Have you ever had one of those situations where you just wish the earth would open up and swallow you whole? Well, Argentine midfielder Daniel Imperiale just had one of those moments after what is probably the worst soccer miss in history.
To see the goal fast forward to the 2:20 mark.
Oh the great Jamie Vardy. Not only does the lad have 19 goals and 6 assists in the Premier League, but now he is acting like the saving grace for the Three Lions. Vardy continued his coming out party to the world but this time on the international stage as he netted this clinical backheel against the defending world champions. Germany gave up a 2-0 lead to the Englishman, and one of the other goal scorers for Roy Hodgson's bunch was none other than Harry Kane.
We will say this for Glenn Verbauwhede: he has no regard for his personal safety.
Actually, let's amend that. We will say this for Glenn Verbauwhede: he hasn't much regard for anything at all.
Verbauwhede plays keeper for Maritzburg United in the South African Premier Soccer League, and he plays it with the kind of reckless abandon and stupidity that only comes along once in a blue moon. Just watch.
Imagine you are a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo, and you are sitting behind a goal at which he is about to shoot a penalty. Because you are a fan, you know that penalties are his jam, there is arguably no better penalty taker in the world. So a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty should be as sure a bet as there is to see your hero succeed; you are almost guaranteed to get the classic Ronaldo jump-spin celebration. You are probably stoked.
And then, in the case of this fan, you are really not. In this case, you get hit in the face by that Cristiano Ronaldo penalty.
YouTube has received thousands of visitors looking for a parody of the movie 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice', in which football stars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo embody Marvel characters and unleash their fury in an unprecedented fight.
The red cape superhero, Superman, is played by the Argentine star. Meanwhile, Batman is played by the Portuguese crack. The trailer keeps the same plot as the film it parodies starring Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck.
Argentinian manager Ricardo Lombardi is not what you'd call "fan friendly." Lombardi, who manages Sarmiento de Jarmin, the last-place team in the Argentinian first division, was apparently shown on video fighting with some Sarmiento de Jarmin fans, who evidently took issue with their beloved club being last in the Argentinian first division.
Whatever the spark was, it got ugly real quick between the fans and Lombardi, with some players reportedly involved as well.
A fantastic new video from Copa90 highlights one of the most intense and competitive derbies in all of Mexican football, the Clásico Regiomontano between crosstown rivals C.F. Monterrey and Tigres UANL of Monterrey, Mexico.
Contested since 1974, the two clubs have played each other a total of 106 times. Neither team holds an all-time advantage in the series, both having won 37, drawn 32 and lost 37. Los Rayados won the most recent edition of the derby, defeating Tigres 1-0 on March 5.
Love and soccer. Don’t they just go hand-in-hand like Bonnie and Clyde?
The beautiful game is used as a tool to unite us as people. No matter where we come from or what our background is, we all have a common love for kicking it.
Sometimes, though, the game unites two who are in love in a special manner.
There are a lot of people who like Daniel Sturridge. There are a lot of people who dislike Daniel Sturridge. There is one young Southampton fan who really dislikes Daniel Sturridge. Here he is during Sturridge's celebration after the Liverpool striker made it 2-0 against the Saints.
