The ongoing soap opera between Landon Donovan and Jurgen Klinsmann took a rather interesting turn of events today as Alexi Lalas and Grant Wahl, in their series of tweets, pulled another layer back on this in-house rivalry in US Soccer. LD told

Well that title isn’t entirely true. It’s more like, no one wants to PAY to see FIFA’s new movie. The film, United Passions, about the history of FIFA and includes some of the most blatant propaganda since the Cold War, cost the Federation around $27 million and has only made around $200k in the box […]

This already happens in the United States with the International Champions Cup with Liverpool vs. Manchester City and Liverpool vs. Manchester United as examples from this past season, but the vast […]

1) Leonardo Bonucci vs. Roma The two best teams in Serie A faced off and the game didn’t disappoint. Many, including me, expected a low scoring affair considering that in 10 games between both teams this season, only a single goal has been allowed. What happened was a goal fest that ended with fireworks. With […]

In what could be the sequel to Hans Moleman’s “Man Getting Hit By Football,” we have “Man Getting Hit By Boot” starring Kevin De Bruyne. In this edition, he takes a boot to the groin. Credit to De Bruyne for not being fazed by taking a solid object to the junk and go about his […]

Even this shove by Arsene Wenger to Jose Mourinho couldn’t save Arsenal as they lost 2-0 to the Chelsea powerhouse. Wenger now is winless in 12 games (0-5-7) against Mourinho. I don’t know about you, but I am definitely looking forward to the next time these two teams meet.

In case you missed it, here’s Yaya Toure’s goal vs. Aston Villa. The needle threading is insanely tight and it’s just a brilliant goal.

Belgian World Cup player and possible actor who played “The Shermanator” in the American Pie movies, Kevin De Bruyne, scored a stunner of a goal in today’s UEFA Europa League game against Lille. The Wolfsburg winger showed today that he’s more than someone who just crushes America’s hope in the World Cup and be a […]

OOH, that looked bad just watching this. First, glad Alexis Sanchez isn’t hurt. Second, I don’t know how Felipe Melo didn’t get a red card for that.

It’ll be tough for them to keep this up but the Cinderellas, Ludogorets, are beating Real Madrid and saved a Cristiano Ronaldo PK. The goal The save

1) Graziano Pelle vs. QPR There aren’t too many things better than a perfectly executed bicycle kick. Graziano Pelle gave Southampton the lead by volleying it to himself and then in pure FIFA video game action, bicycled it into the back of the net. Definitely an artistic display and is a candidate for goal of […]

Eliaquim Mangala is getting a chance to play for Manchester City and break into the first team. He’s had a great game so far in terms of passing and marking but he’s made two wild errors that got Hull two goals. This beautiful finish was the first error, allowing a PK was his second. This […]
