Why Colombia Must Not Be Allowed To Win The World Cup

Para muchos, especialmente en América del sur, la Copa del mundo lo es todo. Cada cuatro años los fanáticos del fútbol se reúnen con la esperanza de que su país gane el trofeo. Para algunos (Alemania, Brasil), es algo que se puede lograr. Para otros (Inglaterra, Estados Unidos) es tan solo un sueño.

Mexico And South Korea Will Stress, But That’s Why Sweden Needs Zlatan At The World Cup

The USWNT, the world's top-ranked side, defeated Germany, second-ranked, 1-0 to begin SheBelieves Cup play Thursday night, Megan Rapinoe scoring the game's lone goal off an assist from Alex Morgan.

You Can Bring Drugs Into The Russia World Cup Venues

The 2018 World Cup was always going to be a little unhinged. This, after all, is a country in which groups of ultras get together before league games and partake in semi-organized brawls. After the Russians took the spotlight at Euro 2016 in France with some, well let's be polite and call them "antics," folks were right to be worried about fan safety during the World Cup.

Japan Keeper Sums Up 6-2 Loss With 4 Awful Seconds

The Algarve Cup began Wednesday with six matches. The highlight was supposed to be Japan, a finalist in the last two World Cups, against the Netherlands, the reigning European champion. However, the match was hardly competitive, with the Leeuwinnen thoroughly dominating the match.
