Estados Unidos Se Despide De Tokio Con Un Gol Olímpico De Rapinoe Y Un Amargo Bronce

El plan de Estados Unidos en Tokio era ganar el oro y así convertirse en la primera selección femenina en ser campeona del mundo (Francia 2019) y abrazar la gloria olímpica en un mismo ciclo. Sin embargo, al final del camino, el USWNT debió conformarse con el bronce.

Las razones del downgrade son varias: el envejecimiento del equipo, la falta de renovación, las excesivas rotaciones del entrenador Vlatko Andonovski y finalmente el hecho de que el equipo nunca hizo suficiente clic como para responder a las expectativas.

This Bicycle Kick Assist From Norwich City’s Todd Cantwell Is Art

With one swift kick and a mighty finish, Norwich City has us ready for the Premier League to kick off already. Even though fans have had plenty of international soccer to enjoy recently, the August 13 start date of the EPL could not come any sooner. 

This incredible Todd Cantwell assist was set up after the midfielder received a pass shortly after making his way into the 18 (eyy). With a defender pressing him from behind, in two quick taps and a moment of sheer brilliance, he launched the ball over his body with a bicycle kick and across the goal for a near-perfect one-timer. 

Uno De Tijera Incluido: Katy Killer Marcó Un Hat Trick En La Goleada 8-1 De Tigres Sobre Necaxa

Katty Martínez no lo pasó muy bien en el último torneo. Las lesiones se ensañaron con ella y redujeron su protagonismo en el bicampeonato de Tigres Femenil. Sin embargo, en este “Grita México Apertura 2021”, el viento poco a poco comienza a soplar en su favor. Prueba manifiesta de esto es el hat trick que Katty Killer convirtió en el aniquilador 8-1 con que las Amazonas derrotaron a las Centellas del Necaxa.

Marco Asensio’s Beautiful Curler Sets Up Dream Gold Medal Match

Japan was five minutes and penalty kicks away from reaching the gold medal match against Brazil as the host nation of the 2020 Olympics. Then Marco Asensio did Marco Asensio things.

“Miedo A Nadie, Solo A Mi Mamá”: México Goleó A Su Cuco Olímpico Y Ahora Va Por Brasil

La posibilidad de que el fútbol mexicano sume una nueva medalla olímpica a sus vitrinas está cada vez más cerca. El Tri venció a Corea del Sur por 6-3 y avanzó a la semifinales de Tokio 2020.

Ahí, Brasil es quien espera.

El triunfo sobre la selección asiática no fue menor. En cinco duelos anteriores en la cita de los anillos, México nunca le había ganado. El récord goleador tampoco era mejor: la última vez que México le había anotado fue en 1948. ¡Mil-no-ve-cien-tos-cua-ren-ta-y-o-cho!

Georgian Starboy Kvaratskhelia Scores A Worldie

Rubin Kazan has one of the gems of the Russian Premier League on its hands in Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

The Tbilisi, Georgia, native moved to Kazan in 2019 after a loan spell with Lokomotiv Moscow. Two years on, those in decision-making positions at the capital club may be kicking themselves for not making that loan permanent. Kvaratskhelia has scored eight goals and assisted 13 in 53 appearances for Rubin Kazan and, still just 20 years old, has found himself linked with several clubs across Europe, most recently AC Milan. 

Josef Martinez Shows Atlanta Fans What They've Been Missing

The 2021-22 MLS season has been a trying one thus far for Atlanta United and its supporters. 

Atlanta, which took the league by storm in its first two seasons, smashing attendances records and earning a championship, has a record of 2-8-6 this year. Head coach Gabriel Heinze, hired in December, was let go earlier this month amidst an eight-game winless streak. The Argentine coach did not help his cause much by freezing out Atlanta's and, possibly, MLS's best player. 

Only Thing Better Than This Bicycle Kick Goal Was The Emotional Tribute Immediately After

That was one helluva tribute for Zizinho. 

Rayan Raveloson hit a spectacular overhead kick to open the scoring in the LA Galaxy’s 4-1 win over Portland on Friday, but even better than his goal was the team’s celebration of it. Raveloson and his teammates immediately ran to the bench to grab a jersey of a player who had never played a game for the club.

Mexico Avenges 2016 Defeat By Scoring Goal After Spectacular Goal To Crush South Korea 6-3

Mexico is one win away from its second Olympic medal in soccer after thrashing South Korea 6-3 on Saturday in Yokohama. A tight game burst into a rout after a stunning Luís Romo volley, and Sebastián Córdova put the game out of reach with a long-range golazo.

Mexico won gold in 2012 but failed to reach the knockout rounds in Brazil five years ago, heading home after a 1-0 defeat to South Korea in the final group-stage match. El Tri wasn’t about to bow out with another loss to South Korea. 

Porto’s Gravity-Defying Mehdi Taremi Wins UEFA Goal Of The Season Award

Porto striker Mehdi Taremi clinched UEFA’s 2020-21 Goal of the Season award on Thursday for his outstanding bicycle kick against Chelsea in the Champions League.

The Iranian guided an unstoppable injury time effort into the top corner from 12 yards to clinch a 1-0 quarterfinal second leg win away to the eventual winners, but it was not enough to prevent a 2-1 aggregate defeat.
