La Trivela De Joakim Maehle Es La Mejor Asistencia De Toda La Euro

Joakim Maehle ha estado fantástico durante la Euro 2020. El lateral izquierdo de Dinamarca lleva dos goles durante el torneo y hoy, en los cuartos de final ante República Checa, sacó una trivela que es imposible no considerar como la mejor asistencia de la competencia. Su aporte, de paso, sirvió para la victoria 2-1 de los daneses y para que la nación escandinava siga soñando con dar la sorpresa y repetir el título de la Euro 1992.

Mexico Is Seriously Trying To Get Its Women’s Team To Serve Punishment Incurred By Men’s Team

On June 18, FIFA finally handed down a meaningful sanction to the Mexican Football Federation (FMF), requiring Mexico to play its next two home games without fans because of continued use of a homophobic chant during matches. Now the FMF is trying to pull a fast one and make its women’s team serve the punishment. 

Classy.

Phantom Corner Helps Denmark Continue Feel-Good Run Through Euro 2020

Given everything that has happened to Denmark during Euro 2020, only Czech Republic supporters will complain about a crucial call that went against them early in their quarterfinal match. Denmark was bafflingly awarded a corner in the opening minutes, setting up Thomas Delaney’s fifth-minute goal that sent the Danes on the way to a 2-1 win on Saturday in Baku, Azerbaijan. 

Kevin De Bruyne Admits He Played Italy With Torn Ligament — ‘It Was A Miracle That I Played’

MUNICH, Germany — Belgium midfielder Kevin De Bruyne said he had played in Friday's Euro 2020 quarterfinal defeat to Italy with a tear in his ankle ligaments.

Manchester City's De Bruyne was a doubt for the game after picking up the injury in the last-16 win over Portugal but said he had been determined to play.

"For me personally it has been four or five weird weeks. But I especially want to thank the medical staff," he said.

Entre Pecho, Hombro Y Mentón: La Brutal Patada Voladora De Gabriel Jesus Sobre Eugenio Mena

Brasil logró una apretada victoria por 1-0 sobre Chile y avanzó a los cuartos de final de la Copa América 2021. La conversación global, sin embargo, no gira en torno a las dificultades que tuvo la canarinha para conseguir el triunfo, sino que a la monumental patada voladora que Gabriel Jesus le dio al defensor de La Roja, Eugenio Mena.

Con toda seguridad, la entrada más violenta en todo el torneo.

Brazil Survives Chile Despite Horrible Gabriel Jesus Red Card

Brazil advanced to the semifinals of Copa América 2021 with a 1-0 win despite playing most of the second half down a man after a horrible Gabriel Jesus red card vs Chile on Friday. 

Halftime substitute Lucas Paquetá scored 59 seconds after coming into the match and two minutes before Jesus was sent off for a flying kick on Eugenio Mena. 

First, the beautiful side of Brazil. Moments into the second half, the Seleção combined on a wonderful team goal finished off by Paquetá.

St. Vincent And The Grenadines Play Gold Cup Qualifier With 13 Players And No Goalie

St. Vincent and the Grenadines was forced to play a Gold Cup qualifier with 13 players — 11 starters and two subs — and no goalkeeper on Friday against Haiti. To no one’s surprise, Haiti won 6-1, moving to within one win of qualifying for this summer’s Concacaf Gold Cup.

St. Vincent and the Grenadines was the victim of reported visa issues ahead of the match in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It never helps when one side has 10 more bench players available than the other, especially when one team doesn’t have a goalie. 

Italy Has Retaken Its Place As The World’s Master Of The Dark Arts

Italy is back. The masters of the dark arts who won the 2006 World Cup with defense, grit and hand waving missed the 2018 World Cup, sparking a rethink of the national team. Now Roberto Mancini has Italy two wins away from another major title, with the Azzurri combining a ruthlessly efficient attacking style with Italy’s timeless defense and shithousery. 

España Le Gana A Suiza Y Pasa A Semifinales Con Un Arquero Que Sí Ataja Penales

España tuvo que ir a los penales para deshacerse de Suiza y avanzar a las semifinales de la Euro 2020. Y para suerte de los hispanos, en la portería estuvo Unai Simón y no su arquero habitual, David de Gea.

Ciro Immobile Makes Miraculous Recovery From ‘Injury’ After Nicolò Barella Goal

Italy keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was busier than he had been in four prior matches in the first half of his team’s Euro 2020 quarterfinal, but it was a Nicolò Barella goal vs Belgium that gave Italy the lead in the first half. The Barella goal was so great it cured Ciro Immobile’s leg, the striker miraculously getting up unharmed after having been seemingly shot in the leg moments earlier.
