It was one of the toughest matches of the season, but Gracie Dunaway's goal at the death pushed #MNAurora through to the #USLW Semi-Finals.

Correction: We'll see you right back here on the web. Salmon Bay will host MN Aurora on Friday night.

Gracie Dunaway scores off the Flavie Dubé delivery to give @mnaurorafc.bsky.social a playoff win over Pittsburgh in stoppage time 😱

See you all Friday in Eagan!

Sunday's #USLW Central Conference Final is set #MNAurora will face Pittsburgh Riveters in a rematch of the 2025 Central Conference Semi-Final for a shot at the National semis. Riveters defeated #RacingLou USLW side 5-0 to move on to the Conference Final.

My non soccer watching wife just screamed "you divey little cunt!"

Andrés Cantor: “Stand up, ladies and gentlemen, and applaud them both, victors and vanquished…”

for the record, y'all, Cabo Verde's population is barely bigger than Minneapolis.

Aurora moves on

Leach, Aurora lock in on corner kicks to get on the board first. Macomb got a handle on Aurora's defense late but are unable to find an equalizer before the break. #MNAurora | 1 – 0 | #UnionFCMacomb

“Ordinary” was Fletcher Merkel's favorite song. It has become the theme song, an expression of both grief and gratitude, for his friends and the entire Annunciation Catholic School community. bit.ly/4vUwVc3 📹️ Jon Bream/The Minnesota Star Tribune

at least now the whole country knows what it’s like to play the Packers at Lambeau

More people at the ABANDONED TRUMP FAIR than our SOCCER TEAM gets to have on the FIELD right now

Really enjoyed reading this article about one of MN Aurora’s amazing keepers, Isaac Ranson. Take a look!

WORLD CUP at @blackhartstp.com! I am donating all of my tips today to the @siouxfallscityfc.bsky.social Foundation in honor of one of their founders, Eric Thomas, passing away this last week Eric & the SCFC family helped put SD soccer on the map and i enjoyed every second of visiting the 605❤️

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

Trans athletes can still play in Minnesota. Pass it on.

Well, at least there's that.

“That kid is hitting too many homers she must be a boy. Let’s strip her pants in the batter’s box to check.” Do these people realize how much more this endangers young girls than having a trans kid on the team?

No matter what the Supreme Court says, No matter how hard the fascists cling to power, we will fight for all our trans community. Sports are integral to youth community and development and cannot be denied to our trans kids.

THE WORLD CUP IS CANCELLED?!?!?!?!?!????!!!!?? With your attention now on this "last" day of Pride, just wanna say fuck you to anyone who considers themselves an ally and proceeds to do not a single thing to make sure Trans people/queer community continue to feel safe and have rights. Happy Pride 🏳️‍⚧️🌈

Injection day = Sift treat day I don't make the rules.

And they'll have to walk past Seedorf on their way to the tunnel.

That was the longest 3 hours of soccer.

I also appreciate Cody Gakpo and his partner using their platform to talk about miscarriage. It’s hard, it’s heartbreaking, and historically it’s been so stigmatized that you don’t realize how normal it is.

whole lotta dudes rock happening here

The kind of goal you laugh about if circumstances weren't so heavy.

CODY GAKPO 🥹🫂

Holy shit Verbruggen x2

Come on, Cody. We're all with you. #YNWA

Halftime in Racine and Aurora leads at the break thanks to a Thalia Morisi goal!! S/O and huge thanks to @mnrevontulet.bsky.social for keeping us updated!

Oof

angie craig met with chants of “ICE OUT!“ and “PEGGY! PEGGY” at the twin cities pride parade in minneapolis as she runs for the US senate seat as the only minnesota democrat to vote for laken riley act before the ICE occupation really embarrassing for this campaign

We are sorry to hear of the passing of Eric Thomas, a founder of Sioux Falls City. He leaves a lasting legacy in the growth of women's soccer. Our thoughts are with everyone at SFC and the Thomas family at this time. Sincerely, @northlandsoccer.com

"They come from the streets." Really, Sam? More than half of the globe plays football in the streets. A lawn is not a requirement. #PANENG

Happy Caturday.

I need a live shot of Boxy on the bench here.

Checking in...

Proud papa, Poch.

When a kid asks for anything/everything Pokemon but you're still the soccer aunt

Cannot wait to stretch in the morning BEFORE going to PT so I don't have to admit to my "I leaned at a weird angle" spasms.
