With the atmosphere of over 40,000 people in the Oakland Coliseum, we saw big saves, missed chances, a midfield battle that Japan won, and ultimately this game was a love letter to international soccer in the Bay Area ahead of the World Cup. ivaorn.medium.com/mexico-0-0-j...
Mexico 0–0 Japan: Everything but the Goals at Oakland Coliseum
Growing up in a Mexican family in the East Bay, it felt like the star aligned when this friendly was announced to take place in Oakland…

If Nigeria were to fail to qualify, Victor Osimhen would be near the top of the list of best players not at the World Cup next summer. He played a role in ensuring Nigeria get at least one step closer.

I’m hearing the Supreme Court declined to re-examine the ruling that legalized same-sex marriage.

Shout out to my fellow alphabet mafia 🥹 a small win for us. 🩷🏳️‍🌈

And fuck Kim Davis. Weird hoe.

Honestly never thought I’d see Chicharito score again for Chivas and this one seals a 4-2 win

Richarlison from missing a penalty against Copenhagen to scoring a banger against Manchester United.

My picks to advance out of the #MLSCupPlayoffs Round 1 Game 3s: New York City, Seattle Sounders, Cincinnati, Nashville, and San Diego. Sure, 3 out of 5 road teams. Maximum chaos, why not?

Raiders left so many points on the field you’d need a calculator

It wouldn’t be a Raiders game without a punting highlight

Ousseni Bouda remains a part of Burkina Faso’s plans for the 2030 World Cup, with time on his side. They were so close to being involved in the playoff games next week. #SanJoseEarthquakes

I want to be real clear that the actions that police take, the threat they pose, especially to black men, is why Marshawn Kneeland and Kyren Lacy are dead. I worked in police reform and we'd IMPLORE cops to stop chases bc they're intimidating af & racist & just all around bad & they will not.
Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland dies at 24
Marshawn Kneeland, a defensive end in his second year with the Dallas Cowboys, died at 24, his agent confirmed.

Devastating news. Rest in peace Marshawn Kneeland and my thoughts are with his families and loved ones.

In keeping with this theme, I reached out to KC Current to see if they would be commenting on the issues below. They will not be issuing a separate statement outside of the one already issued by the league earlier today.
I have reached out to the Washington Spirit comms for comment on the recent comments from Elizabeth Eddy and Jennifer Sey.

Don’t know that i will hear back today but will keep you all posted if and when i do get a comment from them.
