MLS Wins and Losses: Week 17
With some new big signings hogging the limelight, it was some of the already existing stars of MLS who made the difference this week, for better or worse, big goals, nasty tackles, they brought it all this week.

WWC 2015: Poor, poor ecuador. Group E and F preview
Friday started off with Australia vs Nigeria. The Aussies opened the scoring with a very well taken goal from Simon after de Vanna had a long run before passing it off.
