The shadowy overcast of a historic 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup elimination has lingered around the U.S. women's national team for over half a year now as they've looked to turn the page on their historically disappointing elimination to Sweden in the round of 16. Over the last seven months, there have been some positive moments, wins, and goals scored since they played in the global tournament, but there hasn't quite been that feeling of closure, of truly moving on from the summer's disaster. Years of buildup towards that World Cup were over, gone in a digitized snapshot, measuring their tournament elimination by a literal millimeter. Missed penalty kicks didn't help their case. Iconic players have since retired and a new incoming manager, Chelsea FC's Emma Hayes, is on the way. The 2024 W Concacaf W Gold Cup is the first tournament post-World Cup for the program in its first steps into...

Long before Jurgen Klopp announced his shock decision to step down as Liverpool manager in the summer of 2024, the German head coach was already pondering his side's legacy. "In 20 years if you talk about this team," Klopp mused, "I would not be surprised if people would say: 'Yes they were good but they should have won more'." Liverpool would certainly have another couple of Premier League trophies had it not been for a record-shattering Manchester City but Pep Guardiola's side cannot be solely to blame for the size of Klopp's trophy cabinet. Here's a look at Klopp's decidedly mixed record in finals over the years.

Arda Güler was finally able to make his debut in La Liga with Real Madrid . He did so in the 1-2 win against Las Palmas , coming on with just under ten minutes to go, although the eight minutes of added time added on by the fourth official meant he was on the pitch for almost 20 minutes , time enough for him to show his class: he had 10 touches, completed five out of six passes, won 2 tackles, recovered the ball once and made three fouls. The best moment for Güler was mounting a counter-attack with a wonderful touch for Joselu , who then found the Turk inside the area, with a chance to shoot at goal; Güler was loose with his first touch and missed his best chance to score for Real Madrid. ✅ A @LaLigaEN debut topped off with a win! pic.twitter.com/fqrfjSkwfC — Real Madrid C.F. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@realmadriden) January 28, 2024 Güler to be ‘a very important player’ says Carlo Despite the lack of minutes this season, the overall feelings are positive: Güler has already played in three di...

A starring performance from Steph Curry on Friday evening kept the Golden State Warriors alive in the NBA In-Season Tournament. Curry notched 35 points in the 118-112 victory over the San Antonio Spurs at Chase Center. That win leaves the Warriors with a 2-1 record in the new tournament, trailing only the Sacramento Kings (3-0) in West Group C. Fortunately for Golden State, they take on the Kings in their final game of the group stage. They need a victory over the Kings to level their respective records. Then, they need the Minnesota Timberwolves to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in the other remaining West Group C fixture. No other player in NBA history has more than 97 such games 🤯 By the Numbers, powered by @googlecloud pic.twitter.com/ZLttRLiGZM — Golden State Warriors (@warriors) November 26, 2023 This would leave the Warriors, the Kings and the Timberwolves with equal records and head-to-heads. Top spot would then be decided by point differential. The Kings currently ha...
