Episode 130 – New York Red Bulls II goalkeeper Wallis Lapsley
Joining the show this week is Wallis Lapsley, goalkeeper of the New York Red Bulls II. He started his first professional match last weekend. He talks about his journey to the professional life, and what he is looking forward to this season.
We also talk about the disappointing start to the season for the ‘Montclair Minors’. Despite a large number of MLS loanees, the young kids struggled against a more experienced Tampa Bay Rowdies squad. NYRBII managed just two shots on target, well below last seasons expectations.
Is this just a slow start for the squad? Is the shortened preseason to blame? Or is a mysterious supernatural force at work? Spoiler alert, it isn’t the last one. This week we tackle the positives and negatives of the opening day loss, and look at the squad as a whole after their debut.
