Puede que Raúl Jiménez sea uno de los 10 jugadores más devaluados en la Premier League en la última temporada, sin embargo, la pasión que genera entre los aficionados del Wolverhampton sigue intacta, tal como quedó demostrado durante esta Navidad.
If you would like to learn how to alienate a club’s fanbase, perhaps irrevocably, you would struggle to find a better case study than the NWSL’s N.C. Courage this week. On Sunday, the club announced the signing of a player, Jaelene Daniels, antithetical to the vast majority of the team’s and league’s fans. After two full days of silence, the club put out a shockingly meek “apology” late Wednesday night, only further upsetting the once devoted fanbase.
Are you the kind of person who prefers to respond to emails and texts with GIFs instead of having to type something out? Do you also love the USWNT? If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, then you or a loved one may be entitled to a plethora of new USWNT GIFs.
As a sendoff for 2021, the USWNT social team decided to do its version of Spotify Wrapped in GIF form. You might want to put a few of these in your back pocket for a rainy day.
The USWNT released 18 total GIFs for your viewing pleasure. The18 (see what I did there?) USWNT GIFs are as follows.
No es un misterio que cada futbolista en el planeta sueña con jugar algún día en la Champions League, pero hasta ahora nunca habíamos escuchado de un jugador que pensara usar el himno de la competencia para ponerlo en el día de su boda. Al menos hasta ahora.
Quien rompe el registro es Raúl Gudiño, arquero de Chivas, quien contó con un coro especial para cantar la célebre melodía al final de la ceremonia en la que contrajo nupcias con Ale Román.
¡Qué momento! ❤️
El Paso Locomotive FC beat out eight teams across three leagues to be crowned the best professional soccer club in Texas, winning the inaugural Copa Tejas Shield. Admittedly, that wasn’t too hard given how bad the MLS and NWSL clubs in Texas were in 2021, but we’re not here to discuss merits; we’re here to discuss ... chips and dip? No, that can’t be right.
On Sunday afternoon, the N.C. Courage announced they had signed a one-year deal with retired fullback Jaelene Daniels, formerly known as Jaelene Hinkle. Now NWSL fans across the country — especially in North Carolina — are furious over the signing. On the other side of the continent, the Portland Thorns angered their fans for drafting a player with a history of horribly racist, homophobic and transphobic behavior on Twitter.
This is not how the NWSL wanted to end what has already been a shit year for the league.
Vivimos en días en que los equipos de fútbol no solo deben ganar puntos dentro de la cancha, sino que también likes en las redes sociales. Y la tarea no es simple, porque requiere de creatividad, un recurso en peligro de extinción.
Pero de vez en cuando aparece algo que realmente merece ese like y que se vuelve viral. ¿Caso en exposición? La idea del Club León de aprovechar el espíritu navideño de estas fechas para presentar a su nuevo refuerzo, el uruguayo Federico Martínez, con un villancico.
The USMNT Goal of the Year 2021 was announced on Wednesday with the fans voting correctly and picking Sergiño Dest as the winner.
Sergino Dest’s BANGER against Costa Rica was voted best @USMNT goal of 2021
Given the popularity of superhero movies these days, it’s easy to believe they can do anything — one large-chinned figure can snap his fingers and make half the world disappear, another underwear-on-the-outside figure can fly so fast he can reverse time and another dude fires a bow and arrow really well (OK that guy I don’t get). But not even your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man’s webs can ensnare the fastest footballer on the planet.
