It comes home only once a year—twice if we're lucky—and each time, the "Hell Is Real" derby fails to disappoint. Ohio's biggest soccer rivalry returns to the confines of TQL Stadium Saturday evening. When FC Cincinnati and Columbus Crew clash for possession of the soul of Ohio, pride is on the line. However, the perspective of the radio booth may paint a different picture—how does the voice of The Crew see this rivalry? We spend some time with Chris Doran , the play-by-play broadcaster for Columbus Crew on 105.7 FM , to talk about the evolution of the Crew and "Hell Is Real". What was once a team that shied away from investment in Columbus soccer has become a squad that prioritizes success in the face of their younger brother. How does Chris see Saturday's crucial matchup pan out, and what do the Crew need to do to escape the Queen City with three points?
