Las rodillas están sufriendo en la Liga MX. En apenas dos jornadas del Apertura 2022, ya son dos los jugadores que se perderán el resto del torneo y una buena parte del Clausura 2023 debido a una rotura de ligamentos en la articulación: Mauro Manotas del Atlas y Joao Rojas del Monterrey.
Ambos se suman a José Juan Macías de Chivas, quien sufrió una lesión similar durante la pretemporada.
Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant might be one of the most confident athletes on the planet. He believes in himself to the highest degree and so much so that he went on record to say that he could defeat Lionel Messi one-on-one in soccer.
The only caveat was that Morant wants to play goalkeeper when going up against Messi.
Que se iba, que se quedaba, que se iba. En enero pasado se armó toda una telenovela en torno al futuro de Carlos Salcedo, quien finalmente dejó Tigres para convertirse en jugador franquicia del Toronto FC de la MLS.
El triunfo de Estados Unidos sobre México Femenil la noche del martes no solo ratificó la realidad de un Tri sin Mundial de 2023 ni Juegos Olímpicos de 2024, sino que también añadió un nuevo fracaso para el fútbol mexicano durante el ciclo 2021-22.
A nivel de selección, a nivel de clubes e incluso a nivel individual de jugadores en Europa, el balompié azteca vive atrapado en una malaria que parece no tener cura.

But on Monday, Norway's proud women's national team — one of the few to have won a continental title, a World Cup and Olympic gold — suffered the worst defeat in European Championship history: an 8-0 capitulation to England in Brighton.
MLS Next Pro — a new third-tier league launched in 2022 that features mostly MLS reserve teams — is looking to change the game, literally. MLS Next Pro is in the middle of its first season and will be testing out two new rules effective immediately. One of the two new MLS Next Pro rules would be a game changer if it spread to the rest of the sport.
The two new rules are called the Off-field Treatment Rule and the Red Card Suspension Rule. Let’s look at how they work.
DOHA - Qatar's World Cup stadiums are set to be alcohol-free, with beer sales outside arenas only allowed before and after some matches, a source with knowledge of plans for the soccer tournament said.
This year's World Cup is the first to be held in a Muslim country with strict controls on alcohol, presenting unique challenges for organizers of an event often associated with beer drinking fans and sponsored by global brewing brands.
Pumas tiene hambre de título. Los de la UNAM no son campeones desde el Clausura 2011 y silenciosamente han ido fortaleciendo su plantilla para cumplir su sueño con las contrataciones de los argentinos Gustavo del Prete y Eduardo Salvio. Pero no es todo: los universitarios quieren seguir añadiendo nombres y el último gran objetivo es de clase mundial: Dani Alves.

One of those leaving TUDN is the legendary announcer Pablo Ramírez, who posted a farewell note on his social accounts last Friday, July 1.
Spain, the 7/2 favorite to triumph at the upcoming Women's European Championship in England, has suffered a massive blow to its campaign ahead of its opening match against Finland on Friday.

Putellas was then taken to the hospital to discover the extent of her injury.
