María Sánchez Tiene Una Bazuca En Su Pierna Izquierda Y El Estadio Azteca Fue Testigo De Su Poder

Dentro de las muchas habilidades y talentos que empaca María Sánchez, hay una que sobresale: la potencia de su pierna izquierda. La mediocampista de Tigres tiene realmente una bazuca con la que perfora corazones e ilusiones rivales. No importa si el balón está en movimiento o si es una oportunidad de tiro libre, cada vez que percuta uno espera que la arquera rival esté confesada.

Ese poder, por cierto, estuvo en exhibición en el amistoso que disputaron la selección mexicana y su similar de Colombia, en el Estadio Azteca. 

What Was The Point Of Beating Paraguay 17-0, U.S. Soccer?

The U.S. women’s national team cruised to an 8-0 victory in a friendly on Tuesday night in Cincinnati, hometown hero Rose Lavelle providing a goal and three assists in the process. It was a second straight win over Las Guaraníes after a 9-0 triumph on Thursday in Cleveland, essentially part of U.S. Soccer’s bronze-medal victory tour after the Olympics. 

After watching the USWNT twice destroy Paraguay by a combined 17-0 over the past week, I found myself wondering: What the fuck was the point of it all? Is this really good the U.S.? For Paraguay? For the game? For anyone?

USL Super League Wants To Evolve Soccer In The U.S.

Soccer is weird. I mean that in the best possible way, but it is weird, especially in the U.S. While every other major sport in the country has well-established leagues and divisions, soccer in this country is still trying to figure things out. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing, and the introduction of the new USL Super League could yet prove to be a boon for the sport. 

The United Soccer League announced on Tuesday the Super League will begin play in 2023. What is it and why should you care? Let’s explain.

Marta’s Perfect Free Kick Against Argentina Was Medicinal For Pelé

The all-time leader in goals scored at a World Cup is not Pelé nor Ronaldo — it’s another Brazilian, the timeless Marta. The brilliant No. 10 added a 113th career international goal to her tally on Monday, a stunning free kick that stirred Pelé whilst the elder Brazilian watched from a hospital. 

Carli Lloyd Scores 4 Goals On First 12 Touches As USWNT Takes Out Olympic Frustrations On Paraguay

After a disappointing third-place finish at the Olympics, the USWNT set out on what was supposed to be a victory tour of sorts with a pair of friendlies against Paraguay in September and two more against South Korea in October. With the U.S. only “celebrating” an unsatisfactory bronze medal, the four-time world champions took out their frustrations on a Paraguay squad that may have wished it had just stayed home.

I’m Embarrassed For EA Sports Over Their Attempt At FIFA 22 Women’s Ratings; How Is Rapinoe Still This High?

Another year, another FIFA game where it’s obvious EA Sports paid no attention to women’s soccer. The FIFA 22 women's ratings are somehow even worse than last year, once again proving the WoSo portion of the franchise is merely lip service to try to appease women without actually putting in any effort.

U.S. Soccer Thinks It Found Solution To Equal Pay; USWNTPA Calls It PR Stunt

The United States Women's National Team Players Association (USWNTPA) on Wednesday labeled the U.S. Soccer Federation's offer of identical contract proposals for both the men's and women's teams as a nothing more than a publicity stunt.

The U.S. Soccer Federation (USSF) announced its offer on Tuesday as part of an effort it said was to align the women's and men's national teams under one collective bargaining agreement.

Dozens Of Young Afghan Female Footballers Reach Pakistan To Seek Asylum

LAHORE, Pakistan — Players from Afghanistan's female youth soccer teams have arrived in Pakistan and will seek political asylum in third countries amid concern over the status of female athletes under the new Taliban government in Kabul.

Some 81 people, including female players of several youth teams, their coaches and family members reached Pakistan through the Torkham border crossing, Umar Zia, a senior Pakistan Football Federation official, said on Wednesday. A further 34 will arrive on Thursday, he said.

Frankenstein Field: The Ultimate Amalgamation Of U.S. Soccer Stadium Abnormalities

One of the biggest struggles in American soccer, both at the amateur and the professional level, is the lack of quality, soccer-specific fields. 

The only options are sharing a field with every other notable mid-level sports team in the city or playing on a forsaken piece of grass with significant wear and minimal seating.

And yet we wonder why we struggle to produce high-quality soccer players.

Lo Mejor Del Gol 100 De Desireé Monsiváis Fue El Festejo Con Sus Compañeras

Con una victoria por 4-0 sobre Tijuana, las Rayadas de Monterrey alcanzaron el segundo puesto del Apertura 2021 de la Liga MX. Fue una victoria importante, pero más aún fue el registro que alcanzó su delantera estrella, Desirée Monsiváis, quien con un doblete se transformó en la primera jugadora en la historia de la competencia en alcanzar los 100 goles.

Monsiváis, una graduada de arquitectura -de ahí su apodo del Arquitecta del Gol-, tuvo pasos en el fútbol de Canadá y Kazajistán antes de sumarse a la naciente Liga MX en la temporada 2017.
