Javier Hernández se quedó con los aplausos en el duelo ante su amigo y compadre Carlos Vela, en el clásico entre LA Galaxy y LAFC. Chicharito incluso anotó uno de los goles en la victoria 2-1 de su equipo en El Trafico, nombre por el que se conoce el derbi angelino.
The clash between the two biggest Mexican stars in MLS is finally happening. Javier Hernández and Carlos Vela are facing each other on Saturday, April 9 (7:30 p.m. ET), in El Trafico, the derby between LA Galaxy and LAFC.
The league has been expecting the duel for almost two years, but between the Covid-19 pandemic and injuries affecting both players at different times, we still haven't been able to watch them in action in the same game.
Mexican wonderkid Marcelo Flores didn't play a single minute in Arsenal's 3-0 Monday debacle against Crystal Palace, but he still found a way to look on the bright side of his first-ever call-up to the Gunners' first squad.
"Unfortunate result but loved the environment and experience, COYG," he wrote on his Instagram, 24 hours after the defeat.
Se acabó el sufrimiento. México hizo la tarea y luego de vencer 2-0 a El Salvador en el Estadio Azteca consiguió su soñado boleto a Catar 2022.
Sin volverse locos ni perder la cabeza, hay que reconocer que el Tri jugó mucho mejor de lo que venía haciéndolo, con más chispa en la generación de juego y mejor suerte frente al arco rival. Ayudó la actitud temerosa de La Selecta, pero también se debe destacar la fantástica actuación de Uriel Antuna.
Before Portugal’s World Cup qualifying playoff game vs. North Macedonia Cristiano Ronaldo said, “There is no World Cup without Portugal.” Have no fear soccer fans, there will be a World Cup this year courtesy of Portugal defeating North Macedonia 2-0 on Tuesday to secure a spot in the 2022 World Cup.
Chelsea star and France international N’Golo Kanté turned 31 years old on Tuesday while on duty with his national team. France — already qualified for the World Cup — is playing some friendly matches during the international window. Before France’s game vs. South Africa on Tuesday there was a Kanté birthday cake surprise.
Tardó siete meses, pero al final llegó: Santi Muñoz convirtió su primer gol vistiendo el jersey del Newcastle Sub 23, en la victoria 4-3 sobre el West Bromwich Albion.
El delantero mexicano aterrizó en las Urracas con bastantes expectativas mediáticas, debido a la similitud de su nombre con la del ficticio Santi Muniz de la película "Goal!", quien en busca de la gloria mundial empieza su carrera europea, justamente, en el Newcastle.
Christian Eriksen said he made his return to international football in the "perfect way" by scoring two minutes after coming on for Denmark on Saturday following a near-fatal heart attack last year.
Denmark lost 4-2 to the Netherlands in the international friendly, with Eriksen producing a stunning finish into the top corner in the 47th minute after he came on as a half-time substitute.
North Macedonia pulled off one the biggest upsets in sporting history on Thursday when the minnows took on European champions Italy in a World Cup playoff and somehow pulled off a 1-0 victory in Palermo.
This game could've been played 100 times and Italy wins 99 times.
But I watched this game from start to finish and I must say the North Macedonia win was absolutely deserved. I don’t know if I've ever seen a more valiant display of defending in my life. Italy recorded 32 shots but only five ended up on target.
Con 37 años, Cristiano Ronaldo sigue escribiendo historia. El fenomenal futbolista portugués hoy anotó un hat trick en la victoria 3-2 del Manchester United sobre Tottenham y de paso se convirtió en el máximo goleador en la historia del fútbol.
Dicho de otro modo, CR7 acaba de romper el récord de los récords.
Quizás la temporada 2021-22 no sea la mejor de carrera, quizás no esté en su mejor momento físico, pero la leyenda de Cristiano sigue tatuándose en los anales del fútbol.
