Every Street United Episode 8 Review

"Final Match"

Episode

This is it, the final match in the first season of Every Street United where the teams that we have watched train and come to Rio face off in intense street soccer. It's almost strange that these eight weeks have passed so quickly and I'm glad to finally see this epic match as they really did go all in at each other. With the chance of a lifetime on the line I expected to see some desire, though the teams were quite aggressive at one another in this final with some rough tackles that you would never see on the professional pitch. There was of course some drama as injuries and big plays did occur during the final and the coaches of course had to make changes to accompany this. This entire episode was focused on the final game as anticipated last week which was great, though it still had some good emotion put into it. The match itself felt very one-sided at the start to my prediction and then evened, but by the games end the players seemed to be pulling off their best almost cocky moves and it was easy to see who had won. There was of course crazy plays done by both sides with some amazing moves shown off.

The Conclusion

Every Street United was a blast to watch even though I'm not a huge fan of the sport and it was placed at a great time surrounding the World Cup which I watched a bit of. I was glad to see my team of choice perform greatly with their skills at the end and that match was a great level of aggressive play. I'd like to see perhaps and ending thing on the internet at some point to see if any of the players did well in the tryouts and definitely would enjoy another season with new players as this was a joy to watch each week. I hope with the changes at Microsoft we still see some focus on shows like this as it provides a great other side to the console. Hope you enjoyed the reviews and check back for future Xbox Original programming coverage. Oh and one more thing, go Nabil!
