Mauricio Pochettino said he will take some time before deciding on his coaching future. SEATTLE — Mauricio Pochettino certainly sounds open to staying on as coach of the United States men’s national team, but said he will take time after Monday’s 4-1 loss to Belgium before making any final decisions. Pochettino, 54, signed a contract in the summer of 2024 that expires after this World Cup, but reportedly has an offer on the table to continue leading the USMNT through the 2030 World Cup. “We have built a good relationship,” Pochettino said of the United States Soccer Federation. “But now…

Mandatory Credit: Steven Bisig-Imagn Images In one of the more stunning moves in World Cup history, FIFA restored Folarin Balogun’s eligibility for the United States’ round of 16 clash with Belgium less than 36 hours before the Monday night kickoff in Seattle. Shame he’s not a defender. While the whole American sporting public — including the president, apparently — fixated on the one-game suspension of a striker most hadn’t…

Mandatory Credit: Blake Dahlin-Imagn Images SEATTLE — U.S. men’s national team star Christian Pulisic ended the team’s World Cup finale on the sideline after spraining his right ankle during the team’s 4-1 loss to Belgium in the round of 16 on Monday. With the U.S. trailing 2-1, Pulisic was lining up a shot at the edge of the 18-yard box in the 54th minute. Belgium’s Youri Tielemans stepped between the ball and Pulisic’s foot, leading to the American kicking Tielemans’ foot. After staying…

India have unveiled a 15-member squad for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Zimbabwe, with the tour set to begin on July 23 at the Harare Sports Club. The selection committee has opted for a fresh-looking group, making several changes to the squad currently involved in the T20I series against England. While Shreyas Iyer continues as captain and Tilak Varma being his deputy, the biggest talking point is the omission of Sanju Samson, who misses out despite starring in India’s victorious T20 World Cup 2026 campaign. All three matches of the series will be played in Harare as India look…

Se cumplen 10 años de la violación grupal conocida como el caso de La manada, que ha marcado un antes y un después en el tratamiento de la violencia sexual contra las mujeres. La brutalidad de aquella agresión, el contexto en el que se produjo, la rápida intervención de la administración en el auxilio a la víctima, y los intentos por desacreditar a la denunciante hicieron estallar un grito de indignación que dos años después desbordó las calles de toda España como reacción a una sentencia que dio el empujon definitivo a una nueva ola feminista histórica, que desembocó en…

Details about NHL legend Claude Lemieux’s will have been released following his death at age 60 in May. Court documents obtained by Us Weekly show that Claude left “all of [his] estate” to a trust initially set up alongside his wife, Deborah Lemieux, in September 2008 and last amended in 2021.

Claude specified that should Deborah “fail to qualify or cease to act” as administrator of his will, their children…

Seán William McLoughlin aka Jacksepticeye dropped an Avengers-level announcement on Instagram Saturday. He’s producing a Bloodborne animated movie with Sony Pictures. Yes, really. The post itself was short and completely unhinged. On his Instagram, Jacksepticeye wrote, “I am producing a Bloodborne Animated Movie with Sony Pictures. AHHHHH!” Four words of actual news. Several A’s of pure reaction energy. The caps-lock chaos was fully earned. Over 541,000 likes poured in fast. For a gaming creator, even a massive one, that kind of traction on a single post signals something beyond a standard fanbase surge. Bloodborne players aren’t just fans – they’re…

Soccer still has defenses against injustice. Or against the most blatant intrusion from political power into a World Cup that anyone can remember. On Monday evening in Seattle, Belgium earned on the pitch what the United States had also tried to secure from the White House: the Red Devils thrashed their opponents 4–1 and advanced to the quarter-finals of the 2026 World Cup, where they will face Spain this Friday in Los Angeles.Folarin Balogun, the U.S. striker reinstated at Donald Trump’s request and with FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s approval —in a move that broke with FIFA precedent — was on…

For the first and maybe only time, John Mozeliak will run the Angels’ draft and trade deadline this summer. The longtime Cardinals baseball operations leader signed on as interim GM with the Halos. He’s only signed through the end of 2026 and was brought in to oversee the club’s search for a new general manager. Mozeliak temporarily takes over the front office at a key time. The MLB draft is this weekend and there’s less than a month until the August 3 trade deadline. The Angels are riding a six-game losing streak that currently has them as the worst team…
