The keeper wasn't even outside the box!!!...

What a whiff, that is all on the keeper IMO

 

Those giants of the ACC, Stanford

 

English Northern League Division Two news.

Sunderland West End were 5-2 up against Yarm & Eaglescliffe as the game moved into the second minute of added time.

5 minutes later the final whistle was blown with Yarm winning 6-5 after scoring 4 goals in 5 injury time minutes.

The 105 fans in attendance may have witnessed the greatest comeback of all time.

BREAKING: Memphis 901 FC have transferred their USL Championship franchise rights to Santa Barbara, per sources.

Memphis will not play in 2025. Santa Barbara to join USL-C in 2026. League approved.

Transfer due to no viable stadium solution.https://t.co/XTDGFUSfdk

Ryan Gauld earned plaudits for his Scotland performance tonight after coming on in the 67'.

Stuart Armstrong came on in added time.

 

Onetime soccer guy Sean Wheelock the "rules expert" on the Tyson-Paul broadcast tonight.

 

Seen in Cheshire, England.

 

It wasn't even the only last second goal in the ACC tournament.

I have not come down from the high of the Spirit semifinal win. The playoff crowds were next level for the Spirit.

Western Sydney wins their fight for real beer:

San Marino got promoted.

 

Do they get a second mountain to live on now?

Really, it is pretty impressive, since they have only won two competitive matches in their history, both within the last two months and have only scored more than 1 goal a single time...yesterday.

 

At the expense of Gibraltar, who had to think they were sitting in that catbird seat going into the final day. The only thing that would deny them a promotion was the worst team in the world beating the same team for the second time in 2 months, after not having won a game for 10 years before that.

Then San Marino did the unthinkable.

 

Dallas is getting a(nother) Pro Soccer Team:

The newest professional soccer club in North Texas 👏

The USL and the City of Garland have announced that @usldallas will join the league for the 2027 season.

Will the stadium actually be in Dallas?

 

With the USL Championship final this weekend, I was looking at the standings for the season...umm is there something worse than a Wooden Spoon? Because Miami FC would certainly qualify: 11 points all season with a -63 goal differential is absolutely atrocious, borderline not trying/throwing level (they lost their last regular season game 8-1). I don't see them lasting much longer, especially in the same market as another team that happens to have Messi on it.

 

Garland. The clue is in the tweet.

 

USL Frisco or USL Plano would have been better.
