Christian Pulisic had to be substituted out in the first half of Chelsea’s 1-0 Premier League defeat to Manchester City on Thursday after picking up an injury. The Pulisic injury happened in the 16th minute when John Stones put in a perfect tackle to deny the American a clean shot on goal.
Pulisic tried to continue playing but was replaced by Carney Chukwuemeka in the 22nd minute.
Already out of the Champions League, Barcelona's season almost took another turn for the worse on Wednesday when third-tier Intercity (founded 2017 in the Valencian Community) forced them into extra-time in the Copa del Rey Round of 32 with a 3-3 scoreline after 90 minutes.
After another memorable performance in Qatar for Mr. World Cup (stonewalling Robert Lewandowski from the penalty spot), Guillermo Ochoa made his Serie A debut with Salernitana on Wednesday against defending champions AC Milan.
Salernitana hosted at Stadio Arechi, but the gap between the two sides was evident with Milan putting 11 shots on target to just one for the hosts.
Guillermo Ochoa jugó sus primeros minutos en el arco del Salernitana y en su debut encandiló a Italia con sus atajadas.
El arquero mexicano defendió la valla ante el AC Milan en un partido en el que tuvo un inicio dubitativo, con un par de errores que no se pueden meter bajo la alfombra, pero que acabó con manotazos heroicos que evitaron un resultado más abultado que el "apretado" 2-1 con que terminó el encuentro.
En concreto, Ochoa registró nueve paradas que sacaron suspiros entre aficionados y la prensa especializada.
La cartelera de la tercera ronda de la Copa Rey este martes prometía acción para varios mexicanos en España.
El número central era el debut de César Montes en el Espanyol vs. Celta de Vigo. Pero la oferta también daba la rara oportunidad de ver al mediocampista Luis Fernando Télles del humilde CP Cacereño enfrentando al todopoderoso Real Madrid, mientras que el Sporting de Gijón visitaba al Rayo Vallecano con Jordan Carrillo en su arsenal.
Y de los tres, fue Carrillo el que más impresionó.
El debut de Guillermo Ochoa con los colores del Salernitana es inminente. Memo, de hecho, aparece entre los citados por el técnico Davide Nicola para el próximo partido de I Granata en la Serie A ante el AC Milán, campeón defensor de la competencia.
La cita del Salernitana con los rossoneri está programada para este miércoles 4 de enero (6:30 a.m. ET) y de acuerdo a la información proveniente desde la península itálica tendrá a Memo Ochoa atajando desde el primer minuto.

LONDON - Brentford pulled off their latest Premier League shock by beating Liverpool 3-1 at home on Monday, bringing Jürgen Klopp's side's four-game winning streak to an end and rattling their top-four ambitions.
Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konaté knocked the ball into his own net in the 19th minute while Yoane Wissa doubled Brentford's advantage before halftime after his side had two goals disallowed following VAR reviews in a frantic opening 45 minutes.
When Cristiano Ronaldo signed a two and a half year deal with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr on Friday, the Portuguese legend put pen to paper on a contract worth $75 million annually, meaning he'll almost certainly still be the world's highest paid footballer when he turns 40 on Feb. 5, 2025.
