🇺🇸 USA, Japan Clash in Shebelieves Cup Final

On Wednesday, the American national women’s team finished the Shebelieves Cup in San Diego, facing Japan in the first essential match for a new look group.
Head coach Emma Hayes used this edition of the tournament to present new players and new ideas, a strategy that has paid so far. Between a 2-0 victory against Colombia and a 2-1 victory against Australia, each member of the team played at least 50 minutes and all the players except one started at least one match. Several players also started to plead in question to have a long -term team place, including Lily Yohannes and Claire Hutton and the attackers Ally Sendnor and Michelle Cooper. He led Hayes to already declare a certain way in the last week of work.
- Hayes: “Have we done everything we decided to do in terms of simulation of a tournament? Yes, we did that. We have increased the learning of players around our plan, our way of playing? Yes. Let’s go, we did.
The big question of the Snapdragon stadium, however, is what the approach of Hayes against Japan will look like. The winners of the 2011 Women’s World Cup were the class of the Shebelieves Cup, upgrading the 8-1 opposition in two games so far and only needed a draw on Wednesday to raise the trophy. The situation presents the first game with high issues for an inexperienced group, 17 of which currently have 30 caps or less. Whatever the result, the game – whether by selecting teams or the tactical approach – will offer a lot of food for reflection while Hayes begins to map the road to the 2027 Women’s World Cup.
Do not expect it to look like the USWNT 1-0 victory over Japan in the quarter-final of the Olympic Games last summer. Visitors have changed things since this meeting and are particularly gifted on the ball, even if players have more experience together than the current group of the United States. This game is difficult to predict, which makes it easier for one of the most intriguing games on the USWNT calendar at the early stages of a new four -year cycle.

🏴 Male City Target Redemption with Spurs
On Wednesday, the Premier League continues to stay busy with a fascinating list of matches, titled by the trip of Manchester City to Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs were a Bogey team in a way for the Pep Guardiola team, the manager registered nine defeats against the team during his career. This makes it a difficult game in the most normal circumstances, although it was not an ordinary season for both parties. City’s difficulties were well documented, making a match against an eight -seat team and 11 points below them an surprisingly difficult. They continue to box through the finish line in each match, more recently during the 2-0 Sunday defeat against Liverpool, which only reaffirmed the idea that the reconstruction of the city could not come early.
How City will accumulate against Spurs is also a fascinating thing of the corner of the hosts. The Angel Postcoglou team was also not particularly easy this season – the injuries sentenced them to a place in the lower half of the table, but the question that faces them right now: they finally have withstanding the storm? A handful of key players recently returned from injuries, including goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and attackers James Maddison and Brennan Johnson, the latter, including a splint in their 4-1 victory at Ipswich on Saturday. Cree, because a three -game race could be, the Spurs also have the longest sequence of active victories of the Premier League and could be as well as as they have been in recent months to win a significant victory. They will also have a recent experience to call – they beat City twice in the race without the seven -game champions victory in the fall which was the first real sign of problem, especially in a 4-0 victory in Manchester . Spurs will have most of the attacking staff who have excelled today at his disposal, which is preparing for an intriguing meeting.
