Vuelve la campaña por el regreso de Chicharito Hernández a la selección mexicana

Tras el fracaso en Catar 2022, México comienza – más lentamente de lo que uno quisiera – a dar los primeros pasos camino al Mundial de 2026, un proceso que debería estar marcado por la renovación y las inclusión de nuevos talentos.

Sin embargo, no faltan las voces que creen que el nuevo proyecto debe iniciarse mirando al pasado. Dicho de otro modo, el coro que busca el retorno de Javier Hernández a la selección nacional está de regreso.

Erling Haaland awakens from World Cup slumber and scores after just 10 minutes vs. Liverpool

Erling Haaland is back ladies and gentlemen. The 22-year-old Norwegian superstar has spent the last month patiently waiting for the club season to resume. His last game for Manchester City was on Nov. 12 in which he failed to score.

That wouldn’t be the case against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup on Thursday.

Watch all 172 goals scored at the 2022 World Cup

Do you miss the World Cup? Well, you are not the only one.

In terms of spectacle, Qatar 2022 was fun and set an all-time goal-scoring record for the tournament. The 32 teams participating in the event bagged a combined 172 goals, one more than the 171 we saw in France 1998 and Brazil 2014.

That's an average of 2.68 goals per game. Not bad, right?

¿Se cae el sueño de Cruz Azul? Gremio intenta seducir a Luis Suárez

Cruz Azul sueña con tener a Luis Suárez para el Clausura 2023 y el molino de los rumores asegura que La Máquina le propuso dos años de contrato a cambio de jugosos seis millones de dólares. La oferta, sin embargo, todavía no convence del todo al Pistolero.

El uruguayo – libre después de un semestre en Club Nacional – no ha dicho que no a La Máquina, pero se deja querer a la espera de otros ofrecimientos. La MLS siempre ha sido opción, mientras que desde Brasil, el Gremio se ha sumado a los cantos de sirena.

Pelé did it first – compilation video shows Pelé doing skills that players still use today

Much has been said over the last year whether or not Pelé should still be considered the all-time great of soccer after Lionel Messi was crowned World Cup champion with Argentina in Qatar 2022.

Their achievements and international success serve as strong arguments to consider one of them as the greatest player of all time over the other.

Detrás de la sobredosis de sponsors hay un jersey del Necaxa en tributo a Don Ramón

El Necaxa reveló su tercer jersey para la temporada 2022-23 y sorprendió a seguidores y aficionados neutrales con la linda intención de rendir tributo a Don Ramón, el legendario personaje del Chavo del 8 interpretado por el no menos icónico actor Ramón Valdés.

La playera tiene un diseño simple y en el que se estampan una serie de frases clásicas del personaje que alimentan la nostalgia. Sin embargo, el diseño no convence a todos, debido a una serie de factores, pero principalmente por el abusivo número de sponsors que suele manchar las camisetas de la Liga MX.

Here's the history behind the black cloak Lionel Messi wore while lifting the World Cup trophy

Written by Pardis Mahdavi courtesy of The Conversation

Shortly before Lionel Messi took to the stage to lift up the World Cup trophy, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani put a black cloak, called a “bisht,” over the Argentinian soccer star’s shoulders.

Emiliano Martínez sure is the most hated soccer player right now

Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Diego Costa and Luis Suárez have all been, at some point in their careers, the most hated soccer player in the world. And after the 2022 World Cup, we may agree that such an infamous honor now belongs to Argentina's goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez.

What a cake!

There's a chance that Martínez is a wonderful person around his family and friends, but on soccer player duties, there is no doubt that he's a massive prick.

At least among those who are not Argentines.
