Mexico keeps on winning soccer silverware over the United States, this time with a blowout win.
Mexico's Under-15 boys' team beat its U.S. counterpart 5-0 in Sunday's 2025 Concacaf Boys' Under-15 Championship for a second straight title in that competition.
All five of Mexico's goals in the tournament's final – played in Alajuela, Costa Rica – were scored by Mexican-American players. Juan Carlos Martínez Jr., who had two goals in the final and won the Best Player Award, was born in California and plays for the LA Galaxy Academy.
Mexico's three other goals in the final were scored by: Paxon Ruffin, born in Florida, who plays in the youth ranks of Liga MX club Monterrey; Da'vian Kimbrough (Sacramento FC academy); and Lisandro Torres (LAFC Academy). Kimbrough and Torres were also born in California.
It's been a banner year for El Tri's soccer teams, especially on the men's senior side. Mexico won its first Concacaf Nations League title in March over Canada, snapping the U.S. men's national team's hold on that competition. Mexico then followed that by winning its 10th Concacaf Gold Cup in July with a 2-1 win over the USMNT.

Along with the U-15 title, Mexico also won the Under-20 Concacaf title on Aug. 5. That was Mexico's 14th U-20 crown and its first since the 2015 edition. The U.S. had won the previous three editions.
Mexico and the U.S. are serving as co-hosts (along with Canada) for the FIFA 2026 World Cup, and it's great to see the rivalry and talent on the pitch between the two sides continue to grow for years to come.

How to Watch New England Patriots vs Minnesota Vikings: Live Stream NFL Preseason, TV Channel
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New England Patriots will face the Minnesota Vikings in week 2 of the NFL preseason on Saturday at U.S. Bank Stadium. Patriots vs Vikings - NFL Preseason Week 2 Patriots vs Vikings - NFL Preseason Week 2 Coley Cleary How to Watch Patriots vs Vikings Date: Saturday, August 16, 2025 Time: 1:00 PM ET Channel: NFL Network Stream: Fubo (TRY FOR FREE) The Patriots dominated in their preseason opener, beating the Commanders 48-18. Drake Maye ran in a touchdown and rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson flashed his talent, gaining 30 yards on four touches from scrimmage, while also taking the opening kickoff of the game 100 yards to the house. New England could be an exciting young team this season if those two can develop into what the franchise is hoping for. J.J. McCarthy looked decent but not great in his first action of the season, completing 4-7 of his passes for 30 yards. Minnesota will likely treat him like a rookie early on in the season as he continues to get a feel for the NFL, before opening up the playbook in the second half of the year. This is a great NFL matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action. This game will be nationally broadcast on the NFL Network, which can be live-streamed with a free trial subscription to FuboTV.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley LIVE updates, how to watch Premier League, score, highlights, stream
The Thomas Frank era officially begins on Saturday (10 am ET), when Tottenham Hotspur host newly promoted Burnley to kick of the 2025-26 Premier League season. WATCH — Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley For live updates and highlights throughout Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley, check out PST's live blog coverage below. How to watch Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley live, stream link and start time Kick off time: 10 am ET, Saturday Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium TV Channel: Peacock Streaming: Stream live on Peacock Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley live updates - by Andy Edwards Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley live score: 3-0 Goalscorers: Richarlison (10', 60'), Brennan Johnson (66') GOAL! Spurs 3-0 Burnley: Johnson gets in behind and dinks it past Dubravka (66') GOAL! Spurs 2-0 Burnley: Richarlison climbs the ladder to score a beauty (60') GOAL! Spurs 1-0 Burnley: Kudus finds Richarlison for the opener (10') Mohammed Kudus tees up Richarlison to get Thomas Frank's Spurs off to a flying start! Spurs starting lineup Vicario - Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence - Gray, Bergvall, Sarr - Kudus, Johnson, Richarlison Burnley starting lineup Dubravka - Sonne, Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman - Mejbri, Cullen, Laurent, Anthony - Foster Frank replaced Ange Postecoglou as Spurs manager this summer — just weeks after the Aussie delivered the club its first trophy since 2008 — and Tottenham Hotspur legend Heung-min Son decided it was time for him to move on as well, so say it's been a summer of change and transition would be a massive understatement. Cristian Romero has replaced Son as captain and everyone else is back from last season's Europa League-winning team, with the noted addition of Mohammed Kudus ($74 million, from West Ham) in Son's place. James Maddison (torn ACL) and Dejan Kulusevski (knee) are both missing in central midfield, where Frank's options are limited to ball-winners and all-action types. Spurs will be a dangerous counter-attacking and set-piece side this year, if their goals against PSG in the UEFA Super Cup are any indication, and that raises the floor for last season's 17th-place finishers but lowers their ceiling at the same time. Burnley have been plenty busy themselves this summer, preparing for life in the top tier once again. A dozen players have already been signed with transfer fees attached,and it's a baker's dozen if you include Axel Tuanzebe, who signed as a free agent from recently relegated Ipswich Town. Scott Parker's Clarets were promoted back to the Premier League (again) after finishing 2nd last season, their first back in the Championship (again). It marked the 4th straight season that Burnley have either been promoted or relegated, as they yo-yo back and forth, clearly too good for the second tier but also miles off the pace the last time they were in the top flight (24 points from 38 games, relegated by 8 points). Tottenham Hotspur team news, focus OUT: James Maddison (torn ACL - MORE), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), Destiny Udogie (knee), Radu Dragusin (knee), Yves Bissouma (disciplinary), Kota Takai (foot) Burnley team news, focus OUT: Zeki Amdouni (knee), Jordan Beyer (knee), Bashir Humphreys (thigh), Manuel Benson (achilles) | QUESTIONABLE: Martin Dubravka (shoulder), Connor Roberts (undisclosed), Zian Flemming (fitness) Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley prediction Based on their Super Cup performance, Spurs are well equipped to knock off some of the 'bigger' sides from around Europe in the Champions League this season, but without Maddison or Kulusevski they're still probably going to struggle when they have lots of the ball and have to break down an organized defense. Spurs 1-0 Burnley. The rout is on at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Brennan Johnson makes it 3-0 for Spurs against Burnley. It's only Matchweek 1, but we already have a goal of the season contender thanks to Richarlison's acrobatic finish to make it 2-0 for Spurs against Burnley.
