USWNT Changes Worked, But More Finishing Needed Against Germany

USWNT Puts In Their Best WWC Performance In Quarterfinal Win

After a lackluster performance in their Round of 16 game against Colombia, the USWNT rebounded by putting in a pretty dominating performance against China in the Quarterfinals.

Who’s the Real Favorite in the Women’s World Cup?

Blame it on the artificial turf, blame it on the location, blame it on the increased investment by many more countries than in previous years but there doesn’t seem to be a good to honest favorite to win the Women’s World Cup.

The USWNT remain in the lead of Group D but they are far from safe as they drew Sweden 0-0 tonight. I’m not going to lie, the game wasn’t the most entertaining game of the World Cup, it was pretty bad. Hopefully those who watched for the first time since it was on regular FOX […]
