Zlatan Ibrahimovic officially conquered America on Saturday, scoring twice in his debut with the LA Galaxy, including this worldie. Juraj Kucka one-upped Zlatan with a free kick goal of similar trajectory but longer range on Sunday. The Kucka goal against Galatasaray is an early frontrunner for the 2018 Puskas (who would have turned 91 on Monday) Award. 

After falling to a Megan Rapinoe-inspired Seattle Reign FC in Week 1, the Washington Spirit recorded a 2-0 win over the Orlando Pride in their home opener at Maryland SoccerPlex on Saturday. 

Nearly 5,000 were on hand to watch 19-year-old USWNT forward Mallory Pugh open the scoring in the 80th minute with a blistering run that started just inside the halfway line. Pugh finished the move by nutmegging international compatriot Ashlyn Harris in goal.

Denmark are 80-1 outsiders at the World Cup, and that makes sense — Nicklas Bendtner remains the nation’s premier striker. However, you could waste $5 in a myriad of dumber ways than by throwing it on the Danish Dynamite. Here’s how Denmark could win the Cup: Kasper Schmeichel brings the 2015-16 Leicester City hoodoo, and Christian Eriksen is just the best version of himself for a month.

It’s possible that these things happen, and your $5 becomes $400. 

As evidence, I submit the above video, which is just Eriksen doing Eriksen things earlier today.
