Sin problemas Sinner pasa a la siguiente ronda en Australia

Sinner smoothly moves on to the next round in Australia

The path of the ATP tennis number 1 continues its course in the Australia Open, as Jannik Sinner defeated in the third round the American tennis player Marcos Giron in three sets, by a score of 6-3, 6-4 and 6-2. Although the Italian had initial problems with his serves, where he also had 37 unforced errors, this did not end up weighing on the scoreboard, as the great quality of Sinner overcame that of his rival. Now, Sinner will have a tough test in the fourth round of the Australia Open, the round of 16 of the competition, as he will face Denmark’s Holger Rune, currently ranked number 13 and former member of the Top 10 last year. These two tennis players have faced each other on four occasions, having draws in victories, with 2 for Sinner and 2 for Rune, although the last two occasions that they faced each other, meant victories for the current No. 1.

Tendremos Haaland para rato en el City

Haaland to Stay at City for Years to Come

Erling Haaland and Manchester City have reached a historic agreement, with the footballer signing a new contract to remain at the club until 2034. Manchester City and Norwegian striker Erling Haaland have agreed to a groundbreaking new contract, securing the “Android” as part of the Citizens for another nine and a half years, until 2034. Prior to this agreement, Haaland’s contract was set to expire in 2027. With this deal, City has ensured that one of football’s current stars will stay with the team for the long term. Haaland Will Be Among the Highest Paid Although the Manchester club did not disclose the financial terms of the new nine-year deal, it is estimated to be an enormous sum due to the lengthy duration of the contract. When Haaland joined Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund, the English club paid €60 million for him, even though his market value at the time was €150 million. Given Haaland’s stellar performance as the Cityzen forward, it’s reasonable to assume that the new figures are equal to or likely exceed the previous ones. Haaland’s decision wasn’t solely driven by the lucrative salary he will enjoy for nearly the next decade but also by his deep affection for the club. After signing the contract, the Norwegian expressed his happiness, pride, and eagerness to stay with the team for many more years. “It was an easy decision,” Haaland said. A Player Worth Every Penny While the cost may seem exorbitant, it’s clear that Manchester City was willing to invest heavily to retain their star striker. Since joining City, Erling Haaland has scored an incredible 111 goals in 126 matches. He has won the Premier League Golden Boot twice and has contributed to City’s triumphs in two Premier League titles, one Champions League, one FA Cup, one UEFA Super Cup, and one Club World Cup.

Por el primer lugar a la final de la AFC

Battling for the Top Spot in the AFC Final

The Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans will kick off the Divisional Round of the playoffs. The wait is over. The 2025 NFL Divisional Round playoffs begin today with a matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans. GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium will host a game that promises to be a thrilling showdown to determine the first team to qualify for the AFC Championship. The Chiefs Must Prove What They’re Capable Of Statistics favor the Chiefs as the favorites to win this game. With the No. 1 seed in the AFC, earned through their impressive 15-2 record, Kansas City enters the game with a strong resume. However, during the regular season, there were more than a few games where last-minute miracles were needed to save the Chiefs. Now, after a week of rest and with a must-win game ahead, the Chiefs must prove that their 15-win season wasn’t just an illusion or a stroke of luck. As the reigning champions, they’re vying for a three-peat and their third consecutive Super Bowl victory in Super Bowl LIX. The Texans Will Need to Play a Perfect Game While the Chiefs didn’t often blow out their opponents with lopsided scores, the Texans must remain wary of the individual quality Kansas City possesses. When these stars come together, they’re nearly unstoppable. To beat the Chiefs, Houston will need to deliver a flawless performance. One advantage Houston might have is their preparation and momentum following their Wild Card victory against the Chargers. The Texans showed great form in that game, although the final score was influenced by several costly mistakes from Los Angeles. As such, Houston cannot afford to be overconfident. Chiefs Lead the Historical Record With a 10-8 advantage over the Texans, Kansas City also has history on their side. Houston hasn’t beaten the Chiefs since 2019. Their most recent matchups in 2020, 2022, and 2024 all ended in victories for Kansas City. The last encounter between these two franchises took place less than a month ago, on December 21, 2024, when Kansas City defeated Houston 27-19.

La racha ganadora de Chivas duró una jornada

Chivas’ Winning Streak Lasted Just One Match

Necaxa surprised the Rebaño Sagrado, coming from behind to win at home and hand Chivas their first defeat of the Clausura 2025. As Matchday 2 of the Clausura 2025 arrived, it seemed that Chivas de Guadalajara had a chance to continue their strong start after last week’s victory against Santos. With their visit to Necaxa, a team that debuted with a loss against Pumas, Chivas looked poised to secure another three points. However, the result ended up being quite the opposite. Chivas Took the Lead After a goalless first half at the Estadio Victoria, which saw good chances from both sides, fans had to wait until the second half to witness the first goal. Guadalajara opened the scoring in the 51st minute. Following a set-piece play from a corner kick, a secondary cross from the Rebaño Sagrado caused the ball to land near a Necaxa defender. However, Gilberto Sepúlveda anticipated the attempted clearance, sliding in to connect with the ball and push it over the goal line for the 0-1. Necaxa Shattered Chivas’ Hopes It seemed that the Rojiblancos, wearing dark blue as the visiting team, were on their way to a second consecutive win. However, Necaxa responded in the 62nd minute. José Paradela delivered an excellent cross, and Pavel Pérez headed it down into the net to make it 1-1. The home team gained momentum after their equalizer and began to trouble the visitors with dangerous plays. In the 77th minute, Agustín Palavecino sent a precise through ball to the left edge of the box. There, Kevin Rosero got behind the defense and delivered a cross that Tomás Badolini finished with a well-executed sliding effort. The Guadalajara defense was overwhelmed by the speed of Necaxa’s attack and couldn’t prevent the 2-1. In the 87th minute, Necaxa kept up the pressure. Following a well-rehearsed corner kick, the ball bounced around the penalty spot before falling to Ricardo Monreal. With his back to goal, Monreal showed excellent technical skill. He trapped the ball with his right foot, moved it behind him to his left, and fired a left-footed shot into the near post to make it 3-1. Chivas’ Response Came Too Late Chivas’ attempt to level the score came far too late. In the 90+8th minute, “Piojo” Alvarado converted a penalty awarded for a handball in the box. Unfortunately for the Chiverío, it wasn’t enough to avoid their first loss of the tournament, falling 3-2.

Por poco el Real Madrid queda fuera de la Copa del Rey

Real Madrid Narrowly Escapes Elimination from the Copa del Rey

Real Madrid squandered a two-goal lead and ended up needing extra time to salvage a game that was slipping through their fingers. What seemed like a straightforward match for Real Madrid turned into a nail-biter in the final minutes against Celta Vigo in the Round of 16 of the Copa del Rey. The Merengues came dangerously close to being eliminated and had to rely on extra time to seal the victory. Real Madrid Dominated for Most of the Match The game at the Santiago Bernabéu unfolded favorably for the home team. For 80 minutes, the Galácticos controlled the match, although early on, controversy arose in the Madrid penalty area. Williot Swedberg made a deep run into the box, with Lunin rushing out to intervene. Swedberg pushed the ball forward, and the Madrid goalkeeper made slight contact with the attacker’s foot with his glove, causing him to fall. However, neither the referee nor VAR deemed the play worthy of a penalty. Following this, Real Madrid’s dominance translated into the opening goal. Kylian Mbappé struck in the 37th minute after Dani Ceballos delivered a pass from near his own area to midfield. The Frenchman picked up the ball, drove down the left wing, entered the box, and unleashed a powerful near-post shot from a tight angle that rippled the net. In the second half, at the 48th minute, Mbappé set up Brahim Díaz from midfield. Díaz then sent a through ball to Vinícius, who connected with it near the penalty spot to score the 2-0. Madrid Collapsed in Just 10 Minutes While Real Madrid maintained control for much of the second half, even scoring another goal that was disallowed for offside, their troubles began in the 83rd minute. Celta Vigo launched an attack, and Jonathan Bamba capitalized on a cross from Pablo Durán, heading it into the net after poor defensive marking. Lunin was left rooted as the score became 2-1. Then, in stoppage time (90+1’), Marcos Alonso converted a penalty kick following a foul by Raúl Asencio on Bamba, leveling the game at 2-2. Madrid Sealed the Deal in Extra Time In extra time, Endrick came to the rescue for the hosts. In the 108th minute, he received a pass from Arda Güler at the edge of the box. The Brazilian turned masterfully and unleashed a curling shot to the far post, an unstoppable strike that made it 3-2. Shortly after, in the 112th minute, Federico Valverde scored another stunner. After receiving a deflected ball from a corner kick, the Uruguayan fired a rocket from outside the box that found the top corner, extending the lead to 4-2. Finally, in the 119th minute, chaos in Celta’s defense during a corner allowed Endrick to receive the ball in the six-yard box. Though he fumbled with it briefly, the Brazilian improvised brilliantly, finishing with a backheel while facing away from goal to net his second of the match and secure a definitive 5-2 victory. Real Madrid narrowly avoided a humiliating exit from the Copa del Rey.
