Some Indonesian Guy Named Terens Puhiri Is Apparently The Fastest Man In The World
I don’t know much about Indonesian soccer, not even enough to be properly impressed when Wikipedia describes 21-year-old Borneo FC forward Terens Puhiri as “The Next Boaz Solossa,” but what I do know is what fast looks like. And this guy sure is fast:...
Maybe Arsenal Aren't Doomed Yet After All
If you were diagramming the worst possible scenario (which, Arsenal being Arsenal, would double as the most probable forecast for their coming campaign) for the Gunners’ season this year, you would’ve had this year being one of woe....
The Face Of Horror
A squirrel ran onto the field before today’s Manchester City-Wolves game. After the grounds crew chased it around for a while, they eventually managed to wrangle it....
Lazio FC Will Wear Shirts With Anne Frank's Face To Combat Anti-Semitism
Serie A and Lazio FC announced they’ll be taking measures to counter anti-semitism at soccer matches.

This Big Slovak Kid Straight Up Wrecked The Famed Stars Of Napoli's Attack
Highlight reels in soccer often cull together the best moves of attacking players, and for good reason. Scoring is the most important thing you can do in the sport, dribbles and passes and shots are just more aesthetically pleasing than smart defensive positioning, etc. etc. That doesn’t mean the bi...

Turkish Prime Minister Orders Investigation Into Rocky Balboa Tifo

120 Morons Arrested After Soccer Hooligans Brawl With Police In Belgium
This weekend, Club Brugge hosted and defeated Royal Antwerp in Belgium’s top soccer division. Presumably, this unremarkable feat should’ve inspired fans to calmly return to their homes afterwards. Instead, lots and lots of local Belgian and, bizarrely, foreign Dutch fans took to the streets and batt...
Everton Fire Ronald Koeman, Who Really Fucked This Up
There are a few easy ways to define the worst team in the Premier League. One of them is to find the team with the least amount of talent. Another is to find the team most likely to get relegated. Everton, despite being 18th in the table after yesterday’s 5-2 loss to Arsenal, don’t (yet) fit either ...
The Columbus <em></em>Fiasco Shows That MLS Is No Different
Earlier this week, Anthony Precourt, the San Francisco-based owner of the Columbus Crew, announced that he would pick up stakes and move the team to Austin unless the city bought him a shiny new downtown stadium.

Olivier Giroud Saves Arsenal With Absurd Golazo
Mediocre Premier League side Arsenal went to Belgrade today to take on Red Star Belgrade in some Europa League action.

Giovanni Liberti, a player with the fourth-tier Italian soccer club Turris, is in hot, yellowish water with Serie D officials.

I Can't Stop Watching This Video Of Petr Cech Slapping Ping Pong Balls Away From His Face
I don’t know if this video of Arsenal keeper Petr Cech batting away a bombardment of ping pong balls depicts the brilliant cutting edge of goalkeeper training, a fun but ultimately pointless exercise, or Arsenal’s real-life version of Blade Runner 2049's emotional baseline test, but what I do know i...
Man United Exploit Teenage Boner For Victory
Poor, poor, 18-year-old Mile Svilar made his debut for Benfica today in a game against one of the scariest teams in England. He became the youngest-ever Champions League keeper in the process, but more to the point, he made himself a target for Manchester United’s more experienced scorers....
Soccer Fan Travels Halfway Around The World To Visit Tiny Club He Plays On <i>Football Manager</i>
You’d think that Runcorn Linnets, the name of an English soccer club currently competing in the North West Counties League a whopping eight divisions below the Premier League, wouldn’t hold much importance outside of the tiny pocket of ostensible fans tucked away in northern England. You’d be wrong....
Angry Idiot Sneaks Onto Field To Berate His Team's Players
Coventry City fans don’t take losing home matches against relegation candidates too lightly, apparently. Hence this Coventry supporter making his way onto the pitch during his team’s 1-0 loss to Forest Green in England’s fourth tier to really make his displeasure felt:...
Craig Shakespeare Fired By Leicester City
To keep, or not to keep. That was the question. Whether ‘twas nobler in the mind of Leicester City’s board to suffer under a popular but mediocre manager just because his presence and style called to mind the glory days of a yore, or if the club should shit-can him in an effort to hopefully live up ...
