The NWSL match between Kansas City Current and Orlando Pride is a severe heat delay in Kansas City, Mo. The two sides were set to kick off at 4 p.m. ET, but extreme heat checks exceeding 96 degrees have prevented the match from starting at its originally scheduled time, and it’s not expected to start till after 7 p.m. ET.

Kansas City Current are in first place with a 12-point lead on the league table over second-place Orlando Pride. While the Current are in contention for this year’s NWSL Shield race, Orlando Pride are the reigning 2024 NWSL Champions and NWSL Shield winners. The two teams have a budding rivalry in the NWSL based on their recent run of form and playoff-caliber rosters.

West Ham’s failure on the basics already has Graham Potter talking about bouncing back
Just as this was a scoreline that got worse and worse for West Ham United as the second half unfolded, it was a result that got worse and worse as it was digested by fans and neutrals alike on Saturday night.And West Ham face Chelsea next.That comes on Friday night at the London Stadium, and this was sufficiently damaging to West Ham as a team and as a club for manager Graham Potter — 90 minutes into the season — to be asked about “bouncing back”, if an immediate response is required against their London rivals.

None at all were found in the final 13.

For 1999 and Gary Lineker, read 2025 and Chapman, Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates, a trio of new presenters who, appropriately for the modern game, will adopt a squad rotation system on hosting duties for Match of the Day’s Saturday and Sunday shows (the MOTD 2 name has been dropped).AdvertisementLineker’s departure after 26 years as presenter gave the BBC an ideal opportunity, if they wished, to revamp the country’s longest-running football show.So what did we get from this exciting first […]
