Fails

Al Nassr secured a 3-1 victory in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a goal and taking out a cameraman in the process.

During the game Al Nassr were awarded a free kick just outside the box. Nearly all eyes in the stadium were on CR7 with the exception of the man operating the camera crane behind goal. 

Ronaldo’s kicked went past the wall, past the goalkeeper, past the goal and right into the face of the poor guy just trying to do his job. 

Over two million people tuned in to watch Saturday’s Sidemen Charity match as some of the internet’s biggest stars competed at a sold-out London Stadium to watch Sidemen FC defeat YouTube All Stars 8-5. One of the celebrities that fans were most excited to see was American streamer iShowSpeed.

Speed vs Sidemen highlights 2023

Speed featured in last year’s charity match and scored a goal that was called back for offside. He’s been working on his soccer skills for the past year and was hoping for a better performance this time around.

Mallory Swanson was back on a professional field Thursday night to throw out the first pitch at Wrigley Field. The star USWNT forward missed out on the 2023 Women’s World Cup with a torn patellar tendon in her left knee.

She was in good spirits Thursday night as she threw the opening pitch to her husband Dansby Swanson.

Spanish club Málaga went off the deep end a while ago. In 2013 the club was playing in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. Last season they were relegated from the second division of Spain.

You can’t blame the fans for not having much optimism when the is club dying out, hemorrhaging money and set to play in the third tier for the first time since 1998.

One of the worst goals I’ve ever seen in a professional league was scored on Saturday in the Ukrainian Premier League. A comedy of errors led to what can only be described as a cataclysmic defensive failure.

The game was between Vorskla and Veres Rivne and in the 20th minute Vorskla led 2-0. They must have felt bad for their opponents or something because it’s hard to describe what went wrong on their goal kick.

Sit back, relax and watch this train wreck sequence of soccer.

We're roughly halfway through the 2023 summer transfer window with Europe's top five leagues all having to conclude their business by 11 p.m. GMT on Friday, September 1. Declan Rice has already become the most expensive English player ever after his $130 million switch from West Ham to Arsenal, and Jude Bellingham's $115 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid is the window's other piece of gargantuan business.
