The prognosis for Alexandre Lacazette was bleak. After suffering 10 wasp stings in a Dutch forest ahead of Lyon's friendly against Feyenoord on Sunday, the former Arsenal striker was sure to miss the match as he iced, applied hydrocortisone cream and took some Tylenol.
New videos have emerged confirming what we already knew to be true. Weston McKennie is him. Himothy, Himmy Neutron, to himfinity and beyond; Weston is simply that guy.

La cuenta oficial del Napoli presumió el retorno de sus jugadores para el inicio de la pretemporada 2022-23. Y entre ellos estaba el mexicano Hirving Lozano, a quien compararon con un saijayín de Dragon Ball Z.
Boca Juniors volvió a quedar fuera de la Copa Libertadores, el máximo escenario del fútbol sudamericano. Esta vez, vía penales.
Como suele pasar, mientras la gran mayoría de los países del hemisferio norte preparan sus respectivo torneos y empiezan la pretemporada, la acción en Sudamérica no se detiene. Esta semana se están definiendo las series de octavos de final del torneo de clubes a nivel continental más antiguo del mundo y este martes fuimos testigos de tres de los ocho partidos de la ronda:
Back in 2019, Cruzeiro — a two-time winner of the Libertadores and four-time Brasileirão champion — suffered relegation to Série B for the first time in the club's 98-year existence.
The animosity between Argentina and Brazil is reaching a fever pitch at the perfect moment: right before the 2022 World Cup. Their only possible clash course in Qatar would see the bitter rivals meet in the semifinals, but that world-stopping event is plausible because La Albiceleste and the Seleção are as good as they've been in a long time.
The two have split the past two Copa Américas, playing out a bad-blooded semifinal in 2019 that Brazil won en route to the title while Argentina had its vengeance in the 2021 final at the Maracanã.
If there's one image that perfectly captures Liverpool's exhilarating 2021-22 campaign and its bitterly disappointing end, it's Sunday's photo of Sadio Mané caught in a thousand-yard stare while "celebrating" the club's FA Cup and EFL Cup double.
Australian prime minister Scott Morrison — days removed from labelling himself "a bit of a bulldozer when it comes to issues" — was taking no prisoners on the campaign trail in Tasmania on Wednesday afternoon.
What if the MetroStars still existed with their name and logo? What if the New York Red Bulls were as much a figment of our imagination as the U.S. winning a men’s World Cup? Such was the premise many members of The18 staff took and ran with, spending their most productive hours of the day creating New York/New Jersey MetroStars memes.
No es un día fácil para ser aficionado de Pumas. Los de la UNAM perdieron de manera estrepitosa la final de la Liga de Campeones de la Concacaf ante el Seattle Sounders (3-0) y con ello dejaron morir una racha de 16 años de dominio mexicano en la competencia.
Obviamente, el universo de la Liga MX no ha visto con buenos ojos la afrenta sufrida por los universitarios y han descargado su sentir de la forma en que se hace estos días: la burla y el meme.
