La leyenda de Guillermo Ochoa en los mundiales escribió hoy un nuevo capítulo de gloria. El arquero mexicano fue figura fundamental en el 0-0 del Tri ante Polonia atajándole un penal a Robert Lewandowski.

Sí, leíste bien: Ochoa atajó un penal. Y lo hizo ante un goleador en serie como lo es el polaco.

Memo Ochoa ataja penal a Lewandowski

En Liga MX, Ochoa es una figura polarizante. Y así como tiene un ejército de seguidores que lo ama, también existe uno que no se cansa de criticarlo, acusándolo de ser una coladera.

In recent times, very few international sides have disappointed their countrymen more consistently than Mexico and Poland, but when Saudi Arabia began Tuesday's World Cup Group C play with a shock 2-1 upset of Argentina, both nations were granted the opportunity to put one foot inside the last-16 by coming away with three points. All would be forgiven.

Saudi players were pumped up after Salem Al Dawsari scored the goal that stunned Argentina in their World Cup opener. So high was the rush that seconds after bagging the goal, defender Ali Al-Bulayhi went to Lionel Messi to taunt him.

As American soccer fans, we have waited over 8 years to represent the stars and stripes at the globe’s most famous tournament. The late night match on the second day of the tournament staged USA to play Wales at 10 p.m. local time in Doha.

Argentina's path to a third World Cup title got off to a disastrous start Tuesday after Saudi Arabia shocked the South American champions with a 2-1 upset that sent Lionel Messi and La Albiceleste hurtling back into traumatic memories of Iceland, Croatia, France and Chile. 

Since the 2022 tournament kicked off, many viewers have found themselves wondering, “Why is the World Cup stoppage time so much higher than normal?” The United States was given eleven minutes of stoppage time against Wales, while England and Iran played an additional 15 minutes in the first half and then a further 14 minutes at the end of the full 90. 

Pasó lo que nadie imaginaba que pasaría. Arabia Saudita dio la primera gran sorpresa del Mundial luego de derrotar 2-1 a una Argentina que llegó a Catar como candidata al título y con una impresionante racha de 36 partidos internacionales invicta.

Repetimos, no es una broma.

El resultado – no está demás decir– le agrega una dosis extra de pimienta al Grupo C, que es también el de Polonia y México.

Argentina, ranked third in the FIFA Rankings and a trendy pick to win the World Cup, has suffered one of the greatest upsets in tournament history after Saudi Arabia, ranked 51st and expected to finish fourth in Group C, went toe-to-toe with the South American giant and prevailed 2-1. 

The match had presented Argentina with a chance at equaling Italy's international record of 37 games unbeaten, but that streak is over and more importantly, La Albiceleste are in serious trouble with Mexico (Nov. 26) and Poland (Nov. 30) up next.
