Italy’s Depleted Lineup Just off the Pace but Deserved More from Draw in Croatia

The Italy we saw in Friday’s Euro 2016 qualifier against Croatia certainly wasn’t the crisp, active side seen at the beginning of Antonio Conte’s reign as CT. Conte’s team lacked the likes of Marco Verratti, Giorgio Chiellini and Daniele De Rossi, and it showed in their play.  Those injured players’ replacements were consistently just off the pace.  The...

Canada Not Showing Enough Confidence at Women’s World Cup

They are atop their group with one game to go, and they have not conceded a single goal in the Women’s World Cup. Still, Canada’s 0-0 draw against New Zealand on Thursday night raises some doubts.
