Christian Eriksen Deserves To Be In The World Cup

For a moment, it looked like plucky Ireland were going to qualify for the World Cup. Shane Duffy's silly goal put them up 1-0 on Denmark at home. All they had to do was see the game out without conceding. But then Christian Eriksen decided he had had enough, as only a handful of players in the world can do, and tore Ireland up on the way to a hat trick, a 5-1 win and World Cup qualification for Denmark.

Alex Iwobi Just Traumatized Javier Mascherano With A Brutal Nutmeg Goal

Argentina showed it can do goals without Lionel Messi on Tuesday in Russia. That defense though could use some work after Nigeria’s Alex Iwobi destroyed the rearguard of La Albiceleste, Javier Mascherano in particular. 

Argentina took a two-goal lead in the opening 36 minutes in a friendly against Nigeria, but Iwobi scored twice to spearhead a 4-2 victory for the Super Eagles at Krasnodar Stadium. His second goal absolutely eviscerated Mascherano as the Arsenal attacker nutmegged the Barcelona man on his way to the final goal of the match. 

This Outrageous Goalkeeper Did A Double Zidane Roulette Inside His Own Box

It takes confidence to pull off a skill move if you're a goalkeeper. You have to know, deep in your heart, that you are good enough to execute it successfully, because if you do not, you are entering a world of pain. Even the simple Cruyff turn can end in disaster with the slightest of mis-touches.

And that, friends, is what makes this video so impressive. The Zidane roulette is not an easy move to attempt, even for an attacking player in the field. For a goalie to do it, much less do it twice, inside his own box, well that just warms my cold, black heart.

Miguel Borja Is Colombia’s Next Big Thing. This Ridiculous Half-Volley Proves It

Radamel Falcao is back to his brilliant best for both club and country, and he’ll surely lead the line for Colombia in Russia. Accordingly, Los Cafeteros could very well match or better their 2014 run to the quarterfinals — the country’s best-ever World Cup finish — which Falcao missed because of a knee injury.

Raul Jimenez Rips A Half-Volley Into The Roof Of The Net To Put El Tri Up On Poland

Some 40,000 Poles showed up at the Stadion Energa Gdansk to celebrate Poland’s qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia with a friendly match against Mexico on Monday, but the feel-good energy enveloping the arena was quickly ruined by El Tri striker Raul Jimenez.

The Benfica forward looked hungry early on, sending a battling header straight at Poland goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny in the game’s opening minutes, but he made no mistake with his second effort only 13 minutes in.
