Van Domselaar's own goal gives Liverpool an FA Cup surprise victory over Arsenal.

Liverpool defeated Arsenal 1-0 in a fierce match to complete the upset of the Women's FA Cup quarterfinals. The Reds advanced to the semi-finals for the first time since the 2016–17 campaign thanks to a winner in the 78th minute that was a rebounding own goal off the unfortunate Daphne van Domselaar. After a turbulent ten days following Matt Beard's departure, interim manager Amber Whiteley praised her team's performance. Whiteley remarked, "I am so happy for everyone today." "Over the past few weeks, they have worked really hard. A significant shift occurred. The system has been modified. They've had to absorb a lot of knowledge in a short period of time, and they've just been excellent in how they've used it both today and last week. "I believed we were excellent from beginning to end. We were really well-prepared. We significantly reduced their opportunities in front of goal when we had the ball. Rachael Laws, I believe, only m...

With Juventus hammering Atalanta, the Serie A title race is blown wide.

Atalanta's 4-0 thumping of Juventus established a marker for the Serie A title battle.

Mateo Retegui scored the first goal after the ball struck Weston McKennie's outstretched arm, giving the visitors an unexpected lead in the first half.

Less than a minute into the second half, La Dea increased their lead when Retegui's attempt on goal was blocked by Lloyd Kelly and Marten de Roon scored the rebound.

After Sead Kolašinac set him up with a deft backheel from the byline, Davide Zappacosta made matters worse by sweeping the ball through Kelly's legs.

Before the game ended, Ademola Lookman scored a fifth goal after Dušan Vlahović's slip sent him on a driving run, making things worse for the Bianconeri.

After losing a five-game winning streak, Juventus is six points behind Gian Piero Gasperini's team, who could catch up to leaders Inter when they play next week.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly ...
