A José Mourinho handshake fail after his side’s 0-0 draw vs. Lyon in the Europa League on Thursday went viral. The Fenerbahce boss made a classic error of mistaken identity and shook the wrong person’s hand after the game.

Redissi looked a little confused before pointing Mourinho in the right direction toward Lyon’s actual head coach, Pierre Sage.

The annual award for the best soccer player in the world is called the Ballon d’Or. The fan-favorite best flop of the year isn’t an official award; however the people refer to it as the “Fallon d’Floor.” 

The 2024 calendar year saw some incredible flops from the biggest names. A litany of players careened their bodies toward the Earth in hopes to persuade a referee to bring a whistle to their lips.

Former Chelsea star and Brazil international Oscar will be departing China after playing with Shanghai Port for the past eight years. The 33-year-old announced his farewell on Tuesday and will reunite with his boyhood club in São Paulo.

We’ll be completely honest and say that we didn’t watch too many Chinese Super League games in the past decade. One moment we do remember fondly was Oscar giving absolutely no fucks and just lasering the ball into his opponents.
