“So what Erling Haaland scored 62 goals in 67 Bundesliga games? Wait until he’s in the Premier League!” is what the doubters said. They didn’t believe his goal scoring tally would continue in the mighty EPL. Oh, how wrong they were.
Manchester City defeated Nottingham Forest 6-0 on Wednesday. Haaland scored a perfect hat trick in the first half, his second hat trick in the City’s last two games.
Malik Tillman has done it again. The 20-year-old attacking midfielder scored a headed goal for the second game in-a-row on Saturday during Rangers’ 4-0 victory vs. St. Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership.
In the 32nd minute Tillman scored the opener with a giant leap at the back post. With a height of 6 feet and 1 inch the kid is becoming quite the aerial threat.
Jordan Pefok has made his presence known with his new club Union Berlin. After scoring a bicycle kick in a DFB-Pokal match a week ago he opened his Bundesliga scoring account on Saturday during Union Berlin’s 3-1 victory in the Berlin derby vs. Hertha.
Pefok opened the scoring in the 31st minute with a nicely placed header at the near post. Last season’s Swiss Super League golden boot winner shows no signs of slowing his lust for goals.
San Diego Wave midfielder Taylor Kornieck had an unforgettable night on Saturday when made her USWNT debut and netted her first goal. The 23-year-old got on the end of a Megan Rapinoe free kick in the 90th minute and flicked it off her head to the far post to make it 3-0.
Ukraine advanced in the UEFA World Cup playoffs on Wednesday at the expense of Scotland with a 3-1 victory. Ukraine looked comfortable for a majority of the game, but a late push from Scotland made for an exhilarating finish. This John McGinn miss vs. Ukraine could have changed everything.
Un día, cuando seas viejito, podrás contarles a las futuras generaciones que tuviste el privilegio de ver jugar a Julián Quiñones en la Liga MX.
El jugador colombiano anda en nivel súper saijayin y ante Pachuca ayudó al Atlas a sacar una importante victoria por 2-0 en la primera final del Clausura 2022. Tan determinante ha sido su labor en los últimos duelos del equipo tapatío que ya no son pocos aquellos que empiezan a preguntarse si Quiñones es – o no – el mejor jugador en la historia de los rojinegros.
American stars Catarina Macario and Lindsey Horan became the fourth and fifth USWNT players to win the UEFA Champions League as Lyon defeated the seemingly unstoppable Barcelona 3-1 on Saturday in Turin.

Ni idea qué vitaminas esté tomando, pero Edson Álvarez volvió a anotar para el Ajax. Machín dijo presente en el empate 2-2 ante Vitesse – en el último partido de la temporada en la Eredivisie – y completó tres semanas marcando de manera consecutiva.
Ajax is a step closer to its 36th Eredivisie title after a last-gasp draw against AZ Alkmaar. The hero of the day was Mexican international Edson Álvarez, who scored a fantastic header when hopes and dreams seemed to be shattered.

The UEFA Women’s Champions League final is set as Barcelona will seek to defend its title against seven-time winners Lyon. For the first time in five years the final will have American representation with Lindsey Horan and Catarina Macario on Lyon.
