El próximo sábado 23 de octubre, en Tepatitlán, Jalisco, la selección femenil de México continuará su preparación para las clasificatorias rumbo a Australia / Nueva Zelandia 2023, enfrentándose a su similar de Argentina. La entrenadora del Tri, Mónica Vergara dio hoy la nómina de jugadoras para el amistoso con una notable ausencia: Alicia Cervantes.
La delantera de Chivas vive hoy un gran momento. Es líder de goleo de la Liga MX con 13 conquistas y su nombre comienza a hacer ruido en los rumores de transferencia, con España y Estados Unidos como posibles destinos.
Everyone is well-versed in Alphonso Davies’ game-changing pace and ability to dice any defender on the planet off the dribble, but it’s his increasing effectiveness in the final third that makes the 20-year-old standout as one of football’s brightest talents.
That’s not to say it’s a new development in his game. At the tender age of 17 Davies was already one of Major League Soccer’s most devastating players in attack, scoring eight goals and providing 10 assists in 31 games to help facilitate his $11 million move to Bayern. (He’s now valued at $155 million.)
La selección mexicana resistió firme a un ambiente lleno de hostilidades en El Salvador y sacó un valioso triunfo en el camino a Catar 2022. No importaron las amenazas al estilo "El Juego del Calamar", tampoco la "serenata" en su hotel de concentración ni los cánticos y abucheos que recibió en el Estadio Cuscatlán. Al final el Tri venció a La Selecta 0-2, en un duelo en el que además Raúl Jiménez volvió a anotar y demostrar que es un maestro tirando penales.
The USMNT got its World Cup qualifying campaign back on the right track, baby, yeah, by defeating Costa Rica 2-1 in Columbus, Ohio, on Wednesday night. Block every voice that tells you this isn’t something worth celebrating because after going down 1-0 to a strange goal early, the U.S. produced the sort of performance that makes this grind of qualifying more than worth your time.
Para México hay pocos lugares más hostiles que el Estadio Cuscatlán. Cada visita a El Salvador es básicamente un desfile de odio hacia el Tri. Y esta semana, en la previa de un nuevo duelo eliminatorio, no hay lugar para excepciones.
After the USMNT escaped El Salvador with a 0-0 draw to begin World Cup qualifying, various Twitter accounts with profile pictures of teenaged USMNT stars chalked it off as unacceptable.
Landon Donovan labelled that thinking as "crazy."
FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings looking into the clashes at Wembley Stadium between police and Hungarian supporters at Tuesday's game against England, saying it has "zero tolerance against such abhorrent behaviour."
World soccer's governing body added on Wednesday that it has also started investigating incidents during the game between Albania and Poland in Tirana, where bottles were thrown on the pitch after Poland scored.
Carli Lloyd’s playing career is coming to an end. But first, two final farewell matches later this month against South Korea. On Wednesday, coach Vlatko Andonovski named his USWNT roster for the upcoming friendlies, which are little more than a chance to send Lloyd off in style.
Lloyd announced in August she will retire after the 2021 NWSL season, calling an end to an historic career.
Gianni Infantino, the ninth President of FIFA, has found himself increasingly in the news of late, which we’ve come to learn is never, ever a good sign when it comes to FIFA presidents. The 51-year-old’s latest fixation is a biennial World Cup that’s been panned by everyone with a genuine love for the game, so it’s only a matter of time before the plan becomes reality.
