¡Final brasileña! @Palmeiras y @SantosFC van por la #GloriaEterna.
Occasionally sport coughs up the sort of matchup that you cannot tear your eyes from — not so much a David vs. Goliath battle as it is a 50-car pileup on the highway. We’re talking “how the hell did they find themselves here?” sort of situations.
These were the games that stayed with you, the games that meant something, even if you were too small to understand why.

One element the FIFA videos games have the edge on compared to any other video game series is their soundtracks. Over the past two decades the soccer video game series has been paired to the tunes of endless bangers. The sheer volume of hits means there are also a plethora of underrated FIFA songs dying to be played.
Dani Alves, a player that LaLiga fans know very well, hinted at a possible return to Spain in a tweet that made Sao Paulo supporters very scared. The tweet is in Spanish, and translated to English it reads: “As the saying goes: THE GOOD SON ALWAYS COMES BACK HOME!”

It's not very often that a team can have a disappointing campaign but still find themselves at the top of the table. With the competitiveness of the Premier League, a struggling season means at best mid-table misery, at worst, relegation.
Liverpool is currently even with Manchester United at the top of the Premier League table, but given the exceptional performances of last season, the club's form this year is below Jurgen Klopp's lofty standards.
A finales de septiembre del 2020, Luis Suárez abandonó el Barcelona entre lágrimas y lamentos. El equipo culé necesitaba una renovación de jugadores y una limpieza de vestuario luego de una temporada 19-20 espantosa y un cierre de pesadilla tras perder 2-8 contra el Bayern Munich en los Cuartos de Final de la Liga de Campeones.
La final de la Copa Libertadores 2021 se acerca, y con ella, la esperanza de millones de fanáticos del fútbol en volver a ver un Superclásico Boca-River en la máxima instancia del fútbol sudamericano.
Para que se cumpla esta final, cada uno debe vencer a un fuerte equipo brasileño: Boca se enfrenta a Santos y River a Palmeiras, dos grandes obstáculos para la final soñada de los argentinos.
Fingers crossed that 2021 will be a much better year than 2020. Although we may still be in the midst of a global pandemic starting the new year, there is no reason we should put our heads down and assume we will have a repeat of 2020. One way to really make sure your new year starts off on a high note is by creating goals and resolutions for yourself. As many resolutions only last the first month or so of the new year, coming up with smaller goals that are more obtainable may be ideal.
Here are the top 5 goals that could be set for almost anyone.
The rivalry between Mexico and the United States is one of the best in the world and the greatest in Concacaf. A match between these two national teams always draws in a crowd and is guaranteed to be a vehement encounter.
The frantic finish to the 2019-20 season, the rejiggered smorgasbord of the new campaign and nine months of quarantine have combined to create an unceasing storm of football on our televisions. In many ways it’s been a godsend; in many ways it’s been an obscene bit of servility to broadcast dollars. What are these absurdly sterile performances — played out in soulless grounds across the world — if not momentary benediction for the promise of better times ahead?
