Porto and Mexico National Team player Miguel Layun is a fullback and occasional defensive midfielder by trade, which is weird because he can do things like this:

Chicharito’s Apparent Tap-In Is Miraculously Saved By Hugo Lloris

Tottenham Hotspur held Bayern Leverkusen 0-0 in Tuesday night's Champions League encounter in Germany on the back of some ridiculous heroics from Hugo Lloris in net. 

The first half saw Hotspur attempt to take the game to Leverkusen, but the German club defended resolutely. Vincent Janssen hit the post for the visitors and Christian Eriksen's follow-up attempt brought a great save out of Bernd Leno.

Did Messi Puke On The Bench This Weekend?

Unpopular opinion alert: I do not think Messi vomited in this video.

He looked like he heaved a little bit, and he definitely spit a couple times, but I do not believe those actions were related. He could have even been stifling a yawn. He perhaps triggered his gag reflex, but if so it did not lead to any vomit coming out of his mouth.

Jermain Defoe Suggests That Wayne Rooney Should Begin Freezing Himself

Wayne Rooney’s struggles for club and country need no introduction. The perhaps striker, sometimes no. 10 and definitely-not-but-let’s-give-it-a-try midfielder is trying to prolong his days as a soccer boy extraordinaire, but it’s just not coming off at 30 years of age.

His movement looks tired, his touch a bit lumpy and his strengths have been boiled down to a combination of strong concentration levels and nice little layoffs.
