El entrenador Raúl Chabrand dio a conocer la lista de jugadores que defenderán a la selección mexicana sub 21 en el Torneo Maurice Revello, conocido en el pasado como Esperanzas de Toulon. En la convocatoria destacan jugadores como Santiago Muñoz del Newcastle y el regreso tras una larga lesión de Eugenio Pizzutto, hoy en el Braga portugués.
The Serie A title rice between Derby della Madonnina rivals Internazionale and AC Milan reached a crescendo this weekend when Inter, trailing 2-0 early, scored four straight against Empoli to win 4-2 and establish a one-point lead over Milan ahead of the Rossoneri's difficult away trip to Hellas Verona on Sunday.
Like Inter, Milan played with fire early and went behind in the 38th minute to an excellently worked Verona goal.
Heading into Tuesday's Champions League semifinal return leg at La Cerámica, both Villarreal and Liverpool knew it'd be a far cry from the Reds' 90 minutes of controlled dominance at Anfield.
"The match next week will be very different from tonight's," Villarreal boss Unai Emery said after the first leg. "I think they are going to suffer more next week in our home."
On Monday, Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp delivered a similar take by saying his side had "to be ready to suffer and sit back in moments, but not as a general approach."
Keaton Parks and Gabriel Pereira scored four minutes apart in the second half to lift New York City FC to a 3-0 victory over the visiting San Jose Earthquakes on Sunday afternoon.
Parks and Pereira became the fourth and fifth players to score multiple goals this season for NYCFC (4-3-1, 13 points), who remained perfect three matches into a five-match homestand.
The rivalry between México and United States is not only in the field. It's becoming more and more common to see both nations battling to convince young, talented dual-citizen soccer players to commit to their programs. Ricardo Pepi, Julián Araujo and Jonathan Gómez are the most high-profile cases last year, but the list grows and grows down the line. One example is the Cowell brothers, Cade and Chance.
¡Pfff! Qué difícil fue tragarse el amistoso entre México y Guatemala. Par de donuts en el marcador y muy poca acción en los arcos, pero al menos sirvió para ver por unos minutos a Marcelo Flores con el jersey del Tri.
Fuera de la fecha FIFA, el partido sirvió para que el técnico Gerardo Martino mirara a varios jugadores jóvenes y de la Liga MX, pensando en los pocos cupos disponibles que tiene para el Mundial de Catar 2022.
After six weeks out with a knee injury that forced him to miss the USMNT's last window of World Cup qualifying, Brenden Aaronson returned to the pitch with RB Salzburg on Sunday and converted a penalty while his club secured a ninth straight Austrian Bundesliga title with four matches remaining.
Aaronson hadn't played since going the distance in Salzburg's Austrian Cup semifinal win over Wolfsberger on March 16, but he returned to the starting lineup against Austria Wien and lasted 64 minutes.
Gerardo Martino announced the Mexican squad facing Guatemala in a friendly game this Wednesday, April 27. Since the match is not during a FIFA international break, the roster is heavily reliant on Liga MX but also packs a couple of surprises. The most interesting of all? The inclusion of 18-year-old and Real Sociedad B defender Jonathan Gómez, who last December made his debut in the USMNT.
We're under two months away from the all-important Concacaf U-20 Championship in Honduras, which serves as qualifying for both the 2023 U-20 World Cup in Indonesia and the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
It's going to be a wild tournament with 20 teams competing — the U.S. is in Group E alongside Canada, Cuba and Saint Kitts and Nevis — but only the semifinalists qualify for the World Cup while the Olympic spots are reserved for the two finalists.
Marcelo Flores aún no debuta en el primer equipo del Arsenal, pero su desarrollo en las divisiones inferiores del equipo inglés no ha pasado inadvertido para Mikel Arteta, entrenador de la primera escuadra de los Gunners.
