Inclusion of Youth Critical for USMNT in Copa America 3rd-Place Game

After a dismal performance in the semifinal round of the Copa America Centenario on Tuesday, the United States men’s national team are set to partake in the third-place match of the competition against Colombia on Saturday.

England Must Go Positive with a Front 2 Proper for Last-16 Clash with Iceland

It is often said teams need to feel their way into a major tournament such as Euro 2016, getting better as they go along. There is no fixed pattern to this, but there is logic to at least trying not to show all your cards too early. Nobody is going to pretend England planned to begin the European Championship in the frustrating fashion they have—two draws sandwiching an uninspiring win over Wales.... 

Why Underdog Status Will Help Portugal in Euro 2016 Clash with Croatia

Eight have exited. Sixteen remain, but Portugal’s continued presence at Euro 2016 hasn’t got much to do with any intelligence they’ve displayed so far.

Going for Gold: Mexico Focus on Rio Olympics as They Aim for Repeat of 2012

The 2012 London Olympics were full of sporting highlights. American swimmer Michael Phelps took his career medal tally to an astonishing 22, Jamaican Usain Bolt did the sprint double and Britain’s Mo Farah thrilled the home crowd by winning both the 5,000 and 10,000 metres. Mexico finished the Games with seven medals. Their solitary gold didn’t come on the track or in the pool, but... 

Michel Sablon: The Man Who Re-Engineered Belgian Football

Belgian football is thriving and has lifted the mood of a nation. A small country with a population of only 11.2 million heads into Sunday’s Euro 2016 round-of-16 match with Hungary as fourth favourites to win the tournament. The Red Devils have unified and helped a new word come into vogue: “Belgitude” is a confluence between Belgium and attitude, exemplifying the surrealistic desire... 

Quicken Loans National 2016: Thursday Leaderboard Scores and Highlights

Ranking the Top 10 Women’s Players Heading into Wimbledon 2016

Wimbledon serves as the crown and completion of tennis’ brief grass-court season. With the exception of the French Open, grass was once the surface for all the Grand Slams. Now it’s a rather quaint anomaly on the tennis tour.  That’s why past performance on grass serves as the best barometer for which players might heat up at the All England Club.   Defending champion...
