After earning rave reviews for its presentation of Major League Soccer on opening weekend, Apple TV is wasting no time in hooking more fútbol fans to its product with the release of a trailer (narrated by David Beckham) and release date for a new documentary, Real Madrid: Until The End.
West Brom may have only finished Saturday’s EFL Championship game with 30% possession, but that’s all they needed after two early Daryl Dike goals vs Middlesbrough was enough for a 2-0 victory.
Dike’s pair of goals came just two minutes apart as he bested fellow American goalkeeper Zack Steffen in the 8th and 10th minute.
The first goal for Dike came at the end of a great sequence of passes from West Brom. His darting run into the middle gave him enough space to slip the ball past Steffen.
Sunday's EFL Cup final is a tale of two clubs desperate to herald the beginning of a new era with silverware. For Manchester United, ending a six-year wait for a major trophy would affirm Erik ten Hag's revolution. For Newcastle United, a 68-year drought would be remedied by the wealth of the Saudi PIF and the tinkerings of Eddie Howe.
LIVERPOOL, England - Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp conceded that he had not been able to bring himself to rewatch last season's Champions League final defeat by Real Madrid until this past weekend, insisting reliving the experience was "torture."
The Reds won their first three matches against Real in European competition, between 1981 and 2009. Since then, however, they are winless in six games against them, with five of those ending in defeat.
When an anniversary kit is done right, there's always something stunning about the perfect balance of football heritage with modern technology. We've started 2023 with two perfect examples of this theory.
On Monday, Feb. 13, FC Köln celebrated their 75th anniversary after being founded back in 1948. To commemorate the occasion, the Billy Goats got a special edition shirt by Hummel that they wore on Sunday during a 3-0 Bundesliga victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.
Have you ever wondered why the rule that forces goalkeepers to keep a foot on the goal-line during a penalty kick exists?
Well, an old video of Jerzy Dudek saving a penalty in the 2005 UEFA Champions League Final between Liverpool and AC Milan has resurfaced on social media, serving as a prime example of why that is.
Warning, it's a hard watch.
LOS ANGELES — Angel City FC on Thursday selected 18-year-old Alyssa Thompson with the first pick of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) draft, making the Los Angeles native the first player in league history drafted directly out of high school.
"Alyssa Thompson, for us, is a phenom and generational player," said Angel City general manager Angela Hucles Mangano.
"She's a player who can make an immediate impact, but she's also young and can develop and look to be a player that we're building a future off of, too."
U.S. men’s national team star and Chelsea forward Christian Pulisic is expected to miss at least two months of action due to a knee injury.
Pulisic’s injury came during Chelsea’s Premier League clash with Manchester City on Jan. 5. In the first half Pulisic had his shot blocked by John Stones. Pulisic would go down injured and be substituted out minutes later.
An excellent block by John Stones to prevent Christian Pulisic from potentially scoring.
