Super Salah ignites Liverpool's season and hands Man City its first defeat
LIVERPOOL, England - A superb second-half goal from Mohamed Salah earned Liverpool a 1-0 victory over Manchester City on Sunday as the champions lost their unbeaten start to the Premier League season in a heated thriller that saw home coach Jürgen Klopp red-carded.
After an opening period that failed to live up to the game's blockbuster billing, the second half began at a ferocious pace, with Egypt international Salah denied by a superb save from City goalkeeper Ederson moments after the break.
Jürgen Damm copió el ¡SIUU! de Cristiano Ronaldo, pero no todo salió como lo soñó
En busca de su título número 14, el América parece imparable. Las Águilas volvieron a demoler al Puebla y se convirtieron en el equipo que más goles ha anotado en una llave de liguilla en la historia de la Liga MX para un global de ¡11-2!.
El conjunto azulcrema había vencido 6-1 en la ida y en la revancha, con equipo mixto, le pegó sin piedad a La Franja con un 5-1 en el Azteca. Cinco jugadores distintos convirtieron y bien pudieron ser seis, si no es por la acción del cuerpo arbitral que le arruinó un gol y un festejo a lo CR7 a Jürgen Damm.

Tillman arrived on loan at Rangers from Bayern Munich and had an incredible August — scoring in both Champions League qualifying and the Scottish Premiership — but a downturn in form saw him left on the bench for Rangers' last league match and Wednesday's 7-1 UCL defeat to Liverpool at the Ibrox.
Los arqueros no dejan de hacer goles en la Liga MX: Tiago Volpi es el tercero en el Apertura 2022
Si bien no es algo que veamos todos los días, de vez en cuando uno se topa con la historia de un arquero convirtiendo un gol. Pero algo que definitivamente no es común es que tres porteros distintos hayan anotado en un mismo torneo.
Para aquellos que dicen que la Liga MX es aburrida, en este Apertura 2022 son tres los guardametas que han logrado meterse en la tabla de goleo:
Will it work? Jürgen Klopp reveals his plan to stop Erling Haaland
Norway striker Erling Haaland is a "perfect fit" for Manchester City and Liverpool will have to find ways to limit his threat in attack in Sunday's Premier League game at Anfield, manager Jürgen Klopp said.
Haaland has made a sensational start at City, scoring 20 goals in 13 matches in all competitions for the league champions since joining them from Borussia Dortmund in the close season.
Fernando Hierro como director deportivo de las Chivas: ¿solución o experimento?
Mientras la definición del Apertura 2022 sigue su curso, Chivas está de vacaciones.
Ante los malos resultados del club, sin embargo, no todo es descanso. En el Rebaño hay mucho trabajo que hacer y empiezan a moverse piezas de cara al Clausura 2023. ¿Una de las prioridades? La búsqueda de un nuevo director deportivo.
