- Abstract
This paper characterizes the syntactic and lexical structures of six key elements of football events based on a corpus of 15 articles in the Mexican sports newspaper Récord. This will allow us to contribute to the characterization of sports discourse in Spanish, more particularly football discourse. The results indicate that journalists referred more frequently in their articles to, in the first place, the plays on the field by employing nominal and verbal phrases; secondly, journalists referred to football players by their first name, their surname or their nickname; thirdly, journalists referred to the football teams through synonyms for the term team such as cuadro, escuadra, combinado, selección, etc.
