Call It What You Want: A CBS Sports Golazo Network Podcast

Chris Wittyngham, Tony Meola, and Benny Feilhaber react to the news that Johnny Cardoso will require ankle surgery, and what it could mean for the makeup of the USMNT squad. With Christian Pulisic, Tanner Tessmann, and Tim Weah also dealing with late-season knocks, how worried should U.S. fans be about the mounting injury list?

The crew also breaks down what Mauricio Pochettino and his staff learned while scouting over the weekend, whether Jack McGlynn’s brace vs. LAFC earned him a closer look, and if Poch is making a mistake by limiting his pre-World Cup camp to just 26 players.

Plus, with Cardoso likely out of contention for the World Cup, the guys revisit their projected roster. If Pochettino switches back to a back four, how many defenders does he need to bring?

Producer’s Note: This episode ends with the crew's reaction to Atlético Madrid confirming that Johnny Cardoso suffered a high-grade ankle sprain. The news broke during the show, which is why the opening discussion around Atlético’s Champions League semifinal exit does not mention the injury or its potential World Cup implications.

Jimmy Conrad, Tony Meola, and (eventually) Charlie Davies discuss Liga MX's dominance over MLS in the Concacaf Champions Cup following Nashville and LAFC's elimination from the competition. Staying in Mexico, the guys react to Javier Aguirre threatening to leave Liga MX players off his World Cup squad unless they report for a month-long national team camp.

USMNT legend Clint Mathis joins to reflect on his 2002 World Cup heroics, almost joining Bayern Munich, and playing with a chip on his shoulder.

And the crew reacts to breaking news out of Spain as Atletico Madrid confirm Johnny Cardoso has suffered a high-grade ankle sprain.

With just 21 days until Mauricio Pochettino names his 26-man World Cup squad, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the latest performances shaping the roster race. Folarin Balogun and Ricardo Pepi keep finding the net, Sergiño Dest makes his long-awaited return from injury, and Alex Freeman continues to seize his moment with UCL-bound Villarreal. But it’s not all positive with Alex Zendejas’ form taking a poorly-timed dip.

As the countdown intensifies, the crew dives into the mindset of players on the bubble and debates whether the roster is already decided behind closed doors.

Then, former co-host Jesse Marsch returns to discuss Canada’s World Cup preparations, managing expectations, and what this moment means north of the border.
