Solskjær Says Cristiano Ronaldo’s Man United Critics Are Dead Wrong

MANCHESTER, England - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær said Cristiano Ronaldo had answered many critics of his value to the team with his display in the 3-2 Champions League win over Atalanta on Wednesday.

Ronaldo grabbed the 81st minute winner with a superbly executed header to maintain his 100% scoring record in group F after three games.

But Solskjær took aim at those who had questioned whether the Portuguese forward, the Champions League record goalscorer, contributed enough work-rate to his side.

‘All Or Nothing: Juventus’ Trailer Shows Andrea Pirlo Chewing Out His Team

Juventus’ 2020-21 season, Andrea Pirlo’s first and only in charge, was a failure by the club’s own lofty standards. Pirlo delivered the Coppa and Supercoppa, but Juve’s nine-year grip on the Scudetto was ended by Inter Milan while Cristiano Ronaldo’s Champions League dream was humiliatingly crushed by Porto in the Round of 16.

The fallout was immense with Pirlo sacked and Ronaldo sold, making the campaign one of Juve’s most dramatic — thankfully, Amazon Prime Video Sport was there filming it all.

The Youngest Pro Soccer Player Ever Was 12. He Almost Died Out There

For the first time ever, Portugal has captured the Futsal World Cup.

América Y Chivas Empatan En Un Clásico Con Zapes, Piquetes De Ojos Y Un VAR Inoperante

El Clásico Nacional entre América y Chivas pudo haber terminado con un mezquino 0-0, pero ninguno de los 60.000 espectadores que acudieron al Azteca ni los millones que lo vieron por TV podrán decir que fue un partido aburrido. Hubo oportunidades para ambos equipos y una larga lista de polémicas alimentadas por el mal arbitraje de César Arturo Ramos y un VAR que miró para el lado en un par de jugadas que merecían tarjetas rojas.

Acosta Told Guardado That He’s ‘Retired’ And ‘Going To Let Country Down’ Ahead Of PK Fail

It’s almost been 90 days since the raucous CONCACAF Nations League final in Denver between the USMNT and Mexico, but still just thinking about the atmosphere, the back-and-forth scoreline and the improbable ending is enough to give you chills.

The match was perfectly poised throughout, beginning with Tecatito Corona’s early opener and Gio Reyna’s first-half response, and continuing into the second half with Diego Lainez’s impressive strike cancelled out by Weston McKennie’s late towering header.

There’s No Spectacle In Sports Quite Like Players Fighting Their Own Fans

One of the greatest stories in sports right now belongs to Major League Baseball, where the New York Mets have collapsed throughout August to piss away a spot in the playoffs. The fans at Citi Field in Queens have voiced their displeasure by booing the players, but players have responded by jeering their own fans.

After hitting a home run last Sunday, Javier Báez gave the fans a double thumbs-down gesture when crossing the plate — an action that was repeated by teammates Francisco Lindor and Kevin Pillar.
