El trofeo de la copa del mundo comenzará su gira por américa latina en territorio mexicano..

La Copa del Mundo llega a México y comenzará el Trophy Tour de Coca-Cola el sábado 15 de octubre en Iztapalapa, donde estará todo el fin de semana. La Gira del Trofeo terminará en Catar para el próximo mes de noviembre de cara al Mundial Qatar 2022.

Continuará su gira por México durante la próxima semana en las ciudades de Monterrey y Guadalajara. Toda la cobertura estará disponible en las redes sociales de TUDN.

El Trophy Tour de Coca-Cola iniciará en las instalaciones de la Alcaldía Iztapalapa en Utopía Meyehualco el 15 y 16 de octubre dentro del Fan Fest. Continuará su gira en el norte del país en Cintermex Monterrey el 19 de octubre y la última parada será en la Expo Guadalajara el 20 de octubre.

El Trophy Tour de Coca-Cola llegó a un total de 51 países y tiene el objetivo de ser parte de las 211 federaciones para el Mundial del 2030.

Colin Smith, director de Operaciones de la Copa Mundial de la FIFA, declaró que se espera que los seguidores de todas las edades puedan conocer el trofeo.

"El impulso de la Gira del Trofeo seguirá yendo a más al visitar por primera vez todas las naciones clasificadas para la Copa Mundial de la FIFA, donde los seguidores de todas las edades podrán disfrutar de un anticipo de la emoción que nos espera. Confiamos en que nos acompañen en Cata a finales de este año para vivir la celebración del fútbol en toda su esencia", recalcó.

México es la primera parada de América Latina antes de llegar a Brasil, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador y Costa Rica.

¿Cuándo nace la Copa del Mundo de la FIFA?

Si bien los Mundiales comenzaron en Uruguay en 1930, antes el trofeo que se otorgaba al campeón era denominado Jules Rimet en honor al presidente de la federación internacional de futbol que hizo posible el torneo mundial a nivel de selecciones.

Ese trofeo sufrió un par de robos y una desaparición misteriosa y el último que lo ganó fue la Selección de Brasil en el Mundial de México 1970 con el astro Pelé al frente y con el Estadio Azteca como marco de un flamante campeón.

La primera Copa del Mundo de la FIFA como se le conoce en la actualidad la conquistó Alemania Federal en 1974 tras imponerse a Países Bajos y ha sido el máximo galardón hasta la fecha en el mundo del futbol y el cual estará de visita en México en los próximos días.

Taylor Pendrith, eyeing first PGA Tour win, leads Byron Nelson

• Associated Press

McKINNEY, Texas -- Taylor Pendrith has been here before -- holding or sharing a lead after three rounds on the PGA Tour.

The Canadian was one of six among the top 10 on the leaderboard seeking a first tour victory at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson .

Pendrith chipped in twice for consecutive eagles to kick-start an 8-under 63 on Saturday for a 1-shot lead over second-round leader Jake Knapp .

"I have no idea," Pendrith said when asked if he'd ever had back-to-back eagles, which came on the par-5 fifth and par-4 sixth holes as he finished at 19-under 194. "I don't think so. Maybe a first."

It was the third time on the PGA Tour this season and vaulted him ahead of Knapp. Pendrith's lead was two before Knapp birdied the par-5 18th for a 67.

Ben Kohles (65) and first-round leader Matt Wallace (67) were 2 shots off the lead, 1 stroke ahead of Alex Noren and Kelly Kraft , playing near his Dallas home at the TPC Craig Ranch in this suburb.

Troy Merritt , the only two-time PGA Tour winner among the top 10, shot 70 and was at 14 under with three others, including one-time winner Kevin Tway . The son of 1986 PGA Championship winner Bob Tway shot 64, while Vince Whaley and Byeong Hun An each shot 66.

Wallace and Knapp, a rookie won the Mexico Open in February, are the others with PGA Tour victories.

Pendrith settled for second from the top of the third-round leaderboard at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in 2022. He was in the same position at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship earlier that season before a 76 left him in a tie for fifth.

"I think just stay patient and play my own game and don't get ahead of myself," Pendrith said. "Make as many birdies as you can, because I think it'll take a low one tomorrow."

Pendrith was working on a low one after a 26-foot chip shot rolled around the hole and went in, then a 41-yarder bounced about 25 feet from the hole and rolled in with almost perfect speed.

The 32-year-old, who has won twice on the Canadian tour, is 7 under on those two holes. They were the first two of five consecutive birdies in the second round.

"Obviously, a bonus for both of those to go in," Pendrith said. "Two really good shots. First one had a little bit of steam so maybe got a little lucky to drop."

Knapp was coming off consecutive 64s and had his second bogey-free round with a pair of birdies on each nine.

The 29-year-old Californian, who was working as a security guard back home three years ago, had to hang on during a rough final round for the win in Mexico. Now he'll be chasing while still playing in the final group.

"I think I do best when I kind of do leaderboard watch and I see what other guys are doing," Knapp said. "You see what guys are doing in the morning and you get an idea of maybe how the course is playing."

Wallace, a 34-year-old Englishman with 10 international victories, including four on the European tour, answered his second bogey of the week on 16 with birdies on the final two holes.

"I don't know many people around me [that] have won more tournaments around the world than myself," said Wallace, whose tour victory was in the Dominican Republic last year. "Not that that's a big brag, but I feel like I know how to get the job done."

Kohles, who was born in Dallas but moved when he was 10, had a 263-yard second shot to 12 feet and made the eagle putt on the par-5 ninth for a 5-under 31 on the front. He bogeyed the par-4 11th before the last two of his five birdies.

The 34-year-old shot 73 playing in the final group in Puerto Rico in March, finishing fifth. Kohles has three career top-10 finishes.

Kris Kim , a 16-year-old amateur making his PGA Tour debut, nearly had a hole-in-one on the 225-yard fourth hole, the ball rolling within inches of the cup. The son of South Korean-born former LPGA golfer Ji-Hyun Suh shot 70 and was 8 under.

Kim, who is from England and playing on a sponsor exemption from the South Korean company and tournament title sponsor CJ Group, was set to become the youngest to play the final round of a PGA Tour event since Guan Tianlang at the 2014 CIMB Classic. Tianlang was 16 years, eight days old.

At 16 years, seven months, Kim surpassed Jordan Spieth as the youngest player to make the cut at the Nelson. Spieth was two months shy of his 17th birthday when made his first PGA Tour start at his hometown event in 2010, and tied for 16th. Kim was tied for 51st.

U.S. and Mexico drop bid to host 2027 World Cup, two others remain

The two nations will instead pivot to try to host the 2031 tournament., by ronald blum | the associated press • published april 29, 2024 • updated on april 29, 2024 at 7:10 pm.

The U.S. Soccer Federation and its Mexican counterpart dropped their joint bid to host the 2027 Women's World Cup on Monday and said they instead will focus on trying to host the 2031 tournament.

The decision left a proposal from Brazil and a joint Germany-Netherlands-Belgium plan competing to be picked for 2027 by the FIFA Congress that meets May 17 in Bangkok.

The USSF said the 2031 bid will call for FIFA to invest equally in the men's and women's World Cups.

FIFA said last year it planned to spend $896 million in prize money for the 2026 World Cup in the U.S., Mexico and Canada. The governing body devoted $110 million in prize money for last year's Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

“Hosting a World Cup tournament is a huge undertaking — and having additional time to prepare allows us to maximize its impact across the globe,” USSF President Cindy Parlow Cone said in a statement. “I’m proud of our commitment to provide equitable experiences for the players, fans and all our stakeholders. Shifting our bid will enable us to host a record-breaking Women’s World Cup in 2031 that will help to grow and raise the level of the women’s game both here at home as well as across the globe."

In detailing the bid in December, the USSF proposed U.S. sites from among the same 11 to be used in the 2026 men’s World Cup. Mexico listed Guadalajara, Mexico City and Monterrey — its three sites for the men’s World Cup — and in addition for 2027 listed as possibilities Leon and Querétaro.

“We feel that moving our bid back to 2031 will allow us to promote and build up to the most successful Women’s World Cup ever,” MFF President Ivar Sisnieg said in a statement. "The strength and universality of our professional women’s leagues, coupled with our experience from organizing the 2026 World Cup, means that we will be able to provide the best infrastructure as well as an enthusiastic fan base that will make all the participating teams feel at home and to put together a World Cup that will contribute to the continued growth of women’s football.”

Al Ain and Yokohama F. Marinos set up winner-takes-all final in Asia

Pachuca (MEX), Club America (MEX) and Columbus Crew (USA) continue their bid to be among the 32 teams at the Mundial de Clubes FIFA 25™ (FIFA Club World Cup 2025™) when the north American trio take to the pitch for their 2024 Concacaf Champions Cup semi-final second legs this week.

With Monterrey (MEX) and Club Leon (MEX) already through to the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 as recent continental champions, both Pachuca and America know that – given the two clubs per country limit, excluding the champions pathway – there is only one route to joining their compatriots in the United States next year and it starts with trying to knock each other out. The duo head into their Concacaf Champions Cup semi-final second leg on Tuesday locked at 1-1 and aware they have to go on to lift the trophy in the final on 2 June to claim a FIFA Club World Cup 2025 place.

The same goes for Columbus Crew, who meet 2021 champions Monterrey on Wednesday in the other semi-final second leg. The Crew lead 2-1 after the first leg in the US, but need to become Concacaf champions this season to join 2022 continental title-winners and fellow MLS franchise Seattle Sounders (USA) at the tournament next year. If Monterrey lift the trophy again, then another MLS side, Philadelphia Union (USA), would be the beneficiary and qualify via the ranking pathway .

There is a winner-takes-all AFC Champions League final in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) after Al Ain (UAE) and Yokohama F. Marinos (JPN) won their semi-final ties.

In addition to being crowned Asian champions, the victor of the two-legged final (1st leg 11 May, return on 25 May) will claim the one remaining place available to AFC teams at the tournament.

They will join former champions Al Hilal (KSA) and Urawa Reds (JPN), as well as the one team qualifying via the ranking pathway , Ulsan HD (KOR), in the tournament in the United States next year.
