La actuación de la Selección Nacional de México Sub 20 en el Premundial Femenil de la Concacaf continúa coleccionando aplausos y alabanzas.
A la ya sabida clasificación al Mundial de Costa Rica 2022 y un subcampeonato que desafía el monopolio de Estados Unidos y Canadá, el Tri dirigido por Maribel Domínguez sumó la inclusión de tres de sus jugadoras en el equipo ideal de la competencia.
A esta hora es muy probable que la ansiedad vaya escalando por las piernas de las jugadoras de la Selección Femenil de México que hoy inician el sueño que puede llevarlas al Mundial de Australia y Nueva Zelandia 2023.
En el Estadio El Volcán, el Tri enfrentará a Surinam, un rival que según el ránking FIFA no debiera presentar mayores problemas. México está en el puesto 27 de la dichosa lista, mientras que las sudamericanas aparecen recién en el lugar 129.
El inicio del camino al Mundial de Australia y Nueva Zelandia 2023 está a la vuelta de esta semana. El próximo jueves 17 de febrero, el Tri Femenil debutará ante Surinam (9:00 p.m. ET) en las clasificatorias al Campeonato Concacaf W 2022, la primera de las dos fases que México deberá superar para asegurar su boleto en la cita planetaria.

Since the advent of the sport in the 1800s, England and football have been intrinsically linked. This bond started with schoolboys on muddy fields, with the objective to get the ball from one end of the field to the other by any means necessary — no rules, no limit on numbers, only brute force.
Football has now evolved into an organized game; manicured, well-lined pitches, tidy uniforms, and 11 players on each side. Kicking the opponent was outlawed and shinguards were installed should a stray boot make contact with the tibia.
After months of back-page rumors and legal challenges, Newcastle United's Saudi takeover was officially announced last week, much to the elation of Newcastle supporters.
Fans took to the streets outside of St. James' Park in celebration of the cash flow that they hope will be injected into the club, as they dreamed of Kylian Mbappé, Philippe Coutinho, and other high-price attackers suiting up in the Magpies' black and white stripes.
“Why is Pulisic not playing?” will be a question frequently asked in the coming weeks as the USMNT prepares for the second window of World Cup qualifying.
