Thomas PArtay attempt- he dribbled through four Alaves players and achieved a pass through to Morata but the Alaves keeper saved it. That was the play of the game, if Morata had of scored, Atleti win.

The squad in this match is a lot of players who are not regular starters. Correa/Lemar/Llorente/Herrera/Arias are all irregular players in the starting role. Atletico MAdrid were applying the system, but these players seem unsharp in execution. This match Simeone is using as a depth test. This starting 11, especially the irregular starters, needs to be able to defeat Alaves.
llorente went out and partay came in and the midfield control became greater. Morata came in and Hererra came out and Atletico gained a blade tip. Diego Costa came out and Koke came in, for more midfield  versatility.
Atletico had good chances and did not score. Some pundits suggest these are slip ups but the season is long. Atletico are not miles away from the top of the table. And Simeone is sticking to his rotation policy, like Lampard at Chelsea. The rotation is getting better in results.

Willian- good goal , Bunrley kept going backward to goal and willian's close speed is magical, slotted between the defender and keeper. Burnley are a woeful side. The pundits keep suggesting Burnley is a good team, they are woeful, each goal was a burnley mistake to start it off: misplaced control/misplaced pass/misplaced kick out/poor defensive alignment.

Title: Lebron's statement part 1
Lebron James made a statement < https://www.sfchronicle.com/warriors/article/LeBron-James-comments-on-China-an-14535304.php > over a week ago concerning statements made by Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey. As a point, the highest media profile chinese player in NBA history, Yao Ming, played for the Rockets.
I quote Lebron:  "When you’re misinformed or you’re not educated about something, and I’m just talking about the tweet itself, you never know the ramifications that can happen ... Yes, we all do have freedom of speech. But at times, there are ramifications for the negative that can happen when you’re not thinking about others and you’re only thinking about yourself. I don’t want to get into a feud with Daryl Morey, but I believe he wasn’t educated on the situation at hand and he spoke. ...So many people could have been harmed — not only financially, but physically, emotionally, spiritually. Just be careful about what we tweet, what we say and what we do. Yes, we do have freedom of speech, but there can be a lot of negative that comes with that, too. ... I think when we talk about the political side, I think it’s a very delicate situation. Very sensitive situation ... For me personally, if any of you guys know me or always cover me, you guys know when I speak about something, I speak about something I’m very knowledgeable about" end quote.
Many people opined Lebron's statement was false but I want to go through it to see where any falsehood reside.
Lebron's first point is those who are misinformed or miseducated , based on their writing, can not know the ramifications to their words.
What is false in that point. Daryl Morey is not chinese or from Hong Kong. Morey being an massachusetts Institut of Tehcnology graduate does not give him a license to speak on anything as an informed person. Morey made his quote while Statian, statian meaning from the usa, basketball players were playing in China. If a Statian basketball player would had been hurt, Morey is the sole to blame. And, the history of sport is full of fans whose emotions/passions/energy act independently to any law. Morey could not predict the reply from chinese people.  Lebron is correct.
Lebron's second point is people in modernity have tools to express themselves freely, and thinking only about yourself can be absent a care to the ramifications to others and Morey in particular was ignorant to the situation. Firs to freedom of speech. It is true, in modernity, throughout china or the usa, tools are available to express yourself freely. If you go to a chinese website like Weibo, not every post is against China or for the special administrative division in china known as hong kong. Morey as general manager to a sports team , tweeting in the usa, was clearly not in any danger or had any fear of ramifications from the chinese government or usa media. The chinese goverment was too far away or doesn't have a way to manipulate his finances while media in the USA rarely attacks owners or administrators. USA media likes cheap targets like employees or players. Sequentially, Morey was free from harm. Lastly, his ignorance.
The following is Morey's original quote: "Fight for Freedom. Stand for Hong Kong" End quote.
Morey's quote confirms Morey's ignorance. First, freedom. For Hong Kong to be in need of freedom suggest Hong Kong is being taken over by China. Hong Kong is a special administrative division in China. Hong Kong is a part of china. Hong Kong is not an independent republic. Hong Kong is equivalent to native american reservations or washington d.c. Do people consider native american reservations in the U.S.A. as independent republics? Is washington d.c. independent from the u.s.a.? he then reaffirms the faux independence of Hong Kong. Can people outside the usa stand for the district of columbia, where the white house sits, or the Cattaraugus Reservation in new york state? Morey assertion to a need for freedom or independence concerning Hong Kong is ignorant to the situation. The problem in Hong Kong is a matter of rights or oppression from the higher governmental level. And, it is in terms of rights or oppression that Morey in not speaking on it, shows greater ignorance. First, Hong Kong was started as a piece of the British Empire. Hong Kong never had freedom as a part of the british empire, including after world war II. If you think Hong Kong had freedom in the british empire then you must think Puerto Rico is free, as a territory of the U.S.A. in modernity. No territory is ever free. Second, China had no obligation to do anything outside its own desire when the British handed hong kong over circa 1995. Sequentially, China allowed Hong Kong a special administrative status on their own desires. Now it is true, that Hong Kong represented a quarter of China's port income at that time. And it is not hard to see that a Hong Kong less valuable as a city financially makes it lose value to Beijing. After said truth, the issue of Hong Kong is a myriad of things. It is part extradition battle, hong kong doesn't have extradition to mainland china for all cases especially concerning the fiscal ruling class or hong kong/part cultural friction, the mandarin culture is growing whether forced or not in a place groomed to view cantonese as a symbol unto itself  or its uniqueness/part governmental failures, from Hong Kong's leadership not working hard giving the time it was given by beijing to change hong kong's role while integrate it closer to the rest of china ASIDE the people's republic not making a greater effort to merge a special administrative division that was losing unique value/part mishandling to a simple clear murder case in my view that exposed how poorly the merger of hong kong into china has occured. But like Morey I am not Chinese, but unlike Morey I will not opine who is to blame more or less in any of said myriad things. And that is the greatest crime of Morey's statement, that lead to the third point of Lebron.
LEbron's third point was that many people, not confined to merely basketball players, could had been hurt, not only financially but physically- emotionally- spiritually. People have to be more careful what they say through electronic media.Negative consequence can grow more than we can imagine. Morey's statement was used by those in or out of china to be viewed as support for HOng Kong as if Beijing is all to blame or some interloper while used by those in our out of china to be viewed as support for the people's republic as if Hong Kong is seperated and acting as traitor. Any descent youtube search and you can hear where people , chinese or related to chinese have had personal schisms based on this issue and Morey only stoked fires. In the same way the media, cnbc plus fox plus most others,  in the u.s.a. showed similar fire stoking skills during current president donald trump's candidacy. We all know some of said schisms had all sorts of injuries, financial, physical, spiritual or other.
Lebron's last point was simple. These governmental/cultural issues are delicate and when Lerbon speaks on a subject, he is knowledgeable. Lebron wasn't speaking on China's government or any subdivision in it, speaking of the special administrative division known as Hong Kong. Lebron was speaking on Morey and how conveying messages when popular in modenrity has to be done with care or you create negativities, all to often unknown or seperate from yourself.
Lebron is totally correct or true.
In the transcript, which is linked in the Description of this audiobook, is a video from a youtuber, the duran < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jTJhxJX2Cs > which is a good viewing to get a balanced view to the HOng Kong issue. It goes into detail about events that led up to this clash.
I repeat Lebron said nothing wrong concerning Morey or China as a whole or any part from it.

-----------------------------------------

Title: Lebron's statement part 2
A chinese man from hong kong stated < https://sports.yahoo.com/ted-cruz-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-cosign-congressional-request-that-nba-suspend-activities-in-china-021745024.html > , through unconfirmed translation that I paraphrase, that he thinks lebron is no longer great but good and that a difference exist between a great basketball star and a hero.
First, assessment to lebron as a basketball player can be statistical or philosophical. the philosophical is up to each person, the statistical shows itself he is one of the greatest in this era. As for lebron being a hero. no basketball player is a hero but every athlete can speak truth. Morey wasn't a hero for his tweet, he was an interferer from a distance. Lebron wasn't a hero for his comment but he was more than a basketball player, lebron was an honest man, maybe that chinese basketball fan from hong kong can learn from lebron and be honest about hong kong going forward. One thing I know, for any team to work most positive, on the basketball court or off, the teammates must work together giving or providing to each other with as much prescience as possible from their erudition or wisdom. The chinese basketball fan position through his translated words shows he is not being prescient or his erudition or wisdom is not at a level to help him be so.
< https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rOeZO8T0pg >

In amendment, the following is not about lebron's quote exactly, but about the responsibility lebron referred to.... Ocasio Cortez side Ted Cruz found unity between the elephant and donkey concerning this china issue.
This proves how many monied interests are involved in the usa involvement in the media position to the  scenario in china between the special administrative division known commonly as hong kong and the remainder of the people's republic of china. A special administrative zone is like washington d.c. in the usa.
Why are these parties, who can't come together to make positive functional legislation in the usa, able to come together for a part of china, considering the only people it will hurt are people living in china, whether citizens to china or statians, people from the usa, in china.
People like cruz and cortez couldn't unite on Kaepernick but can unite on Hong Kong? that is telling

-------------------------------------

Title: Zlatan and Major league soccer with a slice of Pulsic in US Soccer please
Jimmy Conrad made a point < https://twitter.com/JimmyConrad/status/1187586483214925824 > . I paraphrase him, that he feel he can start in LA Galaxy's backline now eight year after retirement. While proving his point is not the issue, he beg a question, that he did not have space to suggest, even if he wanted. The question is simple. If LA Galaxy is supposed to be a top team in MAjor LEague Soccer, then how can a retired player make that statement. Can you imagine Jimmy Conrad saying that about Barcelona/Atletico Madrid/Manchester City/Bayern Munich/Juventus/Flamengo/River Player ? Many people have stated Zlatan is false for his comments to Major LEague Soccer. But, I recall the less vocal Thierry Henry or Andrea Pirlo or Bastian SChweinsteiger. During Henry's time in New York RedBulls or Andrea Pirlo's time in NYC Football Club or Schwiensteiger's in Chicago Fire can anyone suggest those clubs showed ambition or planning and sequentially ownership that is serious about success?
Each player I just mentioned is a world cup winner, a player deemed a legend at a club in UEFA, france side arsenal, italy side ac milan or juventus, germany side bayern munich respectively. Those players wasted their time and so did Rooney at DC United or Zlatan currently still at LA Galaxy. Major LEague soccer teams are not serious about success. It is that simple. US media and the financial fan environment in the u.s.a. allows a negative sports league, Major league soccer, to be deemed a shining light.
Zlatan is telling the truth. But, the problem is not Major LEague soccer. THe real problem is USSoccer.
Phil Schoen asked people on his facebook page <  https://www.facebook.com/officialphilschoen/posts/962578674077939?__xts__%5B0%5D=68.ARDP_s0DsO_tAHjg1eDLpdXnMg3dO918I13JlgkK8499-oeOtV0WNgDHVVdiaC-Gp_tOCIzvveV4xSPdarM8EfKNwI98tQBumIRNe8x_oz4htGFx3O8oLpxXfmb6bl3H3LbYd0IRwWTTs9tQWU5ek8YvnTJdk41G4qT-tTPAn7F4lRAhHHLJIcNudNJdQIZkvmO3rmnto0Rg901GzPPjJjtWKPKuYqvnfVSIGw8EE506v6fyB1ABxBEPtKdRQ42I1nFLTLdPI-KIceSIH24DAf69wJ7XFgjprXRdkzjZ7AtjbhMgkEUHa0ssPPUDtMiA1v4-HLvImrep9CSZq48&__tn__=-R > to vent  on USSoccer and I said the following.
Begin quote "Mr Schoen, I do not know if the following is a vent, and it definitely will not be comprehensive as your vent. But, I remember being a teenager who played soccer every day and had no local club, no league no anything. Streetball and a disconnected secondary school team. Then fifa said the usa will have a league. In my head i thought wow! I thought NYC was going to be full of teams. So many communities, so many people who love the game. In my head I saw something closer to the brasilian set up than the nfl. Then reality hit, the ussoccer organization i did not comprehend or know aside the nfl influence i didn't realize was involved, and MLS was born. In the end of the day, ussoccer allowed the creation of MLS and then both parties went about a plan that was never going to be as good as possible. The problem is the financial potency of the parties behind ussoccer/mls aside the administrative hindrances in ussoccer/mls mean the only way change can occur is if someone has a lot of money to push them or the bureaucracy aside. That is a tall order" end quote
The problem is the financial winds are in play and will take a very large amount of money to correct now, thus, USSoccer is on a road it can not leave from... concerning the men's game. you see this in the media coverage to Pulisic to MLS in the USA which is the plot the monied interests behind ussoccer planned. The monied interest behind us soccer want usa players hyped absent warrant. They want MLS teams hyped absent warrant. This controls the media narrative as most online will follow the media narrative. MLS teams have never won the concacaf champions league or its predescessor tournaments twice in a row and in truth, barely make the final. Yet, in the media MLS is a comparative league to Liga MX. You see this in UEFA, to be fair, that is why the EPL is deemed greater than la liga in spain or serie a in italy even though epl teams do not dominate the u.e.f.a. champions league. Confederation cup tournaments for clubs allow the best teams from each league to compete against each other, its results prove the quality of the clubs and by extension the leagues they are from. Liga MX is not only better than MLS, it is overwhelmingly better, and the proof is the concacaf champions league where MLS teams have a role no greater than the leagues from the fiscally impoverished countries in the caribbean or central america.
BUT, US Soccer has one zone it can undo its dysfunction absent a need for finances beyond extraordinary. That place is in the womens soccer system. I watched the NWSL semifinals < https://aalbc.com/tc/blogs/entry/249-richard-murray-thoughts-version-2/page/8/?tab=comments#comment-733 > and comparing it any from the Liga MX Femenino compeititons I have watched < https://aalbc.com/tc/blogs/entry/249-richard-murray-thoughts-version-2/page/7/?tab=comments#comment-696 > NWSL is already inferior to LigaMX Femenino in a soccer playing sense. NWSL's success is the role the national collegiate athletic association has in womens soccer, as the last womens world cup had only three teams that did not have a former NCAA player. Women around the world enjoy the student athlete collegiate experience as most countries are negative or absent when it comes to female athletics in general. Sequentially, NWSL gets access to a strong amateur culture that over time will be undone, but for now is very viable. But, the NWSL project has serious problems in its planning from above. The league is not merely the third incarnation of a womens league but it has no team in california. How can a project be considered serious absent a team in california. Consider that the english womens program used to be aligned to NWSL and is now aligned to continental UEFA. NWSL has some advantages but most come from external sources, the NCAA or womens opportunity in the usa itself.
The dysfunction is made most clear in the expansion franchise in Louisville. Now, for the record, I support the expansion of the national womens soccer league. But  I oppose, first the lack of admittance in media that the womens program can be changed by USsoccer absent large financial entries, second the denial in those who want changes in the NWSL that all the best changes require extreme contrast to the us sporting landscape. ... As always, when I suggest change,  I end with giving my suggestions.
Womens soccer through fiscal revenue or cultural linkage does not have the same scenarios that allow the mens soccer model in the usa to be utilized in it.
First, each state in the usa, needs to have their own womens soccer league table, that utilizes relegation and promotion, all set in the same time frame, meaning every league will be in the calendar year or between two calendar years but every league in every state must start and end around the same time, the team at the top of the first tier being the champion of the state.  This one act means a team like western new york flash no longer has to be placed in a lesser role with a purposeful ownership.Teams in California do not have to worry about traveling to new york city to exist. Owners to teams can be more than millionaires or billionaires but can be open to phenotypical or genderwise or linguisitic or other racial demographics that have a smaller financial footprint than white males, in the usa. Said non white male owners also will open up youth programs in their communities through the clubs.That will allow a saturation into the multiracial society in the usa that all sports lack currently. The competitiveness will spur long term improvement in each state as nothing separates the better from the best like relegation or promotion. Second, the champions from each state will be part of a fifty team us open cup. I suggest a one leg phase in each round. Third, the name change is simple from National womens soccer league to the National Womens Soccer Leagues. ... I realize many may suggest I am asking too little or not enough. But, when you look at the most successful womens or mens programs throughout humanity, clubs have a huge role in the development of players, more than the football associations. The key is to allow clubs to grow throughout, something that has occured in UEFA or COnmebol but has been denied in russia/china/usa.  The most important point is, USSoccer can make this change now, absent a huge financial investment or lose. Womens ways do not have to be mens ways. Those in the sport media need to push that Womens soccer in the usa can be improved in ways other than mens soccer and those changes do not require the fiscal cost that are highly prevalent in mens soccer.

Flamengo vs Gremio 102302019

Bruno Henrique Goal- the referee in this match did his best to aid Gremio or keep gremio on the pitch, but a penalty and many fouls were let go. It seems Gremio was favored. But, like in the first leg, Flamengo kept plugging away and finally it clicked. What I love is the two former santos players: Bruno Henrique/Gabriel Barbossa made the goal, though it was started by a midfield zone tak eby Everton Ribeiro.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcWAd2scm?fid=1034:4430850876497437

Gabriel Barbossa 1- A gremio defender made a header away and Gabriel Barbossa hit it the first time
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcWHzxKnA?fid=1034:4430855461090196

Gabriel Barbossa 2- Bruno Henrique earned the penalty . Santos to Santos , brilliance. Flamengo just another team living off of those Pisces brewed in the Santos community in Sao Paulo.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcWIk19og?fid=1034:4430855976993352

PAblo MAri- it was not a free header, nor was it easy, the angle was world class, like some of the best german headers of the ball. So much power, and an odd angle in close range.  
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcWNPxejh?fid=1034:4430859470868212

Rodrigo Caio- the goal was brilliant, even better angle than MAri's but broke free from Gremio sleeping. The face of the gremio coach though:)
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcWOxAaW0?fid=1034:4430859869059433

In the first leg, Video Assisted Reveiwing, took four goals from Flamengo. In the second leg, Flamengo showed their mentality and continued their barrage and was sharper this time.
River Plate vs Flamengo will be a great match, too bad it is a one off. Flamengo and River in the end, were better than their opponents. The idea is the best of the best.

uefa champions league 10232019 #cfc #ajax #intermilan #dortmund #uefacl

Chelsea vs Ajax fc

michy batshuayi - pulisic was not the key. Pulisic drove to the end line and made a low cross, if anything, it was alonso reading the possibility between the low cross and batshuayi and batshuayi being prepared to score if the ball game to him was key. The pundits on tnt are really poor, their commentation panders to the usa market. if usa fans can accept a poor player, then ussoccer has more problems than not.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcTWAbT69?fid=1034:4430749223579360

Chelsea the team, look good. Willian has earned his ten shirt or spot on the team as in the past, and why Frank Lampard supported him. Pulisic is getting media shouts cause of his national team and the media power in the usa If Pulisic was playing for slovenia nothing would be said of him and he would not had been sold to chelsea. When you look at the players starting for chelsea, pulisic does not warrant over any.Tammy Abraham is the leading goal getter. Mount or Hudson-Odoi are faster and better in the attacking midfield role. Willian is the top goal getter or assist player in the squad. Jorginho is a better passer. Kovacic is a more versatile player. Pulisic does not warrant a start over them. Pulisic is like Coutinho. A player given a lot of praise in media but not in a team where the position he needs is available. Pulisic need to be in a team that need a number 10.
At halftime some fans or pundits suggest woefullness in chelsea, but I oppose that. Tammy Abraham has held the ball up well most times and fought for balls to be won, even with some bad layoffs. Hudson odoi has terrorized the ajax right back even though he missed some strikes on goal. Mount has linked up well even though he hasnt cut through lines enough. Willian has offered width continually and modulated well between sectors, even though he hasn't linked up well so far. Kovacic has broke from midfield well even though he hasn't take a strike from distance. Chelsea have played well. This is the first season under lampard, and the team looks well. YEs, they are not gelled together but this is the first season where this team's blend of experience/youth is together. The fans or pundits judging them harshly are missing the point.
Tammy Abraham nor Willian had a bad game. The synch in the team collectively was off today. But, pulisic side batshuayi when they came in, did not offer improvement, it was a prepared switch. Hudson-Odoi had the worst game in that he never found his sharpness though he had a ton of chances. Pulisic tripped twice in the match, absent any pressure.

Inter Milan vs Borussia Dortmund

Lautaro Martinez- again, Dortmund never convince me they are a big team. It is either the connection to the u.s.a. , getting young usa players, or the german media trying to boost dortmund to manipulate the conversation on the bundesliga. It is misplaced. Dortmund are not a top team in uefa.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcUhCuzTA?fid=1034:4430762586647042

sebastian esposito- he telegraphed the placement to the penalty
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcULZ5lQ7?fid=1034:4430781268096080

Candreva- he made a similar run overpowering his marker earlier, this time, his angle was to the goal and he risked not passing but scored brilliantly

copa libertadores 10222019

River plate vs Boca Juniors Copa Libertadores

Jan Hurtado goal- the set piece made it a great opportunity if a Boca player can place the ball back into play, it was and River was caught out.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcNKt23sV?fid=1034:4430511330784995

The key was the first leg. Marcelo Gallardo grows as a coach in this tournament. I think he is very wise to remain at River until a proper opportunity present itself. I think Guangzhou evergrande or inter miami need to be his next stop. Both cause the environment will let him test how he handles being a coach outside his familiar argentina. HE has played in three countries. Argentina/France/USA. I wanted him to be the new coach of Olympique Lyonnais but based on his status, he can only be the next coach of psg, which may not happen if tuchel achieves the tout trophees season. The problem I have to UEFA clubs is non that are quality are available. Bayern is settled as coutinho/lewandowski and company are playing electric soccer. PSG is settled as tuchel seem to get wins even though the squad has various injuries all the time. Juventus just got Sarri and have not hired a non italian coach. Barcelona nor Real MAdrid nor MUFc nor MCFC seem balanced in their administration to have patience a gallardo project.
Boca Juniors huffed and puffed but didn't have the goal killer gene in their boots. Thus Gallardo setting up River to absorb pressure and counter was masterful strategy .

uefa champions league 10222019

Atletico madrid vs Bayer Leverkusen
No felix through injury or morata to start with.

Morata goal- Morata cam eon and Lodi crossed to him . As a note Lemar started the play.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcKudeV1o?fid=1034:4430385925300611

Jimenez was forced off early through injury, it wasn't terrible, and it is a test to atleti's depth. Atleti do not have a large goal getter. But between diego costa/alvaro morata/joao felix/lemar/correa Atletico MAdrid have a large load of goals when each players performs their best. Sequentially, the key is always defense first.

Galatasaray vs Real Madrid

Real Madrid must win this match of face exiting the uefa champions league. Galatasaray will have the day of days if we can defeat Real Madrid and win this match.

Toni Kross goal- read the possibility well, galatasaray defended but in the trenches.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcLbg9fKK?fid=1034:4430412416760832

Real MAdrid attacked Galatasaray from the opening minute with such energy, it would had startled a lesser team. Galatapalace did well, but were broken through. To be fair, galatapalace had a very good opportunity to score, but the lack of sharpness in scoring is present in today's match for the turkish giants. Muslera was brilliant today and the team played as a team. 1-0 is a true score to how this game played out. Galatasaray had good chances.

NWSL 2019 SEmifinals

NWSL Semifinal Reign FC vs North Carolina Courage

Thoughts
circa 4:35 MEgan Rapinoe had a one tocuh opportuntiy at goal and she went for control, though her speed on the ball seem slow.
A woman I know, Queenjospeh will say by the 31:20 both teams did a lot of huffing and puffing. I repeat, the quality of soccer in ligamxfemenil is superior to the NWSL now. ... The end of the first half had a nice opportunity, but outside that, the effect of a poor competitive model in the NWSL is telling. The end of ninety minutes was an honest draw, but then something happened, the gas was empty in the seattle tank, reflective of Rapinoe's movements all game. While North carolina seemed to get faster. North Carolina athletically are stronger than any other nwsl team and that was exposed in the extra time 3-0 goal swing by the Courage on the Reign.
I apologize for a tech issue in the crystal dunn  goal not being present.

NWSL Semifinal Portland Thorns vs Chicago Red Stars

Thoughts
The goal from World cup winner Yuki Nagasato to Goal MAchine Sam Kerr was in the eight minute and the potency those two can bring. After the goal, the Chicago counterattack was on. Portland's stalwart Christine Sincalir, is like Megan Rapinoe, both seem very stiff in the legs, and in need of a lesser role or another role. They are both able to play but sometimes a clubs ambitions require that oft cited blend of youth side experience, that portland or seattle lack.
Congratulations to Chicago Red Star to finally reach a nwsl cup playoof final. Congratulations to Sam Kerr for getting her first playoff goal

Videos
Sam Kerr goal- YUki Nagasato is a great creative force, who also can play a physical game. This is Sam Kerr's first playoff goal, so she is on a mission.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IcsPV3U32?fid=1034:4429707689590353

Sam Kerr cross- Kerr made a good run and crossed for her teammate, but her teammate was not ready. A good note from Jeen Hildrith side Aly Wagner in the pundit box that not only is Sam Kerr the historic goal leader in NWSL but she is tied for most assist.If Real Madrid are wise they get Sam Kerr to be their first center forward. She is relentless and can perform brilliance.

have you heard of the Military world games?
I hadn't and then I saw a tweet from xinhua news about the current edition being held in china, wuhan to be exact.
The first version was held in 1995 and it repeated every four years with a winter edition added recently. but one of the most interesting things is the trophy count.
Here are the countries ahead of the usa
1     Russia (RUS)    243    174    133    550
2     China (CHN)    178    138    126    442
3     Italy (ITA)    84    82    103    269
4     Brazil (BRA)    81    71    66    218
5     South Korea (KOR)    44    38    46    128
6     Poland (POL)    38    46    50    134
7     France (FRA)    38    33    46    117
8     Germany (GER)    30    56    60    146
9     North Korea (PRK)    30    25    28    83
10     Ukraine (UKR)    29    50    58    137
11     Kenya (KEN)    25    25    23    73

When you look at this list you note a key aspect, all these countries have a large relationship to their military.
Russia through the soviet era, same with china, have a huge modern culture of military service. The usa is mostly enlisted while russia/china while they have many not in the military have a huge culture of military families.
Then you look below, brazil/poland/north korea/ukraine/germany, each was relatively recently a soviet country which meant the military was a huge part of the system as private ownership was disallowed or currently/recently had regimes that enforced a strengthening of their military.
Italy, France, Kenya were never soviet, or had recent regimes that emphasized the military aspect in their country. But, obviosuly, a vigor in france/italy/kenya exist in their military community.

In the winter games the usa is not present, as a trophy earner at all

1     Russia (RUS)    29    16    14    59
2     Italy (ITA)    25    19    18    62
3     France (FRA)    24    21    20    65
4     China (CHN)    6    11    8    25

This is the top four. It proves how large this tournament is. I think this tournament will trump the olympics.

weekend 10192019

Atletico madrid vs Valencia in Spain - By 24:21 Atleti had four solid chances, the issue is not the chances but the sharpness.  PArtay was taken off and then Morata was taken off, and then Arias missed a sitter, Felix then gets injured <looks like a few weeks>, and then Daniel parejo scores. A rough day, unlucky, but the season is long. Atleti won the season last time at the last day, so Simeone knows to rotate the squad and get them into this project. Pundits will hate or dislike or call coward, bbut Simeone is being wise, long term.
Diego cOsta goal - Atleti had a dominance of chances but did not finish them well.  The valencia player moved his arm to the ball

Borussia Monchengladbach vs Borussia Dortmund in germany - my Fohlen started the season slow but the legs have gotten strong and we have found ourselves atop the table. I can not recall the last time Gladbach defeated Dortmund in the battle of the Borussia's this match to me is needed as Bayern had dropped points. Gladbach need this win for me, to have a chance at topping the table at the end of the season  DIE FOHLEN!!

VAR disallow- I admit i would had accepted the goal. The foul call is a save, but it worked in die fohlen's favor. Dortmund eventually got this goal from an assist from hazard to reus.

Real Madrid vs Mallorca in Spain- Mallorca scored early and while the referee favored real madrid in some fouling situations. Mallorca put on a collective defensive masterclass. The number of individual interceptions was brilliant in this match.

Lago Junior goal -  lovely curler , the point by phil schoen about james rodriguez over gareth bale and the lack of a defensive recovery from rodriguez was smart in this goal.

Naomi Osaka - I do not know Naomi osaka personally but Naomi Osaka's choice makes sense. First most of her sponsorships come from japan. Second, the current usa environment may feel disenchanting to Naomi. Between japan and haiti, her relationship to the USA from a historical level need not be positive. japan was attacked using nuclear weapons and haiti was interferred with negatively infinite number of times, and to this day. Lastly, the immigrant stance in the usa as compared to japan is the last amount of convincing. JApan is well known to be a place hard on foreigners on outsiders, but japan doesn't make false promises to outsiders or foreigners and they don't condone attacks on immigrants in their country as opposed to the usa, where attacks on immigrants is in most places acceptable, whether from governmental entities or private.

Venting in the USA

My comment on a post where Phil schoen ask all to vent about the usmnt
Mr Schoen, I do not know if the following is a vent, and it definitely will not be comprehensive as your vent. But, I remember being a teenager who played soccer every day and had no local club, no league no anything. Streetball and a disconnected secondary school team. Then fifa said the usa will have a league. In my head i thought wow! I thought NYC was going to be full of teams. So many communities, so many people who love the game. In my head I saw something closer to the brasilian set up than the nfl. Then reality hit, the ussoccer organization i did not comprehend or know aside the nfl influence i didn't realize was involved, and MLS was born. In the end of the day, ussoccer allowed the creation of MLS and then both parties went about a plan that was never going to be as good as possible. The problem is the financial potency of the parties behind ussoccer/mls aside the administrative hindrances in ussoccer/mls mean the only way change can occur is if someone has a lot of money to push them or the bureaucracy aside. That is a tall order

GlobOL - As someone who has found the joy of watching mexican womens soccer, I think Aulas is making a financial error. Liga MX Femenino will become a better league than NWSL in terms of play sooner rather than later and with the weak latin american stance on womens soccer, poised to make big dollars in the latin american market. I agree to Rabeeta <offsidebeet> that Aulas spends more money on womens soccer than any other club but He needs to be careful where he spends money on the ol feminine extension in the american continent. USA is a short term rise but mexico is a long term diamond.
Add to the fact the rising anti statian position throughout the usa in public. I think aulas need to make the new team in canada or mexico.
LAstly, a team in mexico will allow Aulas the chance to organize along the same lines as ol in france.
Aulas to buy an existing NWSL franchise , even though it will be very difficult.

#Tigres vs #Necaxa #LigaMXFemenil

Before the Match
Tigres is third in the table, five points behind the leader. Necaxa is the bottom of the table. By table results I expect a blowout.  

Videos

Introducing the match
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbzIyFAEB?fid=1034:4427586881940552

Trevino save 1- the strike was straight to her from the Tigres player but, it was close range and her hands are not the hardest.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbzLp5YiM?fid=1034:4427590572948358

Trevino save 2- this was the save of the game when i saw it, used a foot to knock it away.  
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbzMDlHTk?fid=1034:4427591109822070
Lizbeth Ovalle try - great attempt,on target, good power, the Necaxa defender saved it <apologize for not catching the number> not the necaxa keeper
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbzPmCVKO?fid=1034:4427592993075786

Lizbeth Ovalle goal - the cross was the key. It forced the Necaxa defenders to handle the situation and they did not. The situation or cross was not beyond the necaxa defenders control, but they did not control it. Ovalle was right place right time, if necaxa defenders made a mistake, and the defenders did.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbzU09R4W?fid=1034:4427595488410323

Trevino save 3- nice save, the strike was to the near post, but it came fast, and the keeper couldn't move quickly or give away the far post.
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbA2dAsWy?fid=1034:4427600035291304

Belén Cruz goal- goals from crossing situations, and a Necaxa setup that has not yet figured how to handle it. To be honest, necaxa seem a little down on themselves too as losing can drain you of focus.  
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbA7SDzxf?fid=1034:4427604187624590

Trevino save 4- the header from the tigres player was excellently placed, but Trevino showed a great balance of perception side athleticism in this save.  
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbA8EvsoN?fid=1034:4427604900431461

Natalia Gómez Junco goal- no one followed her, she made a late run, all the goals necaxa let in were from crosses mishandled, to be fair, the coach to necaxa, a woman, is in a minor project and has to overcome players who probably haven't been given the best environment to grow, so I hope she can keep her job and grow this project
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbAjDANDJ?fid=1034:4427611284130907

María Fernanda Elizondo goal- Trevino saved the strike but didn't hold it and the ball fell to Elizondo.  
https://www.weibo.com/tv/v/IbAjDANDJ?fid=1034:4427611284130907

Trevino save 5- a penalty earned from a rough tackle by Andrea Villalobos. Captain Liliana Mercado took it but it was read well by Trevino.

Post-Match thoughts

Necaxa allowed a free header from the first set piece Tigres had. Tigres did not utilize clear chances in front of the Necaxa goal. The Necaxa goalkeeper was under pressure instantly. If anything, the lack of shaprness of focus on the part of tigres was the worst sign from tigres. Champions murder ruthlessly.  In the 16th minute Necaxa could had shocked Tigres but they failed to. … Trevino is getting great experience as a keeper on Necaxa. It is not easy to be on a team in midst of a losing streak, the worst in the league. But, good learning, I hope the Necaxa players in general can survive this season.  … Tigres hammered Necaza in the score line but Necaxa had a few chances themselves to score and be dangerous. I think necaxa need a new season to reboot the points, but if they keep working on the defensive setup it will come eventually, Necaxa must keep their squad together and fight on. Tigres, were very sloppy in this match and prove why they are not top of the table. In winning sometimes teams expose why they don't win above all others. In losing, some teams show, they are working on being better but need more time.

#LeBron or #KingJames is correct on #Morey , I will tell you why
The article linked below is a source to what is wrong with sport media aside what is wrong with media in general.
The author of this post ladens the entire post with a negative preposition toward the people's republic of china or lebron james while a positive preposition on the special administrative division in the people's republic of china known as hong kong or Daryl Morey.
The following is Lebron James Quote:
"When you’re misinformed or you’re not educated about something, and I’m just talking about the tweet itself, you never know the ramifications that can happen ... Yes, we all do have freedom of speech. But at times, there are ramifications for the negative that can happen when you’re not thinking about others and you’re only thinking about yourself. I don’t want to get into a feud with Daryl Morey, but I believe he wasn’t educated on the situation at hand and he spoke. ...So many people could have been harmed — not only financially, but physically, emotionally, spiritually. Just be careful about what we tweet, what we say and what we do. Yes, we do have freedom of speech, but there can be a lot of negative that comes with that, too. ... I think when we talk about the political side, I think it’s a very delicate situation. Very sensitive situation ... For me personally, if any of you guys know me or always cover me, you guys know when I speak about something, I speak about something I’m very knowledgeable about"
What from Lebron's quote is false. Morey is not from hong kong or china. He is not chinese,and Morey's quote suggested misinformation or miseducation. Cause morey went to the massachusetts Institute of technolgoy does not bar him from being ignorant or biased.  And Lebron is correct, the usa based basketball players  playing in china while such a message was being conveyed were placed in danger. If a ball player would had been hurt, Morey was to blame. And Morey's tweet was not for the betterment of anyone but Morey himself.
Morey's original tweet is the following: "Fight for Freedom. Stand for Hong Kong"
First, let us focus on the first part of his quote. Fight for freedom. Hong Kong is not an independent country. Hong Kong is part of China, in the same way native american reservations are a part of the united states of america. He then reaffirms the faux independence of hong kong , as stand for hong kong. Can people outside the usa stand for the district of columbia or the Cattaraugus Reservation in new york state? No, cause each of these places is a part of the united states of america , and while the overwhemling majority history from the native american in the usa or the greater american continent is from the european colonial era to now  negative, none will deem their plight one that warrant an external call to freedom. Lebron said Morey spoke ignorantly as well as foolishly, and he endangered others. Lebron is correct. Moreover, Lebron stated these issues are delicate. And, again lebron is correct. Lebron didn't opine on chinese affairs, which is what the entire scenario in Hong Kong is, a chinese affair. Morey did. Lebron opined on Morey opining on CHinese affairs. And Lebron is correct, Morey was negative in every way for doing it. In parallel, the author to the article linked below was negative for speaking false to lebron's words and speaking positive to that of morey. The last crime from the article author was the use of Enes Kanter's words to falsely support his position. First, Enes Kanter's situation is in no way connected to the people of hong kong. The people of hong kong are chinese citizens living in china who have an issue with their government. Enes kanter, born in switzerland, raised in turkey, living in the usa , has been vocally critical to the turkish government from a distance. The people of hong kong are not supporting an overthrow of the chinese government, which Kanter suggested happen in turkey. LAstly, Kanter's vocalization, against Turkey while living in the usa, placed his family in danger. Kanter's choice to do what Morey did, led to the result LEbron warned of in  Lebron's statement. The article author by using Kanter supported Lebron's point.
...
Hong Kong is a part of china, a part of china that was never an independent state or free. Hong Kong was a part of the british empire that china reclaimed, under no supervision. I restate, china had no obligation to do anything when they reclaimed Hong Kong. The people's republic of CHina chose to make Hong Kong a special administrative division and allow Hong Kong's legal system to differentiate between the remainder of China. This was an allowance given to Hong Kong by China, and no one else. China itself allowed Hong Kong the freedom they have now, not britain, not the usa. Hong Kong's leadership did not use the time given to them, from being a major source of china's economy <near 25%> to currently being circa five percent or less, to change the role or purpose of hong kong fitting where china is now. And, the legal scenario that prompted this tide. When a chinese man married a woman in hong kong, murdered her in taiwan, and then used the extradition laws in hong kong to slip away from the people's republic of china's jurisdiction. Hong Kong made this problem for Hong Kong. This has nothing to do with freedom or oppression or international ways.

First Amendment
Ocasio Cortez side Ted Cruz found unity between the elephant and donkey concerning this china issue.
This proves how many monied interests are involved in the usa involvement in the media position to the  scenario in china between the special administrative division known commonly as hong kong and the people's republic of china. A special administrative zone is like washington d.c. in the usa.
Why are all these parties able to come together against china, considering the only people it will hurt are ball players in china from the usa.
thoughts anyone, sometimes sports issues go into the realm of government, ala kapaernick, but unlike kapaernick why such union, and this latino blend of cruz and cortez... again thoughts?
https://sports.yahoo.com/ted-cruz-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-cosign-congressional-request-that-nba-suspend-activities-in-china-021745024.html

Second Amendment
A chinese man from hong kong stated, through unconfirmed translation that I paraphrase, that he thinks lebron is no longer great but good and that a difference exist between a great basketball star and a hero.
First, assessment to lebron as a basketball player can be statistical or philosophical. the philosophical is up to each person, the statistical shows itself he is one of the greatest in this era. As for lebron being a hero. no basketball player is a hero but every athlete can speak truth. Morey wasn't a hero for his tweet, he was an interferer from a distance. Lebron wasn't a hero for his comment but he was more than a basketball player, lebron was an honest man, maybe that chinese basketball fan from hong kong can learn from lebron and be honest about hong kong going forward.

real madrid vs granada in spain- this real madrid doesn't have a super goal getter so the team has to score goals together to raise the goal tally on a day. In Courtois real madrid don't have a keeper that reacts fast enough, in areola, they don't have a keeper assured in his motions enough, as psg knew. Navas was better in both categories than either. So Real madrid don't have a spear point player or a dominant keeper for their galavanting style.

PSG vs Angers in France- Angers like Granada are looking to stay up, not challenge psg for the title. The angers coach said it best, i paraphrase a translation, defeating psg is not merely a step up but a staircase. Navas clean sheet, neymar score and is the talisman. great team balance in the squad even allowing the tinkering from tuschel, which ranieri would be accussed of negatively. Administratively, the onyl question is, why did it take years for psg to replace blaise matuidi?
Icardi goal- Neymar made it all setting it up, people forget, neymar isn't just a scorer he is a huge assister.

Gueye goal- he is the player replacement since matuidi left that psg needed most, he allows neymar to not need to play deep as much as he retrieves the ball, verratti to risk the defense in wide cause he is in the middle

Galatasaray vs GenClerbirli in Turkey
A goalless game, Galatapalace sold their two top goal scorers in the summer and have no replacement. Luckily the season in turkey is long.

Chelsea vs Southampton in england- the first half set the table, willian set up the second goal, kante made the third, game was over.Chelsea currently sit fifth in the table. Considering the situation at Tottenham/Manchester United/Everton this is a great position. Chelsea have not made any transfers, have played their youth, have a first time coach in the epl. The lampard chelsea is at its best when a team, no more or no less.

Atletico Madrid Vs Valladolid in Spain- Atleti players were fouled a lot in this match in attacking postures. FElix was played outwide in this match, not under costa/morata. And his game didn't thrive. But, Simeone is rotating and shuffling trying to keep players fresh and ready. the journey to and from russia was bound to have a lagging section, unfortunately vallodolid was it.
