Jun 25, 2024, 02:21 PM ETSan Diego Wave president Jill Ellis said the shocking decision to fire head coach Casey Stoney was hers alone, and that it was based on data and the poor form of the team amid a seven-game winless streak."We're an ambitious club," Ellis told reporters on Tuesday, one day after making the decision. "We want to compete domestically and internationally. Right now, to qualify for the [Concacaf] Champions League, there's three criteria: win the league, finish second in the league, or win the championship. Where we sit at the moment, we are limiting opportunities."It's never all about numbers. It's also about how it looks, how it feels, and for sure how it performs. And in sport we don't live in the past; it's how we perform in the moment. And in this moment, we felt -- again, it's very hard. We needed an inflection point, so we made a very hard decision to change our head coach and begin a search for a new one."Ellis said that the decision to fire Stoney was "made independent of our new general manager" Camille Ashton, who has not yet fully relocated to San Diego. Ashton left her post as general manager of the Kansas City Current in May to take the new job in San Diego, where she will also hold the role of sporting director.Paul Buckle, who served as an interim assistant coach for the Wave in 2022 and took his U.S. Soccer Pro License course with Ellis, will serve as the Wave's interim head coach while the team conducts a search for a new coach.San Diego Wave president Jill Ellis said it was solely her decision to fire coach Casey Stoney. Ira L. Black - Corbis/Getty Images"My inbox is already full," Ellis said, adding that the league is very international now, and that fans expect "a team that is working their ass off and getting after it and playing in a way that is exciting and entertaining and built on attacking."The Wave's decision to fire Stoney came as a significant surprise despite the team's relative struggles. San Diego sits in ninth place, one point outside the playoff line and 17 points off the NWSL Shield, which looks unattainable at the halfway point of the season.The Wave, however, enjoyed significant success under Stoney, including winning the Challenge Cup -- which is newly reformatted like a Community Shield -- in March.Stoney led San Diego to the Shield last year, in the team's second season as a franchise, before the Wave lost in a playoff semifinal at home. The Wave led the NWSL table for half the season in 2022 and became the first NWSL expansion team to make the playoffs in its first season.Stoney was named coach of the year in 2022, after being hired ahead of the Wave's inaugural season.This year, Stoney attempted to overhaul the team's style of play from a direct, counterattacking side to one that kept more possession. The adjustment has been difficult.San Diego is 3-5-6 (15 pts.) this season with only 12 goals scored in 14 games, the third-worst mark in the league.Stoney and the Wave had just agreed to a contract extension in January through 2027, with a mutual option for 2028, putting to rest rumors that she would return to her native England to take the Chelsea job that would be open upon Emma Hayes' departure for the United States women's national team.Ellis said she told Wave players in a hybrid in-person and virtual meeting that, "There's talent in this room and I think we can be better than where we are currently."ESPN reached out to a representative of Stoney's on Monday but is yet to receive a response.Ellis is a former coach and the only woman to win two World Cups. She led the USWNT to back-to-back triumphs in 2015 and 2019. On Tuesday, she heaped praise on Stoney for the work she had done and said they would stay in touch."Casey knew results mattered," Ellis said. "Casey's ambitious as hell. Was she happy where we were? Of course not. But I think a coach also understands that sometimes this is the nature of the beast of coaching. It's tough at times."You don't go into coaching knowing that it's a lifelong commitment. You go into it, give everything you have, try as hard as you can. And Casey's going to get gobbled up by another team. I think she sort of took it in stride. This is part of the landscape of coaching."Ninety percent, 95% of the best coaches in the world have been fired or let go. It's sometimes hard for people in another ecosystem to know the space we live in, or I lived in, as coaches, but I think it's part of what you do. I think we'll have a lot of interest and people will want to come be a part of this." ,La presidenta del San Diego Wave, Jill Ellis, explicó que la sorprendente decisión de despedir al entrenador jefe Casey Stoney fue suya, basada en datos y el bajo rendimiento del equipo.](https://losdeportes.mx/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tue-25-Jun-2024-142837-EST.jpg)

(0:37)Portugal coach Roberto Martínez urged supporters not to invade the pitch to get to Cristiano Ronaldo against Georgia on Wednesday after confirming the forward will start the Group F fixture at Euro 2024.Six different spectators breached security during and after Portugal's win over Turkey last weekend in search of a selfie with Al Nassr's Ronaldo.It has promoted UEFA to introduce additional security measures at fixtures in Germany and file criminal complaints against any supporter who invades the pitch."[Ronaldo] is a very experienced player who has been with the national team for over 20 years," Martínez said in a news conference on Tuesday."He knows the kind of support fans provide -- not just Portugal fans, but football fans in general -- but I hope there won't be any more pitch invasions."It is dangerous and it is not good for football. It's not the part of the game that we want to see."Ronaldo, 39, smiled and posed for a picture with a young boy who evaded security to run onto the playing surface in the 70th minute.A teenage boy then attempted to repeat the stunt 15 minutes later, but Ronaldo threw his arms in the air and waved him away before security stopped the youngster.On both occasions, German referee Felix Zwayer was forced to delay the game until the youngsters were removed from the pitch.Two more supporters, this time adult males, ran onto the pitch in stoppage before being stopped by security, with two more spectators repeating the trick once the final whistle had been blown.Portugal have won both their games at Euro 2024 and are already into the round of 16, but Martínez will resist the urge to rest Ronaldo against Georgia as he seeks the goal that will make him the oldest scorer in the history of the finals.The current record is held by Luka Modric, who was 38 years and 289 days old when he netted the first goal in Croatia's 1-1 draw with Italy on Monday."I can tell you that Ronaldo will be in the starting lineup," Martínez confirmed. "It's important to keep his competitive level high. It's not good to start and stop."Georgia and Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is looking forward to facing a player he idolised growing up."Ronaldo was my boyhood idol," Kvaratskhelia said in a news conference. "I always dreamt of playing with him. He does not play in Europe anymore, so I'm so glad to have this chance to play against him."Maybe it really is a time for dreams to come true, so hopefully I can get a win [against Portugal] and his shirt after the game."Georgia are the lowest-ranked team in the competition at 74 in the world, but a draw against Czechia in their last game means they can still reach the round of 16 if they beat Portugal.It would represent a remarkable achievement for a nation competing at their first-ever European Championships."We're confident that we can win because we went close against Turkey and the Czechia," Kvaratskhelia said. "Anything can happen at any moment, you can create something that can be a turning point in any match."Not everybody was sure that we could do something here, but we are. And as long as we have even a 1% chance, we will put all our strength into playing here, to add new chapters to our history." ,El entrenador de Georgia promete hacer todo para vencer a Portugal en la Euro 2024. Ronaldo confirmado para el partido. Medidas de seguridad adicionales implementadas.](https://losdeportes.mx/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tue-25-Jun-2024-134148-EST.jpg)
