If I’m James Corden, I’m watching my back like a paranoid mafioso. This prank he pulled on David Beckham is absolutely brutal, and there’s no way Beckham’s not going to retaliate in some fashion.
Brazilian striker Anderson Lopes played his first match for Consadole Sapporo in the J1 League on Friday, and the attacker came away with four goals and an important lesson in the layout of his club’s home ground, the Sapporo Dome.
With Consadole leading Shimizu S-Pulse 2-1 in the 49th minute, Anderson Lopes scored his second of the match and promptly went to celebrate with supporters behind the goal. Unfortunately, his jump over the advertising hoardings was quickly met with the realization that he faced a 10-foot drop to the hard ground below.
Last night’s Saturday Night Live was hosted by English actor Idris Elba, and the show used his presence to cast him as an injured player making an appearance on Sky Sports.
The GOAT has made his Hollywood presence felt across the country by joining Jimmy Kimmel again, about a year after Zlatan Ibrahimovic's memorable first appearance on the late-night talk show.
Ibra reflected on his first season with the Galaxy, being named captain and family life in Los Angeles.
He confirmed there is something he is not good at. Surprisingly, its Sweden’s second greatest accomplishment: IKEA.
“Yes, soccer is mainly white.”
“We still have so far to go.”
“You wouldn’t say that if it was a white player.”
Celebrating Black History Month, Major League Soccer held another roundtable on black soccer in America.
Soccer is the world’s game, the most beautifully diverse sport bringing countries and cultures of all kinds together. But in the U.S. soccer remains, for the most part, a sport of the suburbs, a white sport even.
Chertanovo Moscow does things a bit differently. With an average age of 20.2, the youngest club in the Russia Football National League (second division) is currently in fourth place with a second consecutive promotion a realistic goal. The recent addition to the first team of Sergey Pinyaev highlights the club’s commitment to youth.
Valentine’s Day is a time for Hallmark to sell cards, Russell Stover to sell chocolates and your local florist to sell flowers. It’s a time for partners to celebrate their love and single people to dwell on their wretched singleness. It’s not a time for this idiot playing FIFA.
To all the FIFA players with significant others out there this Valentine’s Day, please do not treat your partner like this idiot playing FIFA.
Some of these 2019 MLS kits are looking pretty tasty. Given the time constraints placed on FC Cincinnati after being announced as an expansion club last May, we think the new boys still pulled off an admirable look for Year One.

Tottenham stayed lurking in the Premier League title race with a 3-1 victory over Leicester City on Sunday, but it wasn’t that straightforward. Dávinson Sánchez gave Spurs the lead on 33 minutes, but they wouldn’t improve on that advantage until after the hour mark, and minutes before that, things should have been level.
A foray forward from the Foxes ultimately resulted in James Maddison being barged over by Jan Vertonghen, and Leicester used the resulting stoppage in play to bring on Jamie Vardy for Demarai Gray.
As is customary, FC Barcelona walked out to "El Cant del Barça" during Wednesday's Copa del Rey semifinal first leg against Real Madrid.

Wednesday night's announced attendance was 92,008, so the result was staggering.
