Imagine Lionel Messi, getting ready to play with his national team after another grueling yet fruitful season. He’s just come off a legacy-defining World Cup and a Ligue 1 title before shocking the world as he announced his intentions to leave Paris Saint-Germain to join Major League Soccer.
Manchester City are UEFA Champions League winners for the first time in club history after defeating Inter Milan 1-0 on Saturday in the final in Istanbul, Turkey. The victory sees City complete the treble of winning the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup all in the same season.
Critics and pundits heavily favored City to win, however it was anything but easy for the EPL giants. Pep Guardiola’s City side came out flat while Inter were fantastic defensively to frustrate and push City to their limits.
Brad Guzan made nine saves to secure a road point for Atlanta United in a 0-0 draw with Los Angeles FC on Wednesday.
The draw extended unbeaten streaks for both teams. Atlanta is 1-0-4 in its past five MLS games, while Los Angeles is 2-0-2 in its past four.

Con goles de Raúl Jiménez y Roberto de la Rosa, la Selección Mexicana venció a Guatemala en un amistoso jugado en el Estadio El Kraken de Mazatlán.
El partido, la verdad, es que no tuvo nada del otro mundo. Guatemala, dirigida por el Flaco Tena, fue un equipo ordenadito y que hizo pasar un par de sustos al Tri, pero sin TNT suficiente como para amagar a un México que hizo lo que tenía que hacer sin mayores aspavientos.
Bueno, excepto por la dosis de fútbol champagne que nos regaló el central Néstor Araujo.
Jarrod Bowen scored in the 90th minute as West Ham United secured a last-gasp 2-1 victory over Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final on Wednesday to clinch a first major European trophy in over half a century.
The match at Prague's Eden Arena looked like it was heading to extra time when Lucas Paqueta slipped a ball through to Bowen who outpaced the defenders and fired home past a sprawling Fiorentina keeper.
FC Cincinnati winger Álvaro Barreal is one of the few who prefers to crush our “cupset” dreams. Fortunately for us, he lessened the blow with a goal so technically brilliant, we’re just glad we got to see it.
We can't believe it either.
Angel City forward Sydney Leroux was in tears Monday night after an emotional return to the field. Leroux had been sidelined for the past 11 months and scored in her first game back during Angel City’s 2-1 defeat to the Chicago Red Stars.

América bajó la segunda estrella de su historia en la Liga MX Femenil, luego de vencer al Pachuca de Charlyn Corral y Jenni Hermoso por 2-1 en el Estadio Azteca (4-2 en el marcador global).

Una noche HISTÓRICA
Erling Haaland, say hello to Rodolfo Cota. Kevin De Bruyne, meet Ángel Mena. Pep Guardiola, this is Joel Campbell — he's a genius just like you.
