U.S. Women's Team Beats Canada For Three Wins In Seven Days
The Americans have won five straight friendlies by a combined score of 18-0 since their 2-1 loss to Brazil in early April. The 19-year-old Hutton was making her sixth appearance for the national team, and her goal in the 36th minute gave the U.S. a 2-0 lead.
Ryan completed the scoring in the 89th minute.
It was the third game in seven days for the U.S., which beat Ireland 4-0 in each of the other two. Coach Emma Hayes' starting lineup against Canada included 10 changes from the second game against Ireland.
Lynn Biyendolo, the lone player to start both of those games, slipped behind the defense for an early chance but missed the net. Moments later, she had a header saved by Canadian goalie Kailen Sheridan.
The U.S. opened the scoring in the 17th minute when Rose Lavelle delivered a free kick into the penalty area from near the left sideline. Canada's Janine Sonis tried to head clear, but the ball fell to Avery Patterson and then bounced to Coffey about 9 yards from the goal.
Both Coffey and Patterson stabbed at the ball, and both appeared to make contact with it. It went straight into the net. Coffey was credited with the goal and Patterson with an assist.
The U.S. scored on another set piece when Canada gave Hutton too much room at the edge of the 6-yard box, and she headed in Lavelle's corner kick. Claudia Dickey, who also shut out Ireland in her international debut last Thursday, stopped a shot from in close by Canada's Jordyn Huitema shortly after Coffey's goal. But the Americans created far more chances.
Lavelle received a standing ovation when she was subbed out around the midway point of the second half. The crowd also gave a big cheer when Tara McKeown — who plays locally for the Washington Spirit — came on as a late sub for the U.S. McKeown assisted on Ryan's goal.
The U.S. plays friendlies against South Korea on Sept. 6 in Harrison, New Jersey, and against Japan on Sept. 9 in Columbus, Ohio.

What Are the 10 Best Sports Moments Representing Team USA?
For as long as there have been sports competitions between countries, the United States has always put together amazing efforts, leading to incredible successes and iconic moments. No matter the sport or competition, Team USA has some memorable leaders who have led the country to seismic wins and monumental upsets. The history of Team USA's play is incredibly rich with talent. If you ask someone what the best performance from the U.S. is on the world stage, you'll likely get a few different answers. That said, FOX Sports Research is here to help sort through the Americans' undeniably rich and successful history. 10 Best Team USA Performances 10. Michael Johnson at the 1996 Olympics Johnson delivered an all-time Olympic performance in 1996, becoming the first male athlete to claim gold in both the 200-meter and 400-meter races. That would even undersell his dominance. Johnson, at the time, would set an Olympic record in the 400-meter race, winning by nearly a full second. 9. Landon Donovan's goal at the 2010 World Cup vs. Algeria Few moments can match the pure adrenaline and excitement of Donovan's 2010 World Cup goal. With the U.S. needing a win to advance, Donovan came through. With just one minute of stoppage time added to the end of the match, Donovan came up with the game-winner, sending Team USA to the next round with one emphatic kick. 8. Carli Lloyd's hat trick in the 2015 World Cup Final vs. Japan One of the most efficient performances in World Cup history belongs to Lloyd. In the biggest match of the year, she delivered, punctuating the final with a hat trick — in just 16 minutes of game action. That 16-minute hat trick is a record for the fastest in a World Cup, and Lloyd is one of only two players to score a hat trick in a World Cup final. 7. Mark Spitz at the 1972 Olympics There's no possible way to do any better than Spitz did in 1972. After feeling like he had a subpar performance in the previous Olympic run, Spitz crushed it in 1972. He competed in seven swimming events in those Olympics and won all seven, doing so by setting a world record in each of the contests. 6. Simone Biles at the 2024 Olympics The hype around Biles returning to the Olympics in 2024 was at an all-time high, and she delivered. In the end, she finished the competition with four medals, three golds and one silver. Moreover, that gave her an eye-popping 11 medals in her illustrious gymnastics career, one that leaves her as the most decorated American gymnast of all time. 5. Michael Phelps at the 2008 Olympics Driven by his determination to better the performance of Spitz in the Olympics, Phelps had his eyes on the prize in 2008. He competed in eight different swimming competitions, collecting gold in all eight of them, while setting world records in seven of them. His eight gold medals are still the record for the most for an athlete in a single Olympics. 4. Brandi Chastain in the 1999 World Cup Final vs. China Perhaps the most indelible image in sports history, Chastain came through clutch in the 1999 World Cup, which was played on the home soil of the United States. With the final game pushing all the way to penalty kicks, Chastain stepped up and drilled the game-winner to seal the home victory for the team and country. 3. "Dream Team" at the 1992 Olympics The 1992 Olympics marked the first time that NBA players were allowed to suit up for their home countries. That year, the U.S. put together one of the greatest rosters of all time. The squad consisted of 12 players, and 11 of them went on to make the Professional Basketball Hall of Fame. The "Dream Team" easily won the gold medal, beating opponents by an average of 43.8 points per game during the tournament. 2. Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympics At a time in history filled with turmoil, Owens was a shining star. He showed up for the U.S. and delivered with four track and field gold medals, setting three Olympic records and one world record over the course of those four events. Owens became the first track and field athlete to collect four or more gold medals in a single Olympics. 1. "Miracle on Ice" at the 1980 Olympics This one needs no introduction. The Soviet Union was considered the international powerhouse for ice hockey and deemed unbeatable, while the U.S. was a scrappy group of junior players — a team no one thought could contend with the full roster of Soviet Union pros. Team USA was down 3-2 entering the final 20 minutes before netting two goals in the final frame to seal the 4-2 victory, birthing the now-famous television call, "Do you believe in miracles? Yes!" Honorable mentions: Keri Strug at the 1996 Olympics "Redeem Team" at the 2008 Olympics Katie Ledecky at the 2024 Olympics Stephen Curry at the 2024 Olympics vs. France Check out all of our Daily Rankers.

A CFL team owns Shedeur Sanders' negotiation rights. Here's what that means
Shedeur Sanders is preparing for his rookie season with the Cleveland Browns after being selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Sanders joined a crowded Browns quarterback room that was already comprised of 40-year-old veteran Joe Flacco, 2022 first-round pick Kenny Pickett and third-round rookie Dillon Gabriel. The four men are expected to battle both to be Cleveland's starting quarterback while also jockeying for position on the depth chart as whole. While much of the focus surrounding Sanders is about his first season in Cleveland, the Browns aren't the only professional football team that owns his rights. The Toronto Argonauts – a long-time member of the CFL – have Sanders on their negotiation list, meaning they are the only team that can sign the former Colorado quarterback should he ever want to play in the league. Here's what to know about the CFL's negotiation list and why Sanders is one of many young, NFL quarterbacks on it. Which CFL team owns rights to Shedeur Sanders? The Toronto Argonauts currently own the exclusive CFL negotiation rights to Sanders. Should the current Browns quarterback ever want to play in Canada, he would have to negotiate a contract with Toronto to make that happen. It isn't clear how long the Argonauts have owned Sanders' rights, as CFL teams are allowed to add college players to their negotiation lists. The league made the full negotiation lists public for the first time on Wednesday, July 2. EXCLUSIVE: Why did Shedeur Sanders slide in draft? NFL team execs give blunt views What is the CFL's negotiation list? Each of the CFL's nine teams maintains a negotiation list of "up to 45 players who are currently either unsigned or are playing in the NFL, in another professional league, or in college," according to the CFL's official website. Teams hold the exclusive CFL negotiating rights to the players included on their lists. Players can be added or removed from the list at any time, and teams are also allowed to trade the rights to players on their negotiation lists to other clubs within the league. Is Shedeur Sanders going to the CFL? Just because Sanders is included on one of the CFL's negotiation lists does not mean he is going to play in the league. It simply means the Argonauts will retain his CFL rights if he ever does decide to play north of the border. But if Sanders accomplishes his goal and carves out a long-term NFL career, he will not join the Canadian league. NFL ROOKIES TO WATCH: Ashton Jeanty headlines most explosive players in 2025 Other QBs on CFL's negotiation list Sanders is far from the only NFL quarterback on a CFL team's negotiation list. Many of the league's clubs stockpile the rights to high-end college quarterbacks and back-end NFL roster candidates in the hopes one will eventually decide to join their teams. Sanders is among the most notable, with Saskatchewan Roughriders stash Trey Lance – the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft – also being among the best-know candidates on the combined lists. Below is a look at the quarterbacks on the CFL's negotiation list for all nine teams, along with their alma maters or the most recent college program for which they played.
