  "textContent": "Niko Moreno joins special guest host Noah Riffe of Lobbing Scorchers to talk about the Sounders' 3-1 win versus Tigres that was a positive result but not enough to move on to the next Concacaf Champions Cup round. The two chat about the grass installed for the World Cup at Lumen Field and how it held up in two matches with some of the wildest PNW weather we’ve had. The guys took a look ahead to the weekend’s MLS matchup against St Louis City SC and touched on a report that claims Seattle held back communications with Obed Vargas regarding some youth national team callups.\n\n|\n---\n\n# What We Learned This Week: The Orca Boys beat Tigres at home but fail to move on in CCC and preview of St. Louis City SC\n\nListen to the episode: Click here\n| Available on:\n---\nThis player is still in beta, there may be some bugs.\n\nWhat We Learned This Week: The Orca Boys beat Tigres at home but fail to move on in CCC and preview of St. Louis City SC\n\nAvailable on: __________\n\n_Follow Niko Moreno on_  BlueSky_and_  YouTube_.
