The 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup is here. More importantly, we’ve got a USWNT Women's World Cup drinking game for you and all your friends to play as the Americans attempt to defend their title in France this summer.
The Women’s World Cup going on in France right now is the biggest sporting event of the year. But don’t tell that to Texas high school football fans.
Because nothing is bigger than high school football in rural Texas, the sign for a middling high school football team showed up in Paris behind FOX’s studio in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower on Saturday.
Cat Whitehill probably shouldn’t announce again this Women’s World Cup.
The FOX commentator made multiple racist remarks when calling Nigeria’s 3-0 loss to Germany in the round of 16 on FS1, apparently clueless as to the offensive nature of her words.
It did not go unnoticed.
Stop doing racial stereotypes about African teams ffs!!!

For all the crap we put up during the 2018 World Cup from FOX, the U.S. broadcaster is doing better this time around for the 2019 Women’s World Cup. FOX seems to give a damn now that the U.S. is involved, and the broadcasts have improved because of it.
But there remains a group that would rather not listen to JP Dellacamera describe every single second of action when the USWNT plays.
For those viewers, another option has cropped up for how to watch USWNT vs Spain on Monday.
Samantha Bee is the latest late-night TV host to join the debate on equal pay for men’s and women’s soccer players.
On Wednesday night’s episode of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, the eponymous host used her final segment (above) to make a quick argument that the USWNT should be paid equal to or better than the USMNT, which currently is not the case.
Did the U.S. women’s national team go too far in its record-setting 13-0 humiliation of Thailand on Tuesday in the Women’s World Cup?
Many have suggested as much, saying the U.S. players shouldn’t have celebrated scoring goals at the highest level of their sport.
The U.S. women’s national team put a beatdown of historic proportions on Thailand on Tuesday. FOX and Telemundo reaped the benefits with huge USWNT vs Thailand TV ratings.
In 2018, for the first time ever, FOX owned the U.S. broadcast rights to the men’s World Cup.
We hated it.
This year, for the second time ever, FOX owns the Women’s World Cup U.S. TV rights.
We almost hate to admit it, but FOX is doing a great job.
Over six million UK viewers tuned in to watch the opening match of Group D at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup between rivals England and Scotland on Sunday, the highest viewership ever for a women's soccer game in the United Kingdom.
It pains me to say that my screenplay for a soccer-focused Disney Channel original film — “The Luck of the Irish II: Roy Keane’s Revenge” — has been overlooked in favor of Back of the Net, but that’s life. It’s still satisfying to know we’ve got a soccer movie coming to the Disney Channel.
On Saturday, June 15 at 8:00 pm, Back of the Net will debut on Disney Channel and DisneyNOW. Here’s the synopsis, which is everything you’d expect from an absolute classic:
