:champion:CD Guadalajara (Chivas) :MEX won a penalty shootout (4-2) to beat Toronto FC and add the Concacaf Champions League trophy.

This is their second CONCACAF Champions trophy (first in 1962), but the first in the Champions League-Era.

 

A 2-1 Toronto FC victory Wednesday night meant the teams were level at 3-3 on aggregate. The match went directly to a penalty shootout. All four Chivas kicktakers, Oswaldo Alanis, Jose Godinez, Alan Pulido and Angel Zaldivar, converted. Toronto FC midfielder Jonathan Osorioand Michael Bradley missed their kicks. 

Guadalajara will represent CONCACAF at 2018 Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates.

How little must this title mean for mexican teams that mrv86 didn't even make a comment about it.

Well for me it means a lot, since it's the team I support.

 

If I didn't said anything was because a CONCACAF tournament will not receive too much attention in general.

Him tweeting against Morocco 2026 is the best possible lobby in favor of Marocco 2026.

big drama in Italy in Juventus vs. Inter match , an early goal by Juve verified by VAR then a red card for Inter in the first 15 minutes , another goal for Juve denied by VAR , then a crazy 2nd half Inter ties and leads 2-1 after an own goal by Barzagli and keeps the lead until 87th minute , when Juve scores 2 goals in 2 minutes by Cuardado and Higuain and become very much closer to win their 7th consecutive title in Serie A

Yeah from what I heard, you could basically kick his legs out of the stadium and he'll still finish the match, so it was a stupid question :p

Legia Warszawa won Polish Cup, defeating Arka Gdynia 2-1.

 

This apparently caused big joy  in Luxembourg, as one of their NT players appeared in the game playing for Legia, therefore achieving the biggest success in football for their country since over 25 years :d

there is no group of death but I believe group B and E are a bit tougher and then group F. even tough with 24 teams format all top teams will advance to the next round.

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
