big — and highly intriguing — second half to come between England and Spain at Wembley. Lionesses deservedly up 1-0, but the game perhaps playing out as expected with a second half recovery on the cards for the visitors. Lauren James, Grace Clinton shining.

England picking up at Wembley, great spell, James fancying it, just need to capitalize on top knowing Spain will find their power eventually

Wales 1-1 with Sweden at the Racecourse. Kayleigh Barton with a thunderous penalty, her 22nd international goal. Rhian Wilkinson can't stop clapping on the touchlines. Stadium has erupted with over 6,000 fans in attendance (new record). Huge night for Wales Women.

It's now finally officially official from the Spirit side: Washington has signed Mexico CB Rebeca Bernal. 3-year contract. Spirit have 9 internationals for 8 international spots, so a move of some kind will have to take place to activate Ouleye Sarr from SEI. #NWSL

The #NWSL Draft is no more, but how are clubs navigating this new landscape of scouting and recruiting college talent without it? For Sports Illustrated, I checked in with #AngelCity, #BayFC, and #GothamFC about how it’s been going. www.si.com/soccer/witho...

Congrats to the KC Current, the team that has Claire Hutton (who split the defense on that goal) and Michelle Cooper (who finished it in textbook fashion). #USWNT

some credit to the Matildas, quite concerning opening 20-30 minutes has been revitalized by a compact 4-1-4-1 and a few sloppy USWNT passes getting picked up and giving the Aussies some press.

Another USWNT debut set for today: Midfielder Claire Hutton. Per Stats Perform, it's also the youngest USWNT lineup by average age (24 years, 102 days) for a match since March 17, 2001. (Eight of the players on this camp roster were born after 3/17/01!)

4 goals in 10 apps for Japan in 2024 for Maika Hamano; she now has 2 in 2 to kick off 2025. fantastic progression in this side as she develops, still only approaching her 21st birthday. doesn’t need to be rushed, but really starting to connect in the Nadeshiko seniors.

I believe this is Narumi Miura’s first cap for Japan since 2023, had been sparsely used and left off entirely of the Olympic campaign. a lot of NWSL heads would’ve called for more time but Japan team is not easy to break into. nice to see her today.

🇨🇦2-0🇲🇽 (Gilles, Leon) — the first win of the Casey Stoney era for Canada, but Mexico made things difficult in a suitably choppy concacaf “friendly”. Mexico played almost an hour with 10 players, despite little possession only just trailed in shots (14-11) + shots on goal (5-3). 📸 CANWNT

A mile from Estadio Municipal de Portimao is an enormous mural of Fernandes & Ronaldo. One day it feels Kika Nazareth will similarly grace those walls. But on a night Portugal could get excited about the future, England wrestled w/ familiar lessons of the past. www.nytimes.com/athletic/615...

🇺🇸 Official #USWNT attendance at Houston's EaDo soccer stadium last night: 15,043 just below what I believe is the stadium record for the USWNT, which was 15,543 set when they played China in 2012. 📸 shell energy stadium

“I just saw a big gap, and it's like, okay, this is my job” Reflections from Cat Macario in the mixed zone, Emma Hayes in the press room, on the player’s journey back to being the heartbeat of the USWNT. Finishing, pride and emotion. www.si.com/soccer/cat-m...

Few takeaways from the #USWNT mixed zone Lily Yohannes said that she and Yazmeen Ryan manifested the opening goal. The duo had a chat right before Cat Macario scored, where they noted the pass over the top into space on the right was on, and then they said almost immediately it happened.

Macario dropping back and playing that pass was a glimpse of the magic she's capable of.

🇺🇸 🇨🇴 quite a bitter of hubbub around the press box that Colombia could get their first-ever win over the USA tonight. personally, I quite like the XI Emma Hayes has opted for, and Yohannes, Ryan and Sentnor could well be ready to step up.

Mary Fowler came into today in the form of her life, and on a four-match record breaking WSL streak — she leaves Houston, subbed off after 64 minutes with Australia yet to attempt a single shot against Japan.
