20 Best Goals from the African Cup of Nations

There’s lots to admire at an international football tournament. Clever technical play. Smart possession-based football. Astute defending. Yet nothing quite sums up a football tournament—defines it, even—than the goals that were scored.

USMNT: Why MLS Has Made World Cup Qualifying More Difficult for the USMNT

The United States Men’s National Team’s 2-1 loss to Honduras reduced its chances to qualify for the 2014 World Cup by 8.9 percent (per ESPN’s Paul Carr).

Rafael Nadal: Positive Return to Court Should Scare Rest of ATP Tour

Winning at the VTR Open in Chile is not quite the same as winning a Grand Slam. However, Rafael Nadal‘s return should be intimidating for the rest of the world. In his first tournament since Wimbledon, the Spanish star has played very well.

Mexico vs. Jamaica: El Tri Need to Solve Striker Issues Before World Cup 2014

Jose Manuel de la Torre needs to figure out what he’s doing at striker as Mexico looks to qualify for the 2014 World Cup. El Tri have often used more of a 4-2-3-1 system, like most national teams, and been very successful with it.

Honduras vs. USA: Jurgen Klinsmann’s Struggles Shouldn’t Surprise USMNT Fans

It’s not time to push the panic button for the United States Men’s National Team. After producing uninspiring results in the third round of 2014 World Cup qualifying, the U.S. started out the fourth round with a 2-1 loss to Honduras in San Pedro Sula.
