Goalkeeper Mary Earps leads England’s path to success vs. Denmark

The World Cup crew broke down England’s path to success that heavily relies on goalkeeper Mary Earps.

Earps is at +250 to win the award (bet $10 to win $35 total) after being at +400 heading into last weekend.

Earps plays for Manchester United in the Women’s Super League. She set a WSL record with 14 clean sheets this past season, leading Man U to a second-place finish (its best showing in the WSL) and qualified for the UEFA Women’s Champions League for the first time.

Naeher went from +300 to +400 to fall into second place on the odds list.

Naeher was a two-time All-American at Penn State in 2007-08. She was 50-19-5 with 24 shutouts for the Nittany Lions.

Two of the top 10 on the odds list – Ayaka Yamashita of Japan and Gaelle Thalmann of Switzerland – did not allow a goal in group play.
