Wolverhampton borra a Raúl Jiménez y su esposa lanza dardo lleno de veneno

Wolverhampton se prepara para decirle adiós a Raúl Jiménez. O al menos esa es la lectura lógica de lo que vive el delantero mexicano, quien lleva cuatro partidos sin siquiera ser convocado a la banca de suplentes.

Una situación insólita y que la esposa del jugador, Daniela Basso, ha calificado como un serio acto de deslealtad.

¿Por qué Raúl Jiménez no juega en Wolverhampton?

Jiménez no está lesionado y su ausencia se explica solo como una decisión técnica del entrenador del equipo, Julen Lopetegui.

Doble P, por cierto, no es ajeno al balompié y es por esa razón que decidimos reunir algunas de las historias que dan cuenta del vínculo que los une.

Behemothic Pelé doll with unzipped pants shocks fans during kick-off tribute

Chicharito scores his first goal of 2023 and ends LA Galaxy's hellish run

Chicharito Hernández bagged his first goal of 2023 on Saturday and ended the miserable, winless hell the LA Galaxy were experiencing in MLS.

With four losses and three draws, the mood around the team was far from giddy and the absence of the Mexican striker was a big reason for the stinky start. Hernández had been struggling with muscular injuries and missed the first five matches of the campaign. Although he returned to play some minutes against the Houston Dynamo and provided an assist against LAFC, both games ended in defeat. 

Newcastle humiliate Spurs with 5 goals in opening 21 minutes

St James' Park was reveling in a glorious attacking display with the atmosphere inside the ground turning into a carnival — every completed pass was greeted with an "olé" while the crowd bellowed "shoot" at goalkeeper Nick Pope whenever he took possession.

We still had 60 minutes to play.

Former Japan striker Kazuyoshi Miura added yet another achievement to his age-defying career on Saturday, making his debut for Portuguese second-tier club Oliveirense at the age of 56.

Miura, who joined Oliveirense on loan from Yokohama FC earlier this year, came on in the 90th minute of a 4-1 win at Académico de Viseu.

According to a report on the Portuguese league's website, Miura's appearance made him "the oldest footballer ever to play in Portuguese football, with 56 years, one month and 24 days."
