Al Tata Martino le dieron cuerda y destrozó el fútbol mexicano

El recuerdo de Gerardo Martino al mando de la Selección Mexicana es amargo. Su fracaso en el Mundial de Catar es una herida que todavía no cierra y que el mismo Tata se encarga de echarle sal.

A casi tres meses de su salida del Tri, el DT argentino dio una entrevista al periodista Tomy Arguelles y en ella básicamente despedazó la realidad del fútbol mexicano, criticando la madurez y ambición de sus futbolistas, así como la burbuja de precios que crean los dueños. De paso le tiró flores a la MLS, donde seguramente busca un nuevo trabajo.

Las dos cosas que debe cambiar el América del Tano Ortiz ante Tigres

América tuvo una exhibición paupérrima en su partido de la Jornada 10 frente a los Tuzos del Pachuca. Un par de decisiones arbitrales polémicas, la falta de contundencia y los errores infantiles de Oscar Jiménez, terminaron con el invicto en casa que manejaban las Águilas desde hace más de un año.

De paso, quedó claro que los azulcrema son clientes frecuentes de los Tuzos.

Newly appointed China head coach Aleksandar Janković is aiming to guide the Asian country to qualification for the 2026 World Cup, the Serbian said, adding that the team has room for improvement.

Mourinho red carded as Roma hand Cremonese their FIRST win of the Serie A season

It took all of 24 matches but Cremonese finally won a Serie A game on Tuesday, and the most remarkable thing is that they recorded it over Roma after also shocking José Mourinho's team in the Coppa Italia quarterfinals at the beginning of the month.

No club in Europe's big five leagues had remained winless this long, but Cremonese — based in the Lombardy region of northern Italy — actually moved into 19th-place with all three points (12 overall) while dropping hapless Sampdoria (11 points) to dead last.

Atravesamos el ombligo del torneo. La Jornada 9 del Clausura 2023 es historia y como siempre dejó varias cosas que hablar.

En cuanto a la tabla hay dos cosas que no cambiaron: Monterrey sigue como líder, mientras que Mazatlán continúa dando pena en el fondo del sótano.

A los Cañoneros les prometieron dinero extra si le ganaban a Pumas, pero ni así fueron capaces de terminar una racha sin triunfos que viene desde agosto de 2022.
