Coming so soon after Lionel Messi's five-goal CL spectacular, comparisons were inevitable. Nonsense, says Gom...
Thomas Müller Is Your Early Goal Of The Year Frontrunner
Thomas Müller's absolutely nasty goal against AS Roma yesterday is one of those goals that is going to be replayed a lot (at least by Thomas Müller and his family). Come for the great goal, stay for the Teutonic hugs! [@grantwahl]...

Sometimes we think that American sports teams have lost all grip with reality. Then we get a video like this from Europe. Honestly, I'm almost speechless.
