Two sides eye their first win of the season when CF Montreal visits Austin FC on Saturday in Frisco, Texas. It will be the second-ever meeting between the two and Montreal's first visit to Austin.

Montreal (0-1-0, 0 points) wil

The Chicago Fire will host New York City FC on Saturday in a meeting of clubs trying to rejuvenate their attacks. The Fire were idle last weekend as the MLS season opened, which provided a chance to make additions to an offense that ranked second-worst in MLS with 39 goals last season. They acquired Kei Kamara, the third-highest goal scorer (139) in MLS regular season history, in a trade from CF Montreal, and announced

Riding a three-game winning streak and on a 7-0-1 roll, the Minnesota Wild head into Saturday's game against the host Calgary Flames having received another boost on trade deadline day.

Second-half tries from Kyle Sinckler and Ollie Lawrence gave England a first win in Cardiff since 2017 in an encounter dominated by kicking 9 mins. Dombrandt takes a good catch after chasing a kick and when the ball is recycled Alun Wyn Jones is penalised for not rolling away. Farrell decides to get some points on the board and duly executes. 7 mins. England are up to nine phases before the Faletau grips the ball for a fa

Prop was traumatised by 2019 Cardiff defeat but says Saturdays success was significant not only in my career but my life Two contrasting post-Cardiff verdicts are still vying with each other. One is that Wales, who have lost 12 of their past 15 internationals, displayed almost no cutting edge and even less tactical acumen. The second is that England defended so capably and did such an effective job of suffocating Welsh mo

France hold off a thrilling Scottish comeback before Gael Fickou scores the bonus point try at the death in Paris. Because this is getting a bit of buzz on the socials, and because I like to stir, what do you make of this? Forward pass or no? This, from Alexandre [no last name attached], is lovely so here it is in full: Continue reading...

France 32-21 Scotland Grant Gilchrist and Mohamed Haouas both sent off early on Another breathless, brilliant encounter to ridicule the idea that rugby union was somehow better in the old days. France won with a bonus point, Gal Fickous last-minute try earning them the garnish and denying Scotland even the consolation of a point of their own. How the visitors would have been worth it, or indeed the full five. Not that the

How can Ireland be thriving on broadly the same levels of union income and exactly the same number of pro teams? To a casual observer and in rugby there are plenty of those the situation is bewildering. Wales have won more grand slams in the Six Nations era than anyone bar France, who drew level with them on four last season. They boast one of the biggest and most charismatic stadiums in the world and more of an intangibl

England fly-half missed four kicks from tee against Wales Head coach sees multiple threats from next opponents France Steve Borthwick insisted that Owen Farrell will come good from the kicking tee after another wayward performance against Wales, as Englands head coach turned his attention towards the next match against France. Ollie Lawrences 74th-minute try sealed Englands 20-10 victory their first in Cardiff since 2017

Venue for France v Ireland opener not yet confirmed Marseille, Toulouse and even Barcelona could host games The 2024 Six Nations championship fixtures have been announced but the precise venue for the blockbuster opening fixture between France and Ireland has still to be confirmed.

Flanker set to play for French club against Racing on Sunday Borthwick left with selection headache for visit of France Jack Willis has again left Englands training camp early and is set to answer a back-row crisis for Toulouse, giving Steve Borthwick a sizeable selection headache before his side host France on Saturday week.

Borthwick makes surprise selection move before France game Ford has not started for England since 2021 Six Nations England have taken the significant decision to omit Marcus Smith from their training squad and recall the fitagain George Ford in the leadup to the Six Nations game against France next week.

The worlds top rugby union teams at the moment are those who can strike the right balance between risk and reward Even when they lose Englands cricketers are making everyone sit up and pay attention. Their one-run second Test defeat in New Zealand after enforcing the follow-on is merely the latest compelling example of their determination, win or lose, to make things happen. How good it is to watch international players e

The wing uses the technique to cope with injury and prepare for games and it led to a picture-perfect try in win over Wales Anthony Watsons try for England against Wales last week came with a sense of deja vu. An obvious feeling of cathartic release, too, after spending so long out with injury, but underlying it all, a familiarity. For Watson had scored the try before, diving into the left-hand corner and dotting the ball

A lack of money and gulf in class between the top teams and the rest could undermine progress in the womens game Whats that coming over the hill?

Brett Quigley fired a 7-under-par 65 to grab the first-round lead at the Cologuard Classic on Friday in Tucson, Ariz. Quigley is one shot ahead of John Huston, Kirk Triplett and Brian Cooper, who opened with rounds of 6-under 66 at Omni Tucson National. Quigley, 53, made five of his eight birdies on the back nine, but in assessing his round he felt he'd played better on the front. "I hit a lot of nice putts, just didn'
