Watch This 13-Year-Old Score A Rooneyesque Bicycle Kick Goal
Que golazo by this adolescent from the Civitans Bengals in Arlington, Virginia. I grew up in Arlington playing soccer and not hitting bicycle kicks like this.

Plane Banner Insults Are Now Played Out In English Soccer
Last Sunday, West Ham played Wigan away in a battle to avoid relegation. Things didn't work out so well for the Hammers.

Here's a not-so-new video newly making the rounds. It's of a fight between Evgenij Alekseev and Vadim Masljanka that ends quickly. Alekseev lands the kind of kick we thought stopped working around the time Jean-Claude Van Damme stopped working. Guess not....

West Ham Can't Even Keep Its Hooligans Out Of The Team's Year-End Banquet
