I’m Sorry, Ricardo Pepi Allegedly Had What Happen To Him In The Shower In Germany?!

Ridiculous Gregg Berhalter Volley Has Me Thinking He’s The USMNT’s Best Option For Starting Striker
The U.S. men’s national team has a striker problem. Players like Ricardo Pepi, Jordan Pefok, Gyasi Zardes and Daryl Dike have all attempted to fill the No. 9 vacancy on the team with mixed results.

They were awarded a last-minute penalty, but Kamara’s effort was saved by Equatorial Guinea’s 20-year-old goalkeeper Jesús Owono.
Matt Miazga’s Unreal Howler Will Be Forgotten Because Betis Scored 2 Worldies
Matt Miazga earned a second straight start on Tuesday since returning from Covid-19 for Alavés. It was a match he’ll want to forget, committing a shocking mistake to gift Real Betis a goal. The only bright side was Alavés conceded three other goals in a 4-0 defeat, including two beauties I must label Puskás worthy lest I be called out if one actually wins the honor in a year’s time.

Thoughts On Ricardo Pepi's First Bundesliga Start: Why Am I Like This?
Watching Ricardo Pepi make his first Augsburg start on Sunday against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga, I realized that either Pepi's performance was exactly the same as the debuts of Clint Dempsey with Fulham, Christian Pulisic with Borussia Dortmund and Tyler Adams with Leipzig or that I have a tendency to see exactly what I want to see when hugely talented Americans finally grace the field in Europe.

Lo Subió Y Lo Borró: El Tuit Con Que Carlos Salcedo Jugueteó Con Los Rumores Que Lo Ponen En La MLS
El futuro de Carlos Salcedo en Liga MX es más incierto que nunca. Los rumores de que el Titán dejará Tigres han venido rondando hace un par de meses y ahora hierven con versiones que lo colocan en el Toronto FC de la MLS.
Ocurra o no el traspaso, el mismo jugador hoy alimentó el ciclo con un tuit en el que aparece una foto de la radio de su auto, tocando la canción "Jugador Franquicia" de Myke Towers.
