First team to score at least 100 goals in a season: Valencia in 1941–42 (111 in 34 appearances).
It should be noted though that a number of teams managed to score over 100 goals in a season during the 1930s when the national league and cup were played alongside the regional leagues. Most prolific among those was the Athletic Bilbao team of the early 1930s scoring 126 goals in 1929–30, 137 goals in 1930–31, 127 goals in 1931–32, 127 goals in 1932–33 and 115 goals in 1933–34, others include Real Oviedo scoring 114 goals in 1933–34 and 110 goals in 1935–36.
Most goals in a season besides Real Madrid and Barcelona: 119 in 60 appearances by Sevilla in 2014–15 season.

text: Production[edit]

text: Top of the Lake[edit]

text: Actress Jennifer Ehle auditioned for the role of GJ, which went to Holly Hunter. Jane Campion originally offered the role of Robin to Anna Paquin, who had worked with her on The Piano (1993). Paquin declined due to her pregnancy, and the role went to Elisabeth Moss.[8]

text: The series was originally intended as a co-production with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. But after American-born Elisabeth Moss was cast, the network pulled their funding before production began, citing a prior agreement to put an Australian actress in the lead.[9] Australian-based channel UKTV, owned by BBC Worldwide, filled the funding gap left by the ABC.[10] Philippa Campbell was the New Zealand-based producer.

text: Filming took 18 weeks and was shot entirely on location in Queenstown and Glenorchy, in Otago, on the South Island of New Zealand. While Queenstown is referred to during the series, Glenorchy doubles as the fictitious town of Laketop. The scenes in the women's commune were filmed at Moke Lake.[8]

text: Top of the Lake: China Girl[edit]

text: In early 2013, co-creator Jane Campion said that Top of the Lake comes to a distinct ending, and there would be no additional series.[11] Despite this, it was announced in October 2014 that the series had been renewed for a second season.[12] China Girl began shooting on location in Sydney, Australia in December 2015.[13][14]

text: Campion returned as co-writer and co-director. Gerard Lee returned as co-writer. The original co-director, Garth Davis, was replaced by Ariel Kleiman due to scheduling conflicts.[15] Philippa Campbell returned as producer. Actress Nicole Kidman joined the cast for China Girl, which is the second time she has worked with Campion. Kidman "plays an Australian mother, Julia, whose story dovetails with that of Detective Robin Griffin", played by Elisabeth Moss.[16] Christie, a fan of Campion's The Piano, joined the cast after sending a letter through a mutual friend.[17]

text: Release[edit]

text: Top of the Lake screened in its entirety at the January 2013 Sundance Film Festival, in a single seven-hour session with one intermission and a break for lunch. This was the first such screening in the history of the festival.[18] Top of the Lake was additionally shown at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival.

text: The US premiere was on the Sundance Channel on 18 March 2013,[19] in Australia on BBC UKTV on 24 March 2013,[20] and in New Zealand on 25 March, also on BBC UKTV.[21]

text: China Girl was screened in its entirety at the May 2017 Cannes Film Festival.[22] In the UK, it premiered on BBC Two on 27 July 2017, and the entire series was released on the BBC iPlayer immediately afterwards. [23] In the US, it premiered in September 2017, on Sundance TV,[24] and each episode will be available on Hulu the day after its screening on SundanceTV.[25] In Canada, China Girl will premiere on Wednesday, October 25, 2017, on CBC Television.[26]

text: Reception[edit]

text: Reviews of Top of the Lake have been positive, referring to the series as "masterfully made", "beautiful", "mysterious", "riveting", and "a masterpiece".[30][31][32][33][34] It received a score of 86 out of 100 from Metacritic[35] and a score of 93 per cent from Rotten Tomatoes.[36]

text: There were also some less positive reviews. Mike Hale of The New York Times criticized the "elaborately introduced plotlines" and described Tui's disappearance as "less a story element than a metaphor for the kind of armed resistance to male hegemony that constitutes the central idea of Ms Campion’s body of work."[37]

text: Top of the Lake was lauded by feminist critics[38] for its explicit effort to analyse rape culture[39] as well as its radical construction of narratives entirely foregrounding the experiences of single women.[citation needed]

document_title: The Death of Stalin

question_tokens: who plays zhukov in the death of stalin

text: The Death of Stalin

text: Plot[edit]

text: Pianist Maria Yudina hides a note in a recording for Joseph Stalin, saying he has ruined the country. As Stalin reads it in his dacha, he is paralysed by a cerebral haemorrhage. The members of the Central Committee are alerted. The first to arrive are Interior Ministry (NKVD) head Lavrentiy Beria, who discovers Maria's note, and Deputy General Secretary Georgy Malenkov. As Malenkov panics, Beria guides him to take leadership, hoping to use him as a puppet.

text: Moscow Party Head Nikita Khrushchev arrives with the rest of the Committee, except for Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov, whom Stalin added to one of his lists of enemies the night previously. Beria closes off Moscow, has the NKVD take over city security duties from the Soviet Army, and replaces Stalin's enemy lists with his own, reprieving Molotov. Khrushchev and Beria struggle for symbolic victories such as control over Stalin's unstable son Vasily and daughter Svetlana.

text: When Stalin dies, the Committee members rush back to Moscow as the NKVD loot Stalin's dacha and execute witnesses. Khrushchev goes to Molotov's home and attempts to enlist his support, but Molotov, a true believer in Stalinism, opposes any factionalism within the Party. Beria buys his loyalty by releasing his wife Polina Molotova from confinement.

text: Malenkov is named as nominal Premier while being largely controlled by Beria. At the first Committee meeting following Stalin's death, Beria sidelines Khrushchev by putting him in charge of Stalin's funeral and suggesting many of the liberal reforms which Khrushchev had planned. Stalin's body is laid in state in the Hall of Columns, while many political prisoners are released and restrictions on the Russian Orthodox Church are loosened, earning Beria more popular support. Field Marshal Georgy Zhukov arrives and demands to know why the Soviet Army troops have been confined to barracks within Moscow.

text: Beria learns that Khrushchev has a passing acquaintance with Maria, who was hired to play at the funeral, and threatens them both with the note. Khrushchev approaches Zhukov, who agrees to provide the Army's support in a coup to overthrow Beria, but only if the Committee agrees.

text: To undermine Beria's popularity, Khrushchev orders the trains into Moscow to resume, allowing thousands of mourners into the city. As he planned, the NKVD guards around the Hall fire on the crowd, killing 1,500 people. The Committee suggests scapegoating low-level NKVD officers; as Beria believes blame attached to security services will tarnish him, he angrily threatens the Committee with incriminating documents he has collected on them. Molotov secretly tells Khrushchev and Kaganovich he will support the coup if they can enlist the support of the others, including Malenkov.

text: On the day of Stalin's funeral, Khrushchev lies to the Committee and Zhukov that he has Malenkov's support. The Soviet Army overwhelms the NKVD and takes up positions outside the conference room. Zhukov and his men arrest Beria, and Khrushchev coerces Malenkov into signing the papers for Beria's trial. Khrushchev and his allies find Beria guilty of treason and of sexual assault in a kangaroo court and execute him. As Beria's body is burnt, Khrushchev gives Svetlana a ticket to Vienna and assures her that her brother will be cared for. Several years later, Khrushchev, now Supreme Leader of the Soviet Union after removing his co-conspirators, attends a concert given by Maria, while future leader Leonid Brezhnev, only a row above, watches him.

He's gotten away with it, really. We’ve quietly drawn a veil over him and not really concerned ourselves too much about him."

text: The project began development during the 2016 Cannes Film Festival. Armando Iannucci was set as director and co-writer, alongside regular collaborators David Schneider,[4] The Thick of It co-writer Ian Martin, and Peter Fellows.

Production began 20 June 2016 and ended 6 August.[5]
Filming locations included Kiev, Ukraine (for exteriors scenes and exterior of Public Enemies building and NKVD building), and the United Kingdom (at Blythe House, Freemasons’ Hall and Alexandra Palace in London, Mongewell Park in Oxford).[6]

text: Release[edit]

text: The Death of Stalin was released by eOne Films in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2017 and IFC Films in the United States on 9 March 2018.[7][8][1] The film was screened in the Platform section at the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival.[9]

text: As of  7 June 2018[update], The Death of Stalin has grossed $8 million in the United States and Canada and $10.6 million in other territories (including $7.3 million in the UK), for a worldwide total of $18.5 million.[2]

text: Ban in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan[edit]

text: Nikolai Starikov, head of the Russian Great Fatherland Party, said The Death of Stalin was an "unfriendly act by the British intellectual class" and part of an "anti-Russian information war".[10] In September 2017, the head of the Public Council of the Russian Ministry of Culture said Russian authorities were considering a ban on the film, alleging the film could be part of a "western plot to destabilise Russia by causing rifts in society".[11] On 23 January 2018, two days before film's scheduled release in Russia,[12] a screening was attended by State Duma MPs, representatives of the Russian Historical Society, members of the Culture Ministry's Public Board, and film industry members. Two days later, the Ministry of Culture withdrew the film's distribution certificate. However, several cinemas screened the film in late January, claiming that by then they didn't receive any information that the movie's exhibition license was revoked. Russia's culture ministry filed a lawsuit against these theatres.[13]

text: According to the results of a poll conducted by the state-run Russian Public Opinion Research Center (VTSIOM), 35% Russians disapproved of the Culture Ministry’s decision to pull the film off the screens, while 30% respondents supported the ban and 35% remained neutral. 58% Russians said they would be prepared to watch the film in cinemas if the ban were lifted.[14]

text: A group of Russian Culture Ministry’s lawyers, including the daughter of Marshal Zhukov, Era Zhukova, cinematographers Nikita Mikhalkov, Vladimir Bortko, and Head of the Russian State Historical Museum Alexey Levykin,[15] petitioned Culture Minister Vladimir Medinsky to withdraw the film's certification, saying "The Death of Stalin is aimed at inciting hatred and enmity, violating the dignity of the Russian (Soviet) people, promoting ethnic and social inferiority, which points to the movie's extremist nature. We are confident that the movie was made to distort our country's past so that the thought of the 1950s Soviet Union makes people feel only terror and disgust."[16] The authors said the film denigrated the memory of Russian World War II fighters. They pointed out that the National Anthem was accompanied with obscene expressions and offensive attitude, decorations were historically inaccurate, and that the planned release on the eve of the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad was "a spit in the face of all those who died there, and all those who are still alive".[15] The film was banned in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.[17] Armenia is the only member of the Eurasian Economic Union to show it. In Armenia, the film premiered in two theatres in Yerevan on 25 January 2018. In Kazakhstan, the film was screened only in the Clique festival.[17][18]

text: Critical response[edit]

text: On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 96% based on 205 reviews, with an average rating of 8.2/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "The Death of Stalin finds director/co-writer Armando Iannucci in riotous form, bringing his scabrous political humor to bear on a chapter in history with painfully timely parallels."[19] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 88 out of 100, based on 42 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[20]

text: Donald Clarke, writing for The Irish Times, wrote that the film "starts in a state of mortal panic and continues in that mode towards its inevitably ghastly conclusion".[21] In The Guardian, Peter Bradshaw wrote that "fear rises like gas from a corpse in Armando Iannucci's brilliant horror-satire". Bradshaw says it "is superbly cast, and acted with icy and ruthless force by an A-list lineup. There are no weak links. Each has a plum role; each squeezes every gorgeous horrible drop."[22]

text: Raphael Abraham, writing for Financial Times, wrote that "As this coven of vampiric apparatchiks feasts on the remains of Stalinism, the unremitting blackness of the situation at times threatens a full comedy eclipse. But the discomfiting balancing act of humour and horror is precisely Iannucci's game—and only he could pull it off with such skill."[23]

text: Historical accuracy[edit]

text:
A number of academics commented on the historical accuracy of The Death of Stalin. Historian Richard Overy noted in The Guardian that the film "is littered with historical errors", which can be "viewed as cinematic licence". Vyacheslav Molotov was not foreign minister when Stalin died but had been sacked in 1949, though he became so again in the post-Stalin reshuffle. Marshal Zhukov (not Field Marshal) was a local field commander when Stalin died, exiled to the provinces to satisfy Stalin’s paranoid jealousy of his highly successful wartime deputy supreme commander. He became deputy minister of defence in the post-Stalin government but he was not the commander of the Red Army in March 1953. Nikita Khrushchev chaired the meeting to reorganise the government, not Georgy Malenkov, giving him a status he does not enjoy in the film. Beria was arrested three months after Stalin died, not almost simultaneously, and he was not head of the security forces, a job he had given up in 1946. [24]
However, Richard Overy was most critical that the film did not appropriately honour those who died during Stalin's leadership. Director Iannucci stated that he "chose to tone down real-life absurdity" to make the work more believable.[25]

text: Samuel Goff, at the Department of Slavonic Studies, University of Cambridge, while admitting that the film's historical discrepancies could be justified inasmuch as they helped focus the drama, found turning Beria into "an avatar of the obscenities of the Stalinist state" misses the chance to say "anything about the actual mechanisms of power."[26] Goff believed that Iannucci's approach to satire was not transferable to something like Stalinism, and the film is "fundamentally ill-equipped to locate the comedy inherent to Stalinism, missing marks it doesn't know it should be aiming for."[26]

question_tokens: when does the national women 's soccer league start

text: National Women's Soccer League

text: Competition format[edit]

text: The NWSL season runs from April–September with each team scheduled for 24 regular season games, 12 each of home and road.[5] At the end of the regular season, the team with the highest point total is awarded the regular season title. The four clubs with the most points from the regular season standings qualify for the NWSL playoffs, which consist of two semifinal single knockout matches (top seed hosts fourth; second hosts third), with the semifinal winners advancing to the championship final hosted by the team with most regular season points.[6]

text: History[edit]

text: Founding[edit]

text: After Women's Professional Soccer (WPS) officially folded in April 2012, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) announced a roundtable for discussion of the future of women's professional soccer in the United States. The meeting, which included representatives from USSF, WPS teams, the W-League (ceased operation in 2015), and the Women's Premier Soccer League (WPSL), was held in June and resulted in the planning of a new league set to launch in 2013 with 12–16 teams, taking from each of the three leagues. Compared to WPS, the teams would have a relatively low salary cap of $500,000,[7] though this was later lowered to $200,000.[8]

text: In November 2012, it was announced that there would be eight teams in a new women's professional soccer league that was yet to be named at the time of the announcement, subsidized by the USSF, the Canadian Soccer Association (CSA) and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF). The three federations would pay for the salaries of their national team players (24 from the US, 16 from Canada, and 12 to 16 from Mexico) to aid the teams in creating world-class rosters while staying under the salary cap. The players would be distributed evenly (as possible) among the eight teams in an allocation process. USSF would run the league offices and set the schedule.[9]

text: On November 29, 2012, it was announced that Cheryl Bailey had been named Executive Director in the new league. Bailey had previously served as General Manager of the United States women's national soccer team from 2007 to 2011, which included leading the support staff for the U.S. team during the 2007 and 2011 FIFA Women's World Cups, as well as the 2008 Summer Olympics. During her tenure with the women's national team, she was in charge of all areas of administration including interfacing with clubs, team travel, payroll, and working with FIFA, CONCACAF, and other federations.[10]

text: Early years[edit]

text: The first NWSL game was held on April 13, 2013, as the Portland Thorns visited FC Kansas City, playing to a 1–1 draw in front of a crowd of 6,784 fans at Shawnee Mission District Stadium. Renae Cuellar scored the first goal in league history.[11][12] The 2013 season saw regular-season attendance average of 4,270, with a high of 17,619 on August 4 for Kansas City at Portland.[13][14]

text: The NWSL became the first U.S. professional women's soccer league to reach nine teams with the expansion of the MLS-backed Houston Dash in 2014; expansion interest, particularly from MLS teams, has continued.[15][16] The third season saw a shortened schedule and some early-season roster instability due to the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada, but the World Cup also provided exposure to the NWSL, which was credited with boosting attendance numbers across the league.[15]

text: The league also became the first professional women's league in the US to play more than three seasons when the league kicked off its fourth season in 2016.[17]

text: Teams[edit]

text: Current teams[edit]

text: Nine NWSL teams are spread across the United States. Each club is allowed a minimum of 18 players on their roster, with a maximum of 20 players allowed at any time during the season.[18]

text: Originally, each team's roster includes up to three allocated American national team players, up to two allocated Mexico women's national team players, and up to two Canadian allocated national team players via the NWSL Player Allocation and subsequent trades.[19] In addition, each team has four spots available for international players.[20] The remaining roster spots must be filled by domestic players from the United States. Teams fill their rosters via a number of drafts and 4–6 discovery player signings.[18]

text: Former teams[edit]

text:
Boston Breakers — 2013–2017 (NWSL franchise ceased operations)[22]
FC Kansas City — 2013–2017 (NWSL membership interest re-acquired by the league and subsequently ceased operations; its player-related assets were transferred to the expansion side Utah Royals FC)[23]
Western New York Flash — 2013–2016 (NWSL franchise sold and relocated as the North Carolina Courage[24]; organization now plays in the second-division United Women's Soccer[25])

text: Membership Timeline[edit]

text: Expansion[edit]

text: Soon after launch, the league reportedly planned to expand to ten teams for 2014.[26] Potential candidates included groups not accepted as part of the original eight; groups from the Los Angeles area (joint effort from the LA Strikers and Pali Blues)[27] and from Hartford, Connecticut[28] were confirmed failed bids, as was one from the Seattle Sounders Women. There was speculation that the Vancouver Whitecaps Women could be logical candidates especially given the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada; however, the Whitecaps cancelled their women's program (except for one U-18 academy team) in December 2012.

text: During the inaugural season, there were rumors of expansion interest from MLS teams Toronto FC[citation needed][29] and the New York Red Bulls,[citation needed] as well as confirmed interest from WPSL side the Houston Aces.[30] NWSL team owners hinted that expansion for 2014 was not a question of "if" but "how many".[31][32] Despite this, it was announced during the playoffs that there would be no expansion for the league's second season,[33] though the Red Bulls and Sky Blue FC confirmed that they were in discussions for cooperation.[31][34]

text: During the first offseason, the Houston Dynamo added their name to the list of MLS teams interested in fielding a women's side, stating that they were "exploring the opportunity" of starting an NWSL side in 2014 or '15[35] and in 2013 they announced the Houston Dash with 2014 as their inaugural season.[36] By early December, NWSL approved a new team run by the Dynamo organization for expansion in 2014,[37] despite their earlier statement that there would be no expansion for the league's second season.

text: During the second offseason, expansion talk grew rapidly, with three established men's teams (Real Salt Lake of MLS, the Indy Eleven of NASL, and the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of USL Pro) expressing interest in joining NWSL, as well as an unattached group from Atlanta. There was also rumored or suggested interest from three men's teams in California, though none of those groups made official statements. Despite this interest, it was announced in late April 2015 that there would be no expansion for the 2016 season.

text: However, after the well-publicized success of the US Women's National soccer team, renewed interest in NWSL expansion caused reports from the owners' meeting that "a new team in 2016 has not been ruled out", with potential expansion news to be revealed within a month.[38] Commissioner Jeff Plush said that over a dozen interested groups had contacted the league in the post-World-Cup weeks; MLS team Orlando City SC was one of the first newly interested groups made public.[39][40][41] On October 20, 2015, it was announced that Orlando would be hosting the 10th NWSL team, the Orlando Pride, due to start the 2016 season.[42] At that announcement, the Pride announced that they had hired former U.S. National Women's Team coach Tom Sermanni.

text: On November 16, 2017, it was announced that Real Salt Lake would expand into the NWSL beginning in the 2018 season. The Salt Lake City team, shortly thereafter unveiled as Utah Royals FC, is officially considered a new franchise that replaced FC Kansas City. That team, partnered with but not owned by Sporting Kansas City, was seen by media as an unintended victim of issues that Sporting was facing with its United Soccer League reserve team, Swope Park Rangers.[43]

text: Organization[edit]

text: Stadiums and attendance[edit]

text: As of the upcoming 2018 season, the NWSL will use nine stadiums. The highest attendance in the league's history occurred on April 23, 2016 at the Orlando Citrus Bowl when 23,403 people watched the Orlando Pride defeat the Houston Dash 3–1 in a regular season home match.[44] Other than this match, the top attendances in the league have occurred at Providence Park for home games of Portland Thorns FC.

text: Squad formation and salaries[edit]

text: In each season, teams receive a salary cap that limits their total spending on players. The salaries of allocated players from the United States, Canadian, and Mexican national teams are paid by their respective federations instead of their NWSL clubs, and do not count against their club's salary cap.[45]

text: Non-allocated players, including international players, also have minimum and maximum salary limits. Players allocated by the US, Canadian, or Mexican federations are also exempt from these limits.[46][47][48]

text: Players' association[edit]

text: Active non-allocated players, including unpaid amateur players, announced their formation of a players' association on May 15, 2017, as the first step toward forming a union. Membership is limited to non-allocated players because allocated players are members of their own federation-affiliated labor organizations and negotiate contracts covering NWSL play with their respective national federations instead of the league or clubs.[49][50][51] The association is led by civil rights attorney and former WPS players' union organizer Meghann Burke.[52]

text: Broadcasting[edit]

text: During the 2013–2016 seasons, the majority of league games were available for viewing via YouTube or via individual team's websites.[53] Of the eight teams in the league during the inaugural season, the Boston Breakers were the only team that charged a fee for access to their broadcasts.[54]

text: On April 18, 2013, NWSL signed a one-year agreement with Fox Sports to televise six regular season games, the semi-final, and championship games on Fox Sports 2.[55]

text: On May 28, 2014, the NWSL signed a one-year agreement with ESPN to televise nine games of the 2014 NWSL season. The matches included three regular season and three playoff matches on ESPN2, as well as 3 regular season games live-streamed on ESPN3.[56]

text: On June 30, 2015, the NWSL announced a one-year agreement with Fox Sports once more to cover ten matches. Three regular season and three playoff matches were televised on FS1, and four live-streamed on Fox Sports Go.[57] The agreement was extended into 2016 under another one-year contract, covering three regular season matches and the three playoff matches, once again on FS1.[58]

text: On February 2, 2017, the NWSL announced a three-year agreement with A+E Networks, in which Lifetime broadcasts 22 regular-season matches as the NWSL Game of the Week at 4 p.m. Eastern on Saturday afternoons, as well as three post-season matches. This marked the first time that the NWSL had a weekly broadcast window throughout the entire season. Players also wear a sleeve patch of the network's logo on their uniforms. As part of the deal, A&E Networks also purchased a 25% equity stake in the NWSL, were granted two seats on the league's board, and formed a joint venture with the league known as NWSL Media to oversee the league's marketing and broadcast rights. This deal marked the first time Lifetime had broadcast sports since the WNBA in the late 1990s and early 2000s.[59][60][61][62][63] Lifetime also streams the game of the week in the United States via its website, and internationally in the NWSL website and iOS app. The remaining games are streamed exclusively by go90 in the United States as part of a paid multi-year sponsorship agreement, and through the NWSL website internationally.[59]

text: The quality of the streams through go90 faced criticism, with sportswriters, users, as well as players and team staff, criticizing the service for its inconsistent quality, and arguing that the NWSL's growth could be harmed by go90's relative lack of reach and prominence when compared to YouTube.[64][65] The Equalizer noted that the app was prone to crashing, did not have the same wide device support as YouTube,[66] and that the telecasts themselves suffered from their own technical problems (such as poor camera angles and glitches with graphics), but that the streams were good when they worked.[67] On May 19, 2017, the league announced that they would additionally stream games on the NWSL website and app in the U.S. until the technical issues with go90 were rectified.[68]

text: After Houston Dash player Rachel Daly collapsed on the pitch after a match in Houston, on May 27 — where the heat index was reportedly over 100 degrees Fahrenheit — she was carried off on a stretcher and hospitalized for heat illness. League operations director Amanda Duffy subsequently announced that the NWSL Game of the Week matches, many of which were slated for the hottest parts of the day in humid cities such as Houston, Orlando, and Cary, North Carolina, would be rescheduled to allow for longer hydration breaks. Some Game of the Week matches changed to other venues, and teams not scheduled for television were granted more flexibility in rescheduling kickoffs for player safety. The league also adopted new procedures for addressing heat and rescheduling matches.[69][70]
