The Women's World Cup field will expand from 16 to 24 teams in 2015. Will the growth help or hurt the women's game? Some believe it is a necessity.

When the 2015 Women's World Cup kicks off two years from this week in Canada, all 52 matches will be played on artificial turf, a development considered heresy by some and an inevitability by others.

U.S. forward Sydney Leroux, whose dual citizenship has made her a lightning rod for Canadian fans' previous abuse, said that she has been the target of racial taunts in the past but not at Sunday's match.

More than 22,000 fans attended, booing U.S. star Abby Wambach and hounding British Columbian-born Sydney Leroux.

Runners will observe 30 seconds of silence before the London Marathon. Many will wear a black ribbon in memory of those who died and in solidarity with the more than 170 wounded in the Boston Marathon bombings.
