Historic Wins

It’s been a busy week of league and cup matches around Europe, so Musa and Ryan begin at Camp Nou, where Real Madrid put four past Barcelona to progress to the Copa del Rey final to face Osasuna, who are there for only the second time in their history (03:32). Next it’s off to Germany, where Freiburg recorded a historic win at Bayern to end Thomas Tuchel’s side’s hopes of a treble (12:05), Leipzig made a tough week tougher for Dortmund and there were more goals from Randal Kolo Muani. In Italy, there were grim scenes as Romelu Lukaku received more racist abuse at Juventus, then received a second yellow for his response to the crowd after scoring Inter’s equalising penalty (19:15). Finally, there’s also some chat about this week’s round of Premier League fixtures, including a great night for Newcastle and yet another win for Aston Villa (24:35), plus a bit on Frank Lampard’s return to Chelsea, recorded before the news was confirmed.

We have a point! From small acorns do big playoff pushes grow. Hopefully. Vancouver Whitecaps finished March with a draw against Seattle Sounders. We look back at the match, hear from both head coaches, and look at some of the 'Caps news from both heading into the game and coming out of it. Plus our feature interview this week is a chat with Spanish midfielder, and new 'Caps captain, Jon Erice. Plus in a packed show we kick off our season long homage to the 'Caps historic 1979 NASL Soccer Bowl win on the anniversary weekend of that year's season opener. We look back at what was happening that weekend, the game against Dallas Tornado, and dig into our vaults to bring you an interview we had with the wonderful Willie Johnston back in 2014. Plus we look at the weekend's action in the MLS West and it's a special double Frank Sidebottom Wavelength this week to celebrate the release of the documentary film honouring his life, Being Frank.
