    What a strike!

    That’s one for the clubs to look at down the road. Nice!

    Game before she had one very similar but not from that far out that the keeper got a finger on.

    Just a reminder…..It’s all fun and games to pick on The HCP, but let’s not use real photos as part of the joke

    Mbappes tenure so far with Real Madrid has been completely forgettable.

    Soccer is strange in that there aren't many stats really. There isn't other stats counted that can show a players impact it seems. My daughter's senior season in HS, the other teams basically double teamed and marked her all game long trying to keep her form even getting the ball. Her goal and assist numbers went down. So if you looked at the stats and didn't watch the games, you'd think she struggled. Ironically her two other forwards on her team had career highs in goals. Such a strategic game.

    I'm know there are advanced stats, but you really have to dig. They never show those on broadcasts.

    Worked my first game for PRIME on Friday for the Thorns game. Wonder if anybody watched and what they thought of it compared to our normal APPLE NWSL show.

    Of course the same thing is true in Basketball, which is why Curry was robbed of the Finals MVP when Iguodala got it (not that I minded at the time).

    This is why you have to actually WATCH football ("soccer") not just read it.

    Can I find it in my heart to feel sorry for Man U. fans? No, I cannot.

    Everton fans, on the other hand...

    I think one of the best stats is passing accuracy.

    I thought Everton would be relegated last season
