Joya Uruguaya De 16 Años Marca Su Primer Hat-Trick Y Los Rivales No Le Querían Regalar El Balón

La costumbre hoy es que cada jugador que marca un triplete se va a su casa con uno de los balones con que se jugó el partido. Y eso era lo que quería hacer Nicolás Siri, jugador del Danubio de la primera división de Uruguay, al marcar el primer hat-trick de su carrera con apenas 16 años y 11 meses (Sí, leíste bien: 16 años y 11 meses) en el 1-5 sobre Boston River. ¿El problema? Boston River, dueño de las pelotas, no quería cumplir con la gentil tradición.  

Just Two Months Into His Championship Tenure, Daryl Dike Is Poised To Set League Records

Americans have a long, but not necessarily impressive, history of playing soccer in Europe.

John Harkes was the first American to play in the English Premier League when he debuted for Sheffield Wednesday in 1991. Since then, many Americans have tested their mettle in England, yet very few have delivered truly impressive seasons. 

Tim Howard was one of the better goalkeepers in the Premier League for a decade, Brad Friedel's Premier League run extended even longer, while Clint Dempsey and Brian McBride both had their share of impressive seasons.

8 Footballers Who Made A Career Out Of Failing Upwards

Sometimes I wish that, through some glaring administrative error, I had been accidentally registered for the Ajax youth academy, even if it was just for one day. Then, in semi-good conscience, I could exploit that fact to have my own Wikipedia page, Transfermarkt profile and agent, allowing me to bounce around the world on one-year contracts — obviously being found out as total trash time after time — living my best life.

Josh Sargent, Brenden Aaronson, Tyler Boyd And Other Americans Find The Net On Sunday

When Fulhamerica beats Liverpool at Anfield, you know that foreshadows a historic day for USMNT players in Europe. While Antonee Robinson got off the bench in that one (although Tim Ream didn’t), Sunday saw goals from a remarkable number of U.S. footballers abroad, including Josh Sargent, Brenden Aaronson, Tyler Boyd and Konrad de la Fuente.

We’ll start with Sarg in the Bundesliga. The 21-year-old striker scored Werder Bremen’s lone goal in a 1-1 draw with FC Köln. Sargent’s header was his second goal in as many games, giving him four in 22 appearances this season.

Reinier, 18 at the time, arrived in Germany with high hopes. 

The Brazilian attacker signed for Borussia Dortmund on a two-year loan deal from Real Madrid, having joined the Spanish giants from Flamengo in January 2020 on a $36 million deal.
