Highlights

Neymar accomplished a feat more akin to folklore on Wednesday as he scored a hat-trick in Santos’ 3-0 victory against Juventude which might’ve saved his boyhood club from relegation.

The 33-year-old Brazilian icon has been playing injured with a meniscus problem that will require surgery. Despite being told by doctors not to play, Neymar is refusing to see Santos get relegated and is playing through the pain for the final games of the season.

Mexico's generational talent also disappeared before our eyes.

During the match against Mexico on Saturday night, 17-year-old midfielder Gilberto Mora came on as a substitute and was nearly wiped out in a shocking studs-up tackle by Nández — when the ball wasn’t seriously 'in play.' Rather than a welcome to senior international soccer, it was a brutal initiation.

Inter Milan maintained their pursuit of the Serie A title with a hard-fought 2–1 away victory over Hellas Verona, highlighted by a moment of individual brilliance from Piotr Zieliński. 

The Polish midfielder opened his 2025–26 league account with what can only be described as one of the finest goals of the season — and, perhaps, one of the most aesthetically pleasing strikes in recent memory.

Just when we thought the United States women’s national team’s attack couldn’t get stronger, Emma Sears announced herself with a hat trick against New Zealand on Wednesday during the USA’s 6-0 friendly victory.

Sears, 24, had previously only scored one goal for the USWNT in 10 appearances. On Wednesday she took advantage of being named in head coach Emma Hayes’ starting XI and put on a show for the fans at CPKC Stadium in Kansas City.

An amazing Thiago Silva scissor kick goal proved to be the late winner in Fluminense’s 1-0 victory vs. Juventude on Thursday.

The Brazilian great proved to the world this summer at the Club World Cup that he’s still capable of competing at the highest level despite his age. Now he’s gone on to show that he can produce world class goals.

Watch as the Fluminense captain delivers in style to win his side the game.

The United States men’s national team roster for the 2026 World Cup is a true mystery just eight months away from the start of the tournament. Cristian Roldan threw another curveball into the plan with an impressive performance in the midfield during the USMNT’s 2-1 friendly win vs. Australia on Tuesday.

It’s no secret that the 30-year-old Seattle Sounders midfielder has his fair share of critics among the U.S. fanbase. Roldan has often been a metaphorical punching bag for fans during his limited appearances for the national team over the past few years.

U.S. men’s national team forward, Alejandro Zendejas, delivered a performance to remember on Saturday night, as Club América dismantled rivals Pumas UNAM 4-1 in a fiery Clásico Capitalino at the Estadio Azulcrema.

An incredible Tanner Tessmann Europa League goal proved to be the winner during Lyon’s opening game in the competition vs. FC Utrecht. It was a spectacular strike from the American midfielder.

The 24-year-old came off the bench for Lyon in the 65th minute and had an immediate impact with a fantastic goal 10 minutes later.
