NWSL Fall Series has wrapped up; Press, Heath, Miedema showcase talent in WSL

Under guidance from public health officials, Canadian sporting events are being canceled left and right.

The NWSL's Fall Series will start this weekend without some big USWNT names (think Megan Rapinoe, Sam Mewis, Rose Lavelle)

Alphonso Davies may already be a Canadian legend, but he has nothing on Kadeisha Buchanan. Yesterday, Buchanan notched her fourth straight Champions League title after her team Olympique Lyonnais (aka Lyon) defeated Wolfsburg 3–1 in the biggest European soccer match of the year.

Sports fans in North America will soon have primetime games with real crowd noise. But the jury’s still out if hosting fans during the COVID-19 pandemic is the best call.

After a v. successful return-to-play tournament in July, the NWSL is coming back, baby.

While 2020 is still wreaking havoc, at least we can find solace in our Canadian athletes and teams kicking ass.

This week co-hosts Ellen and Steph give their review on the first round of the NHL and NBA playoffs, talk about the havoc COVID-19 is still wreaking across the sports world and why some U.S. women’s national soccer team players are ditching the NWSL to play overseas. The drama.

The bubbles are working. The WNBA, NBA and NHL, three leagues playing inside bubble environments, have collectively gone another week without a positive COVID-19 test. So why the heck isn’t everyone sticking to the bubble plan?

If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected. The Houston Dash reminded us of that lesson yesterday, when they became the unlikely (but very welcome) winners of the NWSL Challenge Cup.
