Inside the 18 Goalkeeper Podcast | USWNT Goalkeeper Review: Claudia Dickey vs Phallon Tullis-Joyce - Which Goalkeeper Stood Out This International Window? Plus Being Effective in Cross Management Rather Than Trying To Win Every Cross. The US Women's National Soccer Team (USWNT) has completed their international window with two action-packed matches against World Champions Spain, and we are joined by The Keeper Institute's (TKI) Tori Corsaro to break down how effective the two USWNT Goalkeepers (Claudia Dickey and Phallon Tullis-Joyce) were handling crosses and affecting the dangerous areas inside the 18. Then we break down several fantastic cross management situations from NCAA Soccer. We discuss the footwork, starting position, and final actions that lead to success for these young goalkeepers on the pitch. We finish the show with a discussion about what to do when the intent doesn't match the execution in possession and distribution or clearance actions, by framing the conversation around the unfortunate back-pass incident involving Manchester United's Phallon Tullis-Joyce against Spain in a 2-2 draw. At The Union GK, we know goalkeeping is simply the vehicle; elite life skills, drive, and personal resilience are the definitive result.

USMNT GK Depth Pool Review: Diego Kochen Vs Brian Schwake - Which Goalkeeper Stood Out This International Window? Plus How To Handle Negative GK Coaching Comments The US Men's National Soccer Team has completed their 4 game international window, and as all goalkeepers head back to their respective club teams, we dive deep into the 4 goalkeepers in camp. We share our insights into their distribution metrics, expected goals (xG) profiles, and athletic profiles to evaluate who deserves a call up for the Nations League Quarterfinal in November. Then we break down Diego Kochen's fantastic tip save vs Mexico in his 1st ever USMNT start, analyzing why dropping for depth and not being aggressive on a looping half volley was the right tactical play. We also breakdown Brian Schwake's awkward save off the post against Canada and discuss why pure improvisation when your body shape and positioning may not be optimal is a critical developmental milestone inside the 18. Finally, we look at the social media comments regarding Chris Brady's error vs Chile, how to maintain proper coaching boundary lines on public social channels, and why this should be part of a grassroots goalkeeper license. Plus, a quick preview of our upcoming episode with The Keeper Institute and Point Blank Podcast Host Tori Corsaro.

USMNT GK Alumni Jon Busch & Former MLS GK Eric Klenofsky: The State of the Goalkeeper Union In America We are halfway through the USMNT's 4-game international break. With our arch-rivals Mexico on the horizon, former USMNT GK Jon Busch and Former MLS GK Eric Klenofsky join the panel to break down the 4 goalkeepers in this camp's pool. First, we discuss the intense experiences of heading into a national team camp, how to earn respect from veterans, and how to showcase that you belong at the elite level. Then we breakdown Chris Brady's performance in the recent match against Chile, including a deep tactical analysis of the goal allowed on a botched box-out during a corner kick sequence. Then we speak big picture on the state of the goalkeeping union in the United States. Are we working together, or are we operating on isolated islands? What can the USSF do to assist youth club coaches? We also debate what you truly learn at coaching courses after hours versus the actual official sessions. Michael then shares an authentic story of dealing with 34 goalkeepers at one time and how he solved the problem. We wrap up the pod with our hopes for 2027 resources to assist young goalkeeper coaches.
