Talent and discipline on two courts

Gilberto Mora has become one of the most relevant figures of the Mexican National Team during the 2026 World Cup. At only 17 years old, his performance on the field positions him as one of the greatest promises in national football.

The Xolos de Tijuana midfielder draws the attention of international clubs. He is preparing to make the leap to Europe once he comes of age.

But outside the spotlight, Mora leads a life similar to that of any teenager. His family prioritizes him continuing his academic training while developing his sports career.

He is currently in high school at the Cuauhtémoc Hank German School in Tijuana. After training led by Sebastián Abreu, he attends classes to stay up to date.

The footballer himself has mentioned that he dedicates about three hours a day to his studies. Adjust schedules when traveling for concentrations with your club or the Mexican National Team.

Mora receives classes in three languages, which expands his tools on and off the court. His educational commitment has been recognized by the institution, which on several occasions has publicly congratulated his sporting achievements.

The French National Team continues its firm path in the 2026 World Cup. It beat Paraguay by the slightest difference and secured its place in the quarterfinals.

Match key

Paraguay presented a defensive match. Their goal was to keep a clean sheet in their goal rather than looking for a goal. The strategy worked for 70 minutes against the most effective attack of the tournament, with 14 accumulated scores.

However, a foul inside the area led to a penalty. Kylian Mbappé executed correctly from the eleven steps and made the difference. With this goal, he reached seven goals in the competition, equaling Lionel Messi at the top of the scoring table.

Next rival

France is already preparing its quarterfinal match against Morocco. The match promises high intensity, as the African team seeks to continue its path to World Cup glory.

Official balance of the earthquakes in Venezuela

Ten days after the devastating earthquakes of June 24, the death toll reaches 2,954 and the injured total 16,592, according to a report from the Venezuelan authorities.

The seismic doublet – considered the most powerful in the last century in the country – has generated 942 aftershocks. So far, 190 structures have collapsed and 16,309 people have lost their homes, according to the official balance sheet.

The government reported that 6,462 people have been rescued. Although the passage of time reduces the chances of finding survivors, hope persists.

International response

More than 3,200 rescuers from various nations, along with their trained canine teams, arrived to support the search efforts. On Saturday, the acting president Delcy Rodríguez decorated several of them.

“The Venezuelan people will never forget the friendly hand that came to assist, that came to console, that came to accompany,” said Rodríguez during the farewell ceremony for the teams from the United Kingdom, Qatar, France, India, Barbados, Brazil and Argentina, prior to receiving the Heroes of Venezuela Medal.

According to the government, more than 140 nations contributed humanitarian aid or rescue teams.

The Venezuelan people “live in deep mourning,” but “there is still hope among relatives of finding people alive,” added the president in charge.
