YAOUNDE — Achraf Hakimi curled in a long-range free kick as Morocco came from behind to beat Malawi 2-1 in the last-16 of the Africa Cup of Nations on Tuesday and stay on course for their first African title in over 45 years.
Varios puntos de sutura y algunos días sin fútbol serán el recuerdo que tendrá la defensa de Rayadas, Mariana Cadena, del brutal corte que sufrió en su pierna izquierda durante el duelo de la jornada 3 del Clausura 2022 ante el América.
La lesión de la zaguera de melena azul ocurrió en el minuto 48 mientras peleaba un balón con Scarlett Camberos.
En principio se pensó que la americanista había golpeado a Cadena, pero en las repeticiones pareciera ser que el feo agujero lo causó la propia Cadena, con sus tachones, al momento de barrerse.
It would've been an incredible story by itself: The Comoro Islands, ranked 132nd in the world and with a population under 900,000, making its first-ever Africa Cup of Nations appearance and advancing to the last 16 to play the host and five-time champion Cameroon, but the stage at Paul Biya Stadium in Olembé became a global spectacle Monday when it was confirmed that Comoros' backup left-back, Chaker Alhadhur, would play as a makeshift goalkeeper because of injuries and C

Looking for a favorite at the Africa Cup of Nations after the group stage, no team stood out quite like Nigeria — which won all three of its matches with Kelechi Iheanacho, Moses Simon and Samuel Chukwueze all shining in attack.
LONDON - Chelsea kept alive their remote Premier League title chances with a 2-0 win over London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, set on their way by an exquisite strike from Hakim Ziyech which was quickly followed up by a Thiago Silva header.
Ziyech scored one of the best goals of the season in the 47th minute when he received the ball on edge of the box after a surging run by Callum Hudson-Odoi, and the Moroccan's curling, dipping shot dropped into the top corner with Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris rooted to the spot.
Burkina Faso is the first nation through to the Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinals after a wild victory over Gabon that included a missed penalty in regular time, a red card, a 91st-minute equalizer for 10-man Gabon and a dramatic penalty shootout.
América no levanta cabeza y la palabra crisis es un murmullo que cada vez se vuelve más ruidoso en los pasillos del Estadio Azteca. Anoche, de local, las Águilas perdieron ante Atlas y sumaron su séptimo partido consecutivo sin ganar, poniendo el proceso de Santiago Solari en unidad de cuidados intensivos.
¡Ufff! El gol de Alexis Vega vs Querétaro, ¡ufff!
La estrella de Chivas convirtió un tiro libre de antología ante los Gallos Blancos y poco a poco comienza a construir fama como un maestro del balón detenido. Cierto, no da para compararlo con Juninho Pernambucano o Leo Messi, pero la clase de su pierna derecha ilusiona a los Chivahermanos, quienes empiezan a verlo como un digno sucesor de Benjamín Galindo y Ramón Morales.
