No Messi. No goals. No major things to get excited about after Charlotte FC's 0-0 draw with Inter Miami Saturday night at The Bank.

Matt, David and Corey return this week to discuss:

• Four yellow cards in four matches for Zaha.
• Why the attack struggled against a heavily rotated Miami side. (We have screenshots again!)
• Why is Abada still starting?
• And we answer your questions, including one about our favorite soccer movie.

And apparently Matt played soccer against The Avett Brothers?
