Celebrated Broadcasters Luis Omar Tapia and Rafa “El Alcalde” Hernández-Brito Team Up to Deliver the Latest in Global Soccer Action

DALLAS, Feb. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — reVolver Podcasts, the leading digital audio network, is kicking off the year with an electrifying new show: Fútbol Manía. Hosted by two of the most recognized voices in sports broadcasting, Luis Omar Tapia and Rafa “El Alcalde” Hernández-Brito, the podcast will offer an in-depth and passionate look at the latest in the world of soccer, covering teams, players, leagues, and tournaments from around the globe. Fútbol Manía will be available in a dynamic mix of Spanish and English, ensuring accessibility for a broad audience of soccer enthusiasts.

“With Fútbol Manía, we are bringing together two legendary voices in sports to deliver the ultimate soccer experience,” said Jack Hobbs, President of reVolver Podcasts. “Soccer’s popularity in the U.S. is at an all-time high, especially among Hispanic audiences. Luis Omar and Rafa are the perfect team to bring this passion to life for fans in both English and Spanish.”

Renowned sports journalist and commentator Luis Omar Tapia has made a lasting mark on soccer broadcasting. Best known for his time at Fox Sports and ESPN, Tapia has narrated some of the most significant matches in world soccer, including games from La Liga, Serie A, and the UEFA Champions League. His signature call—”Comienzan 90 minutos del deporte más hermoso del mundo”—has become a staple among soccer fans. Originally from Chile, Tapia’s deep-rooted passion for the game has been a defining aspect of his career, making him one of the most respected voices in soccer.

A veteran play-by-play announcer, Rafa Hernández-Brito, affectionately known as “El Alcalde,” is one of the most recognizable Spanish-language sports commentators in the U.S. He is the Bilingual Broadcaster for the Cleveland Cavaliers and has called games for the Cavs, Cleveland Guardians, Cleveland Browns, New Jersey and Brooklyn Nets, and Miami Dolphins. He was the Spanish voice of the NFL’s Thursday Night Football, Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football and multiple Super Bowls. His extensive experience also includes covering FIFA World Cups and major boxing and UFC events.  

Soccer is more than just a sport; it’s a cultural phenomenon, particularly among the Hispanic community in the U.S. With over 85 million soccer fans nationwide, the sport continues to thrive, driven by the growing influence of Hispanic audiences who make up nearly 70% of Major League Soccer’s fanbase. International tournaments, club competitions, and the upcoming FIFA World Cup in North America have further amplified soccer’s presence, making it one of the fastest-growing sports in the country.

Soccer fans can catch Fútbol Manía on reVolver Podcasts and major streaming platforms, where Luis Omar Tapia and Rafa Hernández-Brito will deliver exclusive insights, expert analysis, and entertaining discussions on everything happening in the soccer world.
