Pandemonium at Jack’s in San Jose as Kai Havertz opens up the scoring for Arsenal.

No. 71 is special. Just watched him score the game-tying goal and then set up the game winner moments later. The Tank deserves this.

Timo Werner comes on for the first time for the San Jose Earthquakes with the team already rolling, up 1-0. Nice buzz in the crowd for the new German DP.

Huge standing ovation for these women despite falling just short. Incredible atmosphere in San Jose befitting of how this team has been embraced by the entire Bay Area.

Listen to this crowd. The Valkyries have done what they’ve been doing all season at home — which is to storm back in the 2nd half behind tough defense and streaky shotmaking.

Valkyries return home to take on the reigning MVP A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces. Coach Natalie Nakase and Kate Martin are also facing their former team.

Chase Center erupts after Valkyries guard Julie Vanloo drains back to back threes. Golden State is still down nine and looks like a team without a focal point, but the atmosphere is incredible.

It’s nice here on Kuminga island, I swear guys.

Buddy Hield back to back steals:

Too Short performing in front of an Oakland crowd will never stop being awesome.
