Professional Soccer Team Somehow Fails To Score On 5 vs. 1
Down 0-1 in stoppage time yesterday in a Swiss Super League match against Young Boys, FC Vaduz sent nearly everybody forward in attack. When that attacked was repelled, it left Vaduz facing what you see in the thumbnail above: an unprecedented five on one for Young Boys. But with a wealth of profita...

Notts County Ladies Use Fake Argument And Trickeration On Free-Kick Goal
Why are Notts County lining up that free kick like that? Seems kind of weird. Huh, it looks like Laura Basset's going to run right into her teammates. Wait, now her teammate jumped out at her and they're arguing. They better cut it out and get back to...ooooh, I see what you did there! Clever!...
Qatar Forced A Bunch Of Migrant Workers To Run A Marathon
Not only is the Qatari government killing scores of (let’s not mince words) slaves in order to build the infrastructure necessary to host the 2022 World Cup, it also forced a bunch of them to participate in a state-sponsored “megamarathon” in an attempt to set a dopey Guinness World Record. Many of ...

Brazilian Player Red Carded For Flipping Double Bird At Booing Fans
Internacional's Fabrício is sort of like the Brazilian soccer league's Ron Artest, apparently. In his newest display of losing his mind on the pitch, the full back stopped playing in the middle of a game to shout at fans for booing him, then waved two middle fingers at his verbal assailants before t...
Diego Maradona Prepares For Coming Alien Invasion With Boxing Dummy
Just know that, when the giant blue Martians that have been hibernating miles deep in the Earth's crust finally emerge and begin their assault on this wonderful thing we call human civilization, Diego Maradona has been training and will knock those sons of bitches right back to where they came fro...
Vincent Kompany Took An Extremely Audacious Shot Today
I could be convinced that this is the greatest shot attempt in the history of soccer. Once Vincent Kompany continued to juggle the ball forward, he had to attempt this, right? You can't juggle the ball forward 15 yards and not attempt this shot. You can't juggle the ball forward 15 yards and the...
Andros Townsend Waves Hi To Media Hater After Great International Goal
Andros Townsend isn't a great player, but then again, England aren't a great team, so it isn't too much of a surprise that the Spurs winger was called up during this international break, nor that he managed to blast home the tying goal in today's 1-1 draw against Italy. Well, not a surprise to us....

Adorable Soccer Man Juan Mata Has The Most Adorable Blog
Just looking at Juan Mata gives the impression that you're looking into the eyes of the sweetest, most helpful librarian who just oh-by-the-way happens to be a phenomenal soccer player. His slight build, his boyish face paradoxically covered with a lumberjack's stubble, his impressive command of Eng...
Thierry Henry Shows He's Still Got It With Ridiculous Fake-Shot Pass
Few things in sports are better than that collective "Ohhhhh" you hear from a soccer crowd when a player pulls off a stunning bit of skill like Thierry Henry's little move here. Commentator guy is right, even if it was only in the Steven Gerrard Testimonial, this is "one of the most ridiculous passe...
El Salvador Team, Fans Baffled By Wrong Anthem At FedEx Field
Phenomenal job by the organizers of the today's Argentina-El Salvador friendly, which was played at FedEx Field outside of Washington, D.C. That song you're listening to isn't the Salvadoran national anthem, but probably the Manx (that'd be the Isle of Man) national anthem. Considering that over 1...
Outrageous Soccer Fight Features Head Kick, Brawl, Chase Scene
This might be the wildest, most bizarre sports fight I have ever seen. Massive brawls between teams or alcohol-fueled fights in the stands I get, but this? Why did the goalkeeper trip the celebrating player, why did the second guy trip him, and WHY DID THE THIRD GUY COME OVER AND KICK HIM IN THE F...
Gareth Bale Strikes Perfect Free Kick To Score For Wales
It is a dreary day for soccer fans, with the usual slate of dozens of club matches interrupted for a handful of international ones. But at least we have some competitive Euro 2016 qualifiers, where we can see the Welsh Gareth Bale unleash this free kick goal against Israel. With a golden generatio...
Zlatan Uses Powerful Hypnosis To Force Keeper Into Shocking Mistake
Some sort of devious eye magic only known by the most learned of warlocks is the only rational explanation for why Moldova's keeper decided to play an inch-perfect cross off of Zlatan Ibrahimović's forehead for the Swede to redirect into the goal (warning: autoplay video):...
Harry Kane Scores In His International Debut, Is Soon To Be Crowned King
All week leading up to today's England-Lithuania Euro 2016 Qualifier, the only thing anyone could talk about was Harry Kane. Will he start? Should he start? Where will he play?
