Saturday Soccer Gameday: Sol & SuperLiga
Worst meets first in the WPS Bagel Bowl at the HDC at 10 a.m. (!) today as the visiting Chicago Red Stars (2-5-5), without a win in eight, meet the league-leading Sol (9-1-4), who are without a loss in nine games.
Motivation for going: every fan gets a free Sol T-shirt.
Motivation for heading to the free Wi-Fi at your local coffee shop: a live Webcast here. Los Angeles Sol Director of Media Relations Nick Ammazzalorso has the call with color commentary provided by Aaron Heifetz, press officer for the United States Women's National Team.
Meanwhile, if Chicago don't beat Tigres in a game that kicks off at 5 p.m. it may not be worth going to the Chivas USA-San Luis SuperLiga game that kicks off at 7 p.m. at the HDC (assuming you're a Chivas fan).
Lastly, it appears many of you believe the U.S. has already made a point to the world regardless of the Confederations Cup finale's outcome Sunday against Brazil. Agree? Disagree? Vote here.
