Barcelona And US Soccer Are Talking About NWSL Expansion

In the ever-evolving world that is US Soccer expansion, attraction to the game is just as important as on the field product at the moment.

You’d be called a child and laughed off the pitch, your ambitious toe punt looking nothing like a clean hit off the laces or a swerving effort with the instep.
