USA extends unbeaten run vs. Mexico to five games after lackluster Continental Crapico draw

If you only tuned into the last 10 minutes of the United States men’s national team's 1-1 draw vs. Mexico on Wednesday in the Continental Clásico friendly, then you saved yourself 80 minutes of suffering.

The USMNT made it five games in-a-row without a defeat to their archrivals thanks to a Jesús Ferreira equalizer in the 81st minute. 

Before I tell you about how awful the rest of the game was, let’s enjoy the big highlight of the game.

Ni en los moleros: El momento exacto en que México perdió la chance de volver a ganarle a Estados Unidos

México no puede con Estados Unidos. Ni en la Nations League, ni en la Copa Oro, ni en Eliminatorias ni en los amistosos moleros.

El Tri empató con el USMNT en Glendale, Arizona, y extendió a cinco el número de partidos en que no puede vencer a su más enconado rival. La última vez que lo hizo fue el 6 de septiembre de 2019, en tiempos donde la humanidad ni siquiera sabía de la existencia del COVID.

Qué tiempos aquellos.

La alineación con que México busca acabar su mala racha ante Estados Unidos

Se acabó el cabeceo con la pizarra. Diego Cocca tendría definida la alineación de México para su amistoso contra Estados Unidos, a jugarse este miércoles 19 de abril en Glendale, Arizona.

Etiquetado como "Clásico Continental", el partido es el primero de Cocca al mando del Tri y el primero de al menos dos que jugarán ambas selecciones este 2023.

UCLA unveils their new robot ARTEMIS — it’s over four feet tall and knows how to play soccer

Watch out, Lionel Messi. ARTEMIS is here.

Standing at 4 feet, 8 inches tall and weighing 85 pounds, ARTEMIS is a first-of-its-kind robot that University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) mechanical engineers developed, and it is ready for the pitch.

Using cutting edge technology, ARTEMIS, which stands for Advanced Robotic Technology for Enhanced Mobility and Improved Stability, can maintain its balance against heavy kicks and shoves, withstand objects being thrown at it and is capable of running. But what sets ARTEMIS apart on top of that is its ability to kick a ball.

Pulisic gets 0 minutes in Chelsea's 4-0 aggregate defeat to Real Madrid

For the 11th time in 13 seasons (mercy me), Real Madrid are through to the Champions League semifinals after Rodrygo's second-half brace at Stamford Bridge put the finishing touches on a commanding 4-0 aggregate victory over Chelsea.

As a 2022-23 Major Leeds Soccer fan, I've never been more embarrassed

I've been watching Leeds United like a Marcelo Bielsa assistant stationed in a bush for over eight months now. And to everyone out in West Yorkshire who's been watching since closer to the club's foundation in 1919, I just want to apologize: I'm sorry we gave you the total American soccer experience of not being very good at this game.

Like the American in An American Werewolf in London, I feel like my spiritual presence here in England has only left a trail of destruction, blood and tears. 

Lampard comes to Boehly's defense after American owner's ‘embarrassing’ dressing-room speech

Chelsea are not a "broken" team this season and co-owner Todd Boehly had every right to address the squad he has invested in, manager Frank Lampard said on Monday ahead of their Champions League quarterfinal against Real Madrid.

Chelsea, who trail Real Madrid 2-0 on aggregate after losing the first leg at the Santiago Bernabéu, come into the game on the back of a six-match winless run, with interim boss Lampard losing his first three games in charge.

Chaos is Cascadia and Vanzeir's underwhelming suspension: 5 takeaways from MLS Matchweek 8

Major League Soccer is bound by parity and married to the chaos that comes with it. With late goals, monumental upsets and high-scoring affairs, Matchday 8 was one for the books. 

The neck and neck goalscoring battle between Ricardo Pepi and Santi Giménez in the Eredivisie

The spicy rivalry between the USMNT and México is having a remarkable round in the 2022-23 Eredivisie as strikers Ricardo Pepi and Santiago Giménez battle neck and neck among the division's top scorers. After 29 games, both have netted 11 goals and are just three behind Xavi Simmons (PSV) and Anastasios Douvikas (FC Utrecht), who currently lead the race with 14 each.

Although the realities of their teams are extremely different, Pepi and Giménez are not giving space to each other with both finding the net again this weekend.
