Here's a tip: if you're at a match and you want a player to give you their jersey, bring something to bribe them with, like pork.

Hey, it worked on Sergio Ramos.

Is Zinedine Zidane A Great Manager Or Just A Club Figurehead?

Real Madrid’s 3-0 victory over Real Sociedad has silenced many critics, especially after both Sevilla and Barcelona dropped points. Real now have a four-point lead with a game in hand at the top of La Liga. But such is the nature of the beast at the Santiago Bernabeu that Zinedine Zidane is still facing questions over a poor January that included a stretch of one win in five matches and elimination from the Copa del Rey. 

Cristiano Ronaldo Is Wearing Sunglasses

Cristiano Ronaldo is the king of footballer brooding tweet selfies. Here's one with his head in a bush. Here's one on a couch/bed thing in a very uncomfortable-looking position. Here's one with him wearing a coat incorrectly.

Cristiano Ronaldo Said A Bad Word

Cristiano Ronaldo is a nearly perfect human. He's chiseled, rich, famous and very good at reminding us that he is all of those things. He is still human, however, and just like all humans he occasionally loses his temper and becomes a pottymouth.

That's what happened when, recently, he made a (rare) poor touch and was booed by his own fans at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

La Liga's Refusal To Use Goal-Line Technology Comes Back To Haunt Barcelona

Real Madrid’s mini-crisis heading into the weekend was completely reversed in a matter of hours. First, Barcelona travelled to Sevilla to play Real Betis. In a match that Barca were heavy favorites in, they found themselves trailing 1-0 in the 79th minute.

The Santiago Bernabeu's Ungrateful Jeering Of Cristiano Ronaldo Is Ridiculous

2017 has just begun, and it’s already been extremely unkind to both Real Madrid and 2016 Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo.

The current club world champions had their historic unbeaten streak snapped by Sevilla in La Liga, cutting into their lead at the top of the table.

A Sensational Ronaldo Free Kick Isn't Enough As Real Are Bounced From The Copa Del Rey

Real Madrid ventured to Celta Vigo’s Balaidos stadium in Galicia needing to overturn a 2-1 deficit to advance to the Copa del Rey semifinals. In the end, Celta held their nerve to secure a 2-2 draw and advance 4-3 on aggregate.

The Celts earned a first half advantage when Danilo turned the ball into his own net, his second own goal in his last three appearances. A shot from John Guidetti was brilliantly saved by Kiko Casilla, but the rebound deflected off Danilo and into the net.

Martin Odegaard Impresses At Heerenveen With Eye On Finishing Job At Real Madrid
