Here’s a question for the ages: Can Lionel Messi be considered the greatest footballer who ever lived without winning a trophy in a major international tournament?
The answer is a definitive “no.”
With the culmination of the Premier League this season calling time on two of the most enduring figures in British football over the last 15 years as they make their way across the pond, there couldn’t be a better time to open up that old question – Gerrard or Lampard?
Just after making a video asking the media to "leave him alone," Cristiano Ronaldo is starring in a new video game called "Super Stars" in which he skateboards away from the media. Ronaldo is joined by a midget-Crash-Bandicoot-looking-thing called Hugo the Troll. Hugo the Troll also skateboards. The villain in this game, who stands in for all of the media, is named Paparazzi Pete. Paparazzi Pete drives a moped while trying to take pictures of Ronaldo.
Desde hace tiempo se sospecha que Lionel Messi no es de este planeta.

The UEFA Champions League is Europe’s premier tournament. Players dream of feeling the rush of playing in that highly competitive environment where heroics for your team will be long remembered by faithful fans, A competition dominated by superstar players such as Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentina's Lionel Messi.
Very few Mexican players have had the opportunity to play in the Champions League. Mexico only has 16 well-known European-based internationals.
Jose Mourinho will need to develop a new plan for Chelsea next season — seeing as he can't park the bus anymore — after being banned by British law to drive for the next six months.
The Portuguese manager was caught by roadside speed cameras going 10mph over the 50mph limit while driving in England this past Wednesday. Because of his previous accumulation of points from traffic violations, he was no longer able to appeal for driving after this past offense.
Normally when someone says a movie is the worst movie in the history of everything, you'd take a look at Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" and see that it can get worse. This isn't the case with the FIFA propaganda film "United Passions." It somehow manages to be worse than "The Room" and that's saying something.
Don't get me wrong, Tim Roth nails it--he always does--but literally every other part of the movie fails on literally every single level. No, I am not being hyperbolic.
FIFA communications director Walter De Gregorio appeared on Swiss television and told a joke. After that, he didn't have a job anymore. The Joke?
"FIFA President Sepp Blatter, the General Secretary, and the Communications Director are in a car. Who is driving? The police."
South America’s most important and illustrious football tournament kicks off today. The Copa America 2015, live from Chile.
Interestingly, most people do not know the Copa America is actually the oldest continental football tournament in the world.
A Romanian child in a youth game scored a goal that reminded many of a certain diminutive Argentine.
