"¡Nooooo! ¿Por qué él? ¿Por qué él? Lesióname a mí, pero no a mi Bebote".
Seguro esa fue la reacción de miles de aficionados mexicanos que se aprontaban a ver el duelo de Feyenoord ante el Shakhtar Donetsk por la Europa League cuando supieron la noticia de que Santiago Giménez no jugaría el partido debido a una lesión de último minuto.
No Santi today...
El recuerdo de Gerardo Martino al mando de la Selección Mexicana es amargo. Su fracaso en el Mundial de Catar es una herida que todavía no cierra y que el mismo Tata se encarga de echarle sal.
A casi tres meses de su salida del Tri, el DT argentino dio una entrevista al periodista Tomy Arguelles y en ella básicamente despedazó la realidad del fútbol mexicano, criticando la madurez y ambición de sus futbolistas, así como la burbuja de precios que crean los dueños. De paso le tiró flores a la MLS, donde seguramente busca un nuevo trabajo.
I've been there. Trying to silence a bunch of raucous kids in a classroom is a Herculean task. However, a teacher in Argentina might have found a perfect method to achieve it. And she was generous enough to share her secret with other colleagues on a TikTok video.
A hint? All she had to do was mention Lionel Messi.
Paris St Germain forward Neymar has been ruled out for the rest of the season with the Brazil international set to undergo surgery to repair ankle ligaments that will keep him out for at least three months, the Ligue 1 club said on Monday.
Neymar, who has 13 goals and 11 assists in Ligue 1 this season, has not played since a 4-3 win over Lille last month, missing PSG's last two games.
Una jornada más de la Liga MX y una jornada más es que se hace incomprensible la omisión de Víctor Guzmán en la convocatoria de la Selección Mexicana que preparó Diego Cocca. El Pocho está volando en el Clausura 2023 y lo demostró guiando con un gol la victoria 2-0 de Chivas sobre Santos Laguna en la J10 del torneo.
U.S. Soccer could have two new venues to call home in the coming years as Indianapolis and Hawaii are preparing to construct new stadiums.
In Indianapolis the $1 billion Eleven Park is set to break ground in May 2023 which will include a 20,000-seat soccer stadium for USL Championship side Indy Eleven. There are also ambitions to bring a Major League Soccer team to the city.
Se acabó el misterio. Diego Cocca entregó su primera convocatoria al mando de la Selección Mexicana, de cara a los partidos que tendrá el Tri ante Surinam y Jamaica por la Nations League.
La lista cuenta con 34 jugadores y trae una serie de sorpresas, tanto por los nombres que se quedaron fuera de la convocatoria, así como por un par que nadie realmente entiende por qué están ahí.
Dicho de otro modo, el nuevo proceso del combinado nacional comenzó como terminó el ciclo anterior de Gerardo Martino: lleno de polémicas.
BUENOS AIRES - Two people on motorcycles shot at a supermarket belonging to the family of Antonela Roccuzzo, wife of Lionel Messi, in Rosario, in Argentina's Santa Fe province early on Thursday morning, local media and the city's mayor reported.
A threatening hand-written message for 35-year-old Messi, Argentina's captain and seven-times World Player of the Year, was also left on the shop door.
"Messi, we are waiting for you, (Pablo) Javkin (the mayor) is also a narco, he is not going to take care of you," it read.
Newly appointed China head coach Aleksandar Janković is aiming to guide the Asian country to qualification for the 2026 World Cup, the Serbian said, adding that the team has room for improvement.
Despite major government ambitions for the team, China have qualified for the World Cup only once in 2002 when they lost all three of their group matches and failed to score a goal.
PARIS — Noel Le Graet has resigned as president of France's soccer federation amid allegations of harassment and sexual harassment and a government ministry audit this month that concluded the 81-year-old no longer had "the necessary legitimacy" for the job.
Le Graet, head of the French Football Federation since 2011, stepped back last month amid a legal investigation into allegations against him of sexual and moral harassment and after an audit and report commissioned by the sports ministry.
