Boxing Day Begins With Nine-Goal Thriller Between Manchester City And Leicester

Manchester City and Leicester delivered a Premier League classic on Sunday by exchanging nine goals, including a four-goal salvo in the match's opening 25 minutes from Pep Guardiola's team that the Foxes reduced to a one-goal advantage over the space of 10 ridiculous second-half minutes.

Last Wednesday, Leicester had suffered crushing disappointment in a League Cup quarterfinal defeat to Liverpool. Brendan Rodgers' side had led by margins of 2-0 and 3-1 but was still eliminated in a penalty shootout. 

Chelsea Star Hakim Ziyech Won’t Attend AFCON After Being Banished From Morocco National Team

RABAT — Hakim Ziyech was the notable absentee as Morocco coach Vahid Halilhodzic on Thursday named his squad for next month's Africa Cup of Nations finals in Cameroon.

Another League Title, Another Rebuild For Norway's Most Captivating Club

Against all odds, Bodø/Glimt was just seconds away from a second consecutive Norwegian league title. Up 2-1 against SK Brann in the dying moments of injury time, Glimt just had to defend a desperation corner and they were league champions.

Do You Know What Position Christian Pulisic Plays? No One Knows Anymore Including Thomas Tuchel

Al Chucky Lozano Le Perdonamos El Gol Que Se Perdió Ante Spezia, Porque Quiere Salvar El Planeta

Napoli cayó sorpresivamente ante Spezia, uno de los sotaneros de la Serie A, y perdió terreno importante en la lucha por el título en Italia. Hirving Lozano jugó todo el partido y no hizo más que aportar al desastre navideño que sufrió su club.

Karim Benzema's One-Touch Curler Is A Gift That You Need To Unwrap

Sergio Ramos Se Demoró Dos Partidos En Recibir Su Primera Tarjeta Roja En El PSG

Cuando el PSG anunció el fichaje de Sergio Ramos, los aficionados del club celebraron la llegada de un defensor de clase mundial y con la experiencia suficiente como para llevarlos a conseguir su primera Champions League.

Sin embargo, la estadía del español en París ha sido un rotundo fiasco. La mayoría de su tiempo la pasó recuperándose de una rebelde lesión en uno de sus gemelos y ahora que ya está sano no demoró mucho en mostrar la fama de jugador sucio que lo acompaña.

Jules Koundé Earns Straight Red Card For Smashing Jordi Alba In The Face

Over the last five seasons in LaLiga, Sevilla has finished fourth three times — including last campaign with a club-record total of 77 points — without ever looking like a genuine title challenger. 

Heading into Tuesday's clash with struggling Barcelona at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in Seville — where a win would cut Real Madrid's lead at the top to just three points — the club still refused to consider the possibility of a first LaLiga title since 1946.
