, Do Crime.”
Kevin Spacey: “Okay, will do.”
I appreciate that John listens to Effectively Wild.
The conversation around pressure on teams and players reminded me of the situation for the Mayo Gaelic Football team (Irish sport). They won the All-Ireland Championship in 1951 and havent since. There are a few stories but the one i grew up with is that the bus returning to the county with the players after the win overtook a funeral procession which is a big no-no. The priest was furious and cursed them, saying that as long as everyone on the bus is alive Mayo will never win again. The Mayo team have come unbelievably close to winning again in the last decade and have missed out everytime, and for a long time only two people of the origonal team were still alive. The almost-wins were so close that if you didnt believe in curses you sure as hell would now. And people care so much ahout GAA (great sport!) that you'd honestly be concerned that someone would have tried killing them. I think theyre both dead now, so well have to see what happens next time Mayo gets to the final!
wow so excited for the white couch era ‼️
While I’m not personally all that harsh on Sophia having a messy/selfish journey to finding her queerness, it’s worth adding how Ashlyn specifically hard-launched her relationship with Sophia on social media like the same exact day Ali’s career and retirement was being honored by the NWSL. It was a day meant to celebrate Ali’s entire life’s work and it was such a bizarre choice to do that. It felt pointedly disrespectful and did nothing to help Ashlyn’s image.
Ashlyn only became likeable due to her association with Ali. She should have recognized that and played it differently
hi JBU, big fan, I watch every vid as soon as I see you post; if I can make ONE crtique, I love your format and wouldn’t change it for the world, but all the different names in this story made it very hard to follow!! would be really helpful if you can display a photo of each person as you introduce their name!!
Thank god for the new couch. I really hated the gray one 😂
was wild to witness this drama in real time!!
is the couch faux leather or fox leather?
wow I’ve never been this early. congrats on the new couch Allison!
I kept getting distracted by allisons nails. The're so cute!
HAHA THE KRASHLYN FANDOM HAS ENTERED THE BUILDING remember 🌍🙃
Loving the couch💜
Haha, once I bought a Clif bar cuz it had an illustration of Megan Rapinoe on it and I was like, "Well, I *am* queer"
Has there always been a door to the right of the cabinets?
Like if you were here since Brown Couch!
So sorry to ask, I've not watched for a little bit so i wanted to ask what pronouns you two prefer nowerdays? And possibly what names you go by nowerdays?
Best wishes to both of you :)
Gabe is using he/they according to his IG bio and Allison uses she/her. 😊
@@brittlynn4 thank ypu so much ^-^
9:00 yes Kevin Spacey PR
You know, between this video and a volleyball manga I was reading, i might actually get into sports (I am historically a big nerd and very bored by sports)
Where is the Phantom and Sugar portrait from??
I love this series
Learning that I didn't know how to say Megan Rapinoe's name
8:32 gold medals are from a CHAMPIONSHIP.
They were Olympic champions.....
No Nwsl tho
@@JustBetweenUs Correct. But a championship is a championship regardless... 🤷🏼♂
As a dude who much prefers women's soccer if I am going to watch soccer, I appreciated this video. You 2 are wild.
Ally is also retiring btw!
yes! forgot to mention
escandalo de futbol!
what do you mean no championship, they've literally won the world cup twice
I think he means no NWSL championship.
No women's soccer championship tho
This is not all accurate.
I think there was a public conversation about WNBA salaries and league money in 2019 if i recall correctly. The narrative was blaming men and NBA and comparing both leagues salaries and saying how unfair. Even WNBA players gave into that narrative it was shocking. I think then it was said that WNBA is subsidized by NBA and attendances and popularity of both leagues is incomparable. So i think we should have a MASSIVE PUBLIC conversation about this again and if narrative is again just blaming men and NBA the NBA should just 100% cut ties and cut all the funding from WNBA. This question about WNBA is not interesting or hard it only becomes hard or interesting question if you ignore attendance popularity profitability of the WNBA.
I feel like 75k a year is reasonable for a sports professional. I think the men just get paid way too much.
Hi ! I hope this question won’t bother anyone but I honestly been wondering for a while if Igor is still around ? 😅
Did something happen? I know it’s none of my business but I’m nosy and I liked the trio (love the duo to of course)
I think Allison addressed it once on the podcast, that a few years ago Igor was like "I'm not really feeling this friendship anymore, bye" and just sort of... ended it, one-sidedly. No big falling out (that we know of), but yeah, he's not around anymore.
First
Not me casually trying to find someone online talking about women's sports meta a couple days ago, only for y'all to upload exactly what I wanted 🥲
