    WAKE UP, Arsenal! Gunners trio drop stinkers to let Man City back in

    Awful Arsenal suffered a major blow in the Premier League title race as they crumbled to a 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth, their third loss in four in all competitions. Mikel Arteta's side were second best all over the pitch on a dismal afternoon for the league leaders, who missed out on the opportunity to open up a 12 point gap over rivals Manchester City ahead of their game at Chelsea on Sunday.

    Salah AND Ngumoha must start against PSG after Fulham heroics

    Liverpool legend Mohamed Salah may have scored on his first appearance at Anfield since announcing he'll be leaving the club at the end of the season, but teenage sensation Rio Ngumoha was the undoubted star of the show as the Reds recorded a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Fulham on Saturday afternoon that boosted their Champions League hopes - in every sense.

    Mbappe goes missing as Madrid hand Barca huge advantage

    Kylian Mbappe endured an off night as Real Madrid slumped to a 1-1 draw with Girona that may well kill off their La Liga title hopes. Federico Valverde's second-half strike was countered by a Thomas Lemar goal to see the spoils shared at the Bernabeu. Los Blancos could trail Barcelona by nine points - with seven games to go - if their bitter rivals win on Saturday.

    Hayes is 'proud' of Wilson's performance vs. Japan

    Sophia Wilson, after giving birth to her daughter Gigi in September, returns to the USWNT and the starting lineup for the first time since 2024. Wilson, who earned her 59th cap and 41st start on the night, hadn’t shared the pitch with fellow “Triple Espresso” member Trinity Rodman in 17 months. After a brief feeling-out period, though, the pair looked like they hadn’t missed a beat up top.

    Why Wiegman has made teen Parkinson her youngest-ever call-up

    When England's Under-23s took on Norway back in November, there was no shortage of top talent on show. Be it Ruby Mace or Maisie Symonds, who have both been involved in Sarina Wiegman's senior team; Gracie Prior, a starter in seven of the first nine games of the season for Women's Super League leaders Manchester City; or Martine Fenger on the opposite side, the teenage forward who made her Barcelona debut earlier that month. And yet it was 17-year-old Erica Parkinson, a player some five years younger than some of those involved, who stood out most.

    Lionesses World Cup squad: Who will make the cut in 2027?

    England's qualifying campaign for the 2027 Women's World Cup is officially underway. The Lionesses started it with a 6-1 win over Ukraine on Tuesday and will continue their quest to secure a place in Brazil when hosting Iceland on Saturday. As runners-up in 2023, few would not expect Sarina Wiegman's side to achieve as much, but who the manager will choose to represent the European champions in South America is a little less certain.

    Wubben-Moy deserves Lionesses start in crucial Spain clash

    Next week, at Wembley Stadium, the two best national teams in European women's football will meet once more as England, winners of the last two European Championship titles, welcome Spain, the reigning world champions. It'll be their sixth competitive encounter in less than four years and it again brings with it huge stakes as the two bid for the one automatic qualification spot from their group for next summer's World Cup. That England could be without their captain, Leah Williamson, then, is a huge blow.

    Lionesses add new face to squad to face Spain after injury withdrawal

    Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman has been forced to rejig her squad slightly ahead of the World Cup qualifiers against Spain and Iceland next week, after an injury withdrawal. The England manager has taken the opportunity to hand out another maiden call-up while also strengthening her squad with a further body, by adding Chelsea full-back Niamh Charles following her strong return to action after three months out.
