S3 Ep3: Waking the Red Weekly - Maria Papadakis
\u201cAmericans forget we\u2019re Canadian\u201d: MLS is Back...in crazy heat and at strange game times.\n
\n\nIn another action packed show of Waking the Reds Weekly, hosts Mitchell Tierney, Jeffrey P. Nesker and Michael Singh break down all the talking points from TFC\u2019s disappointing draw in Orlando and look ahead to Thursday's clash against Montreal Impact.\n
\n\nGuest Maria Papadakis gave her views on the DC game, arguing that adjustment time will be needed for every team in the competition, and highlighting TFC\u2019s strong first half as a sign of things to come.\n
\n\nThe crew discussed Ayo Akinola\u2019s standout performance - cementing his status as a natural number 9 - and how TFC\u2019s overall attacking plan seemed lacking on the day.\n
\n\nWhile tribute is paid to Thierry Henry\u2019s powerful Black Lives Matter statement - taking the knee for a full 8 minutes and 46 seconds at the start of Montreal\u2019s first game of the tournament.
