There's nothing better than a well executed slow burn.
During Sunday’s enthralling clash between Liverpool and Manchester City, I was struck by how fun it was to watch the two best teams in England actually struggle. The two titans breeze through most matches with such dominance, it’s remarkable — and incredibly entertaining — to see them play equals where they must fight for every inch.
Pumas se convirtió en el primer finalista de la Liga de Campeones de la Concacaf luego de un fascinante empate sin goles ante Cruz Azul.

Villarreal — representing a city of just 50,577 in Spain's Castellón province — has clinched its first UEFA Champions League semifinal appearance since that magical 2006 run after a stunning upset of six-time champion Bayern Munich at Allianz Arena on Tuesday.

It was one of the best Champions League matches of all time, and it ended with a header from Karim Benzema.
Making her 110th appearance for Australia, captain Sam Kerr scored her 58th and 59th goals for the Matildas on Tuesday in a 3-1 friendly victory over New Zealand in front of over 13,000 in Canberra.
Australia raced to a three-goal advantage after 32 minutes with Kerr registering a brace. The first, in the 15th minute, was a towering header off Steph Catley's corner kick.
An assistant manager in Spain pulled a Moonlight Graham on Sunday, crossing that foreboding white line and onto the hallowed green grass, but his reward wasn't the eternal bliss of playing catch with Shoeless Joe Jackson — he got a shove in the back, a red card and cries for his dismissal at Colmenar Viejo and the revocation of his coaching license. Real life is nothing like Hollywood.
