It’s been almost a week since the LA Galaxy won their record sixth MLS Cup, completing one of the most impressive turnarounds the league has ever seen.

Plus, Taylor looks to 2025 by speaking with San Diego FC coach Mikey Varas ahead of the club’s inaugural season.

The script for this year’s MLS Cup serves up a gripping story, as founding clubs clash against each other in the final for the first time. On one side, the LA Galaxy, a former dynasty who fell on hard times, aim to regain their crown for an astonishing sixth time. On the other, the gutsy, gritty New York Red Bulls, who have been here since the beginning, try to make it to the mountaintop for the first time. In this episode, Taylor breaks down everything you need to know about the MLS Cup Final with fellow MLS Season Pass colleagues Diego Valeri and Sacha Kljestan. Plus, they check back in on how their preseason predictions held up. Offside With Taylor Twellman is a Major League Soccer podcast, produced by Apple TV and Rain Delay Media.

The MLS Cup Playoffs have always had upsets. But if this year feels extra chaotic, it’s not just you. So today, Taylor sits down with two of the managers behind some of this year’s post-season mayhem. First, Brian Schmetzer of the Seattle Sounders, who just knocked off the West’s #1 seed LAFC. Then, Sandro Schwarz of the New York Red Bulls, fresh off his team’s win over crosstown rivals, New York City and not far removed from their sweep of the reigning champions , Columbus. Plus, the Offside crew visited that first-ever playoff edition of the Hudson River Derby to hear from fans on the ground.

Five teams made it to the conference semifinals on shootouts, and in the MLS playoffs, there’s always the possibility of more. So ahead of this weekend’s matches, Offside takes a deeper look at this game within the game, what some consider the most cerebral part of soccer: the penalty kick. Taylor speaks with two-time MLS Cup winner and goalkeeping legend Nick Rimando, who has the most PK saves in league history, to learn about his secret to stopping penalties. Dániel Gazdag of the Philadelphia Union, who holds the record for most PK goals in an MLS season, shares what makes him so successful from the spot. And sports psychologist Dr. Mariah Bullock, herself a former footballer, explains the mental battle of a penalty kick.

The second weekend of MLS Cup Playoffs couldn’t have been more exciting: defending champs Columbus getting knocked out, the Galaxy sending a message to the rest of the West, and Atlanta stunning Miami in stoppage time. The Athletic’s Felipe Cardenas was at Mercedes-Benz Stadium to watch Atlanta tie the series, and he joins Taylor to reminisce about the incredible night and speculate what might happen next—in Miami on Saturday and throughout the rest of the postseason.

This time last year, the Galaxy were watching the playoffs from the sidelines. For the third time in four years, the most decorated team in MLS history hadn’t qualified. But head coach Greg Vanney vowed that this season would be different—and he was right. LA have been around the top of the standings all year, and they stormed into the playoffs with a 5-0 win over the Colorado Rapids. On today’s episode, Taylor sits down with Greg, a former Galaxy player who coached Toronto FC to MLS Cup glory in 2017, to talk about how he shifted the mindset of the team this season, how he built a successful roster, and the similarities between this Galaxy team and 2017’s Toronto side. Plus, Taylor defends his MLS MVP vote for Messi. Offside With Taylor Twellman is a Major League Soccer podcast, produced by Apple TV and Rain Delay Media.

D.C. United’s Christian Benteke grew up playing soccer in the streets of Belgium—where a nutmeg is worth more than a goal. As he got older, he refined a blend of skill and physicality that helped him net 23 regular-season goals this year, beating out Bouanga, Messi, and Suárez to capture the 2024 MLS Golden Boot. Although D.C. barely missed out on a playoff spot, they were in contention thanks to Benteke—who contributed to almost 60% of the club’s goals this season. On today’s episode, Taylor sits down with Benteke to talk about his soccer origins, the evolution of his game, and why learning new languages is so important on and off the pitch. Plus, Taylor breaks down the most dramatic Decision Day since 2014. Offside With Taylor Twellman is a Major League Soccer podcast, produced by Apple TV and Rain Delay Media.
