Game recognizes game, but the basketball game had to look quite far down to recognize Eden Hazard. On Wednesday, before the Dallas Mavericks hosted the New Orleans Pelicans, Mavericks star Luka Doncic had a surprise guest waiting to meet him. You never would have thought 5 feet 9 inches looked so tiny.
Former USMNT great Tim Howard will return to soccer in the USL Championship to play for Memphis 901 FC. This man just doesn’t know when to quit.

Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland has rightfully earned his spot as the sport’s next sensation. Whether it’s his incredible goals or his speed, the Norwegian teen has turned heads in 2020.

It was a weekend the Bundesliga would like to forget. Multiple banners from supporters caused games to stop, and now a group of Japanese fans is being issued an apology after security removed them from RB Leipzig's stadium over fears of coronavirus.

Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli has been charged by the Football Association for a post from his Snapchat earlier in February.
As part of a new advertising campaign between Liverpool and partners Chaokoh, some Reds first-teamers tried their hands at acting.
For the bit — "The Team Meting: Content Creative Session" — the Liverpool players were challenged to brainstorm ideas which could be used to market Chaokoh, a UK-based coconut milk/water brand. Andrew Robertson gets the ball rolling by confiding in teammate Curtis Jones that he's considering a career in music "if football doesn't work out."

There are two arenas in which professional sports teams succeed: on the field and on social media. As Southampton showed earlier this season, it's possible to win online even after losing on the pitch.
