Episode description

Host Erin Foley welcomes soccer icon Brandi Chastain! Chastain is a former USWNT player, coach, and sports broadcaster, best known for her iconic game-winning penalty kick in the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup final, which secured the championship for the U.S. and became a defining moment in sports history.

Chastain earned over 190 caps with the U.S. Women's National Team, winning two World Cup titles and two Olympic gold medals. She is also a co-founder and investor in the NWSL’s Bay FC. She was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame in 2016 and the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame in 2018.

Foley and Chastain discuss her love of golf, playing in celebrity tournaments, speaking tours, NWSL vs international leagues, celebrating small victories and who she would partner with on the Amazing Race. Enjoy!
