Welcome to Football America's The Podcast.

On today's show, we've got Hercules Gomez, Mauricio Pedrosa, and Ale Moreno.

And we're talking about the Nations League Final Four plus Sergio Ramos' latest red card and no Leo

Messi for Argentina's upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Uruguay and Brazil. But first,

the Concaf Nations League semifinals are upon us, the USA in Action, Canada, Mexico, as well as Panama,

and that is exactly where we are going to start.

Herc, walk us through your final four power rankings.

Who's coming in hot?

Well, this is more addition by subtraction.

I mean, number four, Panama, I think we would all agree the weakest player pool of the bunch.

And Thomas Christensen's a very good

coach but the results haven't been there as of late.

Barzanas, their team captain, won't be available.

Adalberto Carresquilla, he's been Jekyll and High for Fumas, has been very irregular this season.

The weakest player pool right there.

Mexico, I mean, yes, convincing in the second leg against Honduras.

In the first leg, a lot of doubts. It's a team that there's just so many question marks over.

Javier Aguirre himself, a lot of questions that we will go over with the number nine, who will be that number nine?

Defensive issues as well, et cetera, et cetera. And the U.S, well, same thing. Who's going to be the number nine? Matt Turner doesn't play

when he plays. He has done well, but it's not been regular. Marisa Pochitino maybe has a little bit more

doubts than Jesse Marsh. And I know Jesse Marsh doesn't have the player pool of the U.S.

men's nationally, but I could make a case that arguably he's got more bigger profile players, impactful players.
