Spanish Soccer Officials Believe This Is What Match-Fixing Looks Like

Sevilla's Michael Krohn-Dehli Suffers Super Gnarly Knee Injury

IFK Göteborg were set to host Malmö for a regularly scheduled, 90-minute Swedish league match yesterday.

Leicester's Manager Is Deeply Moved By Messages From Fans
Claudio Ranieri is impossible to hate. Not only has he masterminded Leicester City’s miracle year, one of the most improbable underdog seasons in the history of sports, but he’s done so with such easy-going charm, shrugging off pressure and always deflecting credit to his players. It’s won him as ma...

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.

Dog On The Field
Have you ever wanted to check out a Copa Libertadores game? Not as much as this dog here, you haven’t. The good boy in question made the absolute most of his time on the pitch, runnin’, yippin’, hootin’, hollerin’, and jumpin’ until he was carried off like a little baby. Even as he was being whisked...

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.

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.

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.

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...
