The U.S. women's soccer team is looking for payback when it kicks off its Olympic campaign with what promises to be a tough challenge against Sweden on Wednesday, with memories still fresh of their quarterfinal defeat in the Rio Games five years ago.
Whether you're Team No Sleep or setting ALL the alarms, don't miss out on the action tomorrow from Tokyo!

CAPE TOWN - South Africa’s soccer team coach David Notoane said his side were caught in the eye of a coronavirus storm and likened their situation to waiting for a guillotine to fall ahead of their Tokyo Olympic Games opener against hosts Japan on Thursday.
The squad was severely depleted by COVID-19 infections and withdrawals before they left South Africa, and has now faced further setbacks after players Thabiso Monyane and Kamohelo Mahlatsi, along with video analyst Mario Masha, tested positive for the virus on arrival in Tokyo.
Si bien la sobredosis de fútbol nunca es un problema, es probable que ya estés un poquito aburrido de los torneos de selección y lo único que quieras ver ahorita sea al Pollo Briseño disputando un balón con el Colorado Aristeguieta, la voz de comando de Aldo Rocha o al Tuca Ferretti de malas pulgas en su nuevo equipo, el FC Juárez. Es probable también que no lo quieras reconocer, pero seamos sinceros: extrañas la Liga MX como cuando no tienes tu celular en las manos.
Paris Saint-Germain is the clear favorite for the best summer transfer window. The Parisian club hasn’t even remotely broken the bank as the potential PSG starting XI 2021 continues to get beefier.
According to Transfermarkt’s player market values, PSG has signed about $200 million worth of talent this summer. The club has only spent $83.6 million. The free transfers of Sergio Ramos, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Georginio Wijnaldum have come in clutch for PSG.
El miércoles 21 de julio comienza el fútbol en Tokio 2020 y el partido inaugural será entre Gran Bretaña y Chile, la selección femenina que te invitamos a adoptar durante los Juegos Olímpicos.
Sin el Tri Femenil en competencia, es fácil mirar para el lado y arrimarse al exitoso equipo de Estados Unidos. La vía Brasil tampoco es descabellada, pero se siente un poco cliché. Chile, en cambio, ofrece la recompensa emocional que solo un underdog, un equipo que tiene todo para perder, puede dar.
New Everton manager Rafa Benítez says he is hoping to forge a winning mentality at the Premier League club and convince fans that he is the right man for the job, despite facing a backlash over his appointment in recent weeks.
The Spaniard was hired by Everton on a three-year deal last month, but the move proved to be an unpopular one given Benítez's illustrious past with Liverpool, who he managed from 2004 to 2010.
Our glorious summer of soccer has reached its halfway point with both the Euros and Copa América consigned to history, but there’s still a lot to look forward to with the Gold Cup in full swing, the Olympics starting soon and then the beginning of the 2021-22 European club season.
If you’re looking for an August 2021 soccer calendar with every game on USA TV (including EPL, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, MLS, NWSL and other competitions) here’s your ultimate guide.
When it comes to the Summer Games, you can’t go wrong watching any event. They are all the ultimate culmination of dedication, sacrifice and mastery, amplified by the impossibly high stakes of a quadrennial competition. But some events captivate more than others with their sense of drama and skill — not that race walking doesn’t have those elements.
According to a recent study of my brain performed by me, these are the best events at Tokyo 2020 based on how much I found myself yelling at the television during Rio 2016.
When Brazil was preparing to take on Argentina in the Copa América final, it was widely acknowledged that while many Brazilians were tacitly supporting the Seleção, they’d also partially warmed to the idea of Lionel Messi finally reaping from what he’d painstakingly sown over the last 16 years with the Albiceleste — so much so that Neymar felt compelled to issue a stinging rebuke on Instagram that told those Brazilians to “go to hell.”
The FIFA 22 release date of Friday, October 1, 2021, is quickly approaching. So much so that the FIFA 22 official reveal trailer was released on Monday.
The new video is entirely focused on EA Sports’ new “HyperMotion” gameplay technology, which was adapted from the motion capture of 22 footballers playing together at a high intensity. Hence the direction of the trailer.
This will supposedly create “the most realistic, fluid and responsive football experience” ever, but we’ll be the judge of that when the time comes.
