The FA Cup Rolls on

After knocking Liverpool out of the FA Cup, Plymouth Argyles’ reward in the round of 16 is a trip to face Manchester City. While Pep Guardiola’s side has struggled this season, it would be a monumental task for a team sitting in the relegation zone of the Championship to find a way to victory. But the same could’ve been said for facing Liverpool, and that’s why we play the games.

The USWNT’s Journey

The U.S. women’s national team fell short of winning the 2025 SheBelieves Cup but earned plenty of tactical victories. The recent match against Japan showcased strengths and areas of development, highlighting new talents and the team’s resilience.
