Making her 110th appearance for Australia, captain Sam Kerr scored her 58th and 59th goals for the Matildas on Tuesday in a 3-1 friendly victory over New Zealand in front of over 13,000 in Canberra.
Australia raced to a three-goal advantage after 32 minutes with Kerr registering a brace. The first, in the 15th minute, was a towering header off Steph Catley's corner kick.
Rafael Soriano has entered the Douchebag Hall Of Fame for assaulting a referee then claiming the ref was milking it “because she’s a woman.” The Desportiva Ferrovíaria coach was red carded then fired after the match.
Soriano came onto the pitch to argue a call at the start of halftime during a fifth-tier Campeonato Capixava match against Nova Venecia on Sunday in Espirito Santo, Brazil. He left as a reviled asshole, headbutting assistant referee Marcielly Netto in the nose.
Pese a haber cedido el trono de la Liga MX a Monterrey, Tigres se mantiene como el mejor equipo mexicano femenil en el ránking de la Federación Internacional de Historia y Estadística del Fútbol, IFFHS.
La lista considera el rendimiento de los equipos en ligas locales e internacionales y en este caso consideró el período entre el 1 de abril de 2021 y el 31 de marzo de 2022 para la medición.
The USWNT is the most dominant force in women’s soccer history. The U.S. has never been ranked lower than second in the world and has won more World Cups and Olympics than it’s lost. But if there’s one thing the players love more than winning, it’s dogs.
It’s National Pet Day, apparently, and I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better group of people to celebrate with than the USWNT.
No había dudas de que la selección de México femenil le ganaría a Anguila ni tampoco de que el marcador sería amplio. La pregunta era cuántos goles el Tri terminaría anotándole al combinado caribeño, en un duelo parte del camino al Mundial de Australia y Nueva Zelandia 2023.
Al final, los goles fueron 11. Sí, el Tri ganó 0-11 y de paso firmó la goleada más grande de su historia en partidos oficiales. ¡11! Y sin siquiera usar a todas sus titulares.
The USWNT most likely wasn’t thrilled on having to settle with 48th ranked Uzbekistan as the opponent for two April friendlies. The first of those two games was played on Saturday and the U.S. expectedly thrashed the minnows 9-1.
With many of the USWNT veterans like Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan and Christen Press not selected for the roster it would seem these friendlies are a last chance shot for some of the youngsters to prove themselves and make the cut for July’s Concacaf W Championship. That competition will also serve as World Cup and Olympic qualifying.
Teams from Liga MX, Major League Soccer and the National Women's Soccer League and others have formed a coalition to eliminate homophobia from soccer, the group said on Friday.
CBS broadcast the Challenge Cup match between expansion clubs San Diego Wave FC and Angel City FC on Saturday, putting the NWSL front and center. The fans followed, with nearly half a million viewers tuning in for the first Challenge Cup match on TV in 2022. The latest NWSL TV ratings, when the games are put on CBS and not hidden on Paramount+, are impressive, far more so than MLS TV ratings in 2022.
In February, we learned USWNT stalwart Julie Ertz wouldn’t play in the NWSL in 2022. On April 4, we learned why. Julie Ertz is pregnant.
Ertz announced she is pregnant on social media on Monday, saying she and husband Zach Ertz, a professional American football player, are “adding to our starting lineup.”
After setting the women's soccer attendance record of 91,553 last Wednesday in a thrilling Champions League quarterfinal victory over eternal rival Real Madrid, Barcelona is aiming for a similar turnout Friday, April 22, when the club hosts Wolfsburg in their semifinal first leg.
