Nicolas Jackson picks up assist in Senegal defeat; Enzo excels again as Argentina win Group J
Senegal crashed to yet another mistake-filled defeat, 3-2 to Norway, giving up three goals once again just like in their first game to leave their World Cup fates hanging in the balance. They’ll need a win against Iraq in the final game just to have a chance of finishing among the better third-place teams, and […]
Como 1907 ‘interested’ in Trevoh Chalobah — report
Fabrizio Romano reports that Serie A darlings Como 1907 are “interested” in Trevoh Chalobah, evidently looking to improve their squad ahead of their inaugural Champions League campaign next season. Of course, “interest” alone means very little in the world of transfers, especially with Romano adding that there is a “big gap in valuation at this […]
2026 World Cup, Day 12: Argentina vs. Austria; France vs. Iraq; Norway vs. Senegal; Jordan vs. Algeria
This World Cup is shaping up to be a truly memorable tournament as it keeps serving up history with the likes of Cape Verde and Curaçao … but also with the likes of Egypt, for example, getting their first ever win at a World Cup. Mo Salah’s finally got himself a World Cup goal in […]

Serious Wow Well
2026 World Cup, Day 11: Spain vs. Saudi Arabia; Belgium vs. Iran; Uruguay vs. Cape Verde; New Zealand vs. Egypt
Saturday saw a couple lopsided scorelines, with Japan turning on the style against Tunisia in the late game and Sweden experiencing the full spectrum of The Graham Potter Experience, following-up a 5-1 win with a 5-1 defeat. So both the Netherlands and Japan are back on track, level on three points with Sweden in the […]

2026 World Cup, Day 10: Netherlands vs. Sweden; Germany vs. Côte d’Ivoire; Ecuador vs. Curaçao; Tunisia vs. Japan
Friday’s USA vs. Australia match in Seattle was one of the most spectacular sporting events I’ve ever had the privilege to attend. From the hours-long buildup along the waterfront and all through the downtown and Belltown areas — in absolutely perfect weather — to the national anthems, to the epic flyover, to the US putting […]

Official: West Bromwich Albion sign Jimmy-Jay Morgan from Chelsea
Chelsea youngster Jimmy-Jay Morgan has completed a move to West Bromwich Albion today, signing a four-year contract with the Championship outfit. West Brom are reportedly paying £4m to make the transfer happen, which includes a “substantial” sell-on clause as well. Morgan rejoined Chelsea in 2023 after spending six years in the Southampton academy. The young […]
Premier League 2026-27 fixtures: West London Derby, away on opening day!
Amid a serious case of World Cup fever (and following yet another disappointing Chelsea season), I completely forgot that the fixtures for the new Premier League season would get announced this morning. But if there’s ever a time to be hopeful, it’s the summer, so let’s see what awaits Xabi Alonso (and how far down […]
2026 World Cup, Day 9: USA vs. Australia; Scotland vs. Morocco; Brazil vs. Haiti; Turkey vs. Paraguay
I spent nearly the entire day yesterday (Thursday) traveling up to Seattle, in order to catch a clinical dose of World Cup fever in person as the US took on Australia in the iconic stadium of the Seattle Seahawks (whatever the name of it may be temporarily). I’m quite excited, even if I would prefer […]

2026 World Cup, Day 8: Czech Republic vs. South Africa; Switzerland vs. Bosnia & Herzegovina; Canada vs. Qatar; Mexico vs. South Korea
Well, we’ve finally had our first stinker of this World Cup. Ghana and Panama did a whole lot of running about but neither side managed to do anything signifcantly entertaining … until about the last few minutes plus stoppage time, when Ghana snatched the win and all three points! England and Colombia both picked up […]
England beat Croatia; Pedro Neto sets up goal in Portugal draw
England’s World Cup is off to a promising start: their second-half performance against a quality Croatia side an especially encouraging display in what was eventually a 4-2 win. Both teams found the back of the net twice in the first 45, but England needed a bit of luck for their goals (especially after Harry Kane […]
Mbappé & Haaland & Messi, oh my!
Day six belonged to the stars. The biggest stars. The brightest stars, on the greatest stage. Kylian Mbappé. Erling Haaland. Lionel Messi. Between them, seven goals combined. Wins for France, Norway, and Argentina. Fans losing their minds; opponents staring blankly into the middle distance, forlorn in their inevitable defeat. Mbappé got the part started in […]
2026 World Cup, Day 7: Portugal vs. DR Congo; England vs. Croatia; Ghana vs. Panama; Uzbekistan vs. Colombia
It’s the end of the first week of the 2026 World Cup, and so far, it’s been great fun. Eight more teams are yet to play their first games, so they are up today, including Thomas Tuchel’s England. Here we go! PORTUGAL vs. DR CONGO Second World Cup for the Democratic Republic of Congo, and […]

Talks Details Agreement
Nicolas Jackson denied by post, flag as France overcome Senegal, 3-1
Billed as one of the biggest games of the group stage, France and Senegal certainly tried their best to live up to that expectation as they matched wits in the afternoon sunshine of East Rutherford, NJ, with the favorites holding form and emerging as 3-1 winners in the end. But that scoreline alone hardly does […]
Trevoh Chalobah called up to England as injury replacement
Trevoh Chalobah is going to the World Cup! Our reliable defender has gotten the call from Thomas Tuchel, just ahead of the emergency squad change deadline (24 hours before a team’s first game), after former Chelsea prospect Tino Livramento suffered a calf injury in training over the weekend. Chalobah’s now on his way to England’s […]

2026 World Cup, Day 6: France vs. Senegal; Iraq vs. Norway; Argentina vs. Algeria; Austria vs. Jordan
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the first few days of this World Cup, contrary to my own expectations. The crowds have been lively, the games have been fun, and the fever is catching all around this vast country. It’s early days still, barely halfway through the first set of group stage games, but so far … so […]
Not all heroes wear Cape Verdes
Monday belonged to the draws: 0-0, 1-1, 1-1, 2-2. At first glance, that may not look very appealing. Few things are more un-American than a draw (a tie, if you will). It’s like kissing your sister, as the oldtimers’ joke goes. And yet, we were entertained. Ironically, it was the one without any goals at […]
Official: Real Madrid sign Marc Cucurella from Chelsea
Despite a “positive first talk” between Marc Cucurella and new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso, the former didn’t feel like staying in Stamford Bridge in a season where the Blues failed to fetch a spot in an European competition. The Spanish left-back joins Real Madrid, Alonso’s former club, in their first landmark signing post-re-signing José Mourinho. […]
