West Ham United have received a warning despite their emphatic 6-0 win over Wrexham, with former Championship striker Bradley Allen urging caution before winter. The comments, originally broadcast by BBC Radio London and covered by Inside Futbol, followed a performance that gave Nuno Espírito Santo's side a boost in the promotion race.
Six players scored, including captain Jarrod Bowen and Joel Piroe, while West Ham created 19 shots on goal and kept a clean sheet. Allen described the display as outstanding from start to finish and said West Ham possessed too much quality for Wrexham. Yet he stressed that bigger tests await, particularly as the winter schedule stacks fixtures together. His message was: West Ham can leave the Championship quickly, but the examination has not arrived.
Allen said on BBC Radio London: "What a performance, outstanding from start to finish, a clean sheet as well.
"Playing dominant football in front of a big crowd.
"That will put down a marker, but there will be bigger tests; we haven't got to the depths of winter.

The future of Neymar after the end of his contract with Santos has once again stirred up the soccer market. The Brazilian attacker is tied to the São Paulo club until December 31, 2026, and a potential departure at the end of the commitment is already generating speculation about possible destinations. Among them, Inter Miami appears as one of the alternatives that draws the most attention.
The possibility of Neymar defending the Florida club gains strength mainly due to the sporting and commercial aspect. If the transfer were to actually happen, world soccer could once again witness the formation of the historic MSN trio, which made history at Barcelona with Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, and Neymar.
Despite the repercussions of the hypothesis, it is essential to highlight that there is no confirmed agreement between Neymar and Inter Miami, nor an officially announced negotiation between the parties. For now, it is just a possibility related to the player's future scenario.
Neymar renewed his contract with Santos at the beginning of 2026. The new bond was signed until the end of the year, guaranteeing the permanence of the number 10 during the season.

Few television shows have shaped how Americans see a sport the way "Ted Lasso" did for soccer. The relentlessly optimistic former D2 football coach (football, not soccer) from Kansas City, hired to sabotage an English club by its owner's socialite ex-wife, somehow turned football (soccer) into a cultural phenomenon during the pandemic, introducing millions of viewers who had never watched a soccer game to rivalries, fandom and rituals.
It made them BELIEVE futbol is life.
When the series ended two years ago with AFC Richmond earning promotion to the Premier League, it felt like a fitting conclusion, not only for Ted but also for the audience. Three seasons had delivered a reminder of why people fall in love with the beautiful game.
Now the series returns with an even more ambitious challenge. Rather than taking audiences back to men's football, it turns its attention to the women's game. But unlike in 2020, when it helped introduce millions to soccer, the women's game no longer needs a television show to explain why it matters. The question is whether the series can capture women's soccer's evolution.
2020 was a strange year. As I was sending cancellation notes for my own wedding during the pandemic, I found myself becoming increasingly invested in Ted (played by Jason Sudeikis), Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham) and AFC Richmond. By the final episode, I had become a pseudo-supporter of the imaginary club, embracing their underdog story. As a sports journalist, that's a rare feeling. I spend my career covering real clubs, not fictional ones. Yet "Ted Lasso" managed to make soccer feel personal again. If it could do that to someone who already covered the sport, it's easy to understand why millions of newcomers found themselves watching the Premier League after the credits rolled three years later.

NEW YORK (AP) — Djordje Mihailovic scored in the final minute of first-half stoppage time and Toronto FC earned a 1-1 draw with New York City FC at Yankee Stadium on Friday night, but saw its winless streak reach 11 matches.
Nicolás Fernández scored on a penalty kick in the 9th minute to give NYCFC (7-6-5) an early lead.
The kick was awarded when Toronto (3-7-8) defender Richie Laryea picked up a yellow card for a foul on Agustín Ojeda.
It was the 13th goal for Fernández, tying him with Petar Musa of FC Dallas for the league lead. Hugo Cuypers also had 13 goals before transferring from the Chicago Fire to Club de Fútbol Monterrey.
Toronto tied it at the half when Mihailovic scored off a deflection seven minutes into stoppage time. Mihailovic has two goals in eight appearances this season.

Robert Lewandowski didn't score in his Major League Soccer debut with the Chicago Fire, but he did get a first-hand look at a very MLS moment.
That fútbol follies moment came courtesy of Inter Miami goalkeeper Rocco Ríos Novo, who whiffed on a back pass from defender Ian Fray and the ball went into the back of his own net for an embarrassing own goal in the 18th minute.

The United States' wild and often-unpredictable domestic league was back in full action on Wednesday, July 22, and to be fair, many of these athletes haven't played in a game in seven weeks, so there's bound to be some rust. Still, this looked very much like some ill-fated schoolyard kid trying their luck at kickball for the first time.

'Futbol is life': Dani Rojas actor makes pro soccer debut for USL club to fulfill lifelong dream originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Dani Rojas is a beloved character from the popular series Ted Lasso.
The joyful character is played by actor Cristo Fernandez, and he's known for shouting, "Futbol is life!"
It really is life for Fernandez right now.
This weekend, he made his professional soccer debut in a league match in a USL Cup game in the second-tier of soccer in the United States.

Fútbol became real life for Cristo Fernández on Saturday night.
The "Ted Lasso" actor went from the fictional pitch for AFC Richmond to taking the field for El Paso Locomotive FC of the United Soccer League. Facing New Mexico United, Fernández entered the game as a substitute for Rubio Rubín in the 79th minute of the Locomotive's 2-0 defeat in a USL Cup match.
El Paso and New Mexico were in a scoreless tie until the 85th minute when Joseph Quiah scored in the left corner for United. Zico Bailey found the net four minutes later on a cross from Jake LaCava for a 2-0 lead. Attendance for the match was announced at 5,011.
Locomotive FC announced on Wednesday that Fernández was added to the club's 18-man matchday roster for a home game at Southwest University Park versus New Mexico.
"Yes, it's really him," Locomotive FC included in Fernández's bio on the club's website.

There's an old saying in the world of fútbol: "The World Cup truly begins when the bulls—t takes flight." Well, it's about 10 seconds old, considering I just made it up. But we're here in the midst of the World Cup, and man, is the b.s. flying around the Americans now. Question is, what are we going to do about it?
You know the story. Midway through the second half of the USMNT's knockout-round match over Bosnia and Herzegovina, the great Folarin Balogun — who had already put two shots in the net, one of which actually counted — collided with Tarik Muharemović during a natural, if aggressive, run of play.
Referee Raphael Claus initially decided to let the lads play, but a voice in his ear sent him to the VAR monitor, where slow-motion video showed Balogun stepping on Muharemović’s ankle. Intent, apparently, was not the issue, only the end result was. Thus a declaration came down from on high: red card for Balogun, meaning he was out for the rest of this match and all of the next.
This, to put it politely, did not land well with the American audience. From a pure gameplay standpoint, the red card seemed an absurd overreaction to what was, by all appearances, a standard, though violent, instant of impact on the pitch. When Claus didn't even deign to throw a yellow in the moment, that should have been the first indication that this foul, while undoubtedly painful, didn't rise to the level of a potential World Cup-altering red card.
Any fan base would have felt the same. But we Americans, though — we take this stuff to a whole new level, and we have ever since we declared our independence. (Happy 250th, by the way, America.)

Cristo Fernández, the Ted Lasso actor and newest El Paso Locomotive player , was in California on Sunday, June 28, to do the coin toss for the South Africa and Canada match. The Round of 32 match was played at SoFi Stadium.
For the first time, the Coca-Cola FIFA World Cup Coin Toss ****** istants are expanding beyond their traditional role, with select influential voices from across North America stepping onto the pitch.
For Fernández, the moment was more than a cameo in the grand World Cup stage.
"Fútbol has taken me from Guadalajara to places I never imagined and introduced me to incredible people along the way," Fernández said in a news release. "Being part of a moment as special as the FIFA World Cup 26 feels like a dream come true.
"After a year of chasing a loco dream and returning to professional fútbol, I've been reminded that the biggest rewards often come from taking the biggest chances. The passion, joy and sense of community that fútbol creates are unlike anything else, and I'm grateful to celebrate the game with Coca-Cola and fans from around the world. Porque al final del día, fútbol es vida."

The group stages of the 2026 World Cup are now complete and the 48 teams that started the tournament have been whittled down to 32.

Millions know Cristo Fernández as Dani Rojas, the relentlessly cheerful soccer star whose "fútbol is life" mantra became one of Ted Lasso's most beloved catchphrases. But long before he was playing a soccer star on television, Fernández was chasing that dream for real.
Now, as the World Cup brings the sport to America's doorstep, he's getting a second chance to prove that those two versions of himself were never all that different.
The actor, who won over audiences as AFC Richmond's infectiously upbeat striker, is currently in El Paso, Texas, where he's training with USL Championship club El Paso Locomotive FC. Although he's still waiting for his sports visa to be finalized, it's a full-circle moment for Fernández, who grew up playing fútbol in Mexico before acting unexpectedly changed the course of his life.
And while plenty of people still stop him to shout Dani Rojas's signature line, he says he'll never get tired of hearing it.
"'Fútbol is life,' Dani Rojas and Ted Lasso were something very positive for people, and it gave them life in some dark times," Fernández tells Yahoo. "I take that energy. I'm grateful. It means a lot to me that my work meant so much for so many people."

The Girona FC Foundation completed a new participation this weekend in the Liga Genuine, held at the Ciudad del Fútbol de Las Rozas, in an event that once again highlighted sports as a tool for inclusion, overcoming challenges, and camaraderie.

Getafe CF 2 – Girona FC Foundation 2
Girona FC Foundation 0 – Cádiz CF 2
Girona FC Foundation 1 – RCD Espanyol Specials 2

Jun. 20—AIKEN — On June 19, local kids and their families were able to witness the United States Men's National Soccer Team defeat Australia 2-0 in the 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage match during a watch party on the University of South Carolina Aiken's campus.
The U16/U17 Boys and Girls Aiken Futbol Club (AFC) teams were hosting the event, which brought in lifelong soccer fans and several dipping their toes into the sport.
"The World Cup is an opportunity every four years to bring nations together. It unites people from different backgrounds, it brings different cultures and experiences together through one united language, the language of soccer," said Terrence Charles, head coach for the U16/U17 Boys AFC team.
"Outside of being a soccer player, I think it's important to be able to cheer on your country, to have something to root for, especially in something this big. And it's exciting that it's here in the United States," added Kinsie Mitchell, head coach for the girls U17 AFC team and ******* istant women's soccer coach for USCA.
Two young fans spoke during the game's halftime about what got them interested in soccer and what it was like for them to watch the U.S. compete.

Thousands of soccer fans packed into Centennial Olympic Park to watch the U.S. Men’s National Team take on Australia on Friday.
So many fans arrived, the event reached capacity and gates were temporarily closed. But the gates reopened about 30 minutes later.
Channel 2’s Bryan Mims was in the middle of the FIFA Fan Fest, where most fans there were rooting for the U.S., but not everyone.
The red-white-and-blue pride spilled out of fans of all sizes.
While the U.S. Men’s National Team was playing far away in Seattle, being here, among all these pumped-up futbol fans, the game on the big screen felt up close and personal.
