Netherlands v USA: Tokyo Olympics women’s football quarter-final – live!

By -

The winner of this quarter-final will advance to face either Canada or Brazil in the semi-finals on Monday in Kashima. That match just ended in a 0-0 draw after 120 minutes and is headed to penalties.

The Netherlands have made a roaring start to their first ever Olympics. They have already surpassed the Olympic tournament record with 21 total goals in a 10-3 win over Zambia, a 3-3 draw with Brazil and an 8-2 victory over China. The 21 goals are 12 more than any other team in the tournament. The previous single-tournament high was 16 goals, set by the United States during their run to gold at the 2012 Olympics in London.

Seven different players have scored for the Dutch, led by star forward Vivianne Miedema, who has found the back of the net an Olympic-record eight times. She scored four goals against Zambia, two against Brazil and two against China.

Added to renewed hope, present all season, was a touch of yes, this really is happening. Then came the moment, with fireworks being wedged into the tops of milk bottles, at the beginning of stoppage time, when Nick Pope was finally forced into some sort of movement to deny Timothy Castagne, to make sure it did happen. It came after one of the Newcastle keeper’s slowest days of the season, after what had often resembled a half-pitch, beat-the-packed-defence training exercise against a Leicester team largely too meek to threaten Geordie dreams.

Richarlison’s first Tottenham goals punish Marseille for Mbemba’s red card

By -
There was the obligatory pre-match footage of Lucas Moura’s winner at Ajax and then the declaration on the big screen at Tottenham’s magnificent stadium, one that is built to stage these kind of Champions League nights. “We’re back.” For so long, it appeared that the grand return after a two-season absence would fall flat, even when Marseille were reduced to ten men in the 47th minute following Chancel Mbemba’s last-man foul on Son Heung-min.
