In America, there's a very sizable contingent of once-every-four-year fans who usually only get their soccer fix via the rare SportsCenter highlight or through that one friend who's always at the Irish pub early on Saturdays. But when the World Cup rolls around, this crowd appreciates and gets down with the month-long spectacle, making the U.S. feel as soccer-mad as any other country on the planet.
An investigation into former U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter's dispute with his wife outside a bar in 1992 concluded that U.S. Soccer was not in the wrong for hiring him as the national team coach, the federation said on Monday.
The investigators' conclusions mean there is now no legal impediment to employing Berhalter, who remains a candidate for the coaching job which is now held by Anthony Hudson on an interim basis.
Luego de la fractura de cráneo que sufrió en 2020, Raúl Jiménez no volvió a ser el mismo. A estas alturas es un cliché decirlo, pero los números no mienten. Pese al admirable esfuerzo que pone en el campo, el Lobo ya no es la máquina de goles que enamoró a los fanáticos del Wolverhampton.
Peor aún, es cada vez más raro verlo anotando y este dato es revelador: hoy 10 de marzo, el delantero mexicano cumplió un año sin hacer un gol en la Premier League.
Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to inform you of the unthinkable, the impossible, the never-before-seen result of crest rebrand done right — the Football Association of Ireland has shocked the planet.
It always helps when your old badge is entirely forgettable, and that's what Ireland previously had with a soccer ball that had some Celtic flair. It wasn't the worst, but it was a pretty heavy-handed "we're a soccer team" logo.
MANCHESTER, England - Global soccer players union FIFPRO said that the World Cup should never again be squeezed into a November-December window, and that Raphaël Varane's international retirement should ring alarm bells about the sport's smothering schedule.
FIFPRO released their World Cup 2022 Post-Tournament Review and Player Survey on Thursday, and said the results confirmed their fears around players' mental and physical fatigue and injury risk.
PARIS - France women's national soccer team coach Corinne Diacre has been sacked on the recommendation of the Executive Committee, the French soccer federation (FFF) said on Thursday.
Former France captain Wendie Renard said last month she would not play at this year's World Cup and French multimedia outlet RMC Sport reported that Renard said she would not represent the national side as long as Diacre is in charge.
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.
With kick-off less than 20 weeks away (135 days) and Wednesday serving as the global celebration of International Women's Day, FIFA marked the occasion by unveiling the official poster for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
The main poster is accompanied by one for each of the nine host cities, "highlighting the iconic and historical landmarks, wildlife and vibrant cultures that are unique to each."
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.
