The opening ceremony for the Games of the 32nd Olympiad (colloquially known as the 2021 Summer Olympics, duh) kicks things off on Friday, and Ralph Lauren is once again outfitting Team USA athletes for their match through the Olympic Stadium. This year, there’s a slightly new look for the outfits and some cool (literally) technology implemented in the jackets of the flagbearers for the country. Ralph Lauren introduced eco-friendly uniforms for Team USA’s opening ceremony outfits, with the look blending Americana with classic style heading into Tokyo’s Olympic games....

A 1-1 home draw with Turkey in their latest Euro 2016 qualification fixture means that the World Cup 2014 semifinalists have garnered just seven points from their opening five fixtures in Group A. Guus Hiddink’s side is five points adrift of Iceland in the race to reach next summer’s tournament in France, but the Dutch defeated Spain in an international friendly back in March. They’ll be determined to build on that result when they take on Jurgen Klinsmann’s side....

Tyler Boucher led the USA offense with two goals, while Kaidan Mbereko struggled in his 2023 debut, making 20 saves on 25 shots....
Ok, so Apple wasn’t the first tech brand to remove the physical headphone port from a phone, but those that went before – the likes of Oppo and Motorola with the Moto Z – didn’t make the same impact. The basics Let’s tackle the fairly obvious first. If your phone (or other device) doesn’t have a headphone jack then you’ll need to plug in via USB-C (assuming that’s the port of choice)....
Here’s what else you need to know. Overall Findings (Main Differences) The easiest way to understand the differences between USB-C vs USB 3 is that one describes the connector (USB-C), and the other is the data transfer technology (USB 3).

The Netherlands-born 18-year-old was part of the U.S. team that reached the quarterfinals of the Under-20 World Cup in June and has made his first-team breakthrough at Dutch club Ajax this season. Dest is comfortable playing on either side of defense and is the third player born this millennium to be called up by his national side, following Josh Sargent and Tim Weah. “I’ve been really intrigued with how he’s been playing in Ajax,” head coach Gregg Berhalter said at a news conference Wednesday....
They had to deal with reading the report on player abuse within the NWSL, processing it, and talking about it privately and publicly. And maybe that’s what led to their meager performance Tuesday in a 2-0 loss to Spain, which came four days after a defeat to England, which made this the first two-game losing streak for the USWNT since 2017. Thing is, that may not be all of the problem....
It was a battle between the first and second ranked teams in the world as the USWNT faced Germany in Offenbach in an international friendly. The game ended in a 3-3 draw, seeing Abby Wambach scoring her 155th career goal. A rocketing volley from Megan Rapinoe and an excellent chip from Alex Morgan saw them both joining Abby upon the scoreboard. Kim Kulig scored first for the Germans after a mix up within the American defence....

FIFA is using Video Assistant Referees for the men’s World Cup for the first time this year, and it has led to several key call reversals and an increase in penalty kicks. “I can’t see them not having it. I think it would be a little bit insulting if we weren’t afforded the same opportunity,” Ellis said during a round-table discussion with American reporters. “There’s too much at stake to not have it, and I think our game, our passion, our drive, our motivation is at the same level as the men....
Team USA baseball is, interestingly enough, a bit of a stranger to gold medals at the Olympics. The team captured its first — and only — gold-medal victory at the 2000 Olympics, but it could be in position to land a second after their 7-2 win over Korea on Thursday. The U.S. downed South Korea in a rematch from group play, a game the United States won 4-2. Now, after a loss to Japan earlier in the week, Team USA is one win away from the gold medal as they face Japan on Saturday — on the flip side, it’s one loss away from a silver medal....
