Holy Shit, Look At This Atalanta Wondergoal
What a move. Watch as three Atalanta players combine to send the ball about 20 yards from the right wing into the back of the net, not letting it once touch the ground until Sassuolo's keeper picks the ball—along with his jaw—out of his goal after Germán Denis's pièce de résistance of a bicycle kick...

Bayer Leverkusen Player And His Buddies Brawl With Own Club's Security
Yesterday, Emir Spahić's Bayer Leverkusen lost to Bayern Munich in the DFB Pokal. While doing interviews after the match, Spahić apparently witnessed some of his homies he'd brought to the stadium tussling with security. Because he's really 'bout that life, he ran over to join the scrap....

God Save Queens Park Rangers, The Most Fun Bad Team In The EPL
QPR aren't very good. In fact, they're quite terrible.

But goddammit if they aren't the most ...

Eden Hazard Is Showing England What A Great Player Can Look Like
Much of what fuels England’s rabid, explosively celebratory, often masochistic, sometimes even violent devotion to soccer is the country’s unique interpretation of the game.

Ref Cancels Penalty, Brings Back Red Carded Player After Change Of Mind
