Juventus’ already dreadful September has somehow managed to get even worse. A miserable run of form saw the club winless with two draws and two losses and thousands of fans calling for “Allegri Out” on social media going into Sunday’s match against newly promoted AC Monza. What followed was a performance that would earn almost any top club’s manager the sack, as Monza handily beat Juventus 1-0 and thoroughly deserved to do so.
Seven match weeks into the Bundesliga season, Union Berlin is top of the table — two points clear of Borussia Dortmund and five of Bayern Munich — with a 26-year-old American leading the charge.
On Sunday, he scored again — his third (to go with two assists) in six appearances — in Union's 2-0 victory over Wolfsburg. This one was a perfectly timed near post run to get in front of his marker and glance a header inside the opposite post.
This, my friends, is good forward play.
Wolverhampton anunció que Raúl Jiménez no estará disponible este fin de semana para el duelo del club ante Manchester City. ¿La razón? Está lesionado.
De acuerdo al reporte médico del club inglés, la ausencia de RJ9 se debe a algo relacionado con "la ingle y los aductores". Y si bien no se expande mucho más, se asegura que el jugador está en proceso rehabilitación y que "tomará algunas semanas".
Semana a semana, Santi Giménez demuestra que es el mejor delantero mexicano del momento y que incluso merece ser el 9 titular del Tri en el Mundial de Catar 2022.
A algunos les sonará a exageración, pero la verdad es que lo de Bebote en el Feyenoord es simplemente sensacional. Sin ser estelar en el equipo de Arne Slot, Giménez aprovecha los minutos que tiene para hacerse presente en el marcador.
Y este jueves, en la Europa League, no fue la excepción.
“Who is Brandon Vazquez?” is a question that United States men’s national team fans could be asking themselves. If you’re a fan of the USMNT who doesn’t pay too much attention to Major League Soccer, then you might not know about the 23-year-old FC Cincinnati forward.
The year is 1974. It's mid-February, and after months of intense wear, the pitch at Preston North End's Deepdale Stadium is nothing more than a mud pit. The players slog through ankle-deep sludge as they labor in vain to hoof the water-logged leather sphere up the pitch.
The aim is not to score, rather it's to prevent the opponent from finding the back of the net. It's a cynical way of thinking that has long plagued the English game, thus preventing its tactical advancement.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a match with as much edge-of-your-seat action as Toronto FC and CF Montréal provided in just the first half Sunday. Two early goals in two minutes from Toronto set the tone for the match before Montréal followed with two goals of its own in two minutes. A Kai Kamara goal just before halftime completed the comeback, and Alistair Johnston sealed the 4-3 win before the hour mark.
We all saw it: Chicharito Hernández's last effort from the penalty spot was genuinely embarrassing. He had the chance to secure three points for the LA Galaxy in a very tight race for the playoffs Sunday, but instead, he decided to perform a poor, sad Panenka against SKC seconds before the final whistle.
Wolverhampton planea traerle más competencia a Raúl Jiménez. O al menos eso es lo que se desprende de los rumores que ponen al legendario delantero brasileño-español, Diego Costa, en la órbita del equipo inglés.
No es misterio que Jiménez ha estado un poco peleado con el gol y eso ha afectado duramente los números ofensivos de los Wolves. Un dato de la causa es que el club es el menos goleador en la Premier League 2022-23 con apenas tres conquistas en seis encuentros.
