219: Between the Sticks #149

<div>It's good to talk, which is how we start this week's Between the Sticks.<br> <br> Aside from Rich offering up some motivational anecdotes over the past week, we read out a listener's email focusing on anxiety and nervousness in aspiring goalkeepers as young as ten years old.<br> <br> Additionally, we ponder a question which isn't often asked despite the regular use of its main subject: What and where exactly is "no man's land"?<br> <br> Edouard Mendy, Jordan Pickford and Dean Henderson were all found guilty of residing in such a place this weekend, so we figured it was worth delving into the origins surrounding this loathed location.<br> <br> Elsewhere, the FA Cup First Round throws up names not usually heard on the podcast, and Benfica B stopper Samuel Soares has put his hat in the ring for next year's Puskas Award. The 20-year-old netted an absolute piledriver against Trofense in Portugal's Segunda Liga.</div>
