"The Magic of the Cup" is gone until next season as Chelsea took on Liverpool to contest the 131st FA Cup Final. Is Frank Lampard England's best player? Yes...at least in one person's mind. It may have taken over a year but Andy Carroll finally looks the business. When will we get some type of goal-line technology? Will Drogba ever stop scoring at Wembley? And we finish of the show with a little Wikipedia Game. |

We review Chelsea's incredible 2-2 win Barcelona. This is what the Champions League is supposed to look like. Drama, red cards, Bosingwa at center back, Drogba shooting from the halfway line, Messi losing his temper, this game had it all. It even had a goal from Senor Fernando Torres. We praise Ramires, heckle John Terry and wonder where Leo Messi and Barcelona go from here. |

The second El Clasico of the season saw Barcelona play host to Real Madrid, with everything still to play for in La Liga. Who bounced back from their midweek Champions League loss? Did the game finally live up to the hype? Would Madrid set out to press Barca? How much better than Victor Valdes is Iker Casillas? Do we want to see these two meet in the Champions League final? And did Daryl approve of Ronaldo's celebration? Also on the show: D.C. United throttle New York, the Richmond Kickers slow start continues, crazy things are happening in Italy, and as always we end with the Wikipedia Game. |

We break down the first legs of the Champions League Semi-Finals. How many players did Chelsea keep behind the ball? Are Real Madrid the fastest counterattacking team in the world? Can anyone actually take the game to Barcelona? How does Mario Gomez keep scoring goals? Will Drogba ever stop diving? Short answer no, long answer no. |

We review Liverpool's win over Everton in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley, including Andy Carroll's revenge over Stewart Robson and an Albert Ottati Rant Box special about why tall players can't be expected to win everything in the air. Also on the show: Jozy Altidore's goal for AZ and yet another round of the Wikipedia Game. |

Minus Daryl the TSS crew headed to the studio to breakdown two games from Europe with huge league title implications. In Germany, Borussia Dortmund hosted Bayern Munich in a top of the table clash that could all but settle the Budesliga. How bad was Arjen Robben's evening? Why would Dortmund fans throw bananas at Manuel Neuer? And can Dortmund challenge in Europe next season? While in Madrid, Atletico welcomed Real to the Vicente Calderon in a game the visitors needed to win in order to maintain their dwindling lead atop La Liga. Are Real collapsing? How good is Ronaldo? Did Falcao lose a ball in the air?

With the title race in the Barclays Premier League (thank you Fox Soccer) quickly coming to a head, we sit down to discuss the TSS game of the week, Arsenal v. Manchester City. Is Mancini too honest with the media? Could Arsenal ruin the blue half of Manchester's season? Would Josh sell Balotelli? Also on the show: United dive to the top, even throwback uniforms couldn't save the Richmond Kickers in their season opener, Klinsmann opens up (in his own way) to the US media, and as always some Wikipedia Game. |

We use the patented and highly scientific Total Soccer Show method to predict which of the four remaining teams--Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Chelsea or Real Madrid--will win the Champions League. Foolproof. |
