Potter gets first England call-up, Kelly and Toone miss out
Chelsea midfielder Lexi Potter has earned her first senior England squad call-up for the Women's World Cup qualifying playoff against Greece. The 20-year-old's inclusion comes after her impressive form for Chelsea, including starring in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Arsenal.
Sarina Wiegman's squad also sees Leah Williamson return after injury, while uncapped 18-year-old midfielder Erica Meg Parkinson and London City Lionesses winger Freya Godfrey have been called up. Notably, regular internationals Ella Toone and Chloe Kelly have been left out of the squad.
Spain Call-Up: Roberto Fernández Waits for Debut
The Andalusian forward, who has scored six goals in seven LaLiga appearances this season, was included in the squad but did not even make the bench for the games at Wembley or La Cartuja. newssport.cv
Debut remains on hold despite his strong form for Espanyol.
Eagles Defense Needs to Get on Same Page
The Eagles defense continues to struggle with missed tackles and communication breakdowns, issues that were somewhat masked during their first two wins of the season. Against the Bears, Case Keenum went 24-of-34 for 247 yards and two touchdowns without being sacked, while Kalif Raymond's touchdown catch was attributed to 'miscommunication' by DeJean.
With Week 4 bringing a matchup against the Rams on a short week, the Eagles have little time to address these defensive issues before their next game.
Ben Johnson praises Case Keenum, doesn't say who Bears' starting QB will be next week
Bears head coach Ben Johnson praised third-string quarterback Case Keenum after Monday night's win over the Eagles, but Johnson wasn't ready to say whether Keenum will start again on Sunday against the Jets.
"It's all about Case Keenum," Johnson said. "What he was able to do here tonight, I thought he did an extraordinary job. When the running game's not going, being able to lean into the passing game as a play caller . . . He played really efficient football and I couldn't be more proud of him for that."
Keenum started against the Eagles because Caleb Williams is out with a hamstring injury and second-string quarterback Tyson Bagent spent most of the week in the league's concussion protocol. Bagent was active as the Bears' No. 2 quarterback, and Johnson said it's too soon to say whether Bagent will be No. 1 against the Jets.
"We'll have a discussion as a coaching staff and we'll see where we need to go from here," Johnson said. "But I said it last week and I'll say it again: There was a reason Tyson ended training camp as our No. 2 quarterback."
Johnson said the Bears have three quarterbacks they can win with.
"Whether it's Caleb, whether it's Tyson, whether it's Case," Johnson said, "we've got one of the best quarterback rooms in the NFL."
Ferrari Backs Vasseur Amid Rumors
Ferrari held an unexpected press conference on Tuesday to address swirling rumors about team boss Frédéric Vasseur. The team, represented by communications director Maria Conti speaking on behalf of chairman John Elkann, firmly stated their position: 'Ferrari's stand is clear. It's not going to change. We have trust in Fred and his team. Nothing has changed,' Conti said.
The move comes amid increasing pressure on Vasseur after Ferrari has gone five World Championship rounds without a single podium finish – an extremely rare occurrence for the team. Recent comments from former Red Bull boss Christian Horner, who mentioned Ferrari as the only team he could work for without demanding an ownership stake, have further fueled speculation about Vasseur's future.
