The CONMEBOL statement in response to the shocking fight from Wednesday that saw Uruguay players clashing with Colombian fans in the stands was… lackluster.
Soccer fans around the world were appalled by scenes of Uruguay’s Darwin Núñez exchanging blows with fans in the stands of Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Wednesday’s Copa América semifinal ended with Colombia defeating Uruguay 1-0 and Darwin Núñez punching fans in the stands of Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The semifinal was another classic CONMEBOL clash that saw 24 fouls, six yellow cards and a red card. After the game tensions were high with the Colombians celebrating and Uruguay players and staff getting physical.
While the world and the United States continue to be mesmerized by the Euros and Copa América this summer, MLS still finds ways to stay relevant. Not exactly your goal of the week or silky move highlight, though.
Zorhan Bassong red card vs. FC Dallas
During Sporting Kansas City and FC Dallas’ MLS Matchday 22 match on Sunday, defender Zorhan Bassong was sent off following a messy altercation with Dallas’ Paul Arriola in the closing minutes of the game.
MUNICH — Netherlands' Cody Gakpo scored his third goal of the European Championship and Donyell Malen added two more late on as the Dutch burst back into form with a lively display to defeat Romania 3-0 in their last-16 fixture on Tuesday.
Malen notched his second in stoppage time when he collected the ball in midfield, dribbled into the penalty area and fired past Nita as the Dutch served notice that they have started to click at the tournament.

Like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, a viral video of the Illinois soccer field sinkhole has captured the attention of people everywhere.
On Wednesday morning a soccer field in Alton, Illinois, gave way after a mine underneath the park collapsed.
Security camera footage shows the shocking moment that a 30-feet deep hole emerged at the field.

After watching the torturous 0-0 draw between England and Slovenia I’ve come away with one conclusion: the Geico soccer commercial is going to drive me insane.
We’re a week and-a-half into the Euros and during every game I’m forced to watch the most annoying Geico soccer commercial. If I have to hear, “timeout for nacho-tots” one more time there will be a god damn hole in my wall.
It seems Geico know how utterly dogshit their commercial is as it’s not available anywhere on the internet.
Carli Lloyd just put Maradona, Messi and Pulisic in the same sentence.
U.S. women’s national team legend Lloyd is one of many former soccer stars invited to be a part of FOX Sports' live studio broadcasts in their coverage for the Euro and Copa America this summer. USMNT icons Alexi Lalas, Clint Dempsey, and Maurice Edu are also part of the panel.
France secured an unconvincing 1-0 victory vs. Austria on Monday and two moments really stood out. One was an unusual Kylian Mbappé miss and the other was an even more shocking Landon Donovan hair on air.
Monday’s game was Donovan and broadcast partner Ian Darke’s third game in charge of this Euros. Fans hardly, if at all, got to see the two men in the broadcast booth during the first games. They were on the screen on Monday and good goly Donovan’s hair was something.

Koeman is going band-for-band with Joachim Löw. And not exactly for their managerial skills.
The Netherlands won their first three points after coming back and defeating Poland 2-1 in the first match of Group D on Sunday.
Poland’s Adam Bursa opened the scoring in the first 15 minutes of the game, with the Netherlands turning the game around through Cody Gakpo and the clutch-substitute Wout Weghorst just seven minutes before the end of the match.
FOX is broadcasting this summer’s European Championship and Copa América, bragging about showing the “Summer of Soccer.” Too bad they didn’t show literally the second game of the Euros.
American fans woke up Saturday morning expecting to tune into Group A’s second match between Switzerland and Hungary. Little did fans realize that the game was streaming exclusively on Fubo.
That’s right. FOX decided there just wasn’t any room on Fox, Fox Sports 1 or Fox Sports 2 to show the SECOND GAME OF THE EUROS.
