A club on the brink, a season-long comeback and one spectacular last-minute goal; during the past six months, Coventry United Ladies have endured a lifetime's worth of drama.
In mid-January, Coventry was 10 points below the relegation line in the FA Women's Championship — England's second tier — the result of a struggle that began before a single match was played.
Defending NWSL champion Washington Spirit opened its 2022 season Sunday with a thrilling 2-1 victory over OL Reign at Audi Field.

The win moved Spurs a point above North London rivals Arsenal into fourth place in the Premier League, at least for a few hours, with the Gunners at West Ham United later on Sunday.
Ha sido un semestre difícil para Vincent Janssen, uno de los jugadores mejor pagados en la Liga MX. El Toro hasta la semana pasada no registraba goles en todo el Clausura 2022 y era uno de los punching balls favoritos para los fanáticos, tanto propios como ajenos. La falta de puntería era tan extrema que hace unos días, ante Pachuca, salió de la cancha entre lágrimas y pifias del público.
Jairo Torres se integra al Chicago Fire de la MLS este 1 de mayo. Antes de viajar a Estados Unidos, sin embargo, el futbolista jugó su último partido con Atlas, el equipo de toda su vida.

La noche comenzó con la entrega de una placa conmemorativa a Torres, quien llegó a las fuerzas básicas del Atlas cuando tenía apenas nueve años.
