Mexico's Cruz Azul wins CONCACAF Champions Cup
Xinhua 02 Jun 2025, 12:46 GMT+10 MEXICO CITY, June 1 (Xinhua) -- Mexico international forward Angel Sepulveda scored twice as Cruz Azul clinched the CONCACAF Champions Cup with a 5-0 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps on Sunday. Ignacio Rivero gave the Mexican side the lead in the eighth minute at Estadio Olimpico Universitario by sweeping a low first-time shot into the far corner. Lorenzo Faravelli doubled the lead when he capitalized on a defensive error to fire home from outside the area. Sepulveda made it 3-0 with a sliding effort from inside the six-yard box after meeting Carlos Rotondi's cross at the near post. Poland international midfielder Mateusz Bogusz completed a dominant first-half from the hosts as he intercepted a wayward defensive clearance and sent a 16-yard drive into the far corner. The Canadian club struggled to keep possession and failed to put a single shot on target against the Liga MX side, which shifted into cruise control for much of the second half. Sepulveda was irrepressible and the 34-year-old completed the rout by heading home after Jorge Sanchez's floating cross. Cruz Azul earned the right to host the final due to its superior record throughout the tournament. The triumph put Cruz Azul level with its Mexico City rival America as the most successful clubs in the history of the competition with seven titles each. The result means Cruz Azul automatically qualifies for the next editions of the FIFA Club World Cup and the FIFA Intercontinental Cup.

Cruz Azul thrash Vancouver Whitecaps to win CONCACAF Champions Cup
Angel Sepulveda scored twice for Cruz Azul, who led 4-0 at half-time in Mexico City and equal rivals Club America's record of seven CONCACAF titles. Sepulveda finished as the tournament's top-scorer with nine goals while the Whitecaps became the third Canadian team to reach the final and lose. It was also the third straight year in which an MLS team has been beaten by a Mexican club in the continental final. The Whitecaps had high hopes of becoming the first Canadian team to win the trophy having beaten two top Mexican teams, Monterrey and Pumas, on their journey to their first appearance in the final. But they were utterly outclassed by the Mexico City club. It was an uncharacteristically poor performance from Jesper Sorensen's Whitecaps, who were punished by some ruthless finishing from the Mexican side. Cruz Azul enjoyed home advantage at their Estadio Olimpico Universitario and they immediately brought the crowd to their feet with an eighth-minute opener. The Whitecaps gave the ball away in their own half and Carlos Rotondi pounced, threading the ball through to Ignacio Rivero, who took it first time with his left foot to fire into the far corner. It was another giveaway that led to the second, 20 minutes later, when Andres Cubas lost possession and Lorenzo Faravelli showed no hesitation as he unleashed a fierce drive which crashed in off the inside of the post. The Whitecaps, who beat Inter Miami in the semi-final to reach their first CONCACAF title game, looked nothing like the team that has impressed so much this season and they were soon in deeper trouble. The Vancouver defence were slow to react to a quick throw-in and Rotondi broke down the left and delivered a pinpoint low cross which Sepulveda deftly flicked past Yohei Takaoka. It was one-way traffic and Vancouver were punished again when a half-clearance fell to Polish midfielder Mateusz Bogusz just outside the box. The former Los Angeles FC player drilled home from the edge of the box. Cruz Azul went in at half-time having scored four goals from four attempts on goal and with their opponents looking shell-shocked. It got worse five minutes after the restart when Cubas was robbed again in deep midfield and from the counter-attack Jorge Sanchez crossed and Sepulveda rose superbly to head home his second and his ninth goal in the competition. "We took the final very seriously and it was a perfect performance. The truth is that we had the game wrapped up by half-time," said Mexican international Sepulveda. Daniel Rios, Vancouver's Mexican striker said the team had been impacted by playing at high altitude with the game played at 2,240 metres (7,350 feet) above sea level. "We made a couple of mistakes and they were very decisive every time they attacked. The altitude really affected us, we couldn't adapt and we're going home disappointed," he said. The victory gave Cruz Azul qualification for two FIFA competitions -- the 2025 Intercontinental Cup and the 2029 Club World Cup.

Vicious duck described by expert as young ‘punk' terrorizes Florida neighborhood, attacking elderly residents
What the duck?! An aggressive duck has been terrorizing a sleepy Florida neighborhood and attacking its elderly residents — even bloodying one local, according to reports. The federally protected Muscovy duck — who's since been named Jimmy — has chased several people with its wings spread out in attack mode and brazenly bit a resident while he was sleeping on the otherwise quiet street in Cape Coral, according to Fox 4. Advertisement 5 The Muscovy duck chases Fox reporter Bella Line across a street in the South Florida neighborhood. Fox 4 Now/YouTube James Sepulveda was bitten by the vicious waterfowl last week. He has lived in the neighborhood for nearly three decades – but it was the first time a duck has ever drawn blood on his own porch, he told the local station. Advertisement 'I sit on my porch, 7 to 7:30 at this time of the year to catch a sunset, you know, some sun, and I had my eyes closed. All of a sudden, I felt a jab on my hand and it was bleeding,' Sepulveda told Fox 4. The black duck — which is native to Texas and several Latin American countries, but not Florida — was the culprit, he said. Although the Migratory Bird Treaty Act protects the breed of duck, Sepulveda said that if it attacks and injures people, it should be shown no mercy. 'They should be gotten rid of,' he said. Advertisement 5 The duck was captured by animal wrangler Mark Quadrozzi before any other attacks. Fox 4 Now/YouTube 5 The black duck is native to Texas and several Latin American countries, but not Florida. Fox 4 Now/YouTube Sepulveda unwrapped his bandage to show the Fox reporter the injury to his hand. During his interview, he also squared off with the duck, which was menacing him on his driveway. 'You want to walk,' Sepulveda asked. 'Walk the other way.' Advertisement At one point, Fox 4 reporter Bella Line needed to run away from the duck as it chased her. 5 Although the Migratory Bird Treaty Act protects the breed of duck, if it attacks and injures people, it should be shown no mercy, one resident said. Fox 4 Now/YouTube Sepulveda wasn't the only one outraged by the foul fowl. His neighbor, Richard Guy, also had an encounter with the belligerent bird. 'I stood up and I made some noises, thinking it would go away, duck, you know, next thing I know, its wings come out you know like it's going to attack me,' Guy told Fox 4. Luckily for the local residents, Mark Quadrozzi with 'Remarkable Resques' saved the day. He captured the unruly duck, whom he has named Jimmy, on Wednesday and brought him back to a sanctuary where he can live with other Muscovy ducks, according to the station. 5 The duck was captured and placed in a cage with hay and water. Fox 4 Now/YouTube Advertisement Quadrozzi told Fox 4 that the reason Jimmy was acting out was because he was a young male, 3 to 4 months old, but also because he was most likely raised by humans. 'This is a young male. Yes, that's why he's being such a punk,' Quadrozzi said. 'When you have a duck that wants to actually make physical contact with a person like that…it's kind of a given that it was hand raised by someone,' he added.

Create Account A feral Muscovy duck has been wandering the streets of a Cape Coral neighbourhood displaying aggressive behaviour and terrorizing people with sneak attacks and attempted break-ins, Fox 4 News reported. James Sepulveda, an area resident for nearly three decades, was one of the duck's victims. 'I sit on my porch, 7 to 7:30 at this time of the year to catch a sunset, you know, some sun, and I had my eyes closed. All of a sudden, I felt a jab on my hand, and it was bleeding,' Sepulveda told Fox 4 News, displaying his bandaged hand. The resident allowed the outlet to film inside his home and Fox 4 News promptly captured footage of the duck threateningly lurking outside the door. 'He's waiting for me,' Sepulveda said, cracking the door to reveal the black bird. Your noon-hour look at what's happening in Toronto and beyond.

'I stood up and I made some noises, thinking it would go away,' he told the outlet, adding, 'Next thing I know, its wings come out, you know, like it's going to attack me.' Reporter Bella Line was also chased by the duck after arriving to interview residents. 'A Muscovy duck has been chasing people who live on this street, and when they couldn't get the help they needed, they called me, and I saw the duck's rage firsthand,' she said. Sepulveda told Fox 4 News he wants to 'get rid' of the duck, noting, 'They're actually committing injury to individuals.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said that Muscovy ducks aren't native to the state but instead come from 'Mexico, Central America, South America, and some parts of Texas.' The agency said it has specific regulations in place due to the problems the ducks can create, including 'competition with native species, damage to property, and transmission of disease.' But it can't eliminate them on residents' behalf. 'The FWC does not remove nuisance Muscovy ducks,' according to the agency's website. 'Removal of ducks can be done by the landowner or by a hired nuisance wildlife trapper with landowner permission.' Muscovy ducks, the FWC told Fox 4 News, 'are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, but the US Fish and Wildlife Service has issued a Control Order (USFWS 50 CFR 21.54) allowing control of Muscovy ducks and their nests and eggs in areas outside their natural range.'
