Can't believe it's been almost two months since I've posted. So what's happening? Olympics without the U.S. men. An epic Champions League final between Bayern and Chelsea. 32nd Annual JAGS coming up.
Most recent news to resume the blog is that the U.S. women dominated china, 4-1, in a friendly last night at PPL Park outside Philadelphia. Kate Harman wrote about it in this morning's Inquirer. With the troubles women's pro soccer has had sustaining interest, it was heartening to see a sell-out crowd of more than 18,000 attend.
And related to last night's match, good story by Marc Narducci in the Inquirer the day before about Carli Lloyd. (Wouldn't expect anything but a good story from Marc.)
Finally, happy to report that Bolton midfielder, Patrice Muambe, who collapsed just before halftime of the FA Cup quarterfinal between his Bolton Wanderers and the Tottenham Hotspurs on March 17, is out of the hospital and rehabbing at home. Story here from the BBC about how he watched Bolton play the Hotspurs on May 2.
