USL Championship News
Fernández was subbed on in the 79th minute of El Paso's USL Cup match against New Mexico United on Saturday night.
The gap between the end of the Champions League final and the start of the World Cup can feel like a gaping void. But the beautiful game never sleeps.

The United Soccer League and the USL Players Association have reached a tentative agreement on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) for players in the USL-Championship.
The USL Championship season opened Friday, but play halted immediately as Lexington SC and Louisville City FC players stood motionless for one minute to protest stalled CBA negotiations.
