Lionel Messi experienced a particularly moving moment tonight (between Wednesday and Thursday) in the MLS league, when he scored his first goal since the death of his father, Jorge Messi. The Argentine star found the net in Inter Miami's 2:2 draw against Philadelphia Union, in a game where he was involved in both of his team's goals.

Dadi Ben Dayan told 103fm about the Israeli influx to the USA: "People tend to underestimate, but Americans are athletes first and foremost. If Turgeman and Baribo score 25 or 30 goals every year, I am sure it will catch the eyes of scouts from Europe."

Two weeks after two of its fans shouted "Death to Israel" at Dor Turgeman during an MLS match, Montreal suspended them indefinitely and also punished the fan organizations: "There is no place for antisemitism, racism, and hatred of any kind."

The Maccabi Tel Aviv striker has finalized all details with the Colorado Rapids, the American league management needs to approve it, and it seems he has already played his farewell match for the yellow team. His entourage estimates that he will fly to the United States on Tuesday.

Maccabi Tel Aviv estimates that the deal will go through: Sayed Abu Farchi will be able to earn up to 880 thousand dollars per season in the first two years, his intended team is convinced that he will contribute greatly to them - and that they will sell him for a much higher amount than the purchase price.
