Tyler Adams urges USMNT to lose to Mexico in Gold Cup final
USMNT Captain Tyler Adams breaks down their problems in Mexico's Golden Cup final defeat.
Exercise seriously
Al Nassr faced Al Ahli in the Saudi Super Cup final in Hong Kong on Saturday.
The season opening match will leave Cristiano Ronaldo hoping to win his first official trophy as an inclusion player.
Ronaldo won a championship assist for João Félix in the semifinals, and Al Nassr beat Al Ittihad 2-1 despite Al Nassr defeating Al Ittihad with a red card in the first half.
Al Ahli spent some time in the semi-finals against Al Qadsiah, and Franck Kessié gained support to help get a comfortable 5-1 victory.

Even without Mané, NASSR should feel confident entering Saturday's final after staying unbeaten in the last seven meetings of Al Ahli.
NASSR head coach Jorge Jesus said Friday he expects a crowd of Ronaldo fans to improve his team in the finals.
Jesus said: “I hope the stadium can look at Cristiano and our other good players.”
“The crowd that supports Ronaldo has provided us with positive energy. We are playing against a very strong team, but I am very confident that we will win.”
This is everything you need to know before the game.
