For the third time in seven seasons, Minnesota United's home opener was played in snow. It wasn't nearly as cold as the infamous World Cup qualifier between the USMNT and Honduras at Allianz Field in February of last year, but Saturday's 30-degree weather and continuous flurries made for a sticky layer of snow outside of the well-maintained 18-yard boxes.
For the first time in history the National Women’s Soccer League will be available on EA Sports’ FIFA video game.
On Wednesday, March 15, FIFA 23 will add the NWSL to the game. EA Sports gave fans a little teaser Friday by releasing the statistics for each player.
If you’re curious about the highest rated NWSL players on FIFA, then you’ve come to the right place. Here are the top 10.
1 Alex Morgan 90 (San Diego Wave)
2. Debinha 88 (Kansas City Current)
3. Sophia Smith 87 (Portland Thorns)
International Women’s Day was on Wednesday and the world celebrated by recognizing loved ones and highlighting the accomplishments of extraordinary women. Manchester City and Norweigian star Erling Haaland had a much different and interesting way to celebrate women on Wednesday.
There were several different routes Haaland could have chosen. Perhaps he wanted to thank his mom for everything she’s done for him and celebrate her career as a Norwegian heptathlon champion.
Back in August of 2013, NBC Sports got American viewers fired up for the 2013-14 Premier League season with a surreal piece of absurdist humor that landed well: Jason Sudeikis as the manager of Tottenham Hotspur in the "An American Coach in London" ad.
It's still entirely unbelievable that 10 years later that character has spawned a comedy-drama TV series thats first season received 20 nominations at the 73rd Emmy Awards before its second season earned 20 nominations at the 74th Emmy Awards.
When asked to account for how Liverpool went from "the end of an era" to reaching a new epoch in the space of just 90 minutes on Sunday, manager Jürgen Klopp simply said "the main difference is now we have all the players available."
Manchester City sealed an important home victory against fifth-placed Newcastle United in yet another matchday of the Premier League. A pair of Phil Foden and Bernando Silva goals – both worthy of replays – sealed the three points for the Citizens.
Chelsea did the unthinkable on Saturday and actually won a game. The Blues defeated Leeds United 1-0 with center back Wesley Fofana scoring the game’s lone goal.
Fofana had another highlight — or lowlight in this case — during the game when he took out a steward on the sideline after receiving a shove from Leeds forward Wilfried Gnoto.
If you're a Liverpool or Chelsea supporter disappointed with the season, just remember it could always be a lot, lot worse — you could be a Southampton fan.
The Saints are at the bottom of the Premier League table with only 18 points from 24 matches. They had Nathan Jones as manager for three months. They somehow managed to reach the Carabao Cup semifinals before losing to Newcastle, but the lasting memory there is Jacob Murphy waving off Duje Ćaleta-Car after the defender's red card.
When you think of the greatest solo dribbling performances in soccer Diego Maradona’s “Goal of the Century” and some of Lionel Messi’s goals come to mind. The best dribbling we’ve seen so far in the 2022-23 season has come from the most unlikely of sources.
Las actuaciones de Santiago Giménez en la Eredivisie de los Países Bajos no han pasado inadvertidas. Bebote enamora y el furor que causan sus goles ha llevado a un fan neerlandés a crear una canción especial para el delantero mexicano.
¡En español!
El hombre detrás del canto es Piebe-Guido van den Berg, quien subió a redes sociales un cover de la canción "Feliz Navidad" de José Feliciano para expresar el impacto que ha causado Giménez en la liga local con un par de versos completamente en español.
