Christian Pulisic buries Team USA's first Copa América goal with gorgeous strike vs Bolivia

Image
[ad_1] Team USA was looking to make a quick statement to start their Copa América match against Bolivia, and it came off the foot of Christian Pulisic.  The U.S. men's national team got off to a hot start in their group stage play as Pulisic found the back of the net with just over two minutes into their opening match on Sunday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.  The U.S. found set up for a corner kick at 2:17 into the match, and Pulisic made a short pass to Timothy Weah to run a two-man game into Bolivia’s 18-yard box instead of kicking one toward the net.

MLS to unveil new team | The Express Tribune

[ad_1] MIAMI: Major League Soccer will announce a new team in San Diego on Thursday after British-Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Mansour paid a record expansion fee of around $500 million, a person with knowledge of the plans has told AFP. The 30th club in MLS will play at the recently built 35,000 capacity Snapdragon Stadium, home to the San Diego Aztecs college football team and the San Diego Wave, the National Womens Soccer League franchise. The previous record fee paid for entering MLS was the $325 million committed by Charlotte FC in 2019. The original entry fee to MLS, for its first season in 1996, was $5 million. The value of MLS teams has increased significantly in recent years. When Orlando City joined the league in 2015 their owners paid $70 million while Los Angeles FC's owners forked out $110 million five years ago. The new San Diego team, whose name has yet to be revealed, is earmarked to start play in the league 2025 and will be the fourth MLS team in Calif

Only one new car in the U.S. now sells for under $20,000

Image
[ad_1] Just five years ago, a price-conscious auto shopper in the United States could choose from among a dozen new small cars selling for under $20,000. Now, there's just one: The Mitsubishi Mirage. And even the Mirage appears headed for the scrap yard. At a time when Americans increasingly want pricey SUVs and trucks rather than small cars, the Mirage remains the lone new vehicle whose average sale price is under 20 grand — a figure that once marked a kind of unofficial threshold of affordability. With prices — new and used — having soared since the pandemic, $20,000 is no longer much of a starting point for a new car.  This current version of the Mirage, which reached U.S. dealerships a decade ago, sold for an average of $19,205 last month, according to  data  from Cox Automotive. (Though a few other new models have starting prices under $20,000, their actual purchase prices, with options and shipping, exceed that figure.) This current version of the Mit

Review: At ‘Tartuffe’ in the Park, Hypocrisy Is No Picnic

Image
[ad_1] I like to think that Molière, the great French playwright who died in 1673, would have really enjoyed the flagrant hypocrisy of our current political moment. Each month seems to bring new duplicities and new scandals, lies big and small — the résumés embroidered like Rococo tapestries, the lawmakers endorsing conspiracy theories to boost their careers. A devotee of prevarication and double-dealing, Molière would have made the most, in three acts, of stories like these. In some ways and in multiple plays, he already has. More than 350 years dead, he can seem effortlessly, wickedly contemporary. But a current production of “Tartuffe,” presented by the theater company Molière in the Park, drawing from the playwright’s original version, takes a different approach. A cause célèbre in 1664 when it was written, the play was quickly banned by an archbishop with a limited sense of humor. It skewers not only those who preach morality while practicing alternatives, but also the toadie

Salman Butt removed from PCB selection committee on PM’s orders | The Express Tribune

[ad_1] ISLAMABAD: A controversial appointment in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) selection committee was immediately rescinded upon the direction of Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar, who is the Patron-in-Chief of PCB. The PM's Office Media Wing, in a press release on Saturday, conveyed that the prime minister has taken serious notice of the appointment of Salman Butt, a controversial former cricket player. A day earlier, PCB confirmed the appointment of former Pakistan cricketers Kamran Akmal, Rao Iftikhar Anjum and Salman Butt as consultant members to chief selector Wahab Riaz. However, Butt’s selection was met with severe criticism on social media due to his involvement in the 2010 spot-fixing scandal. The other two cricketers who featured in that scam were pace bowlers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamir.
