The rumor is confirmed! Griezmann will play in the United States

It’s no longer a secret. What many whispered in the football corridors is now official. Antoine Griezmann has signed with Orlando City of the MLS. The French forward will put an end to his time at Atlético de Madrid at the end of this season, and then embark on his new American adventure.

“Once he finishes his ‘last dance’ this season with Atlético de Madrid, he will report to his new team.”

This move marks a complete turn in his career. After being a fundamental piece for Atlético, he is now looking for new challenges. His arrival in the United States is a huge media blow for the local league. Without a doubt, it will attract more spotlights and attention to North American soccer.

A goodbye that hurts in Madrid

His departure will leave an important void in the mattress team. The club is already looking for a way to cover this drop in level and talent. Fans are expectant, seeing how this delicate transition is handled.

The news has generated all kinds of reactions. From surprise to full support for the player’s decision. Many experts see this as a great opportunity for Griezmann to continue shining and writing his own story away from the big European spotlight.

It is the end of an era in Spain and the beginning of something new on the other side of the pond.

Croatia sealed its place in the round of 16 of the World Cup by beating Ghana 2-1. The match, played on Saturday at the Philadelphia Eagles stadium, left a historical mark: Luka Modric, at 40 years and 291 days old, became the oldest player to give an assist in the history of the tournament.

A triumph with a seal of experience

The Croatian midfielder took a corner kick that Nikola Vlašic headed home in the 83rd minute to spark the celebration. Before, Petar Sucic had opened the scoring at 31′ with a powerful shot from outside the area. Ghana temporarily tied the score thanks to Derrick Luckassen in the 73rd minute, but could not maintain the tie.

“I told him after the game: you play like you’re 20 years old,” Sucic declared. “He was incredible today. He is our leader, our best player.”

Modric played his 200th game with the Croatian team and was once again key. Their attendance broke the record that dated back to 1966. Vlašic also praised the captain:

“It seems as if he has gone back 10 years in time. One of the best performances I have seen from him with Croatia.”

Ghana, to the second round despite the defeat

Despite the result, Ghana advanced to the knockout phase for the first time since 2010. Coach Carlos Queiroz lamented the defensive error that cost him the winning goal:

“Two easy goals. When you score one more than your opponent, it means you deserve to win.”

Croatia finished second in Group L, only behind England. Ghana came third. Modric, winner of the Ballon d’Or in 2018, continues to be the soul of the ‘Vatreni’ at 40 years old.

Portugal seeks leadership

With a ticket to the round of 16 secured, Portugal faces Colombia this Saturday in Miami. The match will define the winner of Group K.

Cristiano Ronaldo arrived in the city with a light jacket, despite the almost 38 degrees Celsius. He was wearing a T-shirt and shorts, and gave a thumbs-up to fans waiting for his bus.

Historical goals

The Portuguese striker has two goals in this World Cup, reaching 10 in six World Cups. He is the only player in history to score in six different editions of the tournament.

Possible crossing with Messi

If Portugal wins, it will be the leader of the group and will be on the same side of the table as Argentina. That would open the door to a confrontation between Cristiano and Lionel Messi in the quarterfinals, on July 11.

Colombia, for its part, needs to win to top the group. The match promises intensity at the close of the group stage.
