Really looking forward to the last 10 minutes when Argentina are a goal up, aka the worst 10 minutes in all of our lives

“When I arrived at Pumas, people asked me whether I’d come straight from the beach. I had! “I always loved the stuff the surfers wore, the Bermuda shorts, the colours. I wanted to bring something from that world with me. So I started my own style.” nytimes.com/athletic/7421677…

What a night at the Azteca. Could barely keep track of the drama. It was also valedictory. The World Cup now loses its dislocated heart. This occasion was one final explosion, a proper game in a proper stadium. It showed us what we could have had nytimes.com/athletic/7424898…

At the Azteca. Last one of these this summer. Can't get enough of Juan Gabriel. We're live with weather updates and the actual football here nytimes.com/athletic/live-bl…

Trying to work out what the worst part of that Neymar penalty was. Don't actually think it was the grin or the argument afterwards. I think it was the time he took to actually take it

"I used to tell people that I was one of a kind. That was my catchphrase, my mentality." Spoke to Jorge Campos about his 22-goal season as a striker, starting games in goal & ending them up front, surfing and – yes – the secrets of kit design. What a guy nytimes.com/athletic/7421677…

Did I go to an art supply shop on the morning of the interview, buy a load of felt tips and ask him to design a kit? Reader, I did

Patrick Berg actually planned that offside as part of a long play

“That was my catchphrase, my mentality: ’I’m the best, I’m one of a kind…” Jorge Campos is not wrong. He was a surfer, designed his own kits and was a formidable striker - despite being Mexico’s most legendary goalkeeper. He tells @jacklang about his extraordinary career. 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/7421677…
