“The teaser shows Ted (Jason Sudeikis) back on the pitch, coaching a second-division women’s football team.”

VERIFIED BY REFERENCE

While the general theme of Ted coaching a women's team is mentioned in the web search results (Claim 6), the specific detail that the teaser shows Ted coaching a *second-division* women's football team is not explicitly confirmed by the provided evidence. The evidence is too general to verify this specific detail.
