Italians and Cosmos break the season series With their 4-2 win against reigning NPSL Champions Elm City Express, the Cosmos move on to the next round and face off against the Brooklyn Italians in the North Atlantic Conference Championship.
In the previous round, the Cosmos needed extra time to get past the Express. Despite Elm City scoring first, Bledi Bardic matched the reigning champion’s 2 goals in the first half. After a scoreless second half, the two clubs entered ...

Reigning NPSL Champs vs. Number One Contenders Tonight, the Cosmos begin their playoffs with a match against the Elm City Express. From here on out it's win or go home.
In their final match of the regular NPSL season, New York finished unbeaten and untied with a 4-0 victory over Kingston Stockade FC, led by a hattrick from Bledi Bardic. Despite their regular season success, the Cosmos know that none of that matters without a successful playoff run.

One last tune up before the playoffs In their final match of the 2018 NPSL season, New York Cosmos B will face Kingston Stockade FC.
In their last match, the Boys in Green played in one of their closest matches of the season against Hartford City FC. A second half goal from Captain Danny Szetela was all that separated that kept New York undefeated in with a game left to go. Darwin Espinal added another goal to his spectacular season in the match as well. The Cosmos official si...

Not the sexiest of TOTS, but a high chance of pulling a blue. The fourth major EA SPORTS FIFA 17 Team of the Season focuses on France’s top league, Ligue 1. EA’s broken up usual release partner Serie A (aka “Calcio A”) in this year’s FUT cycle, as predicted by many FIFA influencers after Team of the Week was loaded with Serie A players. Serie A TOTS is expected in a couple of weeks.

Eredivisie TOTS | EA Sports FIFA
There are some absolute gems. Last Tuesday, EA released the Eredivisie and Pro League ‘Team of the Season’ (TOTS) squads. To mark the occasion, I decided to put together an Eredivisie squad, and put it though a division run.

My approach was simple. I kept sniping Eredivisie TOTS players, and either putting them into my squad for a couple of games, or listing them up for some instant profit. I started with the chea...

The one we've all been waiting for. In our fourth TOTS Prediction, we look to Spain and La Liga, a league that has no lack of quality or big names. With Real Madrid winning their first league title in five years, they make up a fair amount of the TOTS, with some of the regulars from Barcelona, Atlético Madrid, and others joining in as well.
Note: All stats are taken from Transfermarkt and WhoScored and are accurate as of May 30th.

Grazie Totti. We’re getting a little bit sentimental in this week’s Team of the Week. EA Sports have released their 37th TOTW and the most notable card in the bunch is an 83-rated Hero Francesco Totti card. If they could, they would probably make it a legend card. There’s no doubt that once he officially hangs up the boots (assuming they have his rights) he’ll be turned into one of those beautiful white cards. The Italian legend played his final match for...

The boosts (and price) leave some to be desired, but he’s still a beast. N’Golo Kante’s class on the pitch in real life is undisputed. Anyone who watched the Premier League each of the past two seasons (this past FA Cup aside) understands why Kante’s reigned supreme as football’s most influential talisman.
Console FIFA players too know the magic of Player of the Season (and now TOTS) Kante. The former SBC and then packable purple then blue respectiv...

Brown used the downhill to put himself in contention and the final straight to showcase his mile speed. Coming into the 2016 Footlocker Boys’ race, the only thing we really felt comfortable saying we knew is that we didn’t know how this race would play out at all. With as many as 10 boys in possible contention for the win, we expected that the race would be close throughout, but had no confidence to claim to know who would emerge from that group.

She led wire-to-wire and held off last year’s third place finisher Nevada Mareno to claim the win. California sophomore Claudia Lane has been known this season for her front-running strategy. The question for her coming into today’s Foot Locker championship was not whether she would attempt to run from the front, but how it would play out for her against this group of talent.
Lane took the lead from the gun, which, historically, has not been a great strategy o...

The winner of the boys’ race could challenge Casey Clinger for the national No. 1 ranking. Welcome to Footlocker in the age of NXN. Earlier, we looked at how the girls’ race might play out Saturday and concluded that, regardless of who wins, it will not be the best girl in the country. To a lesser extent, the same analysis holds for the boys. With Casey Clinger winning NXN last weekend, Saturday’s Footlocker winner will, at best, have to share the number one cro...

With the top girl in the country racing NXN, Saturday’s competition will be open. With Brie Oakley having won last weekend’s Nike Cross Country Nationals by a stunning 28 seconds, Saturday’s Footlocker race will not truly crown the top high school girl in the country. According to tullyrunners.com , Oakley had the best speed rating in the country by seven points—the equivalent of 21 seconds on a typical 5k cross country course.
