USMNT Flexes Its Roster Depth, Americans Trounce Costa Rica In Friendly

Watching the USMNT vs. Costa Rica finish 4-0 had me tingling with excitement as if it was Christmas morning and I was nine again. This team is damn fun to watch.

Si esta tarde hubiera estado en Marbella y hubiera tenido que decidir entre ir a la playa o ver el amistoso entre México y Arabia Saudita Sub 23, el fútbol salía a pérdida. 25ºC frente al mar, en cualquier escenario, son superiores a lo que mostraron ambas selecciones.

Justito después del almuerzo fue difícil mantener los ojos abiertos, pero por suerte Jesús “Canelo” Angulo dio algo para hablar y un triunfo para el Tri.

Gareth Southgate Slams Fans Who Booed Players Taking A Knee

England coach Gareth Southgate said some fans do not understand the message behind players taking a knee before matches after the gesture was booed ahead of Wednesday's 1-0 friendly win over Austria.

France’s Handbrake Is Off With Mbappé-Benzema-Griezmann Leading The Line

Up until France’s 4-2 victory over Croatia in the final of the 2018 World Cup, Les Bleus were criticized for playing with the sort of pragmatic control that wins you titles but few admirers. 

Half of the front four (Olivier Giroud and Blaise Matuidi) were employed in yeoman’s work, while the left flank of Lucas Hernandez, N'Golo Kanté and Matuidi was there to destroy any fleeting moments of opposition joy.
