Could El Tri Have Another Famous Brother Duo?

Soccer runs deep in Hirving “Chucky” Lozano’s family. 

The 23-year-old PSV player has been running riot in the Dutch League since the 2017 season. He has developed the same kind of hype that Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez did when he first joined Manchester United and El Tri fans absolutely love him. 

Injury cut short his opportunity to be a part of the team that won the 2019 Gold Cup this summer, but he his back to training with PSV, recently posting on his Instagram “Come on PSV.” 

Mexico's Hector Moreno Joins Al-Gharafa In Qatar

El Tri star Hector Moreno has made a switch from Real Sociedad to Al-Gharafa in Qatar. The Mexican defender has called an end to his European adventure at the age of 31. 

Moreno is arguably one of Mexico’s most consistent players over the years and has been an ever-present figure with El Tri. 

Recently proving his ability at the top by playing in Mexico’s successful 2019 Gold Cup run, he almost missed it due to injury but he ended up being able to play and helped lead the team to top the United States in the final. 

Little Feral Kitten ENDS André-Pierre Gignac’s Career

When whoever’s in charge of the worst competition ever created sits down to look at their social media numbers, they’ll see that the most liked/shared/commented/engaged with post of the 2019 Leagues Cup was a cat. Hopefully they’ll then decide to make the 2020 edition strictly cats. 

You see, it’s a helluva fine boi.

Time For MLS To Get Beatdown By Liga MX In The Most Meaningless Competition Ever Created

As someone whose job is soccer all day, everyday, I like to think that I have a pretty good grip on what’s going on, why it’s going on and when it’s going on. In what I feel is a pretty damning indictment of the newfangled Leagues Cup competition, I haven't a goddamn clue on any of those fronts.

Let’s figure out what in the hell this thing is together.

Who Plays In The Leagues Cup?

Ajax Welcomes Edson Álvarez With Video That Includes Hilarious Arjen Robben Dig

After selling 19-year-old field general Matthijs de Ligt to Juventus for nearly $85 million, Ajax immediately found a promising replacement in 21-year-old Mexican defender Edson Álvarez. The Dutch club paid América $17 million for his services, and it’s easy to imagine the versatile player excelling in the Eredivisie, much like Héctor Moreno dominated at PSV.

Maradona's Former Side Loses Youth Player In Stabbing Death

Los Dorados de Sinaloa have lost one of their promising youth players this week. 

Mirsha Francisco Herrera Gastélum, 20, was killed in a stabbing attack in Culiacan, Mexico, on Tuesday. 

He was on his way home after training when he was attacked in an attempted robbery. 

Incluso después de que Zlatan aplastara a su equipo, Carlos Vela insiste en que es el mejor jugador

Entiendo que los deportes profesionales están llenos de charlas basura y valentía; el comportamiento innecesario y machista está en todas partes. Pero hay un momento y un lugar para tal descaro, y después de una gran derrota ciertamente no es uno de ellos. Dicho esto, la rivalidad entre Zlatan y Vela se está convirtiendo en una de las mejores razones para ver la MLS esta temporada.

Antes de la edición del viernes por la noche de El Trafico entre el LAFC de Carlos Vela y el LA Galaxy de Zlatan Ibrahimovic, este último tenía algunas palabras para elegir al primero.

Edson Alvarez Becomes Latest El Tri Star To Move To Netherlands

Edson Alvarez is indeed heading to Ajax.

The Mexico International has just made his long-talked-about transfer to the Dutch league. 

Luis “Chapo” Montes: A Story Of Redemption

Luis “Chapo” Montes has had a wild ride with the Mexico national team. If you’re a fan of Club León or Liga MX, you’ll know who the diminutive 5-5 midfielder is. 

Montes has been a staple of Mexico’s top professional league since he made his debut in 2006 with Indios. He’s gone on to play for only three teams in his whole career and all in Mexico (he later made his breakthrough with Pachuca before transferring to León).

Héctor Herrera Included In MLS All-Star Skills Challenge After Atlético Transfer

For Mexican midfielder Héctor Herrera, finalizing a transfer this summer was at the forefront of his mind. That announcement was finally reported during the Gold Cup, and it was a big reason why Herrera ignored Tata Martino’s call-up and didn’t make the trip to the United States for the tournament.
