Saúl Ñíguez Dances Through Bayern Defense, Gives Atlético 1-0 Lead
Check out this ridiculous run right here, and remember that Saúl Ñíguez is a central midfielder not at all known for his dribbling ability, and marvel at his awkward grace as he skates by Bayern Munich’s whole defense and scores:...

Diego Simeone Suspended Rest Of La Liga Season For Bizarre Ball-Throwing Incident
The bit of unsportsmanlike conduct you see above comes from Atlético Madrid’s home match against Málaga this past weekend. As you can see, with Málaga in behind Atleti’s defense and acres of green ahead, some ball boy tosses another ball onto the pitch, presumably to distract the players and/or bait...

Two Butt Teams Combine To Play Butt Game
Real Madrid and Manchester City—two teams that kind of suck in similar ways, and are lucky to even be here thanks to their fortunate draws leading up to this point—met in the Champions League semifinal today. It should’ve been one of the best matches of the year, pitting two greats of Europe in a cl...

The Best Team In England Will Not Win The Premier League

Gareth Bale Makes A Totally Convincing Case That He And Ronaldo Are Buds
Gareth Bale is out to set the record straight. He’s heard all the rumors that he and Cristiano Ronaldo don’t get along. He’s even seen the efforts of his agent to disabuse fans of the notion that the Bale-Ronaldo partnership is anything but jolly twisted into evidence of the exact opposite by a conn...

The Best Party In England Is A Leicester City Game
Nobody who showed up to the stadium or tuned in to watch Leicester play Swansea this weekend would’ve come away overly impressed by the quality of the game itself. Leicester did play well, dominating from the first whistle until the last, and sent four goals past the Swans’ keeper. But what made thi...

Here It Is, The Bicycle Kick To End All Bicycle Kicks
That Javi Gómez, of third division Spanish club UD Socuéllamos, managed to score with this insane, volleyed overhead kick is crazy enough. But that he even thought to shoot there, when probably no one in the world save maybe Zlatan Ibrahimović would’ve considered it, makes it all the more spectacula...

Dirtnado In The Infield!
Is this a thing? I’ve seen little dust devils pop up and die out in dry areas from time to time in my life, but are huge dirt tornados like this, which formed in the middle of a college softball game between Lynchburg and Bridgewater last weekend, like, normal?...

The Resurrection Of Fernando Torres
Fernando Torres does not suck anymore. It may sound like fairly unremarkable praise to say that a rich and famous professional athlete manages to wring enough competence out of the limbs and lungs that have made him a millionaire dozens of times over to not be actively bad at his job. But for Torres...

Aston Villa Owner Randy Lerner Takes Blame For Relegation
“I write to Villa supporters,” Aston Villa’s widely detested owner (and the Cleveland Browns’ widely detested former owner) Randy Lerner says in an open letter to fans today, “to make clear that this relegation lies at my feet and no one else’s.” Well, you don’t say!...

Liverpool Hulk-Smashed Everton
Check this out. In today’s Merseyside Derby, Liverpool beat Everton 4-0. Now, that scoreline by itself is bad. But to really get a semblance of how resounding the Pool Boys’ win was, look at these astoundingly one-sided stats:...

Chinese Keeper Goes All Superman, Flies Around To Save Three Would-Be Goals
Most videos posted here about goalkeepers tend to be of the lowlight variety. But today, let us celebrate Yang Qipeng of China’s Tianjin Teda for this stretch of heroic saves in a match against Liaoning Whowin....

It's Not The End Of The World For Barcelona–Yet
Well, it was a good run while it lasted. After basically an entire calendar year of almost—almost—nothing but unbridled joy, Barcelona, their fans, and the media covering the club, have switched back to their natural setting: pure freak-out mode....

Dele Alli's Horrific Miss Breaks Mauricio Pochettino's Brain
In case you’re wondering whether Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino’s reaction here, where you can see him going through two of the Five Stages of Grief in about as many seconds, was justified by the play he had just witnessed, the answer is yeah, pretty much:...
