AT HALF: Spurs, Burnley, Bournemouth lead; Leicester-Everton level

By Nicholas MendolaOct 6, 2018, 10:52 AM EDT

The Premier League started without an early kickoff on Saturday, but there’s plenty to discuss from a quintet of 10 a.m. ET kickoffs on Saturday.

Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Cardiff City [STREAM]

A rare Eric Dier goal has Spurs up front, though Hugo Lloris has not looked confident between the sticks for the favored hosts.

Burnley 1-0 Huddersfield Town [STREAM]

Johann Berg Gudmundsson sent a cross to Sam Vokes, and the big Welshman thumped it past Jonas Lossl.

Crystal Palace 0-0 Wolves [STREAM]

Chances at both ends and plenty to like in terms of style of plays, but nothing on the board yet.

Watford 0-3 Bournemouth [STREAM]

David Brooks and Joshua King have scored for the Cherries, King’s first of two coming from the spot after a second yellow card to Christian Kabasele. This one’s not quite put to bed, but the bedtime stories are being perused at Vicarage Road.

Leicester City 1-1 Everton [STREAM]

Rebounds that fall to Richarlison tend to wind up in one place: The back of the net. But if Leicester is celebrated for doing one thing, it’s countering, and Ricardo Pereira beat Jordan Pickford to restore the deadlock before half.

Argentina vs Mexico, live! Score, updates, live stream link, video highlights

By Nicholas MendolaNov 26, 2022, 1:30 PM EST

Lionel Messi and Argentina have to bounce back from a historic upset loss when the Albiceleste meet Mexico in the 2022 World Cup in Lusail on Saturday.

STREAM LIVE ARGENTINA vs MEXICO

Argentina blew an early lead and lost 2-1 to Saudi Arabia In Lusail on Tuesday, shocking the tournament to life and putting even more emphasis on its second match with a tricky El Tri.

Mexico, for what it’s worth, will be upset not to have taken more from a scoreless draw with Poland at Stadium 974 in Doha and will also be positive that their final match against the Saudis will be a tough one.

Key storylines, players to watch closely

It’s Messi, of course, who says he’s playing in his final World Cup, but it’s also about who’s going to step up as a difference maker for Argentina. Lautaro Martinez had a goal taken off the board for a razor-thin offside versus Saudi Arabia, while Julian Alvarez had a shot saved in his sub’s role and both Paulo Dybala and Angel Correa were unused subs in the opener.

Mexico’s midfield was excellent to start the tournament. Will Hector Herrera again join Edson Alvarez and Luis Chavez is setting the tone for Tata Martino’s team? And can El Tri find a finisher after Henry Martin and Co. failed to find the back of the goal versus Poland.

Kylian Mbappe bags brace as France advances with win over Denmark

By Nicholas MendolaNov 26, 2022, 12:56 PM EST

France sealed a spot in the knockout rounds of the 2022 World Cup with a 2-1 win over Denmark at Stadium 974 in Doha on Saturday.

Kylian Mbappe’s 61st-minute goal was answered by Andreas Christensen, but the French wizard completed his brace in the 86th minute to score his 14th goal in his last 12 matches for France.

STREAM LIVE FRANCE vs DENMARK

Antoine Griezmann assisted Mbappe’s late winner as France’s bid to become the third team to repeat as World Cup champions continues to look strong ahead of a group stage finale with Tunisia on Wednesday.

[ LIVE: World Cup 2022 schedule, how to watch, scores, hub ]

For Denmark, it will need to beat Australia after the Socceroos toppled Tunisia earlier Saturday and hope that Tunisia doesn’t surprise the already-through French as goal differential could come into play.

Mbappe puts pair of dents in Denmark’s durable defense

The reigning World Cup champions are no stranger to scoring boatloads of goals — ask Australia — but even the removal of Denmark’s captain didn’t change how strong the Danes defending has been in Qatar.

It was Galatasaray’s Victor Nelsson, not Simon Kjaer, who joined Andreas Christensen and Joachim Andersen in stifling Les Bleus this time, and goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel was there when needed with three saves and six recoveries.

But Mbappe.

The French center forward made the most of good service from Theo Hernandez on the first goal and an impeccable pass from Antoine Griezmann on the second as Denmark pushed France all the way.

Still, France took 20 of the game’s 28 shots and won the xG battle 2.35 to 0.61. Rivals will hope that the set piece goal is a way to beat the champs but France was otherwise solid again in its bid to win a second-straight World Cup.

Key storylines, players to watch closely

Denmark’s defenders were ready for Tunisia but its midfield could not dictate the pace and its forwards were nearly non-existent. To say France presents a bigger challenge for Andreas Skov Olsen, Kasper Dollberg, or whoever else Denmark puts in attack is an understatement.

France, meanwhile, allowed an early goal to the Socceroos before turning on the style for most of the remainder of the patch. Antoine Griezmann looks especially lively for Les Bleus after contract issues limited his minutes for Atletico Madrid earlier this season.
