Sometimes greatness happens by accident. That is exactly what happened when Philipp Schobesberger fell flat on his face en route to a superb finish, that honestly should land him on the Puskas. Okay, maybe his goal shouldn't be on the Puskas watchlist, but it was clinical and it deceived everyone involved, including himself. But we're just going to pretend that he planned the entire thing and that is was the best goal of the year.
Once in a long while you witness a ridiculous goal that captures the imagination with its stunning technique or simply vicious power. Rapid Wien's Philipp Schobesberger has provided us with a mesmerizing goal that defies all of those precedents.
As a tool to build flexibility and rehab from injuries, Jermaine Jones sometimes takes to yoga. He's become so enmeshed in the yoga world that he has become the host of a yoga DVD called "Yoga for Conditioning" by yoga company Gaiam.

You can day dream about having superpowers, find a cool looking rock and think that it has magical properties, see something totally explainable but think you’ve just witness a miracle.

How would you react if you were seemingly between the ages of 7 and 10, and had to face two professional athletes? In soccer kids fail sometimes, but this a unheard of.
Wayne Rooney is not having a ton of luck with the ladies. Or, rather, Wayne Rooney's Twitter is not having a ton of luck with the ladies. OK, some guy in Tinder using only Wayne Rooney tweets is not having a ton of luck with the ladies.
We get to watch though, and the results are predictably hilarious.
Aspiring referees, pay close attention. Valenciennes’ Saliou Ciss committed nearly every single bookable offense in the space of one minute. Some of his misdemeanors, including flipping the stretcher that was sent to his aid, aren't even recognized in the rule book.
After being sent off for collecting a second yellow card against Brest in a French Ligue 2 match, Ciss absolutely lost it. Ciss isn't slowing down, or stopping, for anyone (teammates included).
