The 23 players who will compete in the tournament for the USWNT are basically the same set of players we’ve seen over the past few months. With Rose Lavelle out for the first match due to a knock she picked up in training this week, the midfield will have even more questions as they presumably attempt to insert Taylor Kornieck at the 6 to fill...2023-02-1620 min

The USMNT had friendlies last week against Serbia (2-1 loss) and Colombia (0-0 draw), but while the results on the field weren’t great, it was a chance for some players in their first national team camp to have an opportunity to show that they can be a part of the player pool moving forward.

USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter has reportedly begun preliminary talks with U.S. Soccer over a contract extension, and we discuss that history provides us evidence that a coach should not last beyond one World Cup cycle. No matter what you think of his performance in Qatar, the evidence is there that, at least for the USMNT, 2 cycle coaches just don’t pan out.

The USMNT started out with some confidence, but the Oranje had their number all night on the counterattack, with incredible efficiency on the offensive end.

สุดเจ๋ง! ใครว่าไต้หวันไม่ได้เข้าร่วมแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลก 2018? เสื้อผ้ากระทั่งรองเท้านักกีฬาครึ่งผลิตจากไต้หวัน
การแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกปี 2018 ที่ประเทศรัสเซียเป็นเจ้าภาพได้สิ้นสุดในวันที่ 15 กค. ที่ผ่านมา แม้งานแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกจะสิ้นสุดกันแล้ว และไต้หวันเองไม่มีนักกีฬาฟุตบอลเข้าร่วมการแข่งขัน แต่ต้องขอบอกว่าไต้หวันใช่ว่าจะไม่มีส่วนร่วมในงานนี้นะคะ ตั้งแต่เสื้อผ้าของนักกีฬาที่เข้าร่วมการแข่งขัน จนกระทั่งรองเท้าของนักกีฬา คือต้องบอกว่าตั้งแต่ศีรษะจรดเท้าของนักกีฬาที่เข้าร่วมการแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกปีนี้ เป็นผลิตภัณฑ์ MIT หรือ Made in Taiwan ครึ่งเลยทีเดียว
การแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลก 2018 รอบ 32 ทีมที่ผ่านมา เสื้อ รองเท้าของนักกีฬากว่าครึ่งเป็นผลิตภัณฑ์ MIT หรือ Made in Taiwan
บนสนามแข่งขันกีฬาฟุตบอลโลกในครั้งนี้ไม่เพียงแต่เป็นการประชันความดุเดือดสุดมันส์จาก 32 ทีมชาติที่ผ่านเข้ารอบสุดท้ายจากทั่วโลก ก็ยังเป็นการแข่งขันความเจริญทางเทคโนโลยี่และแบรนด์ดังของผลิตภัณฑ์ด้านกีฬาจากประเทศต่างๆทั่วโลกอีกด้วย โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งประเทศที่เจ๋งๆ และมีบทบาทสำคัญในผลิตภัณฑ์ด้านกีฬาก็คือไต้หวันค่ะ เพราะฉะนั้นคำว่า “MIT หรือ Made in Taiwan” จึงเป็นคำที่คุ้นเคยมากสำหรับบรรดานักกีฬาหรือผู้ที่สนใจในผลิตภัณฑ์ด้านกีฬาจากทั่วโลก เพราะว่า การแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกครั้งนี้มีทีมชาติ 16 ประเทศ ที่สวมชุดนักกีฬาฟุตบอลซึ่งผลิตจากเส้นใยรีไซเคิลจากขวดพลาสติก PET ของไต้หวัน เท่ากับครึ่งหนึ่งจากทั้งหมด 32 ทีม เพิ่มขึ้นจากการแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกครั้งก่อนหน้าถึง 6 ทีม โดย 16 ทีมดังกล่าว ได้แก่ ทีมชาติซึ่งสนับสนุนโดยอาดิดาส (Adidas) เช่น เบลเยียม, อาร์เจนตินา, โคลอมเบีย, อียิปต์, เยอรมนี, อิหร่าน, ญี่ปุ่น, เม็กซิโก, โมร็อกโก, สวีเดน, สเปน, รัสเซีย และทีมชาติซึ่งสนับสนุนโดยไนกี้ (Nike) เช่น อังกฤษ, บราซิล, โปรตุเกส และซาอุดิอาระเบีย โดย 4 ทีมที่ไนกี้เป็นผู้สนับสนุนนั้น ชุดบอลยังผลิตในไต้หวันอีกด้วย
เสื้ออัจฉริยะได้รับรางวัลผลิตโดย 遠東新 หรือ Far Eastern New Century Corporation
และเมื่อ 4 ปีก่อน เมื่อครั้งฟุตบอลโลก 2014 ซึ่งบราซิลเป็นเจ้าภาพ ในปีนั้นสื่อมวลชนรายงานว่ามีทีมชาติ 10 ประเทศ ที่สวมชุดบอลซึ่งผลิตจากเส้นใยรีไซเคิลพลาสติกของไต้หวัน จึงถือว่า "ไต้หวันเป็นแชมป์ในฟุตบอลโลก แต่ไม่ใช่ในสนามฟุตบอล แต่เป็นในห้องแต่งตัวนักฟุตบอล" นับเป็นคำชื่นชมที่มีต่อเทคโนโลยีการผลิตชุดบอลที่อนุรักษ์สิ่งแวดล้อมของไต้หวัน
จากการคาดการณ์ของการแข่งขันฟุตบอลโลกปีนี้จะมีการขายเสื้อบอลโลกไปมากกว่า 8 ล้านตัว ขายลูกบอลไปมากกว่า 10 ล้านลูกและมีคนชมงานบอลโลกมากกว่า 32,00 ล้านคนครั้ง ซึ่งปรากฏการณ์นี้ล้วนแต่เป็นโอกาสของไต้หวัน ยกตัวอย่าง เสื้อบอลของนักกีฬาประเทศบราซิล เยอรมัน สวิสเซอร์แลนด์ เบลเยี่ยม อังกฤษ ญี่ปุ่น กรีก ที่ผลิตมาจากไต้หวัน แหล่งที่มาของวัตถุดิบที่ป้อนใช้ผลิตเสื้อบอลล้วนมาจากบริษัทของไต้หวัน อย่างเช่น 遠東新 หรือ Far Eastern New Century Corporation 新光纖維 หรือ SSFC ส่วนเนื้อผ้าตลอดจนการย้อมผ้าจนกระทั่งกลายเป็นเสื้อสำเร็จรูปก็มาจากบริษัทฟู่ซุ่นไฟเบอร์ (富順纖維) 綿春紡織Men-Chuen Fibre Industry Co., Ltd.และ 旭寬企業 หรือซวี่ควานเอนเทอร์ไพร์
