Halftime band during Argentina match just keeps playing despite start of second 45

Argentina palooza continued Tuesday night as the world champions put on an exhibition against CONCACAF minnows Curaçao at the Madre de Ciudades in Santiago del Estero. Captain Lionel Messi had a hat trick in the first 37 minutes, bringing his international tally to 102, as La Albiceleste put seven past the Columbus Crew's Eloy Room.

It was an honor and a privilege. 

¿Dónde la mandaste, Bebote? El penal que falló Santi Giménez en la victoria de México sobre Surinam

Diego Cocca debutó con sonrisas al mando de la Selección Mexicana. El Tri sorteó con éxito su excursión a Surinam por la Liga de Naciones de la Concacaf e inició su regreso a casa con un saludable triunfo por 2-0 en las maletas.

Sin embargo, y no por ser aguafiestas, las formas dejaron una que otra duda. México sufrió con varios problemas de funcionamiento colectivo y también con una serie de errores individuales, coronados por un penal desperdiciado, ni más ni menos, por el delantero del momento, Santiago Giménez.

Arquero de Raya2 convierte un simple pase atrás en un vergonzoso y ridículo autogol

A Fernando Hernández, arquero de Raya2 en la Liga de Expansión, seguro no le fue fácil pegar los ojos la noche de este miércoles. Apenas iniciado el partido ante Correcaminos por la J12 del Clausura 2023, el cuidavallas le sacó los ojos a un rutinario pase atrás de su compañero Sergio Villarreal y lo convirtió en un vergonzoso autogol que machacará su cabeza por al menos un par de semanas. 

Mínimo.

Oh no, here comes the neighbor on his scooter with a noise complaint

Just when you think you've seen it all on the football pitch, your neighbor comes puttering along on his scooter, bringing the match to a standstill, to complain about all the matchday malarkey that's frightening his horses. 

Now you've really seen it all.

Man Utd book FA Cup semifinal spot after all hell breaks loose at Old Trafford

MANCHESTER, England - Bruno Fernandes scored twice to put Manchester United into the FA Cup semifinals with a drama-filled 3-1 win over Fulham who had two players and manager Marco Silva sent off on Sunday.

Fulham appeared to be heading for their first FA Cup semifinal appearance since 2002 after Aleksandar Mitrović opened the scoring in the 50th minute.

Ronaldo receives hilarious yellow card during rough night

Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr beat Abha 3-1 in the King's Cup on Tuesday but it was a disappointing night for the Portuguese forward, who failed to score, received a yellow card and was substituted for the first time since his move to Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo failed to score for the third consecutive game and is yet to open his account at Al-Nassr stadium.

Both coaches rage at conditions of snow game between Minnesota and NY Red Bulls

For the third time in seven seasons, Minnesota United's home opener was played in snow. It wasn't nearly as cold as the infamous World Cup qualifier between the USMNT and Honduras at Allianz Field in February of last year, but Saturday's 30-degree weather and continuous flurries made for a sticky layer of snow outside of the well-maintained 18-yard boxes.

Leeds USA draw Brighton, but we need to talk about Brenden Aaronson’s poor form

Leeds United sit in the relegation zone after drawing Brighton 2-2 at Elland Road on Saturday. Tyler Adams and Brenden Aaronson started for Leeds while Weston McKennie came on as a second half substitute.

We’ll get to showing the highlights here in a bit, but first we need to discuss yet another lackluster performance from Aaronson. The American forward transferred to Leeds from Red Bull Salzburg before the 2022-23 season and he’s arguably been a bust.

Leeds reportedly paid $30 million for him and in return he has produced one goal and two assists in 29 appearances.

Cristiano Ronaldo throws a temper tantrum after fans keep chanting “Messi” at him

Cristiano Ronaldo was less than pleased after Al Nassr lost 1-0 to Al-Ittihad on Thursday. The result saw Al-Ittihad leapfrog Al Nassr to go top of the Saudi Pro League table and left Ronaldo in a sour mood.

The home crowd for Al-Ittihad found a way to get under Ronaldo’s skin as they repeatedly chanted “Messi” at him. The chant worked to great effect as the Portuguese star was kept off the score sheet and visibly annoyed.

At one point Ronaldo could be seen making hand gestures to the Al-Ittihad fans expressing his displeasure with their chants.

FIFPRO: Who thought a November-December World Cup was a good idea?

MANCHESTER, England - Global soccer players union FIFPRO said that the World Cup should never again be squeezed into a November-December window, and that Raphaël Varane's international retirement should ring alarm bells about the sport's smothering schedule.

FIFPRO released their World Cup 2022 Post-Tournament Review and Player Survey on Thursday, and said the results confirmed their fears around players' mental and physical fatigue and injury risk.
