USL side FC Cincinnati hasn't even played a proper competitive match yet, but that hasn't stopped them from scoring an absolute worldie. In a friendly match against Icelandic side KR Reykjavik, a long ball was cleared only as far as Corben Bone (yes, that is his real name), who took it on the volley first time. The end result? Let's just say that Reykjavik were totally boned. Sorry, that was bad.
Today in How Not To Take A Free Kick, we have Generic Yellow Team trying to put one in against Ajax in the Netherlands, and, you guessed it, failing terribly.
Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho is one of the happiest dudes in the Premier League. We offer as evidence this video of Sakho zooming around Paris on a motorbike talking to himself in French. He spies former PSG and current France international teammate Blaise Matuidi standing by a car and just has to pull over and say hello.

14 touches; two goals; three assists. Talk about clinical. Valencia smashed Rapid Wien six-nil in the Europa League, and to say that youngster Santi Mina was on fire is akin to saying that Donald Trump is a little offputting.
The announcer's call was as amazing as the volley goal. Aritz Aduriz of Athletic Club Bilbao scored a stunning volley against Olympique de Marseille in Europa League. Aduriz absolutely blasted the volley from 35 yards out. His 53rd minute goal was the game winner for Bilbao.
The second league for this match up is on February 24th as Marseille travel to Spain.
The late 19th century to the end of the apartheid era in South Africa saw the rise of townships, urban living areas, built on the periphery of towns and cities. Reserved for non-whites, these sprawling and often underdeveloped slums were contrived as separate living spaces for working class and unemployed black, colored and Indian inhabitants.
Townships were also referred to as locations or lokasie in Afrikaans. Lokasie gave way to the colloquial term kasi, a word which now encompasses the flavor and distinct style of the townships.
We'll say this of Andy Gray, we admire the man's confidence. Gray was caught on live television pretending to translate a David Luiz interview from French. It was actually in Portuguese.

There will be no Internet after this. This is the end of the Internet. The internet has reached its peak, and there is nowhere left to go. It's over. Goodbye Internet.

The Columbus Crew’s latest away kit has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. Intended to pay homage to the Columbus City Flag, the jersey has been likened to yellow snow (don't eat it!), a printer test page and a neon snow cone. Here’s the breakdown of the kit as detailed by the Crew and kit providers Adidas:
Aspiring goalies, pay attention: here's a lesson on what not to do with a soccer ball. If you think a keeper juggle is an appropriate soccer move, there may be no hope for you. Unless you are Rene Higuita. Lincoln City keeper Paul Farman should have already known trying to juggle was a bad idea. He did it anyway, and now he may never see the field again.
