Miguel Almirón triggered the nostalgia train for Atlanta United fans on Wednesday when he scored in Mercedes-Benz Stadium for Newcastle during a friendly vs. Chelsea. After the goal he hit the old Miguel Almirón Josef Martínez celebration special.
Miguel Almiron scoring in Atlanta just feels right. ❤️
Con dos goles de Germán Berterame, Monterrey derrotó 3-0 a Real Salt Lake y le dio un poco de dignidad a lo que venían haciendo los equipos mexicanos en la Leagues Cup.
La efectividad del delantero argentino enamoró a los aficionados Rayados, pero al mismo tiempo dejó una profunda pregunta en sus bases: ¿es hora de empezar a despedirse de Rogelio Funes Mori?
Qué necesario es este tipo, por Dios.
WELLINGTON - The United States have yet to produce their best performance at the Women's World Cup, coach Vlatko Andonovski said on Thursday, after the Netherlands held them to a frustrating 1-1 draw in their second match of the tournament in Wellington.
Co-captain Lindsey Horan powered a terrific header into the net to level the affair in the second half and save the four-times champions from outright embarrassment after not putting up much of a fight early on in the match.
Netherlands’ women’s head coach Andries Jonker asked “what is left of the USWNT’s superiority” in soccer prior to his side’s 1-1 draw with the U.S on Thursday (Wednesday in the States).
It was an incredibly bold statement from Jonker who then failed to beat the team he said had lost its superiority.

En un giro inesperado, Mazatlán FC se ha convertido en el equipo que saca la cara por la Liga MX en la Leagues Cup. Luego de vencer al Austin FC de la MLS por 3-1, los Cañoneros igualaron con FC Juárez y vía penales aseguraron su paso a la segunda fase del torneo, siendo el primer equipo mexicano en conseguirlo en cancha.
DEL MAZATLÁN DESDE LA CUNA
PSV hosted second division side FC Eindhoven on Wednesday in a derby preseason friendly, and 20-year-old American striker Ricardo Pepi was on the scoresheet in a 3-1 victory, giving him two goals in two appearances since arriving from FC Augsburg on a five-year deal.
It was an emphatic finish from the Texan as he swept a right-footed effort inside the far post.
Monterrey dio el gran golpe del mercado luego de convencer a Sergio Canales que la Liga MX era el mejor lugar para continuar su carrera. Plenamente vigente, el seleccionado español decidió acabar su vínculo con el Real Betis, transformándose en uno de los fichajes más caros en la historia del fútbol mexicano.
¡Bienvenido a tu nueva casa, @SergioCanales!
Inter Miami are scoring goals. Yes, they have been doing it for a couple of years now, but since Lionel Messi's debut less than a week ago, the rest of the world has taken notice, too.
During this process, fans who are joining the bandwagon have also discovered that the club enjoys celebrating those goals by blasting the DRV PNK Stadium's speaker system with some highly divisive earworms.
I mean, you love them. Or you hate them.
The songs in question are two, and two very famous among Latino audiences:
Lionel Messi le regaló una nueva noche mágica al Inter Miami.
El fenómeno argentino inició su primer partido como titular para la franquicia de la MLS y mostró que su calidad es inconmensurable, anotando un doblete y registrando una asistencia en la goleada 4-0 sobre Atlanta United en la Leagues Cup.
At the end of the day, it's all about Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba (maybe Luis Suarez) turning around Inter Miami's season with 12 matches remaining and getting them from dead last in MLS to the playoffs.
In the meantime, they might just win the Leagues Cup.
