Luis Suarez’s blatant handball from the 2010 World Cup continues to be a subject of debate amongst soccer’s lawmakers. Suarez committed the offense in the closing stages of a quarter-final match against Ghana, giving Uruguay the slightest hopes of staving off elimination.

Asamoah Gyan sent the resulting penalty over the bar for Ghana, and Uruguay went through to the semis after a shoot-out victory. The International Football Association Board (IFAB) is now looking into ways to prevent that situation from ever occurring again.

Having already secured qualification for Euro 2016 at the top of Group E, Roy Hodgson and England have already switched gears, looking forward to the start of the tournament and setting their sights on winning their first major trophy since the 1966 World Cup. 

However, England is already facing their first obstacle in France before they have even arrived.

Borussia Dortmund’s early Europa League match in Norway Friday literally finished against all the odds. 

The German club arrived in Norway early Thursday morning to face Norwegian football club Odds Ballklubb. From what looked like an easy match for Dortmund on paper, turned into a game of catch-up after Odd scored three unanswered goals in the first half. Thomas Tuchel was staring at his first loss in charge of Borussia Dortmund at 45’, but the boys in yellow came out on top to move on in the Europa League campaign.
