El tren de lamentos del fútbol mexicano continúa. A todas las miserias que conocemos del Tri varonil y el fracaso de la Sub-20, ahora hay que sumar el decepcionante debut de la selección femenil ante Jamaica en el Campeonato W de la Concacaf.
Con un penal convertido por Santiago Giménez en tiempo de descuento, Cruz Azul inició el Apertura 2022 con una victoria por 3-2 sobre Tigres. Lo mejor para La Máquina es que lo hizo en calidad de visitante, extendiendo a 11 el número de partidos invicto en El Volcán y pese a un grotesco error de Sebastián Jurado.
Italian Serie B club Venezia was relegated from Italy’s top flight last season after finishing bottom of the table. I guess the club was so humiliated by the season it decided to change its logo. The new Venezia logo is one of the worst rebrands I’ve ever seen.
Mexican team Mineros de Zacatecas is making the rounds online after some fans detected a peculiar and obscene object of art in the promotional photos of their new jerseys.
Yes, you can chuckle: it is a penis.
The Liga de Expansion MX (second division in Mexico) team unveiled its new kits alongside local brand Spiro last week with a very urban campaign.
El reconocido periodista León Krauze anduvo arruinando esta tarde los planes que tenían la FMF y adidas para el lanzamiento del jersey que usará la selección mexicana durante el Mundial de Catar 2022, luego de publicar una fotografía de sus hijos vistiendo la nueva playera.
Four days ago, Paul Pogba was taking part in Ronaldinho and Roberto Carlos’ “The Beautiful Game” charity match in Miami, Florida.

There's no time like the present to increase your audience by splicing together whatever it is your doing with the global Stranger Things: Season 4 phenomenon, and the national teams of Austria and Denmark tapped into that golden content on Monday during a Nations League match at Ernst Happel Stadion in Vienna.
It began with the flickering of lights — goddamn Vecna up in here — and a power outage that delayed kickoff by 90 minutes. Fans tried to illuminate the pitch with cellphones to get the action started, but after that failed they did the wave.
The UEFA Nations League has plenty of haters, including some players who hate the tournament.

Inefficient ball control, a sloppy defense and a massive miss from Santi Muñoz. Those were the capital sins Mexico was made to pay for during a painful 2-1 defeat against Venezuela in the Maurice Revello tournament.
Nobody can't hide the facts. Seeing how this Mexican U-21 ensemble wasted its ball possession without damaging the opponent, almost mirroring the deficiencies you can see in the adult squad, was very frustrating.
