I have no problem with the USWNT running up the score.
A. Goal differential counts and B. It’s more disrespectful to stop playing your game and patronize your opponents
That said, why on earth are you celebrating like maniacs when you’re up by 8, 9, 10 or 11?
And it wasn’t young players at their first World Cups, either. Megan Rapinoe sliding across the ground when it’s 7-0? Like come on. Compare that to the almost embarrassed reaction from Leroy Sane when he scored Germany’s seventh goal against Estonia today.
So to hear Jill Ellis and some members of the team frame the issue as being criticized for running up the score completely misses the point. Nobody cares about that. Just have a little bit of self-awareness about it.
Run up the score and you wanna celebrate against a rival like Canada or England or France? Go crazy. Against Thailand? What are you doing?

USA's first match of the tournament felt like an match against enhancement talent that went way too long but it's all about goal differential. The rest of the group stage opponents for team USA will make Thailand look like a Jobber team on a 300 match losing streak in comparison

Just trying to work out how the schedule in Northern Ireland’s group works in euro qualifying. So they’ve played both Belarus & Estonia home & away and won all 4 but they haven’t played either Germany or Holland yet. Who does this scheduling seriously?

Reportedly Finlands home matches against Greece and Italy in september are close to being sold out already. The match against Bosnia and Herzegovina was sold out too and there's petitions to move Armenia match to a bigger stadium due to demand for tickets. It's Armenia! Just three years ago even match against Croatia didn't fill the stadium!
And better part of it: it's not just quiet fans either, now the family stands are joining in the Teemu Pukki chants as well. It's like a some kind of a boom period for Finnish national team.

Brazil v Australia was very entertaining probably the best match so far.
England are up at 8 tonight against Argentina. Argentina stopped Japan (who have made the last 2 finals) from scoring so will be a tough game.
Scotland face Japan in the other group game. Scotland played well against England especially 2nd half.

They sound pretty tough.

Mauritzio Sarri is the new manager at Juventus, with Gianfranco Zola confirming will also leave Chelsea and is expected to head to Turin as well.
Frank Lampard is hot favourite for the vacant Chelsea job.
