There was but one major global international soccer tournament in 2021. For some reason, the coach who inspired an underdog victory in that competition wasn’t deemed worthy by FIFA to even be a finalist for the organization’s FIFA Best Coach of 2021 award. Not that we’re the least bit surprised; we’ve long learned to expect the worst from FIFA.
Carlos Cordeiro, the former U.S. Soccer Federation president who resigned in disgrace after overseeing some of the most deplorable arguments the USSF has ever put forward in a lawsuit, wants his old job back. Megan Rapinoe, for one, has made her opinion known on the matter.

Liverpool raced to a 2-0 lead after 26 minutes at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, only to watch Mateo Kovačić and Christian Pulisic bring Chelsea level before halftime in a match that finished 2-2 and gave Manchester City a 10-point lead at the top of the Premier League.
Such has been City's relentless pace that both Chelsea and Liverpool entered knowing that a draw was as good as a defeat, and the Reds had to navigate the match without Jürgen Klopp on the sideline because of COIVD-19.
Se suponía que Lionel Messi debía tomar un vuelo privado desde Rosario a París, junto a Angel di María y Leandro Paredes. Sin embargo, el "30" del PSG se quedó en tierra, aislado en su casa por culpa del Covid-19, el mismo virus que había maldecido horas antes en redes sociales para despedir el 2021 y darle la bienvenida al 2022.
En Instagram, el argentino subió un post agradeciendo todos los logros personales conseguidos el año pasado, consciente de todas aquellas personas que no lo pasaron tan bien debido al "virus este de mierda que nunca se termina".
