Amid strong interest from clubs in Major League Soccer, it was with a view towards the 2018 World Cup that Andres Guardado decided to join Real Betis and continue pushing himself at the highest level in La Liga. After three starts for the Seville-based club, it’s apparent that the 30-year-old made the right decision. This is obviously his level.
Gareth Bale lo ha vuelto a hacer. Quizás mejor conocido por su impresionante carrera contra el Barcelona en la final de la Copa del Rey 2014 (en la que Usain Bolt dijo: "Es un gol que a cualquier velocista del mundo le gustaría marcar algún día. Es el futbolista más rápido del mundo en este momento.”), Bale ha vuelto a marcar un gol más para el Real Madrid.
Mientras que su velocidad máxima en el esfuerzo final de la Copa del Rey fue de 34,6 kilómetros por hora, Bale alcanzó las 35.19 km/h mientras se aferraba a un pase de Isco el domingo contra la Real Sociedad.
Barcelona continue to set the pace at the top of La Liga following a spirited, come from behind victory at Getafe on Saturday. A wonder goal from Gaku Shibasaki gave Azulones a shock lead, but second half strikes from Denis Suarez and Paulinho maintained Barcelona’s perfect start to the season after four matches.
There’s no fighting the feeling that the Champions League group stage has become more and more of a nonevent over the past few years. Over the course of this week’s action, we watched Chelsea hammer Qarabag 6-0, PSG pummel Celtic 5-0 and Manchester City put four unanswered past Feyenoord. Even the marquee matchup between Barcelona and Juventus had the feeling of an International Champions Cup match being played at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.
Gareth Bale has finally admitted what we’ve long known. In a recent interview the Wales and Real Madrid winger said his greatest flaw is that he is lazy.
Yep, just like you and me, Bale would rather sit on a couch watching Rick and Morty while eating Cheetos than score goals. And we have proof.
Parte de lo que hace a Luis Suárez tan brillante es que está absolutamente loco. En ocasiones, este rasgo de carácter en particular puede manifestarse mal, pero también es la misma peculiaridad que lo impulsó del Nacional de Montevideo al Camp Nou.
Suárez hizo su muestra en La Liga 2017-18 el sábado y esa locura se hizo patente en los últimos tres minutos del partido. Con el Barcelona liderando por 3-0, Suárez se volvió hilarantemente furioso con Gerard Piqué después de que el defensa anotó el cuarto del Barça en el minuto 87.
A recent interview with Espanyol midfielder Esteban Granero by Spanish daily El Pais has revealed a hilarious and insightful anecdote involving a 15-year-old Lionel Messi and a clash between the youth teams of Real Madrid and Barcelona.
For internet warriors that love calling people they don’t know fanboys and have a strange fixation with accusing others of different acts of oral sex, this is going to be nothing short of heresy, but I firmly believe it: Isco is the most mesmerizing footballer on the planet alongside Lionel Messi.
“Holy shit! You can’t draw a line between a Real Madrid player and a Barcelona player! You know nothing, Connor Fleming!”
