Max + Vince Podcast #145 | Getting Smarter About Goalkeeping With Oka Nikolov

The Max + Vince Podcast returns after LAFC's busy stretch of three matches in eight days. Max and Vince start right into what happened against San Jose. With all the games piling up and the hot temperatures, Steve Cherundolo rotated his squad. Carlos Vela, Ilie Sanchez, Gareth Bale, and Jose Cifuentes all began the match on the bench. And despite a rough start, LAFC still had chances to get something from the match. Max and Vince break it all down for you before moving on to talk about the importance of the upcoming trip to Austin FC. Is this a preview of the Western Conference final? Surely, it has Supporters' Shield and playoff implications. After that, the guys welcome LAFC goalkeepers coach Oka Nikolov to the show. Oka was a stalwart with Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga before coming to the states to play in MLS and the NASL. Max and Vince ask Oka about the evolution of goalkeeping and how he works with the LAFC keepers. They also get into what brought Oka to LA and how he works with the rest of the coaches on the staff.
