Christian Pulisic couldn’t help but laugh and make a face when his fellow AC Milan and USMNT teammate Yunus Musah guessed that Landon Donovan was Pulisic’s soccer hero.
The humorous moment happened during a “Teammates” video with Soccer.com where the two players quizzed each other to see how well they know one another.

LONDON — Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola said he will miss his old sparring partner Jürgen Klopp when the Liverpool manager calls time on his reign at the end of the season.
Klopp stunned the soccer world on Friday when he announced this would be his last season at the Anfield club he took over in 2015 and led to multiple trophies.
With the AFC and NFC Championships on the horizon the football spirit is at an all-time high. The feeling is apparently contagious with one case of football fever spotted in Belgium after a great Kevin Mac Allister tackle.
Argentine defender Mac Allister received a straight red card for a tackle during a Belgian Cup game between powerhouses Union Saint-Gilloise and Anderlecht.
Mac Allister’s teammate gave a half-hearted effort to bring down an opponent in on goal so the 26-year-old showed everyone how it’s done.

After 11 years it appears the beef between Eden Hazard and former Swansea ball boy Charlie Morgan has been settled.
A rewind back to 2013 sets the scene of the two crossing paths for the first time. With Chelsea trailing 2-0 on aggregate in the final minutes of a League Cup match, Hazard wasn’t a fan of Morgan’s timewasting tactics.
The ball had gone out for a goal kick and Morgan took a little too long grabbing the ball for Hazard. The now retired Belgian took the ball by force and kicked Morgan who was just 17 years old at the time.
United States women’s national team midfielder Kristie Mewis had a memorable debut in the Women’s Super League with her new club West Ham United on Sunday. Mewis bagged an assist and won a tough battle against the wind when trying to take a corner kick.
The wind got so bad that she had to ask the assistant referee to hold the corner flag for her.

A Wolverhampton Wanderers fan struggled to contain his joy when his team scored a late winner in Tuesday's FA Cup tie against Brentford after he had stepped forward from the crowd to take over fourth official duties when an assistant referee fell ill.
Ross Bennett, a referee at youth level, said he had volunteered to help when the assistant could not continue in extra time.

British comedian John Oliver might’ve had one of the best acceptance speeches of all time. Well, that’s if you’re a Liverpool fan.
The 2024 Emmy Awards were handed out in Los Angeles on Monday, honoring and rewarding the best personalities, writers, and directors in the world of television. This year saw the award ceremony celebrate their 75th anniversary.
The Africa Cup of Nations never fails to provide exhilarating and peculiar moments. A Jefferson Encada clearance in the opening game between hosts Ivory Coast and Guinea-Bissau has already provided fans with a hilarious highlight.
Encada, who plays at right back for Guinea-Bissau, appeared to have a simple game plan. That plan was the ball was not allowed in his penalty area.
In the first half he intercepted a pass inside the box and had several different options. He could pass back to his goalkeeper or to a fellow defender.
Real Madrid center back Antonio Rüdiger isn’t just one of the best defenders in the world, he’s also one of the most entertaining.
Rüdiger engaged in some hilarious nonsense during Real Madrid’s thrilling 5-3 victory vs. Atlético Madrid in the Supercopa de España on Wednesday.
Perhaps to get into Atlético striker Álvaro Morata’s head, Rüdiger was caught on camera grabbing the Spaniard’s nipple and giving it a twist.
Retired France defender Pascal Chimbonda has registered as a player for Skelmersdale United, the struggling ninth-tier English side the 44-year-old now manages, after collecting a touchline ban.

He took over as manager of Skelmersdale last October, with the club now bottom of the North West Counties Football League Premier Division.
