I am obligated to note that this stretch began the day after the adoption of a plastic coyote as a good luck charm. 8-1-0 in the era of José.

Missed this game and didn’t realize this until looking at the scoresheet but Anna Moorhouse made 9 saves tonight. In nerd stats: 1.56 xG for KC, 2.59 xGOT for them, and Moorhouse still kept a clean sheet. Best performance from her in a long, long time.

There were some good on-field pictures from tonight but none of them beat this one of @rpn10.bsky.social.

Man, it's a hot one! 🌡️🔥 Good morning from Spirit training, where training has been moved up by an hour to avoid the worst of the heat. It's already 88°F a little after 10 am, feeling like 94°. High in Leesburg today will be 98°.

The good news is we’re quickly getting better at this! Good one going around about Folarin Balogun choosing to play for the US over England

Hakeem Jeffries has not posted it here yet, but said yesterday that he has asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio to let the mom of Cabo Verde goalkeeper Vozinha into the U.S. to watch her son play.

@RepJeffries

The Cabo Verde national football team shocked Spain on the strength of a historic performance by goalkeeper Vozinha.

His Mom was unable to be there because of visa complications.

No mother should miss the chance to see her child make history.

I have asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio to do everything in his power to ensure that she can attend Cabo Verde's next match on Sunday.

"American soccer fans have suffered many indignities over the years: waking up before dawn to watch games overseas, enduring the men’s national team’s failures... listening to Alexi Lalas on TV broadcasts." But is Trump creating the biggest indignity yet? My piece: www.ms.now/opinion/worl...

I always felt that someday the Knicks would call me back home. I have loved the Orlando Magic these last few years, but I think we’re getting there. I keep thinking about how happy little, Knicks-crazed me would be seeing the Knicks do this. Look at this guy. Didn’t even know how to smile yet!

My sound was off but I could hear this picture

I think she heard you, @spiritsquadron.bsky.social!

I think she knew it was going in...

Hal Hershfelt of the Washington Spirit looks confident while in the air after the shot she took on her goal but before it went into the net. Jordyn Bugg and Phoebe McClernon from the Seattle Reign are jumping up to try to block it.

Maddie Mercado seemed about as surprised as anyone that the ball went in when the Reign equalized on a funky high bounce

Trinity Rodman was almost literally dragging Leicy Santos with a hug after Santos scored the first one tonight

I deeply, truly hope that after leaving the area, the person who posted this sign really leaned into the tie-in to The Chicks and said “Goodbye Earl’s”

A poster saying “still not ready to make nice,” likely a reference to the song by The Chicks, outside a sandwich shop called Earl’s, fitting since The Chicks also have the song “Goodbye Earl”

Trinity Rodman on the Spirit building connections with each other, particularly on the field: “We amplify each other’s brilliance, and it’s just been amazing to watch and be a part of.”
