Episode Notes
No matter what gets thrown at the Washington Spirit, they keep on climbing the NWSL standings. So what is it like to play for the team after numerous lineup changes, transfers, injuries, and a head coaching change?
On this week's Full Time Focus, host Jillian Sakovits is joined by Spirit and Canada defender Gabby Carle to talk about another chaotic but impressive season in Washington DC, as well as a look ahead to the weekend's big match against top-of-the-table Kansas City Current and how to defend the reigning NWSL MVP Temwa Chawinga. And, of course, the French-Canadian delivers some guidance on where the best place to get poutine is.
PLUS: Get focused with Full Time's 1-2-3 of what to watch this weekend from the prospect of Jaedyn Shaw making her Gotham FC debut at the home of her former club, to historic weekend for Everton women in the English Women's Super League.
