    The 2026 FIFA World Cup has the potential to be the greatest sporting event ever. But if Gianni Infantino fails to take a stand for what’s right, this World Cup will forever be tarred with the Trump administration’s racist policies. My @firstpost debut: firstpost.com/sports/footbal…

    US Soccer will never be a successful program as long as they continue to ignore the nation’s most talented players and prioritize the players whose parents can afford travel fees, tournament registration, summer camps and everything else involved in the sham that is youth soccer.

    Juan Mata spent 8 years at Manchester United and 2.5 years at Chelsea. Feels like it's the other way around for some reason.

    Just a reminder that Everton immediately suspended their record signing Gylfi Sigurdsson after his allegations surfaced. He wasn’t even charged, but he never played for Everton again. Compare that to how Arsenal have treated Thomas Partey…it’s night and day.

    One thing about PSG: they’re going to destroy you, but they’ll keep it respectable. After 4 or 5 goals, they’ll take their foot off the gas. If this was Bayern, they’d be keeping all of their starters in the game and trying to make it 9-0 😂

    Hector Bellerín: “The war in Palestine was completely ignored, no one talked about it. In Yemen, in Iraq too. Russia was excluded from the World Cup… And yet other countries did the same than Russia for many, many years."

    Glad to see Joe Biden finally admitting that his body and mind have been devastated by Father Time and that he can’t risk sacrificing the future of the nation any longer. A certain Portuguese forward on Al-Nassr should take note.

    I’ve seen players get scolded by their own supporters after a heavy loss, but Cagliari’s Flamingo mascot being subject to this dressing-down after a 4-0 loss to Napoli has absolutely finished me

    All of this to stop a 36-year-old Burak Yilmaz. I don’t agree but I understand.
