The USMNT vs. Uruguay friendly never got going in the way we imagined on Sunday night at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City. At the end of the day, the main talking point is that Uruguay manager Diego Alonso made seven substitutions — Diego Rossi and Facundo Pellistri somehow entered the match together in the 68th minute when that obviously shouldn't have been allowed.
Con cinco goles de Lionel Messi, Argentina venció a Estonia y continúa su tour de la alegría.
La Albiceleste sumó 33 partidos sin perder y poco a poco se instala como una de las selecciones favoritas para quedarse con la Copa del Mundo Catar 2022. ¿Lo de Messi? Sensacional.
Prior to Argentina's friendly against Estonia at El Sadar in Pamplona on Sunday, Lionel Messi had only once registered five goals in a single game throughout his illustrious career. That was back in 2012 when Barcelona crushed Bayer Leverkusen 7-1 in the Champions League Round of 16.
You get the feeling that if Ukraine had been playing any other nation on the planet in Sunday's playoff, they'd be going to the World Cup. The team picked up where it left off against Scotland — playing with a passion, verve and energy that saw the visitors threaten to play Wales off the park at Cardiff City Stadium.
María Sánchez acaba de poner su nombre en la lista de candidatas a la mejor asistencia del año, en la victoria 5-0 de Houston Dash sobre Orlando Pride por la NWSL.
Lo de la Bombi fue sensacional: una bola cruzada y chanfle que voló 35 metros hasta encontrar con precisión matemática la cabeza de la inglesa Rachel Daly para el 2-0 parcial.
The San Diego Wave twice came from a goal down thanks to an Alex Morgan brace, including a 90th-minute equalizer, to snatch a 2-2 draw with Kansas City on Saturday to stay atop the early NWSL standings with 13 points from seven games.
The Wave is undefeated at home (2-0), but they've been exceptionally good on the road for an expansion side (2-2-1). They just wouldn't quit on Sunday at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City.
Kristen Hamilton had given the Current the lead in the 11th-minute, but Morgan brought the Wave level from the spot in the 37th.
Australia’s U-23 team scored an absurd scorpion kick goal on Saturday during the U-23 Asian Cup. In a group stage game against Iraq the Aussies went down a man just 17 minutes into the game and needed something special to score. 20-year-old striker Alou Kuol did just that and more with this potential Puskás candidate.

BUDAPEST — A second-half penalty from Dominik Szoboszlai earned Hungary a shock 1-0 win over England in the Nations League on Saturday - their first victory against Gareth Southgate's side in 60 years.
The hosts kept coming and made their pressure count as Szoboszlai converted from the penalty spot in the 66th minute after Zsolt Nagy was fouled by Chelsea defender Reece James - a decision which incensed the England players.
BRUSSELS — Memphis Depay scored a double as the Netherlands ended 25 years without success against neighbors Belgium with a 4-1 thumping of their hosts in the Nations League in Brussels on Friday.
Steven Bergwijn and Denzel Dumfries netted the other two goals as the Dutch ended Belgium’s almost six-year unbeaten home record in a stark reversal for the team, who had topped the FIFA rankings for three years until being recently deposed.
The UEFA Nations League has plenty of haters, including some players who hate the tournament.
