Lorenzo Insigne scored the go-ahead goal in the 79th minute and host Toronto FC ended the Portland Timbers' unbeaten run with a 3-1 win on Saturday.
Toronto (8-12-5, 29 points) improved to 3-0-1 in its past four games. Portland (7-7-12, 33 points) had been on a 4-0-6 run since its last defeat back on May 28, against Inter Miami.
In May a BBC headline accidentally ran on live television that stated, “Manchester United are rubbish.” Three months later that headline couldn’t be any truer as Brentford demolished the Red Devils 4-0 Saturday at Gtech Community Stadium.
Malik Tillman has done it again. The 20-year-old attacking midfielder scored a headed goal for the second game in-a-row on Saturday during Rangers’ 4-0 victory vs. St. Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership.
In the 32nd minute Tillman scored the opener with a giant leap at the back post. With a height of 6 feet and 1 inch the kid is becoming quite the aerial threat.
Timo Werner has returned to RB Leipzig and only needed 36 minutes to find the back of the net. Leipzig tied FC Köln 2-2 on Saturday and it was Werner who scored the opening goal.
Werner completed his transfer back to Leipzig from Chelsea on Tuesday for around $30 million. Four days later he’s taking shots 30 yards away from goal.

Alexandra Pinell has set the internet ablaze with one of the most incredible and mind-boggling goals in recent memory.
Costa Rica is hosting the 2022 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, and the home side played its first match against a talented Australian team. Setting up a free-kick from some 40 yards out, no one in the stadium expected Pinell to shoot. And yet, filled with adrenaline and confidence, the Costa Rica captain stood over the ball and knew exactly what was about to happen.
OH. MY. GOLAZO!
Carlos Vela no hace mucho goles de cabeza, pero un testarazo suyo lideró la victoria 2-1 de la MLS sobre la Liga MX en el All-Star Game.
Tan rara fue la ocurrencia que el mismo jugador de LAFC se mostró sorprendido por la anotación en los micrófonos de TUDN. "Es de los pocos goles que tengo de cabeza en mi carrera", señaló entre risas.
La anotación de Vela se produjo en los primeros compases del juego, cuando el mexicano apareció solo en el segundo poste para conectar un centro de su compañero en LAFC, Diego Palacios.
La selección sub-20 femenil de México desperdició la chance de iniciar el Mundial de Costa Rica con un triunfo y debió conformarse con un amargo empate 1-1 ante Nueva Zelandia.
El Tri fue ampliamente superior a sus rivales, pero falló una oportunidad tras otra frente al pórtico defendido por Murphy Lyn Hunt-Sheaf. ¿Cifras? México tuvo 22 remates buscando el arco y que solo uno haya entrado habla de la farra vivida en el estadio Alejandro Morera Soto.
Los sueños del PSV de meterse a la fase de grupos de la Champions League 2022-23 están más vivos que nunca y mucho tiene que ver en eso el mexicano Erick Gutiérrez, quien con un cabezazo agónico y salvador reanimó a su equipo cuando las esperanzas parecían perdidas.
El club neerlandés necesitaba un triunfo por cualquier marcador para sacar del camino al AS Monaco y seguir avanzando en las rondas clasificatorias de la competición eurorpea. Sin embargo, los del principado estuvieron a un pelo de convertir el Philips Stadion en un mar de lágrimas.
Malik Tillman, take a bow, if you’re done getting up.
Tillman, a 20-year attacking midfielder who surprised Germany by switching nationalities to represent the United States in May, left Bayern Munich on loan to Rangers this summer. He’s already becoming a club hero in Scotland.
It's almost been seven years to the day since Ronaldinho made his final professional appearance for Fluminense in the Brasileirão, meaning his "jogo bonito" spirit could've chosen a vessel for regeneration that's out there joyously working on their craft at this very moment.
