The Women's Soccer Roundup
A weekly newsletter reviewing women's soccer from around the world.

So, I watch a lot of women's soccer. A conversation I was having with @roey.bsky.social sparked the idea to start something more formal, so I'm launching a weekly newsletter that provides a roundup of action in the wide world of #WoSo.

Happy Birthday! #WoSo world, check out Maryam’s newsletter. It’s great. I especially enjoyed her look at Edna Imade at Real Sociedad. It was insightful (and for aupa Erreala reasons).

Wow. Honestly surprised.
This puts a lot of pressure on the club to get the right coach. Gale was not perfect, but he helped right the ship in 2024 and certainly overperformed in 2025. I definitely think the club can get a better tactician, but success can require more than tactics. #BAONPDX

BREAKING #NWSL NEWS: The Portland Thorns have fired head coach Rob Gale.
The Thorns finished third this season and made the semifinals. Results were up and down, although they also dealt with lots of key absences.

Hello #WoSo world, does anyone know where the CONCACAF W League qualifiers are being broadcast in the US this weekend?
I know Paramount+ showed the knockout phase the last time, but it doesn’t look like they’re showing this year’s group stage.

This makes me think about @838carlisle.bsky.social's preview note that Gotham can over-commit on defense and how little the Spirit got the ball to the left side to possibly exploit that.
Washington Spirit: 0 (0.49 xG)
vs
NJ/NY Gotham FC: 1 (0.39 xG)

Damn. That was a whole different Utah Royals ago.
Washington Spirit failed to attempt a shot on target in this game, it's the first time they failed to attempt a shot on target in a game in the NWSL since facing Utah Royals on August 23rd 2018.

I've got the Golazo! Network star cam feed going on my phone, and it's very weird to just watch Croix Bethune run around not being involved in the play then she suddenly butt-blocks Rose Lavelle, who flew in out of nowhere. An odd way to watch a soccer match. #NWSL #NWSLChampionship

An important point from inside: The CBA allows the league to raise the cap by as much as it sees fit.
My takeaways from championship weekend, including some insight from a chat USWNT legends Christen Press and Tobin Heath, all in my latest for @ms.now.

One soccer player's contract could change the trajectory of women's sports in the U.S.
The Washington Spirit and Gotham FC face off in Saturday's NWSL final, and Spirit forward Trinity Rodman’s future is the big story of the league’s offseason.
