The women’s college basketball season is heating up, and the South Carolina Gamecocks are the favorites to win it all at the end of the season.
Second on the oddsboard are the reigning national champion LSU Lady Tigers.
The Tigers, who received a significant boost during the offseason via the transfer portal with the addition of Hailey Van Lith and Aneesah Morrow, opened the season at +230. Now, they are at +500 to repeat. UCLA rounds out the top three at +850.
Fourth on the list and tied with UCLA are the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Let’s look at how the rest of the top teams stack up.

The race for the John Wooden Women’s Player of the Year will be an interesting one because of a rarity among the contenders.
The women’s game features two previous winners of the Wooden Award. Caitlin Clark won it last season, and Paige Bueckers won it as a freshman in 2021. So, it’s no surprise they are the two betting favorites for the award.

Indiana coach Mike Woodson conducted a brief interview with Rhett Lewis at Friday’s Hoosier Hysteria at Assembly Hall.
Here’s a full transcript of everything Woodson said in a five-minute interview near midcourt:
On what nights like Hoosier Hysteria say about the state of Indiana’s love for basketball and the support for the IU program:
“It hasn’t changed all these years. Indiana has the greatest fans in college basketball without a doubt.”
On what the next step is this season for IU basketball:
“Well, the only step, when I came in here a few years ago is trying to get our team to win a Big Ten title. Shouts out to Teri Moren and her ladies for winning a Big Ten title. That was unbelievable. But that’s the next step and then you go from there to winning a national title.
“That’s the only reason why I came back. There’s nothing in it else for me. It’s never been about me. It’s about the players behind me that I coach, my family, my daughters, my immediate family and the fans.
“And I gotta say this. When all of you guys go home tonight, do me a favor. Get on your knees and say a prayer for Bob Knight and his family because I wouldn’t be standing here – make no mistake about it – Bob Knight is Indiana basketball.”
On the legacy that players like Trayce Jackson-Davis and Race Thompson have left and the legacy that guys like Xavier Johnson and Trey Galloway can continue to build:
“Well again, we’re going to miss those guys. There’s no doubt about that. Their time here was special. The two years that I spent with them. But as a coach, my staff and I, we gotta move on and get ready for this season.
“I love the makeup of our ballclub. This summer they put in a lot of work and yes there’s a lot of work that Mike Woodson’s got to get done on both ends of the floor with this group to win at a high level. And we’ll get there, but it’s going to take some time. But I’m very pleased with the progress and where we are today know that we got a lot of work ahead.”
On what winning basketball will look like with this year’s team:
“It’s unbelievable. We got 10 new faces on this team and they don’t really know what Indiana basketball is about. They don’t know the fanbase and how we travel. It’s unbelievable, man. It’s hard to describe.
“So only time will tell when they step foot on this floor in front of our fans that they’ll realize how good it is.
“I also want to give a shoutout to our president Pam Whitten and our athletic director (Scott Dolson) because I wouldn’t be standing here today if it wasn’t for him. So thank you guys, thank you for coming out this evening because it means a great deal to the ladies program and to the men’s basketball program. And let’s go root on Tom Allen and his crew tomorrow.”
This week’s edition of ‘How Can this Benefit My Brand?’ includes insights surrounding how to efficiently repurpose other channels to form long-form content, how YouTube SEO can be optimised, ways to meet the needs of the TikTok algorithm, how X posts can maximise the same impact as a blog post alongside a super engaging way fighters can optimise Instagram reels.
Wow, I’ve officially been featured on the DAZN x Series YouTube channel.
YouTube upload from the DAZN X Series YouTube channel. My X post features from 7:21-8:11
Now that’s a big deal! Ahead of #KSIFury, Misfits Boxing has gotten crossover boxer Slim Albaher to react to comments from the crossover boxing community around updates in the industry.
One of these posts came from me posting on X about how an anticipated fight between AnesonGib & Slim would’ve been electric, but unfortunately, due to financial issues between Gib and Mams Taylor, Gib is currently unwilling to be affiliated with Misfits Boxing…
However, combat sports athletes and brands can learn from this YouTube video alone to use comments and fan-led reactions across different channels to be repurposed through reaction videos like this.
It clearly pays dividends and almost makes your marketing strategy work like a human skeleton where every channel you have is interdependent towards growing your brand in some shape or form.
How can combat sports athletes optimise their YouTube SEO game through descriptions?
YouTube upload from VIDDAL
None other than Viddal Riley became an English cruiserweight champion this weekend, and there are many tick boxes that he’s applied to marketing this incredible achievement.
Firstly, he’s affiliated with his hashtag through the custom keyword feature on his YouTube upload, allowing him to optimise visibility through his content.
Secondly, he’s remembered to endorse his sponsor, Myprotein, alongside utilising the discount code ‘VIDDAL’, which can act as a tracker to show how influential Riley is towards an ambassador for the brand.
Thirdly, he’s plugged his editors responsible for crafting this vlog of his fight which can inspire other fighters to consider using them for leverage.
Last but certainly no means least, he’s left a link to all of his socials via Linktree! This is great for third-party traffic and gaining more of a community aside from subscribers on one platform.
If I were to be hyper-critical, Viddal could’ve optimised his description further by allocating timestamps of certain parts in his video to give viewers more accessibility towards when particular events occur during the video.
Aside from that, well done to the Rilist!
Cage Titans demonstrating they know how TikTok works!
TikTok reel from Cage Titans
When it comes to producing content on TikTok, it’s essential to capitalise on viral trends/audios/content to maximise the impact of your personal content!
In MMA, Khamzat Chimaev is a big deal who has gone from strength to strength to becoming one of the biggest stars in the West.
As a result, many other things will get attached to him, such as popular audio used for user-generated content pieces, fight compilation clips, catchphrases that will be a part of his fighter slogan and nickname and much more!
Cage has maximised this by promoting one of their fighters, Jay Curley, with some fight highlights accompanied by audio centralised around Khamzat Chimaev clips.
To maximise brand engagement on the platform, they’ve even taken time to respond to comments about the video, which is fantastic for community building and growing an audience.
Match of the Day demonstrates how to optimise an X post.
X post from Match of the Day
Away from combat sport, MOTD has shared some content surrounding speculation around the Spurs vs. Liverpool game over the weekend.
Regarding how they’ve optimised their X post for this, they’ve included a branded graphic that follows the MOTD logo’s colour schemes, an essential code for generating brand awareness towards prospective audiences.
Secondly, there’s a VERY comprehensive alt-text description about what the imagery is illustrating, which makes your content more accessible towards disadvantaged audiences who might be visually impaired; it’s a good tactic for making your content more inclusive.
Thirdly, including three hashtags relevant to their content house style is key, such as #BBCFootball for general fans, #LFC for Liverpool supporters and #THFC for Spurs supporters.
There are three simple ways for a brand to make its content brand-sensitive.
Joshua & Joel Iyalla & Glitch Boxing show us how to make boxing tutorials engaging in Instagram Reels.
Collaborative Instagram Reel from Joshua Iyalla, Joel Iyalla & Glitch Boxing
If you’re a fighter with an upcoming event, utilise the location to endorse engagement, virality and culture to optimise your brand.
What I mean by this is both Joshua and Glitch Boxing have their socials on point to educate their audience about boxing knowledge through tutorials, tips and tricks.
However, both gentlemen have optimised an opportunity at a beautiful spot with a view of the Eiffel Tower to undergo what would be regular content for both creators. Therefore, think proactively when it comes to content creation opportunities.
That’s enough from me. Do you have any further insights that I may have missed out?

We kick things off as always with the Five-Star Countdown. We will count down all 21 five-stars until we end at No. 1. Rivals recruiting director AdamGorney offers his thoughts on each five-star.

2. WR JEREMIAH SMITH
Gorney’s Take: What we love most about Jeremiah Smith – other than all the physical and competitive traits to make him special – is that the Ohio State commit does not rest on his laurels. Smith not only competed at the OT7 National this summer in Southern California but drove 30 miles up the road to work out for the Elite 11 quarterbacks as well.
With his phenomenal size, athletic ability and tremendous hands, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: The five-star is the most dominant high school receiver since Julio Jones.

3. DE WILLIAMS NWANERI
Gorney’s Take: Later on Monday, everyone will learn whether the five-star defensive end from Lee’s Summit (Mo.) North commits to Oklahoma, Missouri or Georgia. Whichever program lands Williams Nwaneri is getting a really special prospect.
Nwaneri looks like a college defensive end playing against high school boys as he has NFL size, outstanding speed, great hands and the tracking ability to get people on the ground from anywhere. A push to No. 1 overall is not out of the question.
*****
4. QB JULIAN SAYIN
Gorney’s Take: Julian Sayin not only won the Elite 11 but was maybe a throw or two away from winning the pro day portion of that event – the most important part – as the Alabama commit proved once again he can hang with any quarterback in this class and might be the best one.
What stands out so much about Sayin is that he’s cerebral, underrated as an athlete and has precision passing ability, plus an under-the-radar competitiveness that should be perfect at Alabama.

5. DE COLIN SIMMONS
Gorney’sTake: Colin Simmons is the most athletic defensive end in this class. He has relentless energy, pursues until the ball carrier is on the ground, beats offensive tackles with speed to the outside or his athletic ability to the inside. The new Texas commit is just all over the place, all the time. It seems as if Simmons has boundless energy that’s put into good use to make plays and his ability to cover ground is remarkable.

*****
6. WR MICAH HUDSON
Gorney’sTake: We think Micah Hudson could be a slightly more physical Garrett Wilson at the same stage. A mistake was made to not move Wilson to five-star status although he was No. 32 in the 2019 class, but the same issue won’t be made with Hudson. He has electric speed but is also a smooth route runner who has phenomenal hands and concentration to bring in every ball thrown his way.
Texas Tech remains the frontrunner but the Temple (Texas) Lake Belton standout still hasn’t made his commitment as Texas A&M and Texas remain in the picture.
*****
7. WR MIKE MATTHEWS
Gorney’s Take: The new Tennessee commit is just a supreme athlete in every way imaginable. As a receiver, Matthews runs smooth, solid routes to get open, he can take short passes and do special things or stretch the defense by running by cornerbacks.
On defense, the Lilburn (Ga.) Parkview recruit is a playmaker in the back end and Matthews is also a pretty elite basketball player as well.
Coach JoshHeupel should find numerous ways to get Matthews on the field – and early – in Knoxville.

8. DT JUSTIN SCOTT
Gorney’s Take: Justin Scott can line up in any gap along the defensive line and be destructive as he pushes around interior offensive linemen, can use his speed to get in the backfield and then does a great job of pursuit in getting the ball carrier to the ground. Whether it’s a double team or one-on-one, Scott is regularly going to win because of burst, power and then relentless pursuit. Some believe he could be an even better offensive lineman and while his coach at Chicago (Ill.) St. Ignatius thinks Scott could excel there, his rare qualities on defense make the Ohio State commit stand out.

9. DB KJ BOLDEN
Gorney’s Take: As a receiver, KJ Bolden might be a five-star as well. But the new Florida State commit is projected to play safety in college and he’s special there as well, not only patrolling the secondary and having the ranginess and instincts to make plays but he can also play straight corner or nickel as well.
Really, Buford (Ga.) uses the five-star all over the field as he’s fantastic on offense, elite on defense and really great on special teams as well.
SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH FSU FANS AT THEOSCEOLA.COM
*****
10. DT DAVID STONE
Gorney’s Take: What David Stone does best is that he keeps his hands and feet active at all times. While he relies on the swim technique a lot to beat offensive linemen, he keeps it tight and doesn’t expose a lot of area for opponents to block him.
His speed is also elite since he can burst off the snap and get where he wants to be before the offensive linemen can get into their stance, which gives him another advantage. With that speed, unrelenting power and tons of pursuit, Stone is going to live in the backfield.
Oklahoma is considered the favorite with Miami, Florida and Texas A&M on his list. A commitment is coming later this month.
*****
11. DE KAMARION FRANKLIN
Gorney’s Take: Is it possible that even at No. 11 nationally, Kamarion Franklin is underrated? Stats aren’t everything but the Lake Cormorant, Miss., five-star defensive end had 93 tackles, 48 quarterback hurries and 19 sacks last season. Only at the all-star events will we get a final say on where Franklin should be rated but with his length and power off the edge, the five-star is really special and might only be tapping his potential.
A commitment is expected later this month with Auburn, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Miami and Florida State as his finalists.
*****
12. LB JUSTIN WILLIAMS
Gorney’s Take: There is not much better junior season tape than that from Justin Williams, who has excellent size, pursues like a madman, can play near the line of scrimmage and blow up a running back in the hole, track players to the sideline or drop and play in coverage.
The new Georgia commit can really do it all on the football field and in coach Kirby Smart’s defense, the Conroe (Texas) Oak Ridge standout should excel.
SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH GEORGIA FANS AT UGASPORTS.COM
*****
13. DB ELLIS ROBINSON
Gorney’s Take: Ellis Robinson recently moved to the top-rated cornerback in the 2024 class and after some impressive performances this summer, the Georgia commit is now a five-star prospect as well. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Robinson has great size and length and even though he’s a bigger corner, the Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy standout showed this summer he can turn and run with the best receivers in the class.
Robinson might not be a burner at the position but he can cover, make up ground and his length allows him to always be around the ball.

*****
14. DB ZAQUAN PATTERSON
Gorney’s Take: One of the best-looking prospects in the 2024 class, Zaquan Patterson is expected to play safety in college but he also played receiver at OT7 Nationals and looked like an elite player wherever he is on the field. The Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna standout is phenomenal in coverage, does a great job tracking the deep ball and he’s super comfortable in space or coming up to make a big hit.
Miami is considered the favorite but Auburn, Florida State and others are involved.
*****
15. ATH JOSHISA TRADER
Gorney’s Take: To be completely frank, Joshisa Trader will need a big senior season and a strong showing in the all-star events or he runs the risk of falling out of five-star status. Trader is a very talented receiver, he makes plays all over the field and when he flips over to defensive back he might even be better. But he didn’t work out at OT7 Nationals and was a little off the radar this offseason.
The Miami commit is really good but a first-round grade can only happen for so many so Trader needs to be back it up on the field. He definitely has the skills to do just that.

16. DE DYLAN STEWART
Gorney’s Take: The difference in talent level between Williams Nwaneri and Dylan Stewart is very slight – if at all – as the two are very similar players and dominant defensive linemen. Stewart might be a little more finesse off the edge but the South Carolina commit could also be slightly longer as both are incredibly athletic.
The Gamecocks beat Ohio State and others for the Washington (D.C.) Friendship Collegiate Academy standout and Stewart has all the tools NFL teams are looking for in edge rushers.

*****
17. DE EDDRICK HOUSTON
Gorney’s Take: Maybe Eddrick Houston doesn’t have the elite length as other five-star defensive ends in the 2024 class but in terms of production and disruption coming off the edge, the Buford, Ga., standout is a top-notch player and looks to back it up again in his senior season after a quiet summer.
Houston really moved way up in the rankings after great sophomore film and then impressive in-person evaluations as a junior. He can push by offensive linemen with power or get to the outside with speed.
Ohio State is considered the frontrunner but others remain as well.
*****
18. LB MYLES GRAHAM
Gorney’s Take: A move to Gainesville (Fla.) Buchholz for his senior season only solidifies Myles Graham’s Florida commitment and the Gators are not only getting a legacy (he’s Earnest Graham’s son) but also an elite linebacker with phenomenal coverage skills and the ability to play in space.
Graham is an excellent running back himself but he projects on defense in Gainesville and that’s where the five-star can come down and hit, race to the sidelines to knock people around and play in space as comfortably as anyone else in the class.
SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH FLORIDA FANS AT 1ST AND TEN FLORIDA
*****
19. WR RYAN WINGO
Gorney’s Take: The St. Louis (Mo.) University five-star receiver, who’s looking at Missouri, Texas, Georgia and others, had a quiet offseason but showed up to the NIL Sports seminar/media day and definitely looked the part of an elite player.
Ryan Wingo has leaned out over the last year and is still a smooth route runner with great size and big hands. A big senior season – and especially an impressive showing at the all-star events – could solidify his five-star ranking.
*****
20. QB AIR NOLAND
Gorney’sTake: An argument could be made that the Ohio State quarterback commit was the most consistent at the Elite 11 through every drill and every test given to those players. The lefty is so compact in his delivery, spins it perfectly nearly every time and had no problem timing up with receivers and putting it on the money every time.
There’s another ancillary benefit to consider when it comes to Air Noland: He’s going to be surrounded by incredible receivers when he gets to Columbus, which will make his job easier.

21. DB PEYTON WOODYARD
Gorney’s Take: One of the biggest recruiting stories of the summer came in recent days when the five-star safety flipped his commitment from Georgia to Alabama. The Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco prospect will be closely watched this season, and there will be pressure from others for these final five-star spots.
Peyton Woodyard is incredibly talented but so are many others. A big fall season and a strong showing at the all-star games will be crucial.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp underwent an MRI on his injured hamstring after leaving practice early Tuesday night, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The source said the Rams will be cautious with Kupp’s injury but that he could be back “for scrimmages in a few weeks.”
Kupp, the MVP of Super Bowl LVI, walked off the field with the training staff about 30 minutes into a two-hour workout at UC Irvine. Matthew Stafford and other players didn’t see exactly what happened, but coach Sean McVay said he was told Kupp “came up a little bit in a red zone route.”
A team spokesperson confirmed the injury to reporters later Tuesday.
“Obviously, we’re much better when he’s here, and we hope he’s going to be OK,” McVay said. “If he’s not, we’ll see what happens, but the practice had to go on.”
Kupp is returning for his seventh NFL season after missing the final eight games of 2022 with a high ankle sprain. He also missed the final eight games of his second NFL season in 2018 with a torn knee ligament.
Kupp won the NFL’s triple crown of receiving in 2021, leading the league in catches (145), receiving yards (1,947) and touchdowns (16). He starred during the Rams’ playoff run, culminating in two touchdown catches in the Super Bowl, including the winner with 1:25 to play.
He had 75 catches for 812 yards and six touchdowns in nine games last season before his ankle sprain.
Kupp is one of just a few key players left with the Rams, who are likely to field the NFL’s least experienced roster this season after parting ways with most of their veteran depth in the offseason. Stafford and Aaron Donald are also back with the Rams, who went 5-12 last year in the worst season in league history for a defending Super Bowl champion.
The 30-year-old Kupp is expected to be Stafford’s go-to target again this fall.
“I just want to know what’s going on,” Stafford said. “That’s the main thing, and I’ll figure that out at some point. But I trust our guys, and whatever is going on, I know he’ll do everything he can to work through whatever is going on and be back out here whenever it’s the right time.”
The Rams open the preseason against the Los Angeles Chargers on Aug. 12.

This screams out so many blessings from a content perspective
Repurposeful across multiple channels (FB Reels, TikTok, YouTube shorts etc.)
Bitesize and engaging content
Content tailor made for inclusive purposes through captions
Repurpose. Engagement and inclusion. Three key themes to follow when creating content on ANY channel
Proof that fans are you biggest advocates
A fan account produced this awesome thread about UFC lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev. Endorsing Khabib’s prodigy about his achievements
Threads are an awesome way on X to summarise copy in a comprehensive format that can maximise retention rates in comparison to traditional blog posts.
Therefore, think about when you next upload a blog post, you can repurpose it through a thread summarising the key points to optimise retention from your desired audience
How can I engage my community on YouTube
Elusive 2.0 is a analytical masterclass when it comes to combat sports, boxing, MMA, you name it. Always timely with analysing prospective fights or previous fights on a daily basis.
It’s excellent to have a consistent upload schedule to ensure your fans know what to expect with your brand, however, how can you take this one step further
Maximise the comment section! It will greatly benefit your engagement by interacting with your audience and make them feel greatly valued through your content and more likely to convert as subscribers and followers on your channel.
If you’re an upcoming creator, it’s easier to manage as well in comparison to being a well-established personality. Therefore, maximise this tip and keep your audience engaged
Cage Titans know how TikTok works
The algorithms across the ‘digisphere’ are unique as they come. Cage Titans get it like the back of their hand
When it comes to creating short form content, it’s a matter of understanding the habits of your consumers and orientating content around that, rather than purely focusing your content strategy on your niche
For example, lads and lasses at sports events know about the drinking culture, especially in combat sports, particularly with shoey’s becoming more and more popular. Therefore, maximise that and focus on how it can benefit your brand
Another transferable example can include when I go to football games, I notice quite a few fans start making paper aeroplanes and throw it around in the crowd, therefore, if you’re a fan-led account, record it, add some voiceovers and engaging audio and this will be appreciated by the TikTok algorithm
در استرالیا-نیوزیلند 2023، بیش از نیمی از فهرست 23 زن ولاتکو آندونوسکی در ایالات متحده در اولین جام جهانی او شرکت خواهند کرد. رویداد خیمه شب بازی فوتبال می تواند زندگی را برای همیشه تغییر دهد، آنقدر قدرتمند است که بالقوه های نسبتا ناشناس را در عرض چند هفته به افراد مشهور جهانی تبدیل کند.
نائومی گیرما، مدافع میانی 23 ساله که به جای کاپیتان مصدوم، بکی ساوربرون، خط دفاعی را هدایت می کند، در مصاحبه ای تلفنی به FOX Sports گفت: “بدیهی است که جام جهانی سطح بسیار بزرگتری است.”
دوازده سال پیش، این الکس مورگان – که در آن زمان برای هم تیمیهای آزمایش شدهاش در نبرد با نام “بیبی هورس” شناخته میشد – بود که در هر دو نیمه و فینال گل زد و یک شبه به یک نام آشنا تبدیل شد. در حالی که مورگان و مگان راپینو کهنهکار دیگر همچنان سرگروههای بیمنظور تیم 2023 ایالات متحده هستند که هفته آینده تلاش خود را برای کسب سومین عنوان جهانی متوالی بیسابقه آغاز میکند – شاهکاری که هیچیک از تیمهای مردان یا زنان تاکنون انجام ندادهاند – آنها لزوماً هنوز هم نخواهند کرد. پس از فینال 20 اوت در سیدنی، استرالیا، مشهورترین اعضای آن باشید.

با تیمی که نسبت به نسل قبلی خود جوانتر و متنوعتر است، تعدادی از تازهواردها میتوانند در طی یک ماه آینده در آگاهی آمریکا منفجر شوند – نه بیشتر از ترینیتی رادمن.
به عنوان دختر دنیس رادمن، اسطوره NBA، این مهاجم 21 ساله در حال حاضر یک کنجکاوی طبیعی در بین هواداران است. اما او همچنین در حال حاضر در راه خود برای ایجاد نامی برای خود با USWNT است. روز یکشنبه، رادمن هر دو گل را در پیروزی 2-0 مقابل ولز به ثمر رساند، آخرین بازی تدارکاتی آمریکایی ها قبل از افتتاح مرحله گروهی جام جهانی در 21 ژوئیه مقابل ویتنام (9 شب به وقت محلی در FOX و برنامه FOX Sports).

رادمن بعد از آلیسا تامپسون 18 ساله، که پس از پارگی تاندون کشکک در زانوی چپش در بازی دوستانه آوریل مقابل ایرلند، جایگزین مالوری سوانسون شد، رادمن دومین بازیکن جوان تیم است.
آندونوسکی پس از معرفی تیم در ماه گذشته در مورد تامپسون گفت: “در ماه اکتبر، او فوتبال جوانان بازی می کرد و اکنون، در ماه جولای، در بزرگترین مرحله فوتبال زنان خواهد بود.”
سپس سوفیا اسمیت، 22 ساله، یک گلزن تمام عیار است که احتمالاً از رادمن و تامپسون داون آندر شروع خواهد کرد.
همه تازه کارها جوان نیستند. لین ویلیامز مهاجم، کریستی میویس هافبک (خواهر بزرگ سام میویس مجروح سال 2019) و دروازه بان پشتیبان اوبری کینگزبری همگی 30 ساله هستند.

هجوم خون جدید تنها چیزی نیست که این تیم جام جهانی ایالات متحده را از لیست های قبلی متمایز می کند. انتقاد از قهرمان چهار بار جهان USWNT در طول سال ها عدم تنوع در صفوف آن بوده است. در حالی که بازیکنان آشکارا همجنسگرا، مانند راپینو و ابی وامباخ، بهترین گلزن تاریخ آمریکا، برای دههها اعضای کلیدی تیم بودهاند، فهرست 2019 تنها شامل سه آمریکایی آفریقاییتبار (مدافع کریستال دان و مهاجمان ذخیره سوانسون و جس مکدونالد) و صفر لاتینی بود. .
این بار حتی بدون سوانسون و کاتارینا ماکاریو مصدوم، هفت بازیکن سیاه پوست در ترکیب حضور دارند. هافبک اشلی سانچز و مدافع کناری سوفیا هوئرتا تبار مکزیکی دارند. هوئرتا، بومی بویز، آیداهو، نماینده مکزیک در جام جهانی زیر 20 سال بود و حتی پنج بار برای این مسابقات آماده شد. ال تری در سطح ارشد قبل از تغییر دائمی به ایالات متحده در سال 2017.

ویلیامز به FOX Sports گفت: از نظر تاریخی، فوتبال در این کشور یک ورزش عمدتاً سفیدپوست بوده است. “وقتی بزرگ شدم، وقتی به مسابقات می رفتم، واقعاً کسی نبود که شبیه من باشد. بنابراین این یک فرصت واقعاً عالی است نه فقط برای خودم، بلکه برای هر کسی که بتواند خود را در من ببیند.”
گیرما افزود: “نمایندگی یکی از مهمترین موارد است.” این تیم ایالات متحده احتمالاً متنوعترین تیمی است که ما داشتهایم. حضور در آن برای من واقعاً خاص است. امیدوارم دختران جوان را تشویق کند که احساس کنند به این فضایی تعلق دارند، جایی که شاید آنها چنین احساسی نداشتند. قبل از.”

تعویض گارد هم اکنون آغاز شده است. مورگان در 34 سالگی هنوز یک بازیکن کلیدی است، اما ممکن است چهار سال دیگر نگذشته باشد. راپینو که در 5 ژوئیه 38 ساله شد، پس از 4 سال پیش که در جلو و مرکز قرار گرفته بود، تابستان امسال نقش مکمل را از روی نیمکت بازی خواهد کرد. او هفته گذشته اعلام کرد که با پایان فصل NWSL در پاییز امسال از این ورزش بازنشسته خواهد شد. این می تواند آخرین جام جهانی 2015 برای آلام ارتز، مدافع کلی اوهارا و دروازه بان آلیسا ناهر نیز باشد.
به جای آنها، این نسل جدید از ستارگان ایالات متحده آماده هستند تا از این تجربه جام جهانی به عنوان سکوی پرتاب برای بقیه زندگی خود استفاده کنند. آنها ممکن است در حال حاضر چهره تازه ای داشته باشند و ثابت نشده باشند، همانطور که مورگان زمانی بود. اما آنها میدانند که تابستان امسال Down Under، تاریخ برای برداشتن وجود دارد.
گیرما گفت: «امیدوارم تعداد زیادی دختر کوچک تماشا کنند، الهام بگیرند و بخواهند فوتبال بازی کنند. تنها یک لحظه کافی است تا چشمان یک بچه کوچک باز شود.

پس از یک نتیجه طولانی مدت و بسیار تحت فشار برای باشگاه مرسی ساید اورتون در لیگ برتر، تحلیلگران و هواداران متخصص نیاز مبرم به ثبات را پیش از بدتر شدن وضعیت آنها در فصل های آینده تکرار کردند.
از زمان ورود مالک اکثریت فعلی، فرهاد مشیری، تافیهای دارای تزئینات تاریخی کمپینهایی را تحمل کردهاند که با پنجرههای نقل و انتقالات بیهوده، گردش مالی بیش از حد مدیریتی و به طور کلی فقدان چشمانداز مواجه شدهاند.
این مسائل باعث شد که سرمربی فعلی شان دایچ پس از ورودش در موقعیتی نامطمئن قرار گیرد، بودجه نقل و انتقالات صفر، مصدومیت های بیشماری برای بازیکنان ستاره، هواداران ناامید و پاره پاره شده، و باشگاهی که در منطقه سقوط به سر می برد.
علیرغم همه این موانع، اورتون توانست در روز پایانی از سقوط بگریزد، از طریق نمایش های سخت، “سخت و سخت” و با روحیه، که تماشاگران لیگ برتر اکنون در تیم های شان دایچ به آن عادت کرده اند.
و در حالی که برخی از منتقدان همچنان نسبت به سبک بازی دفاعی بدنام سرمربی سابق برنلی نگران هستند، عملکرد دایچه در چند ماه گذشته در راس هدایت باید شواهد کافی برای نشان دادن اینکه او شایسته یک فصل کامل سرمربیگری است، باشد.
این باور برای ماندن در کنار مرد انگلیسی از طریق مجری تلویزیون تافی و بری کاس وفادار اورتونی منعکس شده است، که تاکید کرد ایدئولوژی شان دایچ مبنی بر “سازماندهی” بدون “هیجان” یا تاکتیک های شیک دقیقاً همان چیزی است که باشگاه او در فصل بعد به شدت به آن نیاز دارد. نمایش زنده هفته گذشته
در طول پخش، کاس از توانایی دایچه در نگه داشتن اورتون با “بدون مهاجم” و “بدون نقل و انتقالات زمستانی” برای بهبود تیم قدردانی کرد. از این رو، مجری بر این باور است که با یک پیش فصل کامل، “ابزار” هجومی اضافه شده در این پنجره تابستانی، دایچ می تواند آبی ها را از مشکلات سقوط بیشتر دور کند و به جلو حرکت کند.
علاوه بر این، وضعیت مالی دردسرساز که تافی ها در حال حاضر در آن قرار دارند، برای اکثر مدیران ارشد در سطح بالای فوتبال اروپا یک پروژه تقریباً غیرممکن خواهد بود، اما برای دایچ تا یک سه راهی مناسب است.
یک دهه تاثیرگذار در برنلی هوش و ذکاوت او را در مورد بودجه نقل و انتقالات کوچک در کنار موفقیت بی سابقه با حداقل کیفیت روی کاغذ نشان داد، از جمله مقام هفتم در سال 2018 و راهیابی به لیگ اروپا.
اکنون با توجه به محدودیتهای بازی جوانمردانه مالی که باعث توقف هرگونه نقل و انتقال پولی احتمالی برای اورتون در این تابستان شده است، تجربه شان دایچ در بهبود تیمی سبک وزن از طریق خریدهای زیرکانه و فروش هوشمندانه در سراسر پنجره بسیار مهم خواهد بود.
در نهایت، با فرض حداقل مقدار پول موجود، توسعه بازیکنان موجود نیز بخشی کنترل کننده در موفقیت اورتون در آینده کوتاه مدت خواهد بود.
دایچ در چند ماه اول حضورش به عنوان گافر، با احیای دوباره هافبک سابق، عبدالله دوکور، اجمالی از این موضوع را به نمایش گذاشت. پس از درگیری با فرانک لمپارد، سرمربی قبلی آبیها، دایک فرصتی دوباره به ملی پوش مالی داد که نتیجه داد، زیرا او در یک پیروزی غافلگیرکننده خارج از خانه مقابل برایتون و در روز آخر در خانه بورنموث گلهای مهم را به ثمر رساند.
در مجموع، علیرغم اینکه چشمنوازترین، پر زرق و برقترین یا عجیبترین سبک بازی را به دست نمیآوریم، هیئت نامناسب در EFC باید به مدیر فعلی شان دایچ وفادار بماند تا از بهترین شانس برای جلوگیری از درام یا درام روز آخر اطمینان حاصل شود. معاشقه با سقوط در فصل های آینده.
