They discuss how Atalanta got those deals done, and the growing interest in European club soccer in North America and worldwide.

They also reminisce about the time when Jonathan covered Esmeralda's playing career at Princeton, back when they were both college students, including when Esmeralda led Princeton to the 2004 Final Four, and they discuss the Ivy League's continued success in developing pro-level women's soccer players like Tyler Lussi and Margaret Purce.
