Norwich City got its second point of the Premier League season with a scoreless draw against Brighton on Saturday. A brutal Josh Sargent miss vs. Brighton in the first half will have the Canaries wishing they got all three points.

LEICESTER — Leicester City ended their four-match winless run in the Premier League as goals from Youri Tielemans, Caglar Soyuncu, Jamie Vardy and Patson Daka helped them to a comeback 4-2 home win over Manchester United on Saturday.
With the score 2-2 late in the game, Vardy netted a superb goal with the outside of his foot to cap a frantic five-minute spell before substitute Patson Daka put the icing on the cake for Leicester in stoppage time.
¡Quién más si no Vardy!
¡Oh, boy! El cliché dice que las eliminatorias de la CONMEBOL son las más difíciles del mundo y el camino a Catar 2022 sirve como buen ejemplo. Fuera de Brasil y Argentina -en el avión a Medio Oriente- y una virtualmente eliminada Venezuela, hay otras siete selecciones luchando por dos cupos directos y uno al repechaje.
Terminada la triple fecha de octubre, la pelea es estrecha. Quedando seis jornadas son apenas seis puntos los que separan al tercer lugar (Ecuador) del noveno (Perú).
Arsenal defeated Hoffenheim 4-0 in the Women’s Champions League on Thursday to move up to second-place in Group C. The Gunners’ victory saw the first Tobin Heath Arsenal goal, along with scores from Vivianne Miedema, Leah Williamson and Kim Little.
Heath got her first Champions League start with Arsenal. She previously made an appearance as a substitute in Arsenal’s Champions League opener against Barcelona, where Heath picked up an assist.
Everyone is well-versed in Alphonso Davies’ game-changing pace and ability to dice any defender on the planet off the dribble, but it’s his increasing effectiveness in the final third that makes the 20-year-old standout as one of football’s brightest talents.
That’s not to say it’s a new development in his game. At the tender age of 17 Davies was already one of Major League Soccer’s most devastating players in attack, scoring eight goals and providing 10 assists in 31 games to help facilitate his $11 million move to Bayern. (He’s now valued at $155 million.)
La selección mexicana resistió firme a un ambiente lleno de hostilidades en El Salvador y sacó un valioso triunfo en el camino a Catar 2022. No importaron las amenazas al estilo "El Juego del Calamar", tampoco la "serenata" en su hotel de concentración ni los cánticos y abucheos que recibió en el Estadio Cuscatlán. Al final el Tri venció a La Selecta 0-2, en un duelo en el que además Raúl Jiménez volvió a anotar y demostrar que es un maestro tirando penales.
The USMNT got its World Cup qualifying campaign back on the right track, baby, yeah, by defeating Costa Rica 2-1 in Columbus, Ohio, on Wednesday night. Block every voice that tells you this isn’t something worth celebrating because after going down 1-0 to a strange goal early, the U.S. produced the sort of performance that makes this grind of qualifying more than worth your time.
After suffering a 2-1 defeat to Greece back on Sept. 8, Sweden exacted a bit of revenge on Tuesday by winning 2-0 in Stockholm to leapfrog Spain at the top of UEFA World Cup qualifying Group B with only two matches remaining.
Third-place Greece hasn’t been eliminated mathematically, but really it’s over for the Ethniki.
Oman’s national team may have created one of the best corner kick strategies ever seen on a soccer field. Oman defeated Vietnam 3-1 on Tuesday with a game that featured a bicycle kick, an Olimpico goal and a horrendous VAR decision.
El Clásico Nacional Femenil se quedó en Guadalajara. Viniendo desde atrás, Chivas venció a América con un doblete de Alicia Cervantes. El registro le sirvió a la delantera para escalar a la cima de la tabla de goleo y también para recordarle al mundo que Las Águilas son una de sus víctimas favoritas.
Ambos equipos tuvieron oportunidades en el transcurso del duelo, pero el par de roscas en el marcador no se movió hasta el minuto 79, cuando María Natalia Mauleón adelantó al América, aprovechando una serie de botecitos en el área y una débil marca de la zaga tapatía.
