This was it! Thanks - makes much more sense now. Thanks!
That would be wild.
Rusnak out with an undisclosed illness; Morris is now a dad (congrats!!) and out for that reason.
And Ruidíaz was supposed to start but is apparently now in street clothes on the sideline. Maybe the hamstring? (Was apparently warming up initially but then pulled). Sounds like Heber up top.
Also love that they had players and families model the new gear: https://www.soundersfc.com/eternally-yours/retail-gallery.
It does make me wonder if they signed Paul Rothrock primarily to be a model 😂
Totally agree. The crest is miles better - looks much more modern. I really like the way that they managed to refresh without losing continuity. The Carnation and Orca are also great - can see picking up Carnation gear for myself and Orca stuff for the kid. The refreshed typography and wavemark in the text also feels fresh but a good throwback. All in all, a win, IMO.
I was thinking the same thing re: King. Restricted free agency means that she could solicit offers from other teams, but Reign have the opportunity to match, right?
Not sure if you're looking for Reign-centric stuff, but in addition to this and !nwsl@lemmy.world, you could also check out https://www.sounderatheart.com/ - they (Ride of the Valkyries) cover the Reign with great depth, and lots of other nwsl content is discussed on the site.
Would love to see many of these players back, but above all I hope that they can bring back Rose Lavelle. Just my absolute favorite women's soccer player to watch.
Yeah, but the end of that second half... woof. Still, will take the win at altitude on the road midweek.
This is the lineup for the #jordanisthetrue9 and #freeatencio crews, for sure. And Leyva's on the bench for Colorado, which I guess answers the question of whether or not loanees can play against their parent clubs...
Seems like a good guess?
Yeah that was definitely the worst of the fill... Not super fun, that one
