Damn, Even We Have To Admit That This Seattle Sounders Goal Is A Beauty
You know how we feel about MLS, but still, even we can't front on a team goal of this quality. This is a textbook three man weave the likes of which you'd be happy to pull off in training, let alone a match. Pure class. Bravo, Sounders....

New York City FC's goalkeeper Josh Saunders suffered this ugly head injury in today's season opener against Orlando City. While corralling a free kick, an opposing player runs into him, carrying him back towards goal where he drills the back of his head into the post. Here's a GIF of the blow:...

Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has had a rough go of it these past few years.

Not that this is any real secret, but it deserves to be said as often as possible: MLS is rigged.
