Head coach to depart after Uruguay exit with Spain lossBielsa: ‘I am responsible for all the disappointment’Marcelo Bielsa said he had left nothing to Uruguayan football after overseeing their elimination from the World Cup.Uruguay failed to win a game in a group that included Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia and their exit was confirmed with a 1-0 defeat by Spain in Guadalajara during which the 40-year-old goalkeeper Fernando Muslera was withdrawn at half-time after his error handed Spain the only goal of the game. The 70-year-old Argentinian, who took over in 2023 and whose relationship with the players was poor, to the point of describing himself as “toxic”, will not continue in the post. Continue reading...
Marcelo Bielsa revealed the reason behind substituting Federico Valverde in Uruguay's 1-0 defeat to Spain Spain defeated Uruguay 1-0 in the Group H Matchday 3 clash at the 2026 World Cup, eliminating the South Americans from contention to advance to the next round. In the 57th minute, manager Marcelo Bielsa made the surprise decision to substitute captain Federico Valverde, a move that sparked debate among Uruguayan fans. After the match, the Argentine coach was asked on the field about the reasoning behind the Valverde substitution. “I wanted the team to have more of a presence in attack,” Bielsa said, bringing on forward Federico Viñas in his place. Amid the controversy, the manager made the decision to pull goalkeeper Fernando Muslera at halftime, following a catastrophic blunder that helped Alex Baena to score the game-winning goal for Spain.

Instead, it was the goalkeeper himself who voluntarily asked to sub out, step aside, and hand the reins to Sergio Rochet for the second half. Spain and Cape Verde secure qualification Following their win, Spain secured qualification to the Round of 32 as group winners, where they will face the runner-up of Group J, which could be Austria or Algeria. The result of the match at Guadalajara Stadium also worked in Cape Verde’s favor, sealing a historic qualification to the Round of 32 in their World Cup debut.

Currently recovering from his injury, FC Barcelona have reportedly set some conditions to Spain national team for Lamine Yamal's participation in the 2026 World Cup. Lamine Yamal suffered an injury late in FC Barcelona‘s season that has disrupted his preparation ahead of the 2026 World Cup, leaving him heading into the tournament without competitive match time under his belt. With Spain‘s opening game fast approaching, the Blaugrana have reportedly outlined a series of conditions governing how Yamal is used during the competition. The injury occurred on April 22 against Celta Vigo, when Yamal sustained a hamstring tear in his left leg and has been sidelined since, though his participation in the World Cup was never considered to be in jeopardy. To keep a close eye on his recovery, the forward has been accompanied by FC Barcelona‘s external physiotherapist Fernando Galán, who has been visiting him every Monday to monitor his progress. According to Diario AS, Barcelona’s expectation is that Yamal could make his return to competitive action in Spain’s World Cup opener against Cape Verde on June 15. Assuming no setbacks, the six-week recovery window would be complete by that point, clearing him from a medical standpoint. Barcelona’s roadmap for Yamal during the World Cup Even with the medical clearance in sight, Barcelona’s position is that Yamal’s return to the pitch should be gradual. The final call will rest with Spain’s coaching staff, but the Blaugrana’s hope is that his playing time increases progressively across the group stage depending on how the team is faring in the early games. Lamine Yamal of Spain controls the ball while under pressure from Ahmed Fatouh of Egypt. The club’s preferred blueprint is for Yamal to play approximately 15 minutes against Cape Verde, around 60 minutes against Saudi Arabia, and then be in a position to complete the full 90 against Uruguay in the final group stage fixture. For now, Yamal is continuing his rehabilitation program with the medical staff and will not feature in Spain’s final pre-tournament friendly against Peru in Mexico, remaining at the team’s base camp in Tennessee to complete his recovery. With Yamal sidelined alongside Nico Williams and Víctor Muñoz, coach Luis de la Fuente expressed optimism that all three could be available for the tournament opener. “All three are within the timeframe to be able to arrive in good condition to play on the 15th; we don’t know the exact minutes, but Lamine’s injury was different from Nico’s and Victor’s. Each one has their own process and duration, but the most important thing is that within the parameters we have, they can be met for the 15th,” he told reporters after arriving in Puebla.
Plus: which teams had the most wins without promotion and can anyone match Jadon Sancho’s hat-trick?“Matvey Safonov did not make a single save in the Champions League final, across normal time, extra time and penalties, and wound up winning it,” notes Philip Cornwall. “I realise records are limited, but has this happened before in a major final?”We’ve found three more Champions League finals in which the winning goalkeeper did not have a save to make, though none of them had the chance to do so during a penalty competition. When José Mourinho’s Porto beat Monaco 3-0 in 2004, Vitor Baía made no saves that were officially recorded, though he did make one great stop when Fernando Morientes was wrongly flagged offside.
