Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso, presented by our friends at Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse. Wednesday's Europa League Final between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur is possibly the most important game in the financial history of Manchester United. It's obviously important in that sense for Spurs as well, it will give them a place at the Champions League table next season, but it's more of a necessity for United. For a club that had the 4th highest amount of revenue in the world last season but still lost £113m, they simply cannot afford to lose out on the over £100m that qualifying for the Champions League guarantees. Because of that and the placement of the two teams in the Premier League table, this match has the feel of a relegation playoff more than a European final. I think it will have that feeling of desperation as well. Kickoff is tomorrow at 3pm, watch on Paramount+. Atlanta United 2 drew 2-2 last night at Crown Legacy after goals from Cayman Togashi and Javier Armas. The 2's are on a 4-match unbeaten run and host Orlando on Friday night at Fifth Third Stadium in Kennesaw. In the NWSL, the Chicago Stars have moved a September match to Northwestern's lakefront Martin Stadium. According to Jeff Kassouf of The Equalizer and ESPN, the Stars' lease is up at SeatGeek Stadium at the end of the year and Northwestern could be in play as a new home for the club. Wednesday night will see the Concacaf W Champions Cup semifinals take place as  Club América host Gotham FC, while Tigres take on Portland Thorns at 10:30 p.m. later that night. The winner of the tournament will qualify for the newly formed FIFA Women's Club World Cup. Speaking of Club World Cup, Flamengo is planning to add Arsenal's Jorginho to their squad for the tournament according to Fabrizio Romano. Inter are still negotiating with Marseille for Luiz Henrique and Real Madrid are closing in on Benfica LB Alvaro Carrera in a 40-50 million Euro deal. It was also announced yesterday that Manchester City will prepare for the tournament at Lynn University in Boca Raton, FL. Expect more announcements like that around the country as teams get ready for the tournament. The first match in Atlanta is set for June 16 as Chelsea will face the winner of the play-in match between Club América & LAFC. New ticket options are available at FIFA.com/tickets. I'll be live on 92.9 The Game tonight with Atlanta Soccer Tonight at 10pm, you can also listen on the Audacy app or on-demand at the Off The Woodwork podcast. More Morning Espresso will be served up on Thursday morning here on the SDH Network.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso, presented by our friends at Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse. Another disappointing night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for Atlanta United, losing 1-0 to Philadelphia who go to the top spot in the Eastern Conference with the win. Personally, there were things I really liked about the shape change to play two central midfielders ahead of one holding midfielder and essentially two up top, although Miguel Almirón was essentially in a free role. However, it wasn't good enough on the night, the Union earned a deserved (although unlucky) penalty and converted to win 1-0. It doesn't get any easier for Atlanta United next weekend as they host the team level on points with Philadelphia in FC Cincinnati on Sunday night. Hot take alert, I'm a fan of the LA Galaxy announcing Greg Vanney's extension on Friday even though the team is still winless in regular season play in 2025. The negotiations started after Vanney won MLS Cup last December and were finalized recently. With the amount of injuries the Galaxy have tried to navigate this season, including to their 4 top attackers, a struggle was inevitable. A knee-jerk reaction to move on from Vanney after he rebuilt the club into a successful winning team would be the wrong move in my opinion. Crystal Palace earned their first major trophy by winning the FA Cup 1-0 over Manchester City. That will qualify them for the Europa League next year, their first time in a major European competition. Chelsea's women completed the domestic treble with their FA Cup win over Manchester United that saw USWNT members Catarina Macario score a goal and Naomi Girma marshal the backline to a clean sheet.Napoli and Inter both drew in Serie A yesterday, taking the title down to the wire. Their matches will be played on Friday with Napoli holding a one point advantage in the table. If they finish the night tied at the top of the standings, there will be a one-game playoff for the league title. PSV and Sporting won the Dutch and Portuguese top flight titles over the weekend respectively. Aberdeen defender Jack Mackenzie was hit by a plastic seat thrown by his own fans, intended for Dundee United fans celebrating on the field after their win that qualified them for Europe at the Dons' expense. He was bloodied and required treatment, the SPFL called the act "moronic". The great-great grandson of Ford Motor Company founder Henry Ford has become the majority shareholder of Scottish 2nd division side Livingston. Calvin Ford saw his new team win in their promotion semifinal. They will play either Dundee FC or Ross County for an opportunity to earn promotion to the Scottish Premiership. On the Club World Cup front, reports out of Spain indicate that an unnamed Brazilian club has made a "tempting" offer to Cristiano Ronaldo to join them for the tournament. Al Nassr is not in the event and Ronaldo is out of contract on June 30. Al Nassr also missed out on trophies this season and won't be in the Asian Champions League Elite tournament next season. Real Madrid paid the release clause for Bournemouth's CB Dean Huijsen. They have secured their new manager Xabi Alonso for the tournament, are working to bring in Trent Alexander-Arnold for the event as well, and reports indicate they could execute the buyback clause on Como's Nico Paz in time for the tournament as well. They are still chasing a left back too. New ticket options are available at FIFA.com/tickets along with hospitality opportunities at FIFA.com/hospitality.More Espresso coming tomorrow on the SDH Network.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso, presented by our friends at Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse. It's rivalry weekend in MLS, and it's kind of fitting that Atlanta hosts Philadelphia on Saturday night. Not sure if the league truly sees it as a rivalry, but it's felt that way on the field over the past few years. Philly won 3-0 earlier this season and Atlanta will be trying to build on their draw in Austin from Wednesday night. Philly came back to win 3-2 on a late goal from Tai Baribo against the LA Galaxy on Wednesday. Georgia HS state champions have been crowned the and the season will come to a close tonight in Duluth and in Macon. It's the 2A state championships in Macon, our friend Matteen Rad will be on the call for the NFHS Network there as Drew Charter's boys face Shaw while Pike County's girls play Savannah Arts. Madison Crews and I will be in Duluth for 5A as Roswell's girls try to finish the season unbeaten as they play Northgate while Sprayberry's boys try to knock off top ranked River Ridge. Join us on the NFHS Network starting at 5pm.Barcelona won their 28th La Liga title against their rivals Espanyol as Lamine Yamal scored another brilliant goal. It's a treble year for the Blaugrana as they added to their previously won SuperCopa and Copa del Rey. However, it wouldn't be Barcelona if there were stories about financial silliness. They're trying to get the VIP ticket sale completed that somehow allowed them to register Dani Olmo and Pau Victor done in order to help their accounts and salary limit for next season. Watch the video as I try to make sense of it all (probably failing to do so). Be on the lookout on our social media accounts (@SoccerDownHere) for clips from Jude Bellingham today as he spoke to FIFA this week about Real Madrid's ambitions for the upcoming Club World Cup. It's a big opportunity for them to start the Xabi Alonso era off right. They're also trying to add CB Dean Huijsen and LB Alvaro Fernandez ahead of the tournament. Inter is trying to add Marseille winger Luis Henrique as well as 3-4 other players for the tournament. They're also trying to win Serie A and the Champions League before that. They host 5th place Lazio this weekend while league leaders Napoli travel to relegation threatened Parma. A win for Napoli combined with a loss for Inter would send the trophy south to Naples. Anything else sees it come down to the final weekend. More in the video and podcast, Morning Espresso will be back on Monday morning to recap the weekend.Have a great weekend y'all!

Fotbalul din Franța se pregătește de o revoluție. Liga profesionistă de fotbal din această țară ar urma sa dispară și să fie înlocuită cu un model asemănător celui din Premier League, dar adaptat la specificul francez. Explică Tudor Furdui: Se pregătește o mică revoluție în fotbalul profesionist din Franța. Federația de fotbal din această țară a anunțat lunea trecută un nou proiect de organizare a fotbalului profesionist, o schimbare completă față de ceea ce a existat până acum. În timp ce cluburile franceze suferă foarte mult, ele aflându-se în umbra succesului european al lui PSG, Federația franceză vrea să conducă, în mare parte și competiția internă suprimându-i Ligii profesioniste de fotbal identitatea  juridică. La conducere ar urma să fie cluburile, fără intermediari, toate grupate în cadrul unei societăți care ar gestiona fotbalul profesionist.În urma anunțului său din 3 martie, prin care a cerut cluburilor să ia în considerare reforme în jurul a trei teme (conducere, strategie economică și control financiar), Philippe Diallo, președintele Federației în funcție din ianuarie 2023, a decis să ia măsuri. Deși vor mai fi câteva ajustări de făcut, Diallo vrea ca fotbalul profesionist din Franța să nu mai fie condus și organizat de câtre Liga Profesionistă de Fotbal. Cluburile din Ligue 1 și Ligue 2 vor deveni acționare la o societate ai cărei alți acționari vor fi : cu 13% CVC, organismul care finanțează deja campionatul francez și Federația franceză, care va avea o cotă preferențială cu drept de veto, în special pe problemele structurale adică formatele de competiție, numărul de promovări și retrogradări.Această nouă societate nu va mai fi doar o societate care gestionează probleme comerciale și economice, așa cum este în prezent, ci va avea în statut și ca obiect social organizarea campionatelor. Federația vrea să aibă sub control și inspecția financiară DNCG, dar și comisia de disciplină. Detaliile acestor aspecte nu au fost încă puse la punct, dar Federația dorește să pună la comun cât mai multe servicii pentru a reduce costurile de operare.Conducerea acestei societăți ar fi astfel comparabilă cu cea a oricărei societăți. Nu ar mai fi alegeri pentru  președinte. Un consiliu de administrație s-ar întruni pentru a numi directorii care ar putea fi concediați dacă obiectivele nu ar fi îndeplinite.  Antrenorii, jucătorii, arbitrii, și personalul administrativ ar putea fi reuniți în cadrul unui consiliu care ar  supraveghea bunul mers al lucrurilor. Acest model seamănă foarte mult cu ceea ce se face în Anglia în Premier League. De altfel, o sursă federală a destăinuit că va fi un model asrâemănător celui din Premier League, dar a la francaise, adică un model care ține cont de specificul francez.Noua organizare ar putea fi implementată pentru începutul sezonului 2026-2027Pentru a realiza acest nou model de organizare și conducere, legea trebuie schimbată. Acest lucru este posibil, deoarece senatorii Laurent Lafon și Michel Savin au elaborat recent un proiect de lege referitor la organizarea, managementul și finanțarea sportului profesionist. Acesta va fi examinat de senatori pe 10 iunie și ar putea fi adoptat de către Parlament în toamnă. Prin urmare, nu vor fi posibile modificări pentru sezonul viitor. Dar noua organizare ar putea fi implementată pentru începutul sezonului 2026-2027.Dincolo de această reformă majoră, Federația franceză vrea să impună noi reguli pentru a face ordine în finanțarea cluburilor, deorece unele dintre ele se află în pragul falimentului. Aceste reguli includ limitarea numărului de contracte de muncă și plafonarea masei salariale cu limite mult mai  restrictive față de cele existente. Plafonul de 70% din cifra de afaceri alocat salariilor totale ar putea fi mai mic. Organismul care conduce fotbalul francez dorește să se inspire din ceea ce UEFA a pus în aplicare ca parte a fair-play-ului financiar pentru cluburi. Federația vrea și o nouă distribuire a drepturilor TV pentru cluburi. Philippe Diallo își dorește să reechilibreze această distribuire în favoarea cluburilor cu cele mai mici bugete pentru a menține un minim de competitivitate și interes pentru competiție.În cele din urmă, Federația dorește să urmărească cu atenție situațiile când un proprietar posedă două sau mai multe cluburi. Aceste cazuri ar putea fi rezolvate eficient doar cu asistența celor de la FIFA sau UEFA.„Acesta este doar începutul procesului, dar cadrul este clar stabilit”, continuă această sursă federală, care precizează că lucrurile se vor face în etape. În primul rând, este esențial ca niciun club să nu intre în faliment în această vară, de aceea inspecția financiară DNCG trebuie să fie foarte strictă. După aceea,  trebuie semnat un acord privind drepturile TV cu un post de televiziune din piața TV, eventual Canal+, pentru a recâștiga fanii fotbalului. Și apoi transformarea statutelor și modificarea conducerii în sezonul următor, cu speranța că fotbalul francez își va îmbunătăți imaginea, atractivitatea și își va crește valoarea.

Apparently the force was with Sporting Kansas City on Star Wars Day on Sunday as they needed to make some history to come home away with the 1-0 victory vs the Galaxy, doing so without registering a single shot in the game.  While it wasn't necessarily the kind of historical moment SKC fans were hoping to be attached to, 3pts is 3pts, and it took a very organized professional performance defensively to accomplish, led by both centerbacks Jansen Miller and Robi Voloder, as well as goalkeeper John Pulskamp.If anything can be said of the Kerry Zavagnin era so far in Kansas City, it is that he has certainly raised the floor of the performances of the team.  Not once has the team ever felt out of a game, and the problematic mistakes that have been a bugaboo of the past seem to have been significantly reduced, if not outright eliminated.  That said, I am not sure the ceiling has been raised a ton in the process.  We'll discuss what we see as potential next steps to build on this foundation that Kerry is putting in place, and what our hopes are for the continued progression of the team this season.Finally we will talk about the Current's 2nd loss in a row, FIFA and CONCACAF's latest cash grab play for a Club World Cup spot, and do a preview of a matchup that will seem pretty familiar as Sporting KC heads to Portland this weekend, given they just played each other here in Kansas City just a few weeks ago.

En Ahora o Nunca, la mesa reacciona en tiempo real a la eliminación del Barcelona a manos del Inter en la emocionante y espectacular Semifinal de la Champions y destaca que el club azulgrana tuvo varias oportunidades de llevarse el triunfo en Milán, pero se encontró con un arquero Nerazzurri, Yann Sommer, en plan grande para ayudar al club italiano a avanzar a la Final. Asimismo, la mesa cuestiona si la eliminación afectará anímicamente al Barcelona para el Clásico ante Real Madrid en LaLiga o si la derrota motiva al equipo culé para vencer a los Merengues y prácticamente asegurar el título en LaLiga. Además, luego de que el TAS resolvió en contra del León para ratificar que queda fuera Mundial de Clubes, la mesa discute si la decisión fue justa y señala que la FIFA debería pelear contra la multipropiedad a nivel mundial y no sólo contra Grupo Pachuca.

Join Matt and Simon as they discuss the state of the crypto market, Bitcoin's latest price action, and which altcoins are outperforming. They also cover stablecoin adoption by major payment networks, FIFA launching its own blockchain, altcoin updates, and more.Key Takeaways Bitcoin (BTC) has increased for four consecutive weeks and is holding above a key long-term support level, increasing its likelihood of breaking higher in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, BTC dominance hit another four-year high of 64.9% during the week.Altcoins such as Solana (SOL), Sui (SUI) and Hyperliquid (HYPE) continue to break away from the rest of the market. Should BTC climb higher in the near term, these altcoins are best positioned to keep outperforming, in our opinion, as opposed to altcoins that lagged in recent times.The main macro event this week is the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary policy update. While interest rates are widely expected to remain steady, investors will closely monitor Fed Chair Jerome Powell's conference for any indications that the Fed's stance is changing.Stablecoin adoption continues to accelerate following a partnership between Visa and Bridge, a stablecoin infrastructure provider recently acquired by Stripe. The announcement came days after Mastercard announced its latest push into stablecoins.Altcoin updates discussed in this episode include Ethereum's ‘Pectra' upgrade happening this week—its first major upgrade in over a year—and Hyperliquid adding HYPE staking tiers.Timestamps:00:00 Bitcoin's Resilience and Market Dynamics03:12 Federal Reserve's Impact on Crypto Markets06:06 Stablecoin Adoption and Major Partnerships09:06 Apple's App Store Changes and Crypto Opportunities12:08 Sui's Basecamp Conference Insights14:49 Ethereum's Upcoming Upgrade and Market Sentiment17:52 FIFA's Blockchain Shift and Industry Trends21:01 Overrated and Underrated in Crypto

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Atlanta United scored first, but lost control of the match with Nashville afterwards. Following the goal, Nashville outshot Atlanta 10-2 and had 70% possession. They eventually found an equalizer and the match finished in an unfulfilling 1-1 draw. Atlanta is back in action next Saturday in Chicago against the Fire, who will be missing their goalkeeper Chris Brady following his red card in the first half of the Fire's 0-0 draw with Orlando.LA Galaxy lost last night in Kansas City 1-0 even though they didn't concede a shot, the goal was an own goal in the 13th minute. The Galaxy also lost both of their star wingers, Joseph Paintsil and Gabriel Pec, due to injury. Other MLS highlights of note include Vancouver going unbeaten in 10 games after a 2-1 win over RSL, Miami bouncing back from two home losses with a win over Red Bulls, and New England keeping their hot streak going since putting Carles Gil into a free role in their 3-5-2 shape.Parity is alive and well in the NWSL as the top 8 teams are separated by 4 points. Kansas City and Orlando are tied for the top spot with 15 points so far in the season.A verdict is expected tomorrow by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in the Club Leon case against FIFA over their spot in the Club World Cup. If FIFA's ruling is upheld, then we'll see the playoff game between LAFC and Club America go ahead. The winner of that would start the tournament here in Atlanta against Chelsea on June 16. Harry Kane has finally won a trophy after almost 700 games as a pro for club and country. Of course it wasn't straightforward... Bayern drew to RB Leipzig 3-3 on a late goal from the opposition and needed Leverkusen to slip up in their game later in the day, which ended 2-2 giving Bayern the title. Two big promotions, Pisa in Italy and Paris FC in France. Pisa hasn't been in Serie A since 1991 while Paris FC hasn't played in Ligue 1 for 46 years. Nothing beats Burnley's celebrations for getting back to the Premier League, they had Natasha Bedingfield on hand to sing the unofficial promotion anthem for them "Unwritten". She sang it for the fans at Turf Moor and the squad sang it with her in the locker room.Playoffs are set in Mexico and Argentina, they'll start next weekend. Champions League in Europe returns this week with Barcelona and Inter hopeful on injury returns while PSG and Arsenal try to shake off league losses over the weekend.More Espresso Tuesday on the SDH Network, presented by Oglethorpe University.

This podcast got too real — hookers, homelessness, doomsday prepping, adulting, Trump as pope, and the funniest moment in our show's history. It's pure chaos… and also kind of therapy. In this hilarious and wildly raw episode, Josh and Jacob dive deep into what it's really like being an adult in 2025 — and they don't hold back! From contemplating the end of the American Dream to reminiscing about playing FIFA with friends and dancing in Target, this is one of their most personal (and funniest) episodes to date. Whether it's the absurdity of Trump nominating himself as Pope, the emotional weight of becoming a parent in a collapsing world, or the pure comedic genius of Josh's new underwear, this episode swings hard between laughs and realness. The chemistry is off the charts — and so are the jokes. And yes, you will want to rewatch “the President Pope" bit again and again. If you've ever felt exhausted by adulthood, confused by media, or just needed to ugly-laugh at two grown men debating their grandpa names (Plip Plop or Kaiser Soze?), this is the episode for you. Come for the chaos, stay for the catharsis. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today we are in conversation with Clint Padgett, CEO / President at Project Success, Inc. From managing Olympic-scale projects for Coca-Cola to coaching project managers around the world, Clint dives deep into what makes planning work — and why most teams don't worry soon enough. We cover why bad bids ruin trust, how to lead without authority, and the mindset shift young PMs need most.Chapters:From the Navy to Global Projects (00:00)Our guest shares how his time as a Navy electrician led to a career managing Olympic activations — starting with a leap of faith during the 1996 Games.How You Plan a World Cup (04:04)Planning a FIFA event is surprisingly similar to planning a giant party. It's all about logistics, timing, and making sure the Coke is cold.Rookie Mistakes in Project Management (08:10)New PMs often rush to execution without planning. But skipping those first few days of structure creates weeks of rework.Leading Without Power (10:43)When you don't have authority, you lead through planning and trust. Without buy-in, you're just another task competing for attention.Planning Across Projects (14:08)When team members are split across five jobs, smart scheduling avoids overload. It all comes down to float, flexibility, and clarity.What People Get Wrong About Planning (17:02)Overly optimistic timelines and ignoring outsourced work are two of the biggest killers in project schedules. Time elapsed is what matters.Ask Dumb Questions, Early (20:10)Even “stupid” questions can catch unrealistic expectations. Collaborative planning gives teams space to challenge assumptions safely.People Over Process (24:13)Project success depends on human connection — not just task dependencies. Why real conversations still matter more than Slack threads.Plans Must Adapt (34:07)When the situation changes, great teams pivot. Don't let emotional attachment to a project cost another 6 months of effort.Sales Promises vs. Reality (40:01)When bids are made without planners, projects start on the wrong foot. Being the honest vendor might cost more — but builds lasting trust.Reliability Wins Over Price (46:11)The 2% more expensive team that delivers on time is always worth it. Clients don't just want cheap — they want confidence.The Worry Curve (48:58)His favorite concept: teams usually worry too late. Good planning moves the worry to the start — where it can still change outcomes.Go build something awesome!CHECK OUT THE PARTNERS THAT MAKE OUR SHOW POSSIBLE: https://www.brospodcast.com/partnersFIND US ONLINE: -Our website: https://www.brospodcast.com -LinkedIn:   / constructionbrospodcast   -Instagram:   / constructionbrospodcast    -TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@constructionbrothers?lang=en-Eddie on LinkedIn:   / eddie-c-057b3b11   -Tyler on LinkedIn:   / tylerscottcampbell  If you enjoy the podcast, please rate us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to us!

CONTENT WARNING - This show includes a sports massage. Not, like, as a free gift for you, though something could be arranged, maybe. Let's not completely rule that out right this minute. Anyway, no, it's a descriptive thing. One of our intrepid hosts finds himself needing of some physio so gets a sports massage. From two ladies. Both called Sophie. Look, if that sounds far fetched then don't blame me, I'm just giving you a heads up. The word "buttocks" is used. If that's the kind of thing that offends then, I dunno, start the show 10 minutes in. That's a rough guess as once this gets uploaded and ads are thrown in the mix my timings go straight out the window but 10 minutes should be safe... Beyond that, welcome to the latest episode of One Life Left! This week there's still no Super Special Keef but we have a jam packed show that includes potential Nintendo Game-Key Card shenanigans, the Post Trauma of releasing a game in the shadow of Oblivion, a footy game doing well (and it isn't PES, FIFA, EA, SWOS, Kick Off nor even Emlyn Hughes International Soccer!), Simon has a "hack" for getting cheaper Switch 2 upgrades and we ponder over an Outrun movie. We also have Ste reporting back on his recent trips to Switzerland and Reboot in Croatia, including all the gossip and The Art of Video Game Design covers delayed gratification!

Sports correspondent Dana Johannsen spoke to Lisa Owen.

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso from the SDH Network, brought to you by Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse.Champions League semifinals start today with Arsenal hosting PSG followed tomorrow by Barcelona hosting Inter. Second legs are next week. Arsenal are the favorites according to Opta to win the entire competition. Set pieces could be the margin against PSG. Arsenal have scored more goals from dead ball situations than any other team in the Premier League since the start of last season, while PSG have given up the largest proportion of goals from set pieces to their overall total in Ligue 1 this season. Luis Enrique, who has been the best manager in the world this season in my opinion, is trying to get his squad's momentum back after it has slipped a bit following clinching their Ligue 1 title. Inter are expected to fly to Barcelona today for tomorrow's match, after blackouts paralyzed Spain and Portugal yesterday. They won't have to repeat Barcelona's infamous 15-hour bus ride in 2010 when flights were grounded due to the volcano eruption in Iceland. Inter ended up winning that semifinal on their way to a treble. Today, they're trying to get back to their best after three straight losses without scoring. Marcus Thuram could be back in the team for the first time in a while to help change that tomorrow. Carlo Ancelotti is expected to take the Brazil job and be in place for their June World Cup qualifiers according to reports. Brazil is also expected to wear Jordan Brand red and black kits as an alternate for the 2026 World Cup, with their unveiling set for the March 2026 FIFA window. Christian Pulisic, according to Gazzetta dello Sport in Italy, is going to receive and contract extension and pay raise from Milan after leading the club with 16 goals in all competitions. Orlando City has signed an affiliation agreement with Black Knight Football Club, the owners of Bournemouth in England and Auckland FC in New Zealand. They also have large stakes in Lorient in France and Hibs in Scotland. The agreement will focus on player development, scouting, and commercial initiatives. Fernando Gago is out this morning as the manager at Boca Juniors. After failing to get the team into this year's Copa Libertadores and then losing the SuperClasico Sunday to River Plate, Gago will be out at Boca according to reports. Plenty more including World Cup tickets, USMNT player updates, and more in today's podcast. Check it out!More Espresso on Thursday on the SDH Network, presented by Oglethorpe University.

Remettre une coupe aux vainqueurs d'épreuves sportives est aujourd'hui un geste symbolique universel. Mais d'où vient cette tradition ? Pourquoi une coupe, et pas une médaille, une couronne ou un simple diplôme ? Pour le comprendre, il faut plonger dans l'histoire antique et médiévale, car l'origine de cette pratique remonte à plusieurs siècles, voire millénaires.1. L'Antiquité : des prix prestigieux mais sans coupeDans la Grèce antique, les vainqueurs des Jeux olympiques recevaient une couronne d'olivier sauvage (kotinos), symbole de gloire mais dépourvue de valeur matérielle. À Rome, les récompenses étaient plus concrètes : argent, objets de valeur, parfois même la liberté pour certains esclaves ou gladiateurs. Mais là encore, la coupe n'est pas encore une récompense codifiée.2. Le Moyen Âge : la coupe comme trophée et symbole festifC'est au Moyen Âge que la coupe commence à acquérir une signification particulière. Lors des joutes et tournois, les seigneurs ou souverains offraient aux vainqueurs des coupes en argent ou en or, souvent gravées et ornées, en guise de trophée. Mais à cette époque, la coupe n'est pas qu'un objet symbolique : elle est aussi utilisée pendant le banquet organisé après l'épreuve. Le vainqueur y boit à la santé de ses pairs, de son suzerain, ou de sa dame, dans une célébration qui mêle honneur, victoire et convivialité.Un exemple célèbre est celui du tournoi de Smithfield en 1390, organisé à Londres par Richard II d'Angleterre. Lors de ce grand tournoi, des coupes richement décorées furent remises aux chevaliers distingués, et le roi, selon les récits, fit porter à ses favoris des goblets d'argent remplis de vin épicé, que l'on trinquait à la victoire dans la grande salle du palais. Ces objets restaient ensuite comme souvenirs tangibles de leur exploit, et circulaient parfois comme de véritables trésors dans les familles nobles.3. Renaissance et époque moderne : la coupe devient un symbole figéAvec le temps, la coupe cesse d'être utilisée pour boire et devient un objet uniquement honorifique. Elle perd sa fonction de récipient au profit d'un rôle de trophée décoratif, souvent exposé dans les maisons ou châteaux. Aux XVIIIe et XIXe siècles, dans les compétitions sportives, artistiques ou intellectuelles, la coupe est le prix ultime, symbole de prestige social.4. Époque contemporaine : une tradition sportive universelleL'usage se généralise avec les compétitions sportives modernes. Dès 1871, la FA Cup anglaise consacre la coupe comme trophée officiel du football. Aujourd'hui, la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, la Stanley Cup ou encore la Coupe Davis reprennent cette tradition. Même si plus personne ne boit dans ces coupes, leur forme évoque toujours la célébration, la victoire... et le banquet festif d'autrefois.En résuméOn remet des coupes aux vainqueurs car, depuis le Moyen Âge, la coupe incarne à la fois la victoire, la fête et le souvenir. Sa fonction première de récipient à boire s'est peu à peu transformée en symbole universel de triomphe et de reconnaissance publique. Hébergé par Acast.

Ohhh, Villa! Marcus, Luke, Jim and Vish recap one of the craziest European games you'll ever see, as Unai Emery almost Europa League'd his way past PSG and into the Champions League semi-finals.
