This is becoming an annual occurrence. Every so often, a bit of "kasi flava" in South Africa goes viral and people go off with the power of a thousand Roy Keanes — "IT'S A DISGRACE!" "IT'S NOT PROPER FOOTBALL!" "I'D BREAK THEIR LEGS!"
For the game's great distributors of the ball, there's unfortunately no assist equivalent of the Puskás Award. But maybe we'd do well to highlight the year's best assist with the Pelé-to-Carlos Alberto Memorial Trophy or something. Basically I just think that Giannis Konstantelias needs some form of recognition for what he accomplished in PAOK Thessaloniki's recent Super League victory over AEK Athens.
Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie don’t play around. The American duo is quickly becoming the most ruthless and brutal midfield pair in the Premier League. The latest Leeds Everton fight during Saturday’s EPL meeting was another example of this.
Moments before halftime Adams and Luke Ayling did well to dispossess Dwight McNeil near the corner flag. While Adams was dribbling away McNeil put in a hard foul on the American.
Rodrygo is enjoying his football at the Santiago Bernabéu this season, and a beautiful set of skills against Elche on Wednesday sent us back to the days when another young Brazilian was mesmerizing the Spanish crowd.
The match was goal-scoring fiesta for the Merengues — they managed to score four goals in a league match for the first time since September while keeping a clean sheet. Marco Asensio, Luka Modrić and a Karim Benzema’s double lit up the world champion’s celebratory victory.
Take a bow Borussia Dortmund fans. The latest Dortmund tifo vs. Chelsea on Wednesday was an absolute masterpiece.
Signal Iduna Park is one of the cathedrals of European football. Its famous Yellow Wall holds 25,000 fans, always brings the noise and has a history of unveiling the best tifos you’ll ever see.
Wednesday was no exception as the Yellow Wall produced this.

Zlatan Ibrahimović is one of the world's most brazenly outspoken footballers, and as a result of that he's also one of the most widely publicized. However, the 41-year-old maintains a largely anonymous private life, spending much of his offseason time in Malmö with longtime partner Helena Seger and their two sons Maximilian (age 16) and Vincent (age 14).
Sergio Ramos is on-the-spot after a video of him being physical with two photographers came to light.
The incident occurred while Ramos and other PSG stars were thanking the team's ultras for their support despite a very disappointing 1-0 loss against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League's Round of 16 on Tuesday night.
Deportes Tolima and Millonarios were ready to face off in Colombia’s Categoría Primera A in the fourth match day of the season at the Estadio Manuel Murillo Toro on Sunday.
However, a crazed fan’s actions lead to an unusual and reprehensible sequence of events that suspended the game.
When the game was seconds away from kick-off and the broadcast camera was paning to Millionarios’ Daniel Cataño, a Deportes Tolima fan assaulted and punched the Colombian player behind his back.
London rivals Chelsea and West Ham shared the points on Saturday after drawing 1-1 at the London Stadium. The game had a controversial ending as Chelsea wasn’t award a penalty kick for this handball in the box.
No handball was given on this shot from Conor Gallagher.
If you were to give me the option of going to prison for a year or taking a free kick from Hulk directly to the face, I’m taking the prison option. If you’re not convinced, then perhaps this Hulk free kick goal will persuade you.
Hulk scored an insane free kick goal on Wednesday vs. Democrata that had a top speed of 74 miles per hour.
The 36-year-old Brazilian scored two goals on the day; however, everyone is talking about his second.
