Episode Notes

Fresh off announcing her retirement, Ali Riley joins Attacking Third for the full show! The Angel City and New Zealand legend reflects on the decision to hang up her boots, what’s next, her bond with co-host Kelley O’Hara, and the legacy she leaves after a trailblazing career. Then, Ali sticks around as she, Kelley, and Darian Jenkins break down the new-look Women’s Champions League: league phase explained, heavyweight clashes like Arsenal vs. Lyon and Barcelona vs. Bayern, and which Americans could shine brightest on Europe’s biggest stage.
