MLS: Play-offs set as Galaxy miss out to RSL in dramatic finale, Red Bulls extend streak and Wondolo
The 2021 MLS Cup play-offs are set following a wild final round of the regular season which saw LA Galaxy dramatically eliminated from the post-season picture by Real Salt Lake.
Javier Chicharito Hernandez scored twice for the Galaxy in a 3-3 draw with Minnesota United on Decision Day, but RSL s last-gasp 1-0 win over Sporting Kansas City changed the landscape of the Western Conference.

Juventus
Starting with the hosts, picking up a 2-0 win away at Bologna on Monday night, Juventus are a side still fully trying to recover from last week s Coppa Italia heartbreak. Watching Napoli lift the cup thanks to a penalties win at the Stadio Olimpico, the Old Lady have shown some worrying inconsistencies either side of the enforced break. Along with having to hunt down a deficit after a shock 1-0 loss away at French outfit Lyon while on Champions League duties, Maurizio Sarri s men have won just two of …

Manchester United are relying on Cristiano Ronaldo to save them in every game and should have replaced Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with Antonio Conte, according to sprint king and Red Devils fan Usain Bolt.
The pressure is growing on Solskjaer following a disappointing start to the campaign, with United winning just seven of their opening 16 games in all competitions.
Solskjaer s side have been soundly beaten 5-0 by rivals Liverpool and 2-0 by Manchester City in their last two home Premier League matches and are sixth with 11 games played.
Conte was touted as a contender to replace Solskjaer after the Liverpool loss, but he has since taken over at top-flight rivals Tottenham as Nuno Espirito Santo s successor.
Bolt, a life-long United supporter, believes the clu…

The list of exhibitors for the upcoming Tokyo Game Show 2024, set for September 26th to 29th, has been officially revealed. Many companies in the General Exhibition Area will look familiar, from Bandai Namco Entertainment and Capcom to Nexon, SNKSports Betting and Square Enix. However, it also includes Sony Interactive Entertainment.
The publisher last held a general exhibit at the show in 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted trade expos and events worldwide from 2020 onwards, but last year marked the return of the Tokyo Game Show as a full physical exhibition. The question is why Sony decided to have a general exhibit this year. Perhaps it will tease some of its upcoming releases for 2025, like Kojima Productions…
In June, in addition to raising Game Pass prices again, Microsoft announced that it was also discontinuing the base console tier of the subscription service for new members, and that the tier would be replaced with the new Xbox Game Pass Standard down the road. That new base tier has now released.
Microsoft has announced that Xbox Game Pass Standard is now available for subscribers on consoles, and is priced at $14.99 per month. Standard will include all the benefits of Game Pass Core (i.e. online multiplayer access), in addition to Game Pass’ library of hundreds of titles, both first- and third-party.
As previously announced, however, Xbox Game Pass Standard will not include day one releases, so if that’s something you’re looking for as a new su…
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom’s Placement in the Zelda Timeline Has Been Officially Revealed
Many have given up trying to make sense of the Zelda timeline at this point, not least because the series itself has made it clear by now that the larger timeline isn’t something that the developers put a lot of thought into. Even so, Nintendo continues to maintain at least some semblance of consistency where the timeline is concerned, and has now officially revealed what the recently-released The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom’s place in it is.
As many guessed based on the game’s setting, story, and art style, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is officially set in the “Hero is Defeat” timeline. Also known as the Fallen Hero timeline, it is an alternate version of events that follows from Link being de…
Jurgen Klopp’s winning run against former club Mainz ended as Shinji Okazaki and Jairo starred to condemn Borussia Dortmund to a 2-0 defeat.
Dortmund had won the last six against their coach s previous employers, but they succumbed to a first defeat at the Coface Arena since Klopp s initial return in April 2010.
The visitors dominated Saturday s opening hour, before Jairo created the opener for Okazaki, the Japan striker scoring a sixth goal in seven games this season, in what was his 100th Bundesliga appearance.
Then, after Loris Karius had saved a Ciro Immobile penalty, Jairo was again the architect as Matthias Ginter put through his own net to make sure of the points, which lifted Mainz to second in the table.
Klopp, a Mainz legend as both player and…
Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes has expressed his desire to return to PSV.
The Brazilian shot-stopper, who watched the club s 2-0 Eredivisie win over VVV on Saturday, wore the Eindhoven side s jersey from 2004 until 2008 before leaving the club for north London.
However, Gomes has lost his starting berth at the Premier League side in the 2011/12 campaign and is keen to return to the club where he kick-started his European career.
If it s up to me, I would return to PSV right now. However, I m not the one calling the shots. It all depends on what Tottenham and PSV want, Gomes stated to ANP.
Nevertheless, PSV sporting director Marcel Brands has stressed that a transfer is unlikely at this point.
Gomes is incredibly popular with the fa…
