MORE: Women’s World Cup Schedule, scores, and odds The Netherlands made quick work of Italy. Vivianne Miedema and Stefanie van der Gragt led the Oranje into the next round, scoring within 10 minutes of each other on two headers to end Italy’s historic run. It was Sweden, however, who stunned the field with a 2-1, come-from-behind victory over two-time World Cup winner, Germany....

The Sooners have dropped three of their last four games in Venables’ inaugural year as head coach. While not all of that can be blamed on him — he inherited a team whose top quarterbacks scattered to the winds in the offseason — the reality among power schools is that expectations won’t always align with reality. Oklahoma has its work cut out for it as it takes on No. 13 Florida State, a team that is hoping it is coming out of a twilight era caused by the abrupt departure of Jimbo Fisher....

New England (12-3) already clinched the AFC East and will now try and fend off Kansas City for the 2-seed in the AFC. If the Patriots and Chiefs are tied after Sunday’s games, Kansas City gets the first-round bye by virtue of the head-to-head tiebreaker. While the lowly Dolphins might not face much of a challenge, the Patriots are just 4-3 in their last seven games and have looked vulnerable at times....

Los Angeles is 2-0 and will be expected to remain undefeated on the road Sunday night against the Browns, who evened their record with a 23-3 win over the hapless Jets on Monday night. MORE: Watch Browns vs. Rams live with fuboTV (7-day free trial) The Rams snuck past the Panthers, 30-27, in their season-opener before rolling to a 27-9 win over the Saints last week.

Linebacker Ryan Shazier suffered a serious back injury that he’s yet to fully recover from, and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster laid a devastating block on Vontaze Burfict that earned a one-game suspension. The game has carried on without Shazier, and the Bengals have moved on from Burfict, who’s done little to lessen his reputation as a headhunter. Smith-Schuster has taken over the No. 1 receiver role from Antonio Brown, who received a brutal hit from Burfict the year after the infamous Monday night game....

On the other side, the 6-4 Bengals had a get-right game against the Raiders last week in a 32-13 win. Ja’Marr Chase appears to be getting attention that he didn’t receive before from defenses, and it’s showing, but Joe Burrow is still distributing the ball well. He’ll have to continue to do so against a Steelers defense that is more than capable of getting to the quarterback. The Bengals won in somewhat dominant fashion when these two teams faced each other back in September, a 24-10 victory that featured a pair of Chase touchdowns....

The Atlanta Hawks’ Trae Young struggled mightily on the night as he was restricted to 4 points, one of his lowest scores since entering the league in 2018. The soaring Utah Jazz will enter this contest having won 12 of their last 13 games....

The Nets are coming in with back to back losses, their lastest of which came against the Washington Wizards 123-122. As a result, they have dropped to the 10th position in the East. There’s more bad news for Nets fans as their leading scorer, Kevin Durant, will be sitting this one out due to the league’s Covid-19 health and safety protocols. On the bright side, the Nets are one of the highest-scoring teams in the league right now....

Some of Splatoon 3’s most creative designs go into the shopkeepers of Splatsville. Unlike the superstars such as Deep Cut that fit into the octoling and squidling category, the shopkeepers tend to be more unique. They are based on real sea creatures, though their anthropomorphized designs may make some fans not recognize this.

What Are DMs? DMs means direct messages. On some social media platforms, like Twitter, you have a tab that allows you to privately message any other user who follows you (or those you don’t follow you who have their DM settings open to everyone).

What It Means When Someone Says ‘Slide Into Your DMs Like…’ Since you can have an open conversation with anyone on social media by replying to a message or putting @username in front of your the message, DMs are often used for conversations that you and the other user would rather keep just between the two of you....

Yes, white-led climate and environmental groups are touting the reconciliation bill and its climate provisions recycled from Build Back Better as a great success. It’s true that it’s the first big climate package that Congress might actually pass, though we’re not there yet. But it’s funded at a small fraction of BBB, it soft-pedals climate change in favor of “inflation reduction” and “energy security,” and its “all of the above” energy approach is full of concessions to the fossil fuel industry, including selling offshore oil drilling leases in the Gulf of Mexico and off Alaska....

MORE: Get Game 5 updates with TSN’s live blog Wednesday’s game could not have gone more differently. The Phillies were humbled in a combined no-hitter by the Houston pitching staff, headed by six innings from starter Cristian Javier. It was just the third no-hitter in postseason history and the second in World Series play, with the other being Don Larsen’s perfect game in 1956. The 5-0 result sets up an inflection-point Game 5 at Citizens Bank Park with the series now tied 2-2....

Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Avalanche and Lightning is Friday night. Colorado is coming off a controversial win in Game 4: Nazem Kadri’s overtime goal appeared to be preceded by a missed call with Colorado having too many men on the ice. The goal stood, however, and now the Avalanche lead the finals 3-1.

Giannis Antetokounmpo made history in Game 6 by posting 44 points, 20 rebounds and six assists, but it wasn’t enough for the Bucks to overcome a big-time performance from Celtics star Jayson Tatum. Tatum led the Celtics to victory with 46 points, nine rebounds and four assists.

After pulling off the first road win of the series on Saturday, defeating the Nets 109-103 in Brooklyn, the Celtics are one victory away from ending the Nets’ season. Jayson Tatum has been undeniable in this series, going for 39 points, six assists, six steals and five rebounds to lead Boston in Game 4.
