Hey Sarah. We'd be honoured to have Darcy as a mascot for our next game. Think she'd be up for it? 🙏

7. AS Roma Women

Whatever ‘it’ is, this really ain’t it.

Log out of Twitter, try talking to a woman in real life and you might find that we’re really not that intimidating. 🤦🏻‍♀️ https://t.co/dFphA3m2Pr

8. Kylian Mbappé

Out now: My @TIME international cover interview on @KMbappe. I asked Mbappé how he's handling mega-fame, at 19. He tells me he clings to home truths from mom, says the key is "respect, humility, lucidity." Merci Kylian et la famille Mbappé. pic.twitter.com/lbMSO0u5xH

Always written off by the Dublin media but this is a team on the up if they can adapt to playing in Maginn park. DCFC.

The scoreline flattered Derry. Handed 3 goals on a plate and a better team would have scored several times against them.
