Con un estadio en contra y a través de los lanzamientos penales, las Rayadas de Monterrey acabaron con el reinado de Tigres y son las nuevas campeonas de la Liga MX Femenil.
This weekend's marquee match in Serie A saw fourth-place Napoli travel to the San Siro to play second-place AC Milan on Sunday with both teams trying to keep pace with Inter at the top of the table.
After Atalanta was hammered 4-1 by Roma on Saturday, a Napoli victory would see Gli Azzurri leapfrog both La Dea and Milan into second, while a win for the Rossoneri would keep them within one point of Inter at the top.
Bajo una espesa niebla en el Estadio Molineaux, Wolverhampton igualó 0-0 ante un Chelsea seriamente disminuido debido a un masivo brote de Covid-19 al interior de su plantel. El resultado, sin embargo, pudo haber sido diferente si Raúl Jiménez no hubiera arruinado el gol que pudo haber significado el triunfo para su equipo.
Después de caer ante Sevilla y sumar su tercera derrota consecutiva en LaLiga, el ambiente empieza a ponerse un poco tóxico al interior del vestuario del Atlético de Madrid.
O esto al menos es lo que transpira, luego de la aparición de un video en que Luis Suárez no se ve muy contento al momento de ser sustituido durante el juego ante los andaluces, estallando en contra de su entrenador, Diego Simeone.
De acuerdo a expertos lectores de labios, apenas vio que sería reemplazado, el uruguayo musitó: "Pelotudo de mierda. Siempre lo mismo".
LONDON - Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool raised the spirits with a rip-roaring 2-2 draw in a pre-Christmas Premier League classic on Sunday after a weekend marred by COVID-19 related postponements.
A mistake by Liverpool keeper Alisson gifted Tottenham's Son Heung-min a 74th-minute equalizer the hosts fully deserved although the visitors were fuming about some contentious decisions.
The debate over who should be the USMNT's starting striker will continue into 2022 despite Ricardo Pepi's recent heroics in front of goal. The 18-year-old was quiet on Saturday night in the national team's 1-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina (a match The18's David Moore likened to "cruel and unusual punishment"), and Gregg Berhalter will be closely monitoring the FC Dallas striker's competition abroad.
Si hay algo que caracterizó al 2021 del fútbol mexicano es la cadena de maldiciones que se rompieron durante la temporada. Cruz Azul ganó su primer título en 23 años y el Atlas dejó atrás una sequía de 70.
A ellos, ahora también se suma el Atlante. Los Portros de Hierro vencieron 3-0 al Tampico Madero y se quedaron con la corona de la Liga Expansión. ¿El récord roto? Después de 75 años, el Atlante es el primer equipo que logra un trofeo haciendo de local en el Estadio de la Ciudad de los Deportes. OK, la estadística es rebuscada, pero calza con la narrativa de los maleficios.
NEWCASTLE, England - Manchester City's João Cancelo scored one goal and made another as they overwhelmed struggling Newcastle United 4-0 on Sunday to ensure they will spend Christmas Day top of the Premier League, a position Liverpool occupied in the last three seasons.
The visitors were gifted the opening goal in the fifth minute when Cancelo acrobatically crossed for Rúben Dias to head into an empty net after a mix-up between Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dúbravka and defender Ciaran Clark.
The Phenom Guy/LeBron James Of Soccer/Soccer Superstar/Center Midfielder/Captain America/Teacher's Exchange Program Standout/Top Player In The Premier League/Most-Watched On Chelsea FC Team/Favorably Compared With Messi + Ronaldo/Finest Soccer — Or "Football" — Player In The World, Christian Pulisic, went 90 minutes for only the third time this season against Wolves at the Molineux on Sunday, but the 23-year-old couldn't provide the magic in a match that finished 0-0.
My apologies and condolences go out to any poor unfortunate souls who canceled their Saturday night plans to watch the USMNT play Bosnia and Herzegovina. The U.S. defeated Bosnia 1-0 in what was perhaps one of most mundane soccer games ever played.
With it not being an official international break, there was no Christian Pulisic or Weston McKennie caliber of starpower. The purpose of this friendly was a tune-up game ahead of World Cup qualifying in January. This was a chance for some youngsters and fringe players to prove themselves to head coach Gregg Berhalter.
