The amazing Lionel Messi goal vs Benfica from October 5 was voted as the goal of the season for the 2022-23 UEFA Champions League on Friday.
Messi’s contract with PSG also expired on Friday meaning that on his last day of being under contract for a European club he won the goal of the season award. Not a bad way to go out.
Here’s the goal that won him the award.
Henry Martin's goal just after halftime sent Mexico on its way to a 3-1 win over Haiti on Thursday in Group B play at the CONCACAF Gold Cup in Glendale, Ariz.
This seems familiar

México volvió a ganar bajo las órdenes de Jimmy Lozano.
No hubo fuegos artificiales como ante Honduras, pero el 3-1 sobre Haití en Copa Oro, con sus aciertos y errores, fue un nuevo golpe de ánimo para un Tri que hace rato venía de capa caída.
¿La figura de la noche? Uriel Antuna, quien se lució con dos asistencias perfectas y que seguro le sirvieron para mandar un mensaje especial a todos sus haters.
It's been almost a year since two-time Ballon d'Or winner Alexia Putellas went down with an ACL injury that cost her a place at last summer's European Championship and almost the entire 2022-23 club season with Barcelona.
Her last appearance for Spain was actually July 2, 2022, when she received her 100th cap and scored her 27th goal in a friendly against Italy.
Now, after a long and demanding road to recovery, Putellas made her long-awaited return to the national team Thursday during a friendly against fellow World Cup participants Panama.
Jesús Ferreira scored three times and Djordje Mihailović had two goals and two assists to lead the U.S. men's national team to a 6-0 rout of St. Kitts and Nevis in St. Louis on Wednesday to move into a tie atop Group A with Jamaica in the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
The top two teams advance.
Brazilian defensive midfielder Guilherme Madruga scored a spectacular bicycle kick from distance in the second tier of Brazil on Tuesday to secure a 1-0 win for his club Botafogo-SP.
Madruga had yet to score a goal for the club this season, but on his 28th appearance he unleashed a Puskás-worthy strike.
El Tri resucitó, el Tri volvió a prender la ilusión.
En el primer partido de Jaime Lozano a cargo y en su debut en la Copa Oro, la Selección Mexicana barrió a Honduras por 4-0, mostrando un fútbol más liviano, sin estrés y altamente más efectivo que el triste espectáculo que traía en el cierre de la era de Gerardo Martino y los olvidables siete partidos que alcanzó a dirigir Diego Cocca.
Did anyone on the planet have a better week than Lynn Williams? Let's break it down.
On Tuesday, Williams went to the top of the Empire State Building to sign a new multi-year contract with NJ/NY Gotham FC through the 2025 season.

It's probably for the best that Lionel Messi was way too busy to watch Inter Miami play on Saturday night. While the Herons were getting smacked 4-1 by Philadelphia for a seventh consecutive defeat in MLS, Messi was celebrating his 36th birthday in his hometown of Rosario and playing in a testimonial match for Newell's Old Boys legend Maxi Rodríguez.
MLS is now past the halfway point in its season, and the summer break for the new Leagues Cup is quickly approaching. Players are missing important games thanks to international play, including the CONCACAF Gold Cup, but as we saw on Saturday night, some teams’ struggles are other sides’ gains, so let’s see what we learned on MLS Matchday 21.
What’s the saying about guarantees in life? Death, taxes and the Union scoring 4+ goals against weak opposition? It's not? Well, maybe it should be.
