Weston McKennie Snubbed From UEFA’s Goal Of The Season List By Goals Nowhere Near As Good

I have a bone to pick with you, UEFA. Not only did you block me from embedding your video with all the nominations for Goal of the Season, forcing me to find them on Twitter, but you didn’t include Weston McKennie’s scissor-kick goal at Camp Nou. I need to have a word with the committee.

Chakafú Le Dio La Victoria A Un Tri Que Sudó La Gota Gorda Ante El Salvador

Uno de los jugadores más criticados en el México de Gerardo Martino ha sido el lateral derecho Luis Rodríguez. El Chaka, hay que ser sinceros, no ha tenido un gran rendimiento: sus subidas no generan peligro y en defensa los rivales suelen hacerse un picnic por su banda.

Sin embargo, ante El Salvador, el jugador tuvo una pequeña revancha, al anotar el único gol del duelo entre el Tri y El Salvador. 

Tigres, su equipo, incluso lo rebautizó como Chakafú, en alusión al mítico lateral brasileño y campeón del mundo, Cafú.

Mexico Wins Group A, But El Salvador Looks Great Ahead Of World Cup Qualifying

Thanks to Chaka Rodríguez’s 26th-minute goal, Mexico defeated El Salvador 1-0 on Sunday night and won Gold Cup Group A, meaning that the United States and El Tri can’t possibly meet until the final. 

But based on the evidence of the group stage, if either side overlooks their opponents in the quarterfinals or semifinals, they’re going home. 

Cruz Azul Es El Campeón De Campeones Gracias A Un Doblete Del Cabecita De Oro

A la hora de hacer predicciones todos tenemos muchos, pero muchos más fallos que aciertos. Por eso, cuando le apuntamos, queremos presumirlos. ¡Ejem! ¡Ejem! Cruz Azul ganó el Campeón de Campeones luego de derrotar al León por 2-1. Tal como les dije aquí.

Los espectadores que acudieron al Children's Mercy Park para ver el duelo entre Estados Unidos y Canadá, en el cierre del Grupo B de la Copa Oro 2021, no tuvieron que esperar mucho para celebrar. Apenas 20 segundos.

El Team USA abrió el partido desde el círculo central y luego de un pase largo y un par de rebotes, Kellyn Acosta tocó hacia Sebastian Lletget, quien de primera lanzó un buscapié al centro del área. Ahí, el lateral derecho Shaq Moore conectó para cerrar la jugada y marcar el 1-0.

19-Year-Old Rookie Sensation Trinity Rodman Scores Her Best Goal Yet

Trinity Rodman scored the best goal of her rookie season on Sunday, but it wasn’t enough as the Washington Spirit fell 3-2 to Gotham FC at Segra Field. 

The Spirit looked doomed as early as the seventh-minute after Sam Staab was issued a straight red card for committing a foul as the last defender, but six minutes after her dismissal, Rodman shocked NJ/NY. 

The 19-year-old used her pace to get on the end of a ball out wide, but with support arriving in the middle, Rodman elected to drift inside before unleashing a right-footed effort that flew inside the far post. 

USMNT Uses Fastest Goal In Program History To Beat Canada, Win Group B

Gianluca Busio stood in the center circle at Children's Mercy Park on Sunday afternoon, awaiting the whistle to kick-off the USMNT’s Gold Cup group finale against Canada. 

When it sounded, the 19-year-old moved the ball to James Sands on the backline. The defender launched it forward at Sam Vines, who initiated a bit of head tennis that allowed the U.S. to suddenly overwhelm the left-hand side numerically.

Minnesota United Puts An End To Seattle’s Historic Unbeaten Start

Any MLS club in Seattle’s shoes gets blown away on Sunday against Minnesota United at Allianz Field. 

It’s an away day in mid-July with the temperature at 90 degrees. Minnesota is strong at home and hungry for a first-ever win over the Sounders at the ninth time of asking. Seattle, on the other hand, has nine players listed as “out” and has to call up two players from the Tacoma Defiance reserve team, including 15-year-old Alaskan Obed Vargas.   

This is a recipe for disaster in America’s top division.

Nashville’s Hany Mukhtar Scores Fastest Hat Trick In MLS History

Hany Mukhtar recorded the fastest hat trick in MLS history and Nashville SC extended their home unbeaten streak to 11 games with a 5-1 victory over the visiting Chicago Fire on Saturday night.

Mukhtar tallied all three goals in the first 16 minutes.

Mukhtar, who entered with a team-leading four goals, took advantage of breakdowns on Chicago's back end to open the scoring in the 10th minute, and he came through again three minutes later.

Bayern Munich Loses Friendly To Köln Courtesy Of Spectacular 180 No-Look Acrobatic Shot

FC Köln defeated Bayern Munich 3-2 in a friendly match on Saturday courtesy of an incredible goal from new Köln player, Mark Uth.

With the game tied 1-1 in the 27th minute, Köln found some space down the left side of the field and sent in a cross toward Uth. Despite the ball being behind him, the 29-year-old produced some German magic.
