Outrageous Kyle Walker Goal-Line Clearance Allows City To Defeat Liverpool On Penalties

As Arsenal and Manchester United’s recent dominance of the FA Community Shield shows (the two clubs had combined to win the event on five of the past six occasions prior to today’s match), England’s annual curtain-raiser is a sign of very little to come in the season ahead. 

Ajax Welcomes Edson Álvarez With Video That Includes Hilarious Arjen Robben Dig

After selling 19-year-old field general Matthijs de Ligt to Juventus for nearly $85 million, Ajax immediately found a promising replacement in 21-year-old Mexican defender Edson Álvarez.

From Weak Link To Best Ever: The USWNT’s Defense Was The Surprise Package Of The Tournament

Heading into the 2019 Women’s World Cup, the consensus was that the USWNT would ship its fair share of goals but overcome that deficiency by winning matches in barnstorming fashion — maybe a 4-2 here, a 5-3 there.
