The general plan is to do a recap for the Sunday matches while the Thursday/Friday matches will be recapped in the preview for the next game. Bluntly, the rush of football content on Friday and Saturday means I will typically not have the energy to do a full recap between the weekend games. Reacting to one soccer game in a vacuum is also a bit like reacting to one baseball game, so this space will be mostly a recap of the Sunday game but also touch on trends that seem to be developing after the weekend of play.
The first thing I noticed watching today’s match was that Maddie Elwell seems a bit out of sorts as a winger.
