Hoping to build off Thursday's win over El Salvador with another three points in Canada on Sunday to all but book a ticket to the 2022 World Cup, the USMNT came undone in Ontario during a 2-0 defeat in which Gregg Berhalter's attackers were frozen to the artificial turf at Tim Hortons Field.
Charlyn Corral parece haberse enchufado finalmente al fútbol mexicano. La delantera de las Tuzas poco a poco empieza a lucir su legendario talento frente a las porterías rivales y hoy con un doblete ante el Toluca se puso al frente en la tabla de goleo de la Liga MX Femenil.
Corral llegó al Pachuca a mediados de 2021 y su primer torneo estuvo lejos de ser impresionate, anotando apenas cuatro conquistas. En su defensa, la jugadora venía saliendo de una larga lesión en una de sus rodillas.
Egypt came from a goal down to defeat Morocco 2-1 in extra time and advance to the semifinals of the Africa Cup of Nations — where host nation Cameroon awaits — with captain Mohamed Salah providing an inspirational goal and assist for the Pharaohs on Sunday.
Morocco's opening goal came early. If you want an example of why Kylian Mbappé thinks Achraf Hakimi is the best right back in the world, here's one.
Australia head coach Tony Gustavsson said pressure will be mounting on him after the Matildas were knocked out of the Women's Asian Cup on Sunday following their shock quarterfinal defeat by South Korea.
Joint-favorites Australia crashed out of the continental tournament after Chelsea midfielder Ji So-yun scored with two minutes remaining to earn the Koreans a 1-0 victory in Pune.
Here it's a pill hard to swallow: Concacaf doesn't have the monopoly on absurdity. Sorry. Other confederations also have a fair share of the industry, and they are not shy when it is time to demonstrate it.
And yes, we are looking at you, CONMEBOL.
Thursday night there were three games in the South American qualifiers, and all of them brought goals, emotions but also a good amount of WTF moments.
You don't have time; I don't have time, so let's go to the point.
QUITO — Alisson said the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) had prevented his side from being "punished unfairly" after the Brazil goalkeeper had two red cards rescinded in Thursday's 1-1 draw with Ecuador in a World Cup qualifier.
Alisson was shown a red card after 25 minutes for a fierce tackle and another in stoppage time for felling Ayrton Preciado as he attempted to punch the ball, but on both occasions the referee consulted VAR and changed his mind.
"I think this was the first time this has happened in the history of football," the Liverpool keeper said.
La visita de México a Jamaica estuvo intensa a nivel de emociones. Sobre todo para Gerardo Martino, quien por momentos seguro pensó que su trabajo como entrenador del Tri tenía las horas contadas.
Los Reggae Boyz vencían a la selección mexicana pese a jugar con un hombre menos, empantando aún más su ya tortuoso camino a Catar 2022. Quedaban 10 minutos de partido y no se veía por donde el Tri podría obrar el milagro. Sin embargo, en apenas 120 segundos, dos rayos de luz nacidos en los pies de Jesús Corona lideraron una remontada que el Tata celebró como si fuera campeón del mundo.
Prior to the USMNT's World Cup qualifier against El Salvador on Thursday night, left back Antonee Robinson was asked to discuss his recent attacking form for Championship-leading Fulham, which has just rattled off four straight wins while scoring an incredible 22 goals.
During that run, Robinson's hit one from 20 yards out and provided two assists while going the full 90 in every match.
The USWNT wraps up its annual January Camp in Austin, Texas, on Friday after 10 days of work that's served to allow Vlatko Andonovski a closer look at some fresh faces, including 13 players (half the roster) with 10 caps or fewer.
I’m a big fan of superb athletes doing incredible, unexpected things on the field. I particularly love to watch pros pulling off incredible feats without even looking, whether it’s Roberto Firmino’s devilish no-look goals or the NFL’s Patrick Mahomes completing no-look passes.
