Tobin Heath Provides Masterful Assist In Manchester United Debut

Arsenal climbed back to the top of the FA Women's Super League with a hard-fought 3-1 win over bottom side Bristol City, while Fran Kirby's early headed goal gave champions Chelsea a narrow 1-0 win over Birmingham City on Sunday.

Arsenal went behind to an Abi Harrison effort after six minutes, but goals either side of halftime by Jordan Nobbs and Caitlin Foord put them back in the driving seat, with Dutch ace Vivianne Miedema adding a third five minutes from full time.

15-Year-Old Scores Absurd Free Kick From 30 Yards Out To Seal Liga MX Femenil Match

Having a 15-year-old as a senior team’s designated free kick taker is a bold and risky move. After seeing this incredible Fátima Servín goal, the decision is clear. 

Querétaro Femenil was leading 1-0 in the 74th minute during a Liga MX Femenil match when the team was awarded a free kick from a considerable distance. Neither the situation nor difficulty of the shot fazed Servín, who delivered one the best strikes you will ever see.

An NWSL Role Player Turned Into Lionel Messi Today In Norway

The Houston Dash midfielder didn’t go on loan to a well-known club in England like Tobin Heath and Christen Press (Manchester United), Rose Lavelle and Sam Mewis (Man City) and Alex Morgan (Tottenham).

The Gunners had won their first three matches of the season by a combined 19-2, including a 4-0 rout of Alex Morgan’s Tottenham on Saturday. 

Megan Rapinoe Wrote A Book And It’s Coming Out Soon

While Megan Rapinoe continues her fight for equal pay for the USWNT, she’s also been hard at work on side hustles to capitalize on her own self-earned fame outside of soccer. From hosting the ESPYs to interviewing presidential candidates, the former Best FIFA Women’s Player has kept busy during the pandemic, despite not having taken the field since March.

Top 5 Reasons Tearing Your ACL Sucks

If there is one thing that absolutely sucks about playing soccer or any sport, it is the risk of getting injured. Every time you step on the field there is a chance you can get hurt. Whether it is a pulled muscle, sprained ankle, concussion or, the worst of all, a torn ACL, getting injured is never ideal for anyone. Every injury is tough, but tearing your ACL has got to be one of the most common and horrible injuries that could happen. It may be a biased opinion since I have experienced an ACL tear, but I would take a rolled ankle over hearing that pop any day.
