A crucial Dani Olmo clearance vs England helped lead Spain to a record fourth Euros title on Saturday with the Spaniards winning 2-1.

Carli Lloyd says Christian Pulisic is a contender to take Messi’s world soccer crown

Carli Lloyd just put Maradona, Messi and Pulisic in the same sentence.

U.S. women’s national team legend Lloyd is one of many former soccer stars invited to be a part of FOX Sports' live studio broadcasts in their coverage for the Euro and Copa America this summer. USMNT icons Alexi Lalas, Clint Dempsey, and Maurice Edu are also part of the panel.

Fans give mixed feelings about Landon Donovan’s commentary following Euro opener

Germany torched poor Scotland 5-1 in the Euro 2024 opener on Friday with a dominant performance. The visitors failed to record more than one shot against the hosts in the one-sided contest.

The Portland Timbers secured a 4-2 victory Wednesday night but not before trailing 2-0 at halftime and having a hot mic fail with the broadcast.

The best XI? Alexi Lalas reveals his starting lineup for the USMNT in Copa América

Alexi Lalas just revealed what he thinks should be the starting lineup for the USMNT in the 2024 Copa América. He might’ve been spot on.

Jamie Carragher crosses line when suggesting Kate Abdo hasn’t been loyal to her boyfriend

The CBS Sports Champions League crew are always teasing one another and providing hilarious moments on camera, but a Jamie Carragher Kate Abdo joke went too far during Tuesday’s coverage.

Carragher, Abdo, Thierry Henry and Micah Richards provided their coverage and analysis from Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium on Tuesday.

The crew were doing a bit during the show where each of them had to wear an Arsenal jersey during the broadcast. Former Manchester City player Richards was the first to wear it before it was passed on to Liverpool great Carragher.

Alexi Lalas claps back to Lindsey Horan and says American soccer fans are ‘the most educated’

Drama in the U.S. Soccer sphere wouldn’t be complete without former player and pundit Alexi Lalas chiming in to give his opinion. Lalas has responded to USWNT captain Lindsey Horan’s quote about American soccer fans not being smart.

Horan’s chief complaint with American soccer fans was when they only listen to what the U.S. pundits and commentators say and accept that as the truth.
