2026 World Cup: Brazil clinches spot thanks to Vinicius' goal

A goal by Vinicius Junior secured Brazil a place in the 2026 World Cup, quite a celebration for Carlo Ancelotti's home debut as head coach. The once prolific duo at Real Madrid helped Brazil to a 1-0 win over Paraguay at Sao Paulo on Tuesday, a result that could also get Ecuador through the finishing line. Defending champion Argentina, held to a 1-1 draw by Colombia, had already qualified for next year's global tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Brazil moved to second spot in the standings with 25 points, 10 behind Argentina but, crucially, more than six points clear of the seventh-place team with two games remaining in South American qualifying. The top six teams in South America earn direct entries to the 48-team World Cup. Chile will miss a third consecutive World Cup after losing 2-0 at Bolivia to remain last in 10-nation round-robin competition, a result that cost head coach Ricardo Gareca his job. Uruguay beat Venezuela at home 2-0, with goals from Rodrigo Aguirre and Giorgian de Arrascaeta, and edged closer to one of the six direct World Cup spots with 24 points. Venezuela, with 18, is one ahead of Bolivia in the contest for seventh place that grants an intercontinental playoff berth.

Former Ohio State running back signs one-year deal with the Denver Broncos

Former Ohio State running back signs one-year deal with the Denver Broncos J.K. Dobbins, the Comeback Player of the Year finalist, is signing with the #Broncos on a one-year, $5.25 million deal, sources tell me and @RapSheet. Still only 26, Dobbins had over 1,000 yards from scrimmage and 9 TDs in 13 games last season with the #Chargers. — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) June 10, 2025 Former Ohio State running back J.K. Dobbins is on the move. It's been a wild ride for Dobbins in his short NFL career. After being selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the second round of the 2020 NFL draft, the former Buckeye star had a respectable rookie season, rushing for over 800 yards and putting down the foundation of what looked like a promising and productive career. That's when things took a turn. Dobbins suffered a torn ACL in a preseason game prior to the start of the 2021-2022 season and missed the entire year. He rehabbed but again suffered knee problems the following year, only to come back and tear his ACL during the 2023-2024 season. Dobbins signed a new contract with the Los Angeles Chargers prior to the 2024-2025 season and had what could only be described as a bounce-back year, having his most productive campaign of his career by rushing for 905 yards and nine touchdowns. Dobbins also had some yards as a receiver, putting him over 1,000 yards from scrimmage. Now, after all of that rehab and resiliency, Dobbins will be joining the Denver Broncos on a reportedly one-year, $5.25 million deal. The base salary of the contract is $2.75 million, but many incentives are available to push him over $5 million. This is great news for Dobbins. When healthy, he's shown that he can be a difference maker in the backfield, and the Broncos are banking on exactly that. Hopefully, he has a season where he's on the field as much as possible, and that translates into a long-term deal.

England booed by its fans after loss to Senegal in international friendly

Boos rang out as England left the field after a 3-1 loss to Senegal in a friendly on Tuesday which marked the first defeat of Thomas Tuchel's tenure as coach. Senegal recovered from conceding Harry Kane's early goal to become the first team from Africa to record a victory over England. "We're not going to panic. But, for sure, we know we need to do better," England captain Kane told broadcaster ITV and suggested England had lost "that aggressive nature that we've had." In World Cup qualifying on Tuesday, the Netherlands beat Malta 8-0 and Austria beat San Marino 4-0. England's landmark loss Kane was the only player retained in Tuchel's starting lineup from last week's 1-0 win over Andorra, which had caused Tuchel to criticize his team's attitude. The changes brought little improvement. Kane's record-extending 73rd England goal gave his team the lead in the seventh minute, when he bundled in after a goalkeeping error by Edouard Mendy. Senegal was a step above Tuchel's previous England opponents Albania, Latvia and Andorra, and England conceded for the first time in his tenure in the 40th minute. Nicolas Jackson chased down a long pass and hooked it back for the onrushing Ismaila Sarr to score after having outpaced Kyle Walker. Senegal's second goal followed a long ball to Habib Diarra, who seemed to be attempting a pass of his own when the ball deflected in off goalkeeper Dean Henderson's leg. Jude Bellingham thought he'd leveled the game for England with a goal at a corner in the 84th, but it was ruled out for an earlier handball by Levi Colwill. Senegal made it 3-1 when Cheikh Sabaly finished off a counter in stoppage time. Depay ties a Dutch record Memphis Depay tied the scoring record for the Netherlands men's national team with two goals in the eight-goal win over Malta. Depay scored in the ninth and 16th minutes for his 49th and 50th goals, equaling a record set by team great Robin van Persie. Depay hit 50 goals in his 102nd game for the Netherlands, while van Persie's 50th came in his 101st game in 2015. In other World Cup qualifiers in Europe on Tuesday, Romania won 2-0 against Cyprus, Serbia beat Andorra 3-0 and Latvia drew 1-1 with Albania. Finland's game against Poland was suspended because of a medical emergency with Finland leading 2-1. The game later resumed. Reporting by The Associated Press.
