189. The Double Pivot Problem | Charlotte FC 0 – New England Revolution 1

It was better. At least we can say that.

Charlotte FC played well enough to deserve a point against the Revolution, but a lack of finishing and a questionable penalty in stoppage time doomed the Crown to a 1-0 loss.

Matt and Corey take you through the match, highlighting the positives while being realistic about the things that still aren't quite clicking. They discuss:

• The lack of finishing in two clear-cut scoring opportunities during the first half.
• CLTFC's solid defensive performance against a good New England attack.
• The handball call that drew the game-winning penalty late in stoppage time. What even is a handball?
• The absolutely ridiculous yellow card given to Ashley Westwood for "simulation."
• The importance of this stretch of home matches in May.
• And Matt breaks down why the double pivot seems to be causing some of Charlotte FC's issues this season.
