Kouassi scores last-second equalizer for Spirit in 2-2 tie with Racing
Rosemonde Kouassi scored a last-second equalizer and the Washington Spirit tied Racing Louisville 2-2 on Friday night in the National Women's Soccer League. In the only other NWSL game Friday, the Utah Royals were held to a scoreless tie at home to Angel City. With practically the final kick of the game, the Spirit forward hit a curling shot from the edge of the box that Racing goalkeeper Jordyn Bloomer couldn't keep out in the 10th minute of second-half stoppage time. Spirit forward Sofia Cantore scored her first goal in the NWSL to open the scoring in the 40th minute. The Italian international struck the ball with the outside of her foot from 35 yards out, sending it into the crossbar before it bounced into the net. An own goal from Spirit defender Rebeca Bernal tied things up at 1-1 in the 53rd minute. There was little Bernal could have done to avoid deflecting a wayward shot from Racing midfielder Taylor Flint beyond the reach of goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury. Savannah DeMelo converted a penalty to put Louisville up 2-1 in the 80th minute. The spot kick was awarded after a VAR review deemed Leicy Santos to have fouled Ary Borges. With the tie, the Spirit (8-4-4) climb to second in the standings and remain undefeated since former assistant Adrian Gonzalez took over as head coach in July. Racing (6-6-4), who have never qualified for the playoffs in their history, remain above the playoff line in seventh place. Scoreless battle between Royals and Angel City The last place Utah Royals were held scoreless at home by 11th-place Angel City. The game was a meeting between the NWSL's two least in-form teams. The Royals were winless in their last 10 while Angel City hadn't won in their last seven. The closest the visitors came to scoring was when Los Angeles midfielder Kennedy Fuller clipped the top of the crossbar from a long-range shot in the 54th minute. The Royals outshot Angel City 14-10 and had more shots on target, 5-2. Utah's two best chances came from set pieces in the first half. Royals forward Mina Tanaka failed to score with a header from 6 yards out on both occasions. Angel City was without its starting goalkeeper Angelina Anderson due to a lower leg injury. Danish goalkeeper Hannah Seabert made her NWSL debut in her place. She recorded five saves and a clean sheet. The tie keeps the Royals (1-11-4) in last place in the NWSL, now one point behind the Chicago Stars in 13th. Angel City (4-7-5) is still winless under Alex Straus, tying three and losing three since he took over as head coach in June. ___ AP soccer:

Emma Stone Makes Rare Comment About Working with Ex Andrew Garfield: ‘Special Time in My Life'
The former couple met on the set of 2012's 'The Amazing Spider-Man' and dated for four years NEED TO KNOW Emma Stone starred as Gwen Stacy in The Amazing Spider-Man films Stone starred opposite Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker) whom she dated for four years The actress made a rare comment about Garfield in a sit-down for Vogue's Life in Looks Emma Stone will always look back at her time with Andrew Garfield with a smile. In a sit-down for Vogue's Life in Looks published on Thursday, Aug. 14, the actress made a rare comment about working with the actor, whom she met on the set of 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man and dated for four years. As fans recall, Garfield starred as the titular character of Spider-Man/Peter Parker, while Stone played Gwen Stacy. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! The topic of Garfield came up as Stone began discussing the yellow Versace dress she wore to the premiere of 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in London. "I mean, I really loved doing Spider-Man. I loved everyone I worked with. I met Andrew there. I met Sally Field and Marc Webb was wonderful. It was really a special time in my life," the two-time Oscar winner said. Stone said that the people she was surrounded by while filming made her experience better. "The recurring theme is the people, more than kind of like the film itself, is what sticks with me for so long," she said. "And so I have only like the fondest memories of this whole experience." The only complaint Stone had regarding her time filming The Amazing Spider-Man movies was the press tours. "I don't really know how people do it. I remember it being like nine countries in maybe two weeks, and you're functioning in a state of jet lag never previously known to you," she said. "I felt truly psychotic the entire time." In past interviews, Garfield has also spoken highly about Stone and working on The Amazing Spider-Man films. While speaking with Variety in 2021, he said that working on the films was 'beautiful' because he 'got to meet Emma [Stone] and work with her,' as well as Field. As for whether he'll ever step into the world of Spider-Man again, after most recently appearing as the character in the 2021 hit Spider-Man: No Way Home, along with Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland, never say never.
