18. “GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
17. “Showing him this much space is like handing the keys to the blood bank to Dracula.”
16. “Defenders try to follow him on Facebook and he comes out on Twitter, that’s how evasive he is.”
15. “As electrifying as a hairdryer thrown into a hot tub, my friend.”
14. “He could shave a mouse in his sleep and not disturb her.”
“Banter club” is a common insult, but it’s 100 percent true for Tottenham Hotspur. How else do you explain the North London club’s recent acquisition of a paint sponsorship that’s already gone awry.
Spurs announced a new sponsorship deal on Thursday morning with paint company Dulux, the first official paint supplier of the Premier League club. Within hours Tottenham was forced to make fun of itself to save face after the new sponsor spent the morning making fun of Spurs on Twitter.
Adelaide United kept pace with Central Coast Mariners at the top of Australia’s A-League by defeating Macarthur 3-1 at Coopers Stadium on Wednesday.
Highlights from the match include 20-year-old winger Al Hassan Touré decimating three defenders at once, a lovely finish by Ben Halloran and a feral cat that clearly just wanted to try "the new Parmi Burger at Macca’s" … I have zero clue what’s going on at McDonald’s franchises Down Under but I like it.
Raise your hand if you predicted that West Bromwich Albion would defeat Chelsea 5-2 at Stamford Bridge and then a week later overpower Southampton 3-0. Anybody? I would have been surprised just to hear that West Brom scored multiple goals in a match.
After recording just three wins and scoring only 20 goals in its first 29 EPL matches, West Brom has found the back of the net eight times over its last two matches, picking up two victories — each by three goals — in the process.
¿Recuerdan al Jesse Lingard del Manchester United? Bueno, ese hombre no existe más. Ahora pueden llamarlo Lingardinho o Lingardowski.
Después de dos años de terror en Old Trafford, en los que registró apenas un gol y cero asistencias en Premier League, hoy el mediocampista renace en el West Ham. No más memes, no más chistes. Lingard suma ocho goles en nueve partidos por los Hammers, transformándose en una de las armas ofensivas más letales de la división. De hecho, si solo contáramos 2021 sería el actual campeón de goleo del torneo.
It’s always somewhat perplexing as to how streakers gain access to the field during professional sporting events.
But doing it when football matches are being played behind closed doors and with the security that entails? That’s outrageous. And doing it in an empty stadium when it’s the most important match in the home side’s 89-year history? Well that’s unbelievable.
And how about meeting all the above criteria but also doing it when your name around town is “The Nude Man of Granada”? That’s a miracle on grass.
MADRID - Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann has been spared having to remember three different dates to mark the birthdays of each of his three children — as they were all born on April 8.
When the French World Cup winner confirmed on social media that his wife Erika Choperena had given birth to a baby daughter on Thursday, remarkably it was on the same date as their elder children, Mia (born in 2016) and Amaro (born in 2019).
Rio de Janeiro abandoned plans to rename its famous Maracanã Stadium in tribute to Pelé on Thursday after a widespread outcry from fans.
The official proposal to give Pelé’s name to the ground that hosted the final of the 2014 World Cup and the opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympic Games was vetoed by state governor Cláudio Castro.
