Expectations were high for the United States Women’s National Team before the World Cup this year, but things hardly went as planned for them. The side, which is the most successful in Women’s international history, struggled to make it out of the group stages before crashing out to Sweden in the Round of 16. It’s a surprise result considering the talent in the side and their legacy in the competition – and it’s certainly not the outcome that Netflix were hoping for. The streaming platform has been following the side behind the scenes as they attempted to retain the trophy they won back in 2019 and 2015. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Despite the USA being knocked out before the semi-finals for the first time ever, the series is still expected to be aired. The show is said to feature the likes of USA players Alyssa Thompson, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe. Rapinoe has been an icon of the Women’s game for years now, but she was one of the players to miss crucial penalties in the shootout against Sweden alongside Sophia Smith and Kelly O'Hara. Football fans will still be expected to watch the series, which is set to follow a similar format to the sports documentary series Break Point, Full Swing and Formula 1: Drive to Survive. The series will still air, but football fans are jokingly asking just how long the series will be after the US team were dumped out far earlier than expected. One social media user cheekily referred to the doc as a “mini-series”. “They’re out in the last 16 so this can be an Instagram reel now,” another wrote. One more said: “Netflix will go to any length to cancel a show early.” Have your say in our news democracy.

The Women’s Super League (WSL) and Championship are preparing to break free from the Football Association after the top two tiers unanimously agreed to be governed by a new, independent body from next season. Former Nike and Citigroup executive Nikki Doucet has been appointed to lead the organisation, NewCo, effective immediately, and will oversee plans for all 24 clubs to move into the new governance structure ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. Each club who participates in the WSL and Championship will act as shareholders under the NewCo model, which has long been in the works and is seen as an important step in growing what an independent review concluded this summer has potential to become a billion-pound domestic women’s football industry within 10 years. Baroness Sue Campbell, the FA’s director of women’s football, said: “The women’s professional game is in the strongest place that it has ever been thanks to the hard work of everybody involved in its development so far, but we firmly believe that the NewCo will take it to another level entirely. “Each of our 24 clubs and the league itself wants the Barclays Women’s Super League and Barclays Women’s Championship to be setting the standards for women’s football around the world, and this venture into a new governing body is the next step in us achieving that ambition. “This is a historical moment for the women’s professional game in this country, and it is a move that will see our clubs and players make even bigger strides both on and off the pitch.” Former England international Karen Carney led the independent review into the women’s game, commissioned by the government in 2022, concluding in July that “women’s football is a start-up business.” This is a historical moment for the women’s professional game in this country, and it is a move that will see our clubs and players make even bigger strides both on and off the pitch Baroness Sue Campbell “If you’re starting something you have to have an influx of money. In 10 years’ time I really do believe this sport could be a billion-pound industry,” she said. NewCo, a restructure of power similar to the Premier League’s 20-club governance model, is viewed by many as a critical next phase in the commercial growth of the English women’s game. A working group chaired by Arsenal CEO Vinai Venkatesham, with Doucet serving as an independent consultant, led on developing the proposal for NewCo and involved 10 representatives from WSL and Championship clubs including Crystal Palace chair Steve Parish and Patrick Stewart, who earlier this month was appointed interim chief at Manchester United. Venkatesham added: “This is a pivotal moment in the history of the women’s professional game, as we look to work together to build the most distinctive, competitive and entertaining women’s football club competition in the world. “Setting up NewCo provides the opportunity to accelerate the sustainable growth of the women’s game and will not only support the development of the Barclays Women’s Super League and Barclays Women’s Championship, but the entirety of the women’s football pyramid. “It has been a constructive and collective effort to get to this stage, and Nikki’s appointment encapsulates the ambition we have for NewCo. With her vision for women’s football, the future is incredibly bright.” Read More Tom Daley back on British Swimming’s World Class Programme in Olympic boost ECB boss admits challenges remain for cricket after positive impact report Former Sheffield United and Everton defender Phil Jagielka announces retirement Bruno Fernandes excited for ‘amazing’ atmosphere at Galatasaray Man City unveil statue of club greats Mike Summerbee, Colin Bell and Francis Lee Football rumours: Juventus eyeing swoop for Thomas Partey
