Richmond Kickers Weekly: Analyzing the Lansing ...
Daryl and Taylor break down Richmond's dramatic draw with Lansing Ignite. There was a stoppage time screamer of an equalizer... but why did the Kickers find themselves in that position in the first place? D&T take a look at what's working for Richmond and what still needs to improve. After that, Taylor talks to Bobby Warshaw, who was the color commentator for the Kickers' 6-2 win over Virginia United in the US Open Cup. Bobby talks players that impressed, tactical conundrums, and (paraphrasing) why short corners are good and long corners are dumb. Highlights!
