Super Bowl Recap, Liverpool’s FA Cup SHOCK & Brad Friedel Joins! | It’s Called Soccer EP 20

In this episode of It’s Called Soccer, Rebecca Lowe and Jamie Carragher dive into the biggest football and Super Bowl stories of the week, with USMNT legend Brad Friedel joining the show from Istanbul!

We kick things off with Super Bowl LVIII, breaking down the Philadelphia Eagles' huge win and why Taylor Swift was booed at the stadium. Jamie gets a Super Bowl crash course, and Rebecca explains why the event brings all of America to a standstill.

Next up, we discuss Liverpool’s FA Cup disaster against Plymouth Argyle. Did Arne Slot make the right lineup choices? And how does this impact Liverpool’s title push ahead of the massive Merseyside Derby against Everton? Jamie explains why this could be the biggest game of the Premier League season.

Then, we turn our focus to Alexander Isak, with Jamie declaring him one of the best attackers in the world. Could he move to Arsenal, Liverpool, or even Real Madrid? And how will he match up against Virgil van Dijk in the Carabao Cup Final?

We also break down the crisis at Tottenham—is Ange Postecoglou under pressure? Why do Spurs always seem to fall short in big moments? And what’s next for Chelsea after their latest collapse?

Finally, we welcome USMNT goalkeeping legend Brad Friedel, who shares his thoughts on American goalkeepers struggling in Europe, his early days at Liverpool, and his time as a Premier League veteran. Plus, he looks ahead to the 2026 World Cup on home soil!
