England Goals Vs France

Fans stood with heavy hearts across the globe as England and France took the pitch today for an international friendly to momentarily allow people to take their minds off of the horrid events that occured last Friday in Paris. As red, white and blue lights glowed across the Wembley arch before the match, the old rivals set aside their footballing hate to stand united with one another. Then, it was the Three Lions show. Wayne Rooney and Dele Alli scored two beauties to give England a 2-0 victory over France.

In 1993, The Worst Team In Europe Set The Record For Fastest Goal Ever Scored

The “Most Serene Republic” of San Marino has a population of 32,000. It’s 24 square miles in size; it’s a speck surrounded completely by the nation of Italy. It’s shocking that European football's governing body, UEFA, allowed such a small nation — oh, sorry, an "enclaved microstate" — to be a member nation and field a national soccer team, but they have. You could argue San Marino hasn’t stopped paying for it since.

Neymar Played With Pros At 14 Years Old. His Skills Left Them All Smiling.

It’s not surprising that Neymar was a standout soccer player his entire life. It’s expected. He’s one of the best players in the world right now. That doesn’t just happen overnight. That, however, doesn’t make it any less impressive to see Neymar playing in Brazil age of 14, running around with professionals, including the likes of Robinho and Romario, and fitting in. Sure, the video below is of a charity match, and because of that I can guarantee none of the professional footballers in it are trying hard, but Neymar’s skill is still evident. 

This 9-Year-Old Plays Soccer Like We Play Video Games

Rayane Bounida is ridiculously good at soccer. It’s comical. He’s 9-years-old and makes you wonder if he is even aware of the level of embarrassment he puts defenders through on what seems to be a daily basis. Honestly if someone told me that this kid jumps out of bed in the moring and nutmegs his teddy bear I would believe them. He’s the most amazing youth soccer player I’ve ever seen.

Neymar Gets Embarrassed By A Professional Freestyler

There’s something incredibly satisfying about seeing Neymar get embarrassed by someone, anyone. Maybe it’s the fact that he’s usually the one doing the embarrassing, and that he’s getting so good at it that it’s scary, and that makes it satisfying to see the tables turn. It reminds people that he’s not superhuman, just really-really-good-human. Neymar gets embarrassed by freestyler Sean Garnier in the vine below, and it’s petty, but no one ever said petty couldn’t be satisfying. 

The Best of Ronaldinho

Was there a more entertaining footballer to watch than Ronaldinho? Sure you could say Messi or Ronaldo, or plenty of other players. But honestly, are they really more exotic or creative on the pitch than Ronaldinho? Do they have that unmistaken flair? I don't think so. Obviously those two players are in a class of their own, and do things on the pitch that no one else can (I have to say this so people don't think I'm taking a knock at Leo or CR7. You know how the internet is). But looking at Dinho, he did it all, and this video shows that. He had speed, strength and finesse.

The Team In Last Place Scored When It Didn’t Matter, And Won Swedish Goal Of The Year

Atvidabers’ season went terribly. They played in the Swedish top flight in 2015. Which is to say that they happened to share the pitch with teams that repeatedly beat them. They finished in last place with only 15 points, 2 wins, and a goal differential of -30. They had a bad time. So you have to imagine how amazing it must have felt for them to not just score a goal, but score the Swedish goal of the year.

Mexican 11-Year-Old Hailed As The Next Messi

Meet Luka Romero. He's 11 years old and is from Durango, Mexico. Some people think he might be the next Messi.

Wayne Rooney Has Discovered His After-Football Career

Given his waning (sorry!) skill-set on the pitch, it's time to think about what's next for Wayne Rooney, and we have the answer.

If there was any speculation about the post-footballing job prospects of Wayne Rooney (there are some who would argue that his post-footballing job is Manchester United center forward), that needs to cease right now, because on Monday we found the perfect career for him: professional wrestler.

Messi Is Always Training. Even When He Doesn't Have A Soccer Ball.

Until now, the footballing superstar most associated with oranges (and we are talking about the fruit here, not the Dutch) has been Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who once said of Norwegian former footballer John Carew, "What carew does with a football, I can do with an orange."
