Cristiano Ronaldo made history on Thursday when he made his 197th appearance for Portugal’s national team in a Euro qualifier vs. Liechtenstein. CR7 passes Kuwait’s Bader Al-Mutawa to take the honor of most capped player in men’s international soccer history.

Con un doblete ante Liechtenstein, Cristiano Ronaldo celebró un nuevo récord: convertirse en el futbolista masculino con más apariciones en la historia de una selección nacional: 197.
Después de las penas y frustraciones que dejó el paso de Portugal en el Mundial de Catar, el futuro internacional de Cristiano Ronaldo estuvo en el aire.
DORTMUND, Germany - Borussia Dortmund crushed Hertha Berlin 4-1 on Sunday with a goal and an assist from Karim Adeyemi to join leaders Bayern Munich and Union Berlin at the top of the Bundesliga and stretch their winning run in the league to six consecutive matches this year.
PSG's wildly inconsistent form since club football restarted was perfectly encapsulated by Sunday's riotous 4-3 win over Lille at the Parc des Princes.
The PSG Ultras ran the gamut of demanding a statue for Kylian Mbappé, calling for the heads of all these overpaid pretenders and finally celebrating deliriously as chants of "Messi, Messi, Messi" reverberated around Paris. Just another day for les Parisiens.
The home side looked set for a stroll after Mbappé and Neymar scored inside 17 minutes.
If you were to give me the option of going to prison for a year or taking a free kick from Hulk directly to the face, I’m taking the prison option. If you’re not convinced, then perhaps this Hulk free kick goal will persuade you.
Hulk scored an insane free kick goal on Wednesday vs. Democrata that had a top speed of 74 miles per hour.
The 36-year-old Brazilian scored two goals on the day; however, everyone is talking about his second.
If you’re a casual soccer fan who tunes in for the World Cup and the occasional game, you probably noticed an odd tactic. “Why does a player lie down behind the wall in soccer?” you may have asked yourself.
The tactic of having a player laying down behind the wall is simple. Having a player lay down behind the wall denies the free kick taker any chance at shooting the ball underneath the wall when the players jump.
Luis Chávez fue, sin lugar a dudas, el mejor jugador mexicano del Mundial.
El mediocampista del Pachuca tuvo un gran desempeño a lo largo de los tres partidos en la fase de grupos, coronando todo con un gol de tiro libre frente a Arabia Saudita que, para muchos, ha sido uno de los mejores de la Copa del Mundo hasta el momento.
Una bala a la escuadra.
After advancing from the group stage in seven-straight World Cups, Mexico crashed out of Group C on Wednesday. El Tri defeated Saudi Arabia 2-1, tied Poland on points but fell one short on goal difference in heartbreaking fashion.
México corrió, México hizo goles, México ganó y México soñó. Sin embargo, al final del día, a México le faltó el centavo para el peso y se despidió del Mundial de Catar 2022.
Pese a vencer a Arabia Saudita por 2-1, la diferencia de goles del Tri no fue suficiente para superar a una Polonia que perdió 2-0 ante Argentina, en el otro partido del Grupo C.
La tabla final quedó así:
Sí, la diferencia fue de apenas un gol.
Belgium has been stunned by a moment of Moroccan magic, that puts the African nation top of Group F. Midfielder Abdelhamid Sabiri scored a ridiculous free kick from the most unlikely of angles to get Morocco’s winner against the highly favored Belgians.
