🇹🇷 gave the #USMNT a reminder about shape, individual responsibility within the collective, and defending principles don’t change just because you win your 1st 2 games.
🇧🇦 will be so strong tactically and committed to frustrating your attack that you may be left exposed in the wrong moments.
Wednesday is what it’s all about. LFG!!
Could not agree more. Whether you like Clark or not, one thing you have to say is that this is f’ing bullshit and Thomas should be suspended for that kind of dumb ass behavior.
Writing a column for @usatodaysports this afternoon on this pivotal moment in the WNBA. The physical attacks on Caitlin Clark; the attempts by some to minimize her importance and value by elevating the perceived importance and value of other players; the jealousy; the hypocrisy.
I think Poch should make wholesale changes on Thursday. No reason to risk anything. The player I most want to see get a chance vs. Türkiye is Alex Zendejas.
Of all these, there’s not a single one that leaves me in awe better than scoring 91 goals in a calendar year.
That’s what some strikers score in 10 years.
As ridiculously good and prolific Mbappe, Haaland, Ronaldo, Kane and Luis Suarez are, none of them has reached the 70 mark. I stand to be corrected.
I can never understand how anyone will score 91 goals in a year at professional level. Elite, top 1% professional football and he scored 91 goals.
It’s ridiculous. It is.
Lionel Messi: 18 years and 357 days old
Lamine Yamal: 18 years and 343 days old
Lamine Yamal scored his first World Cup goal at just 14 days younger than Messi was when he scored his first 😮
"I was emotional, man, just looking out and seeing how loud it was, how American it was, how jacked up this crowd was from the very first minute – it was pretty awesome to see." 🇺🇸
@stuholden with more on the scenes from the booth, and what felt different about this game. #WCNOW
American soccer culture has to be built around American culture. Not European culture. Stuff like this is infinitely cooler and more authentic than stealing songs and customs from British or Dutch fans.
Americans want to feel American.
Lionel Messi has scored more World Cup goals after turning 35 (10) than the following players in their entire careers:
-Cristiano Ronaldo
-Thierry Henry
-Maradona
-Rivaldo
-Neymar
-Harry Kane
Absolutely insane 🤯🐐
I love how the entire world finally got a front-row seat to see Wemby for what he is: arrogant, cocky, dirty, and nowhere near as untouchable as people made him out to be.
Had a generational whistle all series and still choked.
