VALENCIA - Atlético Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann scored a sensational individual goal against Valencia on Sunday but the LaLiga champions let a two-goal lead slip in stoppage time to draw 3-3 on Sunday.
Valencia were trailing 3-1 when seven minutes of time were added on but Hugo Duro scored twice in the final stretch of the game to salvage a point, to the delight of their raucous home fans.
VENICE - AS Roma’s slump continued with a 3-2 Serie A defeat by lowly Venezia on Sunday, as the hosts recovered from surrendering the lead before halftime to launch a sensational second half fightback.
José Mourinho’s side have one win in their last seven games in all competitions and have dropped out of the top four after picking up four points from their last five league games.
“This is not the year to dream big, but it is up to me to raise the ambition and motivation. Our goal is fourth place, but for some reason we have slid to sixth," Mourinho told DAZN.
VIGO — Barcelona threw away a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 at Celta Vigo in LaLiga on Saturday in a chaotic game which underlined the scale of the task facing incoming coach Xavi Hernandez.
Celta captain Iago Aspas completed a remarkable second-half comeback from the hosts by scoring in the fifth minute of added time after he had pulled their first goal back in the 52nd and Nolito had struck in the 74th to set up a tense finish.
Unless you’re one of the 15 people in the United States that closely follows the Slovenian PrvaLiga, you probably haven’t had an opportunity to see this amazing bicycle kick by NK Radomlje’s Gedeon Guzina on Friday.
Guzina doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page, but he certainly deserves one after his incredible goal.
I could tell you about the 27-year-old’s career in Bosnia or about Radomlje’s current standings, but I’ll skip all the fluff and just show you the goal.
Hay jugadores dispuestos a dar todo con tal de convertir un gol en la Champions League. Incluso si eso significa golpearse donde más duele. Caso en cuestión: Dusan Tadic, quien en la visita del Ajax al Borussia Dortmund anotó en una jugada en que no pudo evitar un duro choque de sus testículos con uno de los postes defendidos por el equipo alemán.
¡Ouch!
It looked like the writing was on the wall for Ole Gunnar Solskjær on Tuesday in Bergamo. As we entered second half stoppage time, Atalanta held a 2-1 lead. Manchester United’s attack had been disjointed, so much so that Paul Pogba was hooked in the 69th minute and Donny van de Beek was allowed to escape from his cave.
LA Galaxy logró rescatar un punto en su visita a Lumen Field, hogar del Seattle Sounders, manteniendo así vivas sus esperanzas de acceder a los playoffs de la MLS. El marcador final fue un 1-1 con no otro que Javier Hernández en el registro de los goleadores.
La conquista, por cierto, también sirvió al mexicano para continuar en la batalla por convertirse en el máximo artillero de la liga.
El delantero mexicano Raúl Jiménez anotó este lunes en la victoria por 2-1 del Wolverhampton sobre el Everton. La conquista de RJ9 no fue una de carácter anecdótico, sino que trajo bajo el brazo un par de hitos para el jugador.
Para comenzar, la diana fue la primera de Jiménez en el Molineaux después de su fractura de cráneo hace casi un año. Si bien Jiménez ya había anotado en esta temporada, el futbolista realmente anhelaba volver a hacerlo frente a su gente. De paso, el tanto correspondió al número 50 del Lobo defendiendo los colores del equipo inglés.
Pocas cosas deben molestar más a un entrenador que perder un partido en el último minuto de juego, por un irresponsable e imprudente penal de uno de sus defensas.
De hecho, no me cuesta imaginar el coraje que debió sentir Santiago Solari luego de ver a Emanuel Aguilera barriéndose sin cuidado sobre el tobillo de Orbelín Pineda y generando el penal que daría el triunfo a Cruz Azul durante el Clásico Joven de este domingo, cuando apenas faltaban centavos para el final del partido.
Two seasons ago Getafe was playing in the Europa League Round of 16. In 2021 the Spanish club picked up its first victory of the 2021-22 season after twelve LaLiga games. The results haven’t come for the club, but this Getafe bicycle kick during a 2-1 victory vs. Espanyol is sure to make fans smile.
Getafe striker Enes Ünal had himself a day to remember on Halloween. The festivities started in the 31st minute with a brilliant overhead kick to give Getafe the lead. This goal was scary good.
