  1. Miedema stars as Man City run riot at Old Trafford

    Vivianne Miedema stole the show as Manchester City ran riot at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon, humbling Manchester United in a dominant 3-0 win to take one big step towards their first Women's Super League title in 10 years. Two headers in two first half minutes from Miedema got City off to a flying start and established a comfortable lead that would never slip, as Kerstin Casparij wrapped things up after the break to move Andree Jeglertz's side 11 points clear at the top of the table.

  2. Props for Palmer but Foden's in the last chance saloon!

    As the paper aeroplanes took flight around Wembley Stadium early in the first half of this eventual 1-1 draw between England and Uruguay, the fans were showing that they had already lost their interest. It looked like the players were also phoning it in and some needed reminding that not only was a World Cup just around the corner, but that their place at the tournament was far from guaranteed.

  3. White endures rollercoaster return in England's ugly Uruguay draw

    Ben White experienced all manner of emotions as he unexpectedly played the lead role in England's uninspiring 1-1 draw with Uruguay. The full-back was booed by his own fans when he was brought on and again after he gave the Three Lions the lead from a corner. He was then subjected to yet further criticism when his rash tackle led to a penalty from which Federico Valverde equalised in injury time.

  4. What's going on with Saka?! Starboy losing talismanic status

    When Bukayo Saka scored his 13th goal for England against Wales in October and became the highest scoring Arsenal player to play for the Three Lions, one reporter thought it would be a good opportunity to ask Thomas Tuchel to reflect on the winger’s international career. He most likely expected the German to wax lyrical about one of the best players for club and country over the past five years.

  5. How England's new kits have captured the mood of a nation

    Could 2026 finally, FINALLY be England’s year?! Nike have got us believing after dropping the Three Lions’ home and away kits with the World Cup fast approaching. Harnessing the power of the national team at a major tournament, they have captured the mood of a country that is crying out for a unifying moment. Bring on June.

  6. Youssoufa Moukoko: The fall of Dortmund's teen goal machine

    "[There’s] a young player who plays for [Borussia] Dortmund called Youssoufa Moukoko," Samuel Eto’o told GOAL when asked who he’d love to see as Barcelona’s next big signing back in October 2020. "[He’s] 15 years of age, and he’s the next top player, for me, after [Lionel] Messi. As Messi gets older, we could prepare the future of Barcelona very well."

  7. Chelsea must unleash Kerr after electric Asian Cup

    Only a year on from winning an unbeaten domestic treble, Chelsea's difficulties this season have been well-documented. The Blues are set to be dethroned as English champions for the first time since 2019 and injuries in attack have played a significant role in their shortcomings, forcing Sonia Bompastor to deploy line-ups without a central striker at times. Sam Kerr's performances for Australia at the Asian Cup this month, then, were a welcome sight for Chelsea fans.

  8. NXGN 2026: Top 20 wonderkids England fans NEED to know

    England will head to the World Cup this summer as one of the favourites to lift the trophy after a run of strong tournament showings by a still relatively young core group of players. Football, though, moves fast, and soon there will be new stars who come along and usurp those established names. Fortunately for the Three Lions, the production line is showing few signs of slowing down.
