A match in the Bulgarian first division was interestingly interrupted when a duck flew onto the field, sat down and refused to move, a bit like when your grandpa settles down in his favorite chair with a bottle of bourbon. Then, also like your grandpa, the duck got ornery when people tried to coax it out of its seat.
There was a time during Patrice Evra’s heyday at Manchester United when he was considered the best left back in the word. At 35-years-old, the Frenchman is no longer undroppable — he’s only made two appearances for Juventus this season — but he has managed to lay claim to a new title: soccer’s best Instagrammer.
Evra’s profile isn’t even six months old yet, but it already has a cool one million followers.
No one can really be mad if a dog interrupts a soccer game. Especially if it’s a cute dog who looks like he is having the time of his life.
This dog decided it was time for the two teams to take a breather so he distracted the audience by performing his own show.
There is not much we can say about this goal that isn't going to sound like we plagiarized it from True Detective, so you're just going to have to watch it.

We have hit another milestone in 2016 as 32-year-old New England Revolution striker Kei Kamara has become the first man, we assume, to receive a yellow card for twerking in the history of association football. This almost goes without saying, but he’s also the first former winner of the MLS Works Humanitarian of the Year award to receive a yellow card for twerking, a distinction that is unlikely to ever be replicated.
In a completely unsubstantiated but hilarious occurrence, we’ve caught wind of a recent development regarding South African international striker Tokelo Rantie.
Lionel Messi and his Barcelona teammates, including Gerard Pique and Ivan Rakitic, took a moment to read tweets about themselves in an ad campaign for the new 2017 Audi Q2. Fortunately for the Barca players, this was nothing like Jimmy Kimmel’s “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets” segment.
The players read tweets containing strange tags that ultimately praised them as footballers and individuals. The highlight of the two-minute video is watching Messi awkwardly praise himself.
A matchday chef for Bristol Rovers vs. Gillingham this weekend learned the hard way that you should watch what you post on Facebook.
The chef, an admitted Bristol City fan, posted this gem (apparently deleted) on Facebook:
