José Castillo on Milito: He's mad about football

Yahoo11-07-2025
The mood at Chivas has been very positive since Gabriel Milito arrived on the bench, as he comes with the mission of bringing the Rebaño back to the top of Mexican football.
And, in an interview with TUDN, José Castillo spoke about the coach's work, describing him as "a football fanatic."
"While it's complicated because the opponent plays too, he's someone who is very proactive. He's someone—and I was joking about this with a couple of people I talked to—he's a football fanatic, he knows so much, but he also has the ability to transmit that knowledge, to simplify it on the field, and to give us those tools so we can execute on the pitch what he's asking of us," he said.

The proof will be on the field, however, the rojiblancos will have to wait for their debut due to the rescheduling of their match against Tigres because of work being done on the Estadio Akron pitch.

A bittersweet weekend for IndyCar's Arrow McLaren at Laguna Seca

On paper, it was a solid weekend for the papaya squad, Arrow McLaren. Christian Lundgaard scored a podium, Pato O'Ward was a solid fourth and Nolan Siegel led his first laps of the 2025 season. But it came with a disappointing conclusion for Siegel and a championship likely lost for O'Ward. Lundgaard was the star of the day for the group. O'Ward rolled off second, but the Dane finished there from seventh after pitting earlier than his rivals to gain ground with an undercut. That led him to third, where he used a bold overtake to sneak past Colton Herta for the runner-up spot. He didn't have the pace to challenge frontrunner Alex Palou after a couple late cautions, but held onto second to give the organization its 11th podium on the year - a new high mark for the squad. 'I knew that the pit sequences are really key here,' Lundgaard said of his run. 'We went into this race not knowing if it was going to be a red (tire) race or a prime race. It ended up being a red race and I just can't thank this team enough.' O'Ward put together a complete weekend, qualifying second and finishing fourth on a day where the strategy and speed didn't fall his way. It was a solid result that continued a streak of success for the Mexican star. He's finished seventh or better in nine of the past 10 races, with two wins and five podiums. In many years, that would be enough to challenge for his first IndyCar title. But the consistency has come in a dominant year for Palou. The Chip Ganassi Racing star's seven (now eight) wins left O'Ward in need of major gains in Laguna Seca to have a chance to close within reach for the championship. But after Palou's win, he now holds a 120-point championship advantage with just three races remaining. The Spaniard could clinch the title next time out at Portland International Raceway. Barring an absolute meltdown - and despite O'Ward's best efforts - the championship battle likely ended Sunday under the California sun. Nolan Siegel, Arrow McLaren Then, there was Siegel. Running in his home state, the Palo Alto native was the only driver not named Palou to lead laps on Sunday. An alternate strategy put him out front for 11 laps early on before Palou surged past him in turn 3. Even after that, Siegel was still positioned to make the most of a race he'd started 16th in. But that all fell apart in the closing stages, when Siegel went for a spin at the Corkscrew. He attempted to make a pass on Louis Foster, but made contact and briefly looped around before rolling on. Siegel ultimately took the checkered flag in 18th, continuing a streak of four-straight races with an average finish of 21.75 after he'd scored results of eighth and 11th at Road America and Mid-Ohio. In the end, every driver at Arrow McLaren showed promise in Laguna Seca. Two of the team's drivers finished in the top-four spots and the other led laps. But with Siegel showing his inexperience and Palou continuing to dominate, there was little else on offer to be joyous about in the Java House Grand Prix of Monterey.

🎥 Sunday to remember Sepúlveda's stunning goal

Angel Sepulveda or, better said, the "Angel of the Goal", as he is aptly called at Cruz Azul, is experiencing one of his best moments as a footballer. To prove this, it's enough to remember the amazing goal he scored in the match against León. "A goal to take your hat off to, it was a beautiful chest control and the use of the bicycle kick, especially considering how precise the shot turned out to be, leaves me very happy with the version of the forward we have", said Nicolás Larcamón. The attacker remains the leading scorer with three dates in the Apertura 2025, with four goals. In addition to consolidating himself as the top scorer of this year's Concacf Champions Cup.

MLS: Lionel Messi's future at Inter Miami in doubt!

Lionel Messi Lionel Messi's future with Inter Miami in MLS is in question. The Argentine World Cup champion could be on his way out. Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba are furious with MLS and a rule they simply can't understand. Their frustration peaked after being suspended for skipping the All-Star Game—a showcase pitting the top players from the North American league against their Mexican league counterparts. They claimed they needed rest to avoid playing another match, a decision fully supported by their club and head coach Javier Mascherano. This decision has gone down terribly with MLS officials, who are both angry and embarrassed. They're frustrated because this marquee event has been planned for a long time, and Lionel Messi is well aware of its significance. MLS commissioner Don Garber weighed in on the situation. "I know Lionel Messi loves this league. I don't think there's a player who has done more for MLS than he has. I fully understand, respect, and admire his commitment to Inter Miami, and I respect his decision." he stated. Meanwhile, Jorge Mas, the majority owner of Inter Miami, also reacted, casting doubt over the Argentine star's future. "Messi is very upset—extremely upset today, as expected. I hope this won't have long-term consequences. Could this affect how players perceive the way the league operates? Absolutely." he said.
