Jessica McDonald led North Carolina to a 2-1 win over OL Reign, but Jessica Fishlock provided the moment of the week with a magical goal for a late consolation on Saturday. The Jess Fishlock lob was in my opinion the best goal of the day, even with Euro 2020 going on.
Álvaro Morata is always in the right areas as a striker. He just can’t quite figure out the finishing when his team needs it most.
Morata, who misses more chances than most players ever create, will rue a missed opportunity on a rebound off the post as Spain huffed and puffed to a second straight draw at Euro 2020, this a 1-1 with Poland on Saturday. Not even a first-half goal from Morata will help us forget this latest miss.
This is the Germany we’ve grown to expect. This was not the Germany Portugal wanted to run into at Euro 2020. Robin Gosens — not Cristiano Ronaldo — was the star man in Saturday’s critical Group F clash, setting up two goals and scoring once to help Germany thrash Portugal 4-2 in Munich.
Hungría ha dado mucho más de lo que todos imaginábamos que daría antes del inicio de la Euro. Le aguantó a Portugal por 85 minutos antes de colapsar y caer 0-3 ante Portugal, los 60 mil hinchas que han llenado el Puskás Arena nos han dado el mejor ambiente en un estadio desde que comenzó la pandemia de Covid-19 y ahora, luego de empatarle a Francia, también le regalaron al mundo uno de los momentos más virales de la competencia: la mujer del escritorio.
Few in the history of the game have had the desire to score possessed by Cristiano Ronaldo. Unfortunately for the Portugal captain, his defense his currently scoring more than him against Germany.
Ronaldo’s early goal was erased by a pair of own goals as Germany led 2-1 at the half of their enthralling Group F match on Saturday. Germany went on to win 4-2.
Nació en Stoke-on-Trent y jugó en las selecciones juveniles de Inglaterra junto a Reece James y Mason Mount, pero hoy no hace goles por los Three Lions en la Euro, sino que en la Copa América y por Chile. Es Ben Brereton, el nuevo hombre de área de La Roja.
Hungary played damn well for about 80 minutes against Portugal on Tuesday only to give up three goals late. On Saturday, the once-mighty Magyars put a full 100 minutes in and held world champion France to a 1-1 draw in one of the most impressive upsets of the tournament thus far. But forget the match for a moment, because the biggest story of the game was a pitch-side reporter’s reaction to Hungary’s goal. The Hungary desk woman is our new favorite meme of Euro 2020.
Before Euro 2020 kicked off, one of the most highly anticipated matches of the competition was Friday’s Group D match between the original soccer rivals England and Scotland. The 115th edition of the oldest international football rivalry was about as bland as food from the two nations. The teams played to a 0-0 draw in what was by far the most boring match at Euro 2020 thus far.
Anyone watching the Copa América on Thursday night saw Neymar absolutely toy with Peruvian defenders. With Brazil up a couple of goals, Neymar was just fooling around having fun before he was scythed down. But the Alexander Isak run vs Slovakia made Neymar’s skills look like child’s play, as the 21-year-old Swede diced half of Slovakia’s defense before ripping a shot that nearly opened the scoring on Friday.
Brazil continued its red-hot form Thursday night with a 4-0 victory against Peru in the team’s second Copa América fixture. Before showing the goals, you must see these silky Neymar skill moves vs Peru. Neymar was just toying with Peru’s best defenders because he can.
Good luck getting the ball from Neymar pic.twitter.com/einym8tzx7
