LONDON - Liverpool have the chance to cut Manchester City's Premier League lead, albeit briefly, to six points on Saturday as they continue their distant pursuit of the champions.
Despite his team winning their last four games, Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp says Manchester City will not be peering anxiously in their rearview mirror.
Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte said the club's current focus was on signing younger players who still needed to gain experience.
"If you want to grow faster, you want to try to be more competitive faster, you also need players with a lot of experience because then they increase the experience in your team," he told Italian Sky Sport in an interview.
Conte, who helped Serie A's Inter Milan to win the title last year and break Juventus's nine-year win streak, said Spurs came out of the January transfer window numerically weakened.
Thinking back over the first six months of the Premier League season, it has seemed like an unusually poor year for goalkeepers. This has been evident from the opening weekend, when a plethora of minor goalkeeping errors led to a forgettable start to the season.
David de Gea has been sensational, but aside from the Man United keeper, who has stood out between the posts this year?
MANCHESTER — Cristiano Ronaldo broke his goal drought to score Manchester United's opener in a 2-0 victory vs. Brighton & Hove Albion that lifted them into the Premier League's top four on Tuesday.
Ronaldo, without a goal since December and dropped to the bench by interim manager Ralf Rangnick in some recent matches, struck five minutes after halftime with a superb finish after being played in by Scott McTominay.
My WORD what a strike from Ronaldo!
Pudo ser Canadá, pudo ser Inglaterra, pero a fin de cuentas el destino de Tatiana y Silvana Flores parece estar ligado a la Selección Mexicana.
Al igual que su hermano Marcelo, el compromiso de las jugadoras con el Tri es más fuerte que nunca y prueba de ello es que ambas se entrenan con las selecciones juveniles de México, las cuales tendrán bastante acción en los próximos meses.
La misma federación compartió una imagen de ambas jugadoras en modo práctica y que disparó el orgullo de Rubén, el padre del clan Flores. "Mi corazón se derrite aquí", escribió en Twitter.
LONDON - Tottenham Hotspur sank to a third successive Premier League defeat as first-half goals by Raúl Jiménez and Leander Dendoncker gave Wolverhampton Wanderers a 2-0 away win to lift them into seventh place on Sunday.
After losing 3-2 at home to Southampton in midweek, Tottenham desperately needed a response to boost their top-four ambitions, but defensive errors cost them dear.
Wolverhampton viajó a Londres y le arruinó la tarde a los aficionados del Tottenham, logrando una vital victoria para sus sueños europeos. Uno de los goles del triunfo vino en los pies de Raúl Jiménez, quien de este modo silenció las críticas que comenzaban a aparecer ante su falta de efectividad en la temporada 2021-22.
At this point it's one of the most outrageous traditions in all of sports — Manchester City hosts Manchester United in Women's Super League play and City midfielder Caroline Weir scores a contender for the Puskás Award.
It all began in 2019 when, in the inaugural WSL Manchester derby, Weir lashed a 25-yard rocket into the far corner to the delight of 31,213 at the Etihad.
If you played soccer in an American high school, then you are well familiarized with the slander that comes to soccer players. Terms like “field fairies” are constantly hurled at us soccer players for society’s perception that we can’t be tough. This Bruno Fernandes punch against Southampton hasn’t helped the cause at all.
Chelsea became champions of the world on Saturday after defeating Brazilian side Palmeiras 2-1 in a tight contest that saw extra time and two VAR reviews for penalty kicks. Christian Pulisic played for 90 minutes in a historic game for an American player.
Pulisic made history in the 31st minute when he was substituted on for an injured Mason Mount. He is the first American to ever play in the FIFA Club World Cup.
