La última temporada de Lionel Messi en Barcelona fue una verdadera bolsa de gatos. Una renuncia por burofax, la filtración de su astronómico salario y campañas de la directiva del propio club para difamarlo online fueron parte de la tapicería que quedó expuesta a los ojos públicos.
Pero no fue todo.
La Jornada 1 de la Liga MX es historia. O más o menos, considerando que los partidos el Mazatlán vs. León y el Atlas vs. Toluca quedaron en la columna de pendientes debido a motivos de fuerza mayor, siendo estos la detención de un capo narco que desató una ola de violencia en Sinaloa y la mala condición del campo en el Estadio Jalisco.
Yep. Solo en la Liga MX.
Por supuesto, hubo goles, polémicas y situaciones únicas en cada partido. Y aquí nos hacemos cargo de un momento especial en cada uno de los duelos jugados.
France Football Federation (FFF) president Noël Le Graët apologized to Zinedine Zidane on Monday after his comments on the former Real Madrid coach drew the ire of players, politicians and even the Spanish club.
Zidane was one of the favorites to take charge of the national team if Didier Deschamps had stepped down but his contract was extended after he led France to the World Cup final, where they lost to Argentina in Qatar last month.
Wales and Los Angeles FC winger Gareth Bale said on Monday he had decided to end his playing career at the age of 33, having reached exceptional milestones in both club and international football.
Bale played a Wales record of 111 games for his country and was a five-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid. He helped the Welsh reach the 2016 and 2020 Euros before leading them in their first World Cup since 1958 at Qatar 2022.
Mexican international and Cruz Azul defender Julio César Domínguez ("Cata") has gone viral after several photos of his 12-year-old son came to light. What's the fuss about the images? They show he threw the kid a narco-themed birthday celebration.
Yikes!
People were quick to criticize Domínguez online, calling him out for trying to glorify and praise criminal organizations that are responsible for tens of thousands of deaths around Mexico every year.
Taylor Twellman is leaving ESPN. An iconic and sometimes polarizing figure in the U.S. Soccer sphere, Twellman has been on TV screens for ESPN since Nov. 2011 providing us with his commentary and occasional rant.
Love him or hate him, the former USMNT player has played a big part in growing the game in the country with his work at ESPN.

After getting more than 74 million "hearts" and becoming the most-liked post in the history of Instagram, the iconic photo of Lionel Messi lifting the World Cup trophy is again in the news.
This time for a very different and weird reason: Two Argentina supporters claim the trophy Messi was holding is a fake.
Una tormenta llena de drama azota al fútbol estadounidense. El protagonista es nada más y nada menos que Gregg Berhalter, técnico de Estados Unidos en el reciente Mundial de Catar 2022, y el guión incluye un viejo caso de violencia doméstica cometido en contra de su esposa, así como acusaciones de chantaje a la familia del futbolista Giovanni Reyna.
An attempt to blackmail USMNT manager Gregg Berhalter during the World Cup was revealed by Berhalter himself on Tuesday with the 49-year-old coach issuing a statement on Twitter from what was later confirmed as his personal account.
In it, Berhalter describes an incident from 31 years ago when, as an 18-year-old, he had a violent incident with his wife Rosalind. The two have now been married for 25 years but the actions occurred after they'd been together for four months.
After finishing his professional career on Nov. 8 with a red card and the infamous last words of "I s**t on your prostitute mother!" aimed at the referee, Gerard Piqué has returned to the limelight with his latest business venture, serving as the president of the Kings League in Barcelona.
