Coffee & Valkyries, Episode 13: The One With Michelle Betos & Jasmyne Spencer

We know Seattle Reign FC beat Houston Dash 3-1 this past Saturday. It was a great display of the team’s character to overcome the early goal deficit and then add on two more goals with authority like they did. Goalkeeper Michelle Betos and forward Jasmyne Spencer joined us for the latest episode to talk about Saturday’s match, the World Cup semi-finals, the red card Betos got in a Norwegian league game last season, and just how important a certain TV show is to Spencer. Here’s what else you’ll find out in this episode:

Michelle Betos and Jasmyne Spencer are two players that joined Seattle in the offseason. For goalkeeper Betos, it was a return to not only the NWSL but her first team in the league. For Spencer, the forward spent the last two seasons at Orlando Pride. Both are veterans of the league, but are still very much students of the game and continue to learn. Fresh off the team’s victory this past Saturday against Houston Dash, find out why the two feel the team as a whole is starting to put the pieces together as the push for the NWSL Playoffs is just right around the corner. However, a mid-week encounter against Utah Royals FC is first, and the duo share what they’ll need to do to get the win. We also ask them the pirates or ninjas question, the magic lamp question, and more.
