¡Guaaa! Los lunes no suelen ser días palpitantes o desbordantes de emoción, pero la Euro 2020 vino hoy a hacer una excepción. Al thriller entre España y Croacia, añadió al menú una sorpresa mayúscula: la eliminación de Francia, último campeón del mundo, ante Suiza.
I said that Spain and Croatia had the greatest game in the tournament so far. I retract that statement.
France and Switzerland battled late into the Bucharest night to tie 3-3 and Switzerland won on penalties 5-4. The massive upset has some critics looking at Kylian Mbappe.
En un partido antológico, maravilloso, impresionante y fantástico, España venció en la prórroga a Croacia y avanzó a los cuartos de final de la Euro 2020. Fue un 5-3 que será difícil de olvidar.
Los españoles llegaban al enfrentamiento tras una decepcionante fase de grupos, pero que alcanzó a salvar en su último duelo con un magnífico 5-0 ante Eslovaquia.
What. A. Game.
Spain and Croatia played the most entertaining game of Euro 2020 so far with a spectacular 5-3 victory in extra time for the 2010 World Cup champions.
The crazy tone for the game was set 20 minutes in when Spanish goalkeeper Unai Simón made one of the biggest mistakes in the tournament so far. The own goal was officially given to Pedri who can now claim the honor of the longest own goal in Euro history.
SEVILLE — Belgium captain Eden Hazard and midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will both undergo scans after being forced off the pitch during their 1-0 win over Portugal at the European Championship in Seville on Sunday.
De Bruyne suffered an ankle injury in what Martinez said was a "bad tackle" while Hazard had a muscle twinge. Both players indicated to the coach their desire to go off during the physically demanding game.
La racha de triunfos consecutivos de Brasil se detuvo hoy en la Copa América. Después de una derrota en un amistoso ante Argentina, el Scratch alcanzó a encadenar 10 victorias al hilo antes que Ecuador lograra robarle un punto, en el empate que cerró el Grupo B d y que clasificó a ambos a los cuartos de final del torneo.
Responsable de este hito fue Ángel Mena, jugador del Club León en la Liga MX.
Arsenal and Tottenham are not two teams known for their defensive solidity over the years. Yet three center backs who came to prominence at those two clubs just shut down Cristiano Ronaldo, Diogo Jota, Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, João Félix and Portugal.
Not so Spursy after all.
"Me siento mal. Perdimos por mi culpa". No hay doble lectura para Matthijs de Ligt. La sorpresiva eliminación de Países Bajos ante la República Checa, en los octavos de final de la Euro 2020, pasó principalmente por la tarjeta roja que recibió el defensor.
La expulsión ocurrió en el minuto 55, cuando el marcador aún estaba cero a cero y la Oranje expresaba cierto dominio.
De hecho, Países Bajos había tenido la oportunidad más clara, un par de minutos antes, en una entrada que Donyell Malen no supo definir ante Tomáš Vaclík
There were two shots on goal in the first half of the much-anticipated Belgium-Portugal Round of 16 Euro 2020 match on Sunday. The first was a scorching free kick from Cristiano Ronaldo parried wide by Thibaut Courtois; the second the Thorgan Hazard goal vs Portugal, which started when Courtois dribbled by Ronaldo.
With two heavyweights meeting early in the knockout stages, the teams spent most of the first half feeling each other out. There were few real chances on goal, but Ronaldo did trouble Courtois with this free kick that he actually hit on target.
England boasts a roster flooded with talent, but only two goals in the group stage has critics doubting that “it’s coming home.” Germany on the other hand is looking to rebound after dancing dangerously close to the Hungarian fire in the final match of the group stage.
