BBC News has finally launched a live 24/7 channel on YouTube. Looks like the same one as on the FAST channels in the US that have had it for a while. www.youtube.com/live/-NabWfv...
This is the first I'm hearing of the MLS season starting back up again
It's 15 minutes to kick-off of the first MLS game in 2 months, the first since the start of this hugely successful World Cup. There is no pregame show. There is no scene-set that explains the first half of the season. There is nothing to welcome new viewers and connect the league to the past month.
If only The Guardian US had nearly as much perspective as this excellent review. I'm really disappointed by how out of touch the @us.theguardian.com analysis has been about the USMNT during this World Cup. A big dropoff from what they had previously.

The Guardian has been eating The Athletic's lunch for several months. Here's another example:
BREAKING: The Guardian has acquired the full 26-man US men's national team World Cup roster. A couple of big surprises on there in addition to what's already been reported. Reporting with @mlsist.bsky.social: www.theguardian.com/football/202...
A reminder that DR Congo will be playing in the United States this June in the FIFA World Cup with matches in Atlanta and Houston. The CDC has issued a travel ban to prevent people from DRC from entering the USA. #WorldCup
BREAKING The World Health Organization has declared an international health emergency over a rare strain of Ebola that has killed dozens in the Democratic Republic of Congo, but has stopped short of calling the outbreak a pandemic
While the US soccer journalists are composing their softball questions for FIFA, the hard hitting foreign journalists are literally being blocked by Infantino's goons.
FIFA Congress in Vancouver. Gives you an idea of the environment the press has to navigate. Questions to Infantino were about Peace Prize and ticketing. Infantino: "I will comment whenever I decide to comment on everything." Kunti in the brown pull.

I reckon yesterday was a genuine million-to-one shot: final day shootout, late goal, pitch invasion, later goal, pitch invasion, full-time, pitch invasion. You'll never see the like of this again. Piece here: inews.co.uk/sport/footba...
