BREAKING: Liverpool women's match postponed after tragic death of Matt Beard aged 47

Liverpool Women were due to face Aston Villa at 12pm but the game won't go ahead after former manager Matt Beard's tragic death was confirmed on Saturday

Liverpool Echo

This is pretty big news in women’s sports on a few levels:

“London City Lionesses have won promotion to the Women’s Super League (WSL) for the first time.
London City, owned by Washington Spirit and Lyon Feminin owner Michele Kang, will be the only fully independent club in the 2025-26 WSL, with all 12 teams in this season’s top flight attached to a Premier League club.”

Goes to show what investment in women’s sports clubs can do. Unprecedented success thanks to a woman who knows what she’s doing. She puts more effort into quality than many rich mens’ sports clubs do for their women’s side.
