Those in positions of authority at La Liga team Sevilla will not be present at this weekend's matchup with Barcelona. Mundo Deportivo claims that this is the case, using the ongoing "Negreira case" as justification. As many will undoubtedly remember, Sevilla's board said in September that they would not be attending any of the events surrounding the team's La Liga away trip to Barcelona. The Nervionenses issued a statement outlining their reasons for declining the invitation to use an executive box at Montjuïc as well as the customary pre-match boardroom meal.

Yunus Musah had a fantastic night, scoring his first goal for the United States against Panama in front of new manager Mauricio Pochettino on Saturday.

Musah was thrilled to have been given a new position by Pochettino and was ready to commend his manager for making the bold choice to change things up.

"Having a coach who is well-versed in my background and who has a great deal of faith in me is fantastic. I simply have so much gratitude.
Musah will probably get another opportunity to add his name to the scoreboard on Tuesday night when the US plays Mexico in a friendly match, if that can even be considered when the two CONCACAF heavyweights square off.
After Marlon Fossey, Weston McKennie, Ricardo Pepi, Christian Pulisic, and Zack Steffen returned to their clubs on Sunday morning, Musah might be a crucial contributor for Pochettino against El Tri.
