Jermaine Jones destroza a Chicharito y propone un nuevo apodo para el delantero

Jermaine Jones ha proporcionado la mayor fuente de "material de cartelera" desde el vestidor de México al lanzar una evaluación mordaz del mexicano Javier 'Chicharito' Hernández. Si bien Jones dice que no etiquetaría a Chicharito como un "jugador sucio", sí cree que la afición del delantero mexicano por jugar directamente en la línea de fuera de juego lo convierte en algo molesto para enfrentarlo.

The USMNT Could Make A Massive Statement By Defeating Mexico

The United States vs. Mexico is one of the footballing world’s biggest international rivalries. The games are always intense, and the two sides clearly do not like each other.

It’s Official: There Will Be No Alcohol At The 2022 World Cup

While the focus has rightly been on corruption allegations in the bidding process, bribery, money laundering, forced labor, human rights abuses, the host country’s stance towards members of the LGBT community and climactic conditions resulting in a contentious decision to move the tournament to November and December, Qatari officials have come to another controversial decision by forbidding the consumption of alcohol “on the streets, squares and [in] public places” at the 2022 World Cup.

Mexico Name Strong, Attack-Minded Squad To Break The Dos-A-Cero Jinx

The Hex kicks off on November 11 in Columbus, Ohio with the big one: the United States versus Mexico. El Tri manager Juan Carlos Osorio has announced his squad for that match and their trip to Central America to play Panama four days later.

FIFA Ruling Puts Argentina’s World Cup Qualifying Campaign On The Brink

For Argentina, a nightmarish World Cup qualifying campaign somehow managed to grow worse outside of an international break. In early September, Bolivia had managed to gain an unlikely 0-0 draw with Chile and a 3-0 victory over Peru in CONMEBOL qualifying.
