After 17 Years Of Losing With Canada, Atiba Hutchinson Doesn’t Know What’s Happening

Whisper it — anything more than a whisper and it might vanish — but Canada is on course for the 2022 World Cup (after three games). 

The 1-1 draw with the United States in Nashville must’ve stirred something in the Canucks’ plums, because they came out like a side possessed on Wednesday night at BMO Field. Frankly, some of Canada’s play against El Salvador in the opening 30 minutes was disturbingly good, and 38-year-old captain Atiba Hutchinson was at the heart of it all.

How much must this all mean to the man who collected his 88th cap tonight? 

Con 40 Años, Chupete Suazo Regresó A La Pandilla Y Tuvo Su Debut Junto A Raya2

Humberto Suazo volvió a hacer temblar a la afición del Monterrey.

FIFA Opens Investigation Into Brazil-Argentina Fiasco

MANCHESTER, England - FIFA is investigating the abandonment of the Brazil-Argentina World Cup qualifier with its president Gianni Infantino labelling the events "crazy,” while Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to take disciplinary action against their Argentine players.

Brazilian health authorities intervened on Sunday after accusing four Argentine Premier League players of violating the country's COVID-19 quarantine rules.

Brasil - Argentina Suspendido Luego De Que Oficiales Intentaran Deportar A Cuatro Futbolistas En Pleno Partido

Prometía ser una linda tarde de fútbol con un Brasil vs Argentina por las Eliminatorias Sudamericanas en el menú, pero al final millones de personas terminaron viendo un papelón.

El siempre esperado partido debió ser suspendido cuando el reloj apenas marcaba cinco minutos y luego de que oficiales sanitarios de Sao Paulo ingresaran al campo para intentar deportar a cuatro jugadores de la Albiceleste.

Brazil-Argentina Suspended After Authorities Show Up Mid-Game To Deport Argentines

The highly anticipated, world-stopping World Cup qualifier between Brazil and Argentina in São Paulo ended in farce on Sunday afternoon. The buildup to the match had been dominated by COVID-19 guidelines, which ruled out the Premier League-based players for both countries.

Neymar Luce Abdomen "Tableta De Chocolate" Para Silenciar A Quienes Critican Su Peso

Horas antes del partido entre Brasil y Argentina por las Eliminatorias Sudamericanas rumbo a Catar 2022, Neymar mostró en sus redes sociales el six pack que adorna su abdomen. No para intimidar a la Albiceleste, sino que para acallar a quienes dicen que está un poco grueso o pasadito de kilos.

Si bien nunca es bueno hablar u opinar del cuerpo de otras personas, la prensa y los aficionados han estado criticando últimamente el estado de forma del jugador brasileño. 

El Plan De Los Seleccionados Argentinos Para Evadir El Bloqueo De La Premier League Y Jugar Ante Brasil

Brasil y Argentina vuelven a verse las caras después de la final de la Copa América 2021, que significó el primer título internacional de la Albiceleste desde 1993. Esta vez, la excusa son las Eliminatorias a Catar 2022 y el duelo ocurre en un contexto marcado por la negativa de la Premier League de facilitar futbolistas a distintas selecciones, escudándose en una lista roja del gobierno británico ante la Covid-19, la cual discrimina abiertamente a naciones latinas, africanas y asiáticas.

Forget The Octagonal, Welcome To The Concacaf Qualification Ladder

My Spanish is a little rusty, but here is a snippet from a conversation overheard between a few El Salvadorian fans shortly before the country's World Cup Qualifier against the USMNT on Thursday:

Guy No. 1: "OK, here's the plan: step one — get a ladder. Step two — carry the ladder into the stadium."
*Pause*
Guy No. 2: "What's step three?"
Guy No. 1: "What do you mean step three? That's the whole plan, we take the ladder and bring it into the game. That's it."

I Know What You Did This Summer: Tata Martino Needs Wins To Avoid Slash

After a summer spent playing the role of bridesmaid, Tata Martino’s Mexico begins World Cup qualifying by putting on a brave face and getting back out there, but September’s trifecta of matches each pose their own particular challenges for El Tri.

A couple big names miss out entirely through injury — Chucky Lozano, Héctor Herrera, Diego Lainez and Héctor Moreno — although Andrés Guardado returns after recovering from his own ailments. Meanwhile Covid continues to change, disrupt and alter plans by the minute, so don't be surprised if this preview is already entirely worthless.

Win At Home And Draw Away: First 3 WCQ Opponents Will Push USMNT To Edge

As the holder of the Nations League, Gold Cup and a new world ranking of 10th, the USMNT approaches World Cup qualifying at its highest level of confidence in five years — since John Brooks destroyed the house that Ecuador built at the Copa América.

But the formula for success in CONCACAF never changes: try to win at home, try to draw away. Get that done and you’re going to Qatar; experiment with the formula like Jürgen Klinsmann and you’ll kill Taylor Twellman.
