A wonderful design inspired by pre-Spanish elements takes the leading role in the new Mexico away jersey launched Monday by adidas.
The kit complements handsomely the green home uniform revealed in July and completes the Mexican national team collection for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
If someone had asked me close to this time last year which USMNT strikers would go to Qatar I would have had Ricadro Pepi top of mind. Fast forward to present day and the job for the starting striker at the World Cup with the USMNT is there for the taking with several bidders.
Josh Sargent is in the best form of his career, Jordan Pefok has been a menace in front of goal for Union Berlin and Haji Wright is racking up the goals in Turkey. All three USMNT strikers had goal contributions this weekend.
Gerardo Martino tiene un pacto secreto o una obsesión enfermiza con Uriel Antuna, Jesús Gallardo y Rodolfo Pizarro. O al menos eso es lo que uno deduce luego de ver las reacciones de la gente a la convocatoria de la selección mexicana para su próximo partido amistoso vs. Paraguay.
Si bien el duelo no está dentro del calendario FIFA y la nómina solo tiene futbolistas de la Liga MX, el partido es relevante para determinar qué jugadores aún tienen chances de agarrar un boleto al Mundial de Catar, el cual comienza en 87 días.
I wouldn't want to tell you to steal the World Cup trophy. I would probably get in trouble with the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy of the Qatar World Cup for saying something like that, and you don't want to be on those guys' shit list, so I'm not saying that.
A congratulations is in order to the people of Harrison, New Jersey, who'll likely be counted among the last to have witnessed one of the final live performances of Lionel Messi in an Argentina jersey.
This here is Week 3 of our keeping track of Americans abroad in these power rankings that aren't really power rankings, and I declare this edition a collector's issue. That's right, fire up the printer, make sure you've got the necessary ink levels and print this whole webpage out for posterity.
This was the week the USMNT made a strong claim to be retroactively awarded the 2021 FIFA Club World Cup after beating Chelsea 3-0 at Elland Road.
The Major Leeds Soccer (MLS) experiment stunned the football community Sunday by recording its first win over Chelsea in almost 20 years, a 3-0 clinic at Elland Road, with USMNT attacker Brenden Aaronson scoring his first goal for the club and compatriot Tyler Adams putting Mason Mount in his back pocket for 77 minutes.
A blood and thunder start to the match was followed by a period of Chelsea superiority where it looked like the Blues would ultimately punish Leeds' wild ways, but Jesse Marsch's team seems to gather its strength from periods of distress.
Josh Sargent is on a hot streak right now for Norwich City in the EFL Championship. After scoring a sensational header on Tuesday he followed that performance up on Friday with a brace for the Canaries to defeat Millwall 2-0. The Sargent goals vs Millwall were the only goals of the game.
Organizers have sold 2.45 million tickets for this year's World Cup in Qatar, world soccer governing body FIFA said on Thursday, with more than half a million of them sold in the last sales period from July 5-16.
FIFA said the biggest number of allocated tickets were for group stage matches like Cameroon vs. Brazil, Brazil vs. Serbia, Portugal vs. Uruguay, Costa Rica vs. Germany and Australia vs. Denmark.
Mexico received a devastating blow ahead of the 2022 World Cup: Jesús "Tecatito" Corona will NOT play in the tournament after suffering a severe injury during Sevilla's training session Thursday.
It's not clear how Tecatito got injured, but things looked ugly when the 29-year-old had to leave the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on a stretcher and then go to a local hospital in an ambulance.
ÚLTIMA HORA
El Tecatito Corona se ha marchado en camilla y en ambulancia del entrenamiento del Sevilla FC.
