Irán hace lo que Estados Unidos no hizo y vence a Gales en el último suspiro

Estados Unidos soñaba con un empate en este partido. Sin embargo, luego de un gol anulado y dos tiros en los postes en una misma jugada, Irán finalmente encontró premio a su insistencia y derrotó a Gales con dos estocadas in extremis, ¡al minuto 98 y al 101!

El Team Melli mostró una cara mucho más colorida que la fantasmal imagen que dejó en la derrota 6-2 ante Inglaterra, en su debut en el Grupo B de Catar, del que también forma parte el Team USA. 

Iran defeats Wales with two stoppage time goals to throw group B in total chaos

The Iran national team proved to the world the talent it possesses with an incredible 2-0 victory vs. Wales on Friday. Iran’s goals came in the 99th and 101st minutes after dominating the Dragons all game.

The Wales national team looked atrocious, disjointed and unlike themselves as they were completely outplayed against Iran. Iran hit both posts in the game, forced great saves out of Welsh goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey (who was shown a red card in the 86th minute) and found the win at the end.

Brasil vence a Serbia con un exquisito gol de tijera de Richarlison

Jogo bonito, pero sobre todo mucha paciencia. Esa fue la receta que necesitó Brasil para vencer 2-0 a Serbia en su debut en el Mundial de Catar.

La llave para desbloquear el cerco defensivo de los europeos fue el delantero del Tottenham, Richarlison, quien anotó ambas conquistas.

Una de ellas fue un auténtico golazo.

Gol de tijera de Richarlison

En la primera etapa, Serbia apretó los espacios y con una línea de cinco atrás le hizo la vida imposible al ataque brasileño. 

Watch: Richarlison goal is one of the best you will ever see

Richarlison, take a bow. There are few words that could possibly do this goal justice. After a difficult first half, Richarlison firmly stamped his name on the match with one of the all-time great World Cup goals. 

“Samba Soccer at its absolute best,” according to Stu Holden. “That is Joga Bonito. That is the Beautiful game,” added Jon Strong.

Richarlison, in his first World Cup appearance for Brazil, scored his second goal of the match with a beautiful overhead kick that will live forever, and deservedly so.
