With England and Spain both enjoying comfortable starts to their World Cup qualifying campaigns (England sit atop Group F, Spain Group G), the two nations played out a meaningless, feel good friendly at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday.

Polish striker Adam Fraczczak just wasn’t himself out there. The guy was playing like Betty White while the opposition, Lechia Gdansk, enjoyed a 1-0 lead. His teammates were on his back, but Fraczczak just couldn't get going while his tummy rumbled.

Hi, and welcome to Canada! We’re sooorry about what happened in your general election, but don’t say we didn’t warn you — what, with your love of s***-kickers and deking social responsibility.

Football has evolved over the last few decades with domestic leagues around the world gaining more prominence — as well as trying to set themselves apart by being completely original or unconventional.

Every country around the world is always trying to find new and innovative ways to make their national league unique, whether that means changing the rules from year to year or giving in to fan demands. Regardless of the reason, there's a growing list of competitions from Asia to North America that constantly leave people wondering just how you win the league.
