Keeper Scores Amazing, Last-Second Bicycle Kick, Caps It With Even Better Celebration
Goalkeeper goals are always special for the simple fact that it’s always great when a goalkeeper scores.

Paul Pogba Finally Played Like Paul Pogba
Most every great player has a signature move, a thing they do to or with or around the ball that immediately clarifies for you that that one of 10 uniformly colored little blurs out there running with the ball is in fact, say, Arjen Robben and not Philipp Lahm. (In that instance, it’s Robben’s dangl...

Bárbara Latorre Scores Barcelona's <em></em>Goal Of The Season For The Women's Team

Xherdan Shaqiri's Left Foot Had A Hell Of A Game
It seems almost quaint now to remember that last summer, the fallen wonderkid Xherdan Shaqiri at first rejected, before accepting, the bejeweled life raft Stoke City tossed him in order to rescue him from Inter’s bench and the career obsolescence that loomed dangerously close. Stoke are a mainstay i...

Hey, Cristiano Ronaldo Scored A Pretty Cool Goal!
Well, well, would you look at this.
