Matt Miazga earned a second straight start on Tuesday since returning from Covid-19 for Alavés. It was a match he’ll want to forget, committing a shocking mistake to gift Real Betis a goal. The only bright side was Alavés conceded three other goals in a 4-0 defeat, including two beauties I must label Puskás worthy lest I be called out if one actually wins the honor in a year’s time.

The Sergiño Dest Chelsea rumors are at an all-time high for the 2022 winter transfer window. Dest has been seeking a move away from the Catalan club for some time now as the American has fallen out of favor with Barcelona’s new manager, Xavi.
Andrés Guardado no es un jugador que destaque por hacer trucos dentro del campo, pero nadie puede negar su constancia y regularidad. El mexicano es lo que llaman un metrónomo. Y si bien eso puedo sonar aburrido, sobre todo para la gente que quiere fuegos artificiales, en el sabor vainilla de su carrera, Guardado igual se las arregló hoy para conseguir algo increíble: superar a Hugo Sánchez como el mexicano con más partidos en Europa.
Este domingo 9 de enero, Guardado alcanzó su partido número 496 al otro lado del Atlántico.
Barcelona shared the points with Granada on Saturday with a 1-1 draw that saw a peach of an assist from Dani Alves. This truly felt like a blast from the past to see the 38-year-old doing what he does best in a Barcelona kit.
We at The18 recently looked at some of Alves’ best assists to Lionel Messi. Luuk de Jong was on the end of Alves’ ball against Granada, but we’re sure Messi would have been proud.
Todos sabíamos que Orbelín Pineda iría al Celta de Vigo. Hace meses, el Maguito decidió no renovar con el Cruz Azul señalando que tenía arreglada su llegada al equipo español, en una operación que dejó cero pesos, cero dólares y cero euros a La Máquina.
Su aterrizaje en LaLiga, sin embargo, no se hizo oficial hasta el día de hoy, cuando el equipo español finalmente lo presentó en sus redes sociales.

Osasuna’s Chimy Ávila made himself public enemy No. 1 on Monday when he attempted one of the dirtiest tackles on Athletic Club’s Nico Williams. Nico’s older brother, Iñaki, didn’t take kindly to Chimy Ávila’s actions and gave him an earful for the disgraceful tackle.

MADRID - An early goal from Turkish striker Enes Ünal shocked LaLiga leaders Real Madrid as they lost 1-0 at Getafe on Sunday and ended an unbeaten run that had lasted 15 matches in all competitions.
With 46 points from 20 games, Real Madrid are still top but are not as comfortable as before. Sevilla are second with 38 points and two games in hand, and will visit second-from-bottom Cádiz on Monday.
Después de una pausa de aproximadamente 10 días, LaLiga debería reiniciarse este fin de semana. Sin embargo, la posibilidad de que el plan se reconsidere está sobre la mesa debido al alto número de jugadores diagnosticados con Covid-19.
La variante omicrón está golpeando tan fuerte a la competencia que no hay equipo que no tenga al menos un contagiado entre sus filas. Los cálculos más conservadores estiman que la cifra de casos activos supera los 100.
