Southampton are one win away from securing promotion back to the Premier League and their fans are loving it. One Southampton fan leg celebration has gone viral.

You might read “Southampton fan leg celebration” and wonder if we’re referring to him doing a dance with his leg, the stanky leg perhaps. No, we mean a Southampton fan was spotted in the crowd celebrating a goal with an actual prosthetic leg.

The person in charge of Southampton’s social media couldn’t have selected a more perfect caption.

The Portland Timbers secured a 4-2 victory Wednesday night but not before trailing 2-0 at halftime and having a hot mic fail with the broadcast.

The Timbers have been uncharacteristically poor this season. Heading into the game vs. San Jose Earthquakes they were without a win in their previous nine games. Yes, it had been two months since Portland secured three points from a game.

Midweek Major League Soccer games always tend to have a little extra flare, drama and randomness to them. Wednesday’s Philadelphia Union vs. NYCFC game was a prime example as a raccoon invaded the pitch.

The MLS raccoon video has gone viral and started a plethora of memes. The fine folks running the MLS social media accounts provided us with the uncut, full length raccoon invasion.

Enjoy.

If you’ve seen the hit show “Ted Lasso” then you might remember the scene where Lasso, Roy Kent and the gang convince Jamie Tartt to be a prick and get on the other team’s nerves.

One player who excels at this in the real world is Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr. Not only do Tartt and Vini have incredible footwork and finishing abilities, but they both know how to get under opponent’s skin.

A Vietnam player flop video from the AFC U23 Asian Cup went viral after he gave fans one of the most riveting performances we’ve seen on the field this season.

The clip took place during Vietnam’s 3-1 victory vs. Kuwait in their group stage opener. Vietnam forward Van Truong Nguyen put his heart and soul into a flop of the ages.

In the 51st minute Kuwait’s Yousef Al Haqan gave Nguyen the slightest jab at the ribs near the corner flag. What came next was an acting job that would bring Leonardo DiCaprio to his knees.

If you would have told us 10 years ago that New England Patriots’ legendary head coach Bill Belichick would be discussing relegation and Birmingham City, we would’ve called you crazy.

Fast forward to present day and that’s exactly where we are. During Netflix’s “The Roast of Tom Brady”, soon-to-be League One club Birmingham City were one of the many victims of the roasting spree.

Lionel Messi’s famous bodyguard Yassine Cheuko has been a busy man this season. Statistics aren’t recorded for bodyguards, but if they were Chueko would have as many tackles as a linebacker in the NFL.

Kai Havertz is a confirmed internet troll.

Title-racing Arsenal maintained their lead atop of the league table after defeating Spurs in yet another edition of the London Derby on Sunday. Three first-half goals by the Gunners sealed their eventual 3-2 win at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Star Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels couldn’t resist poking fun at the Premier League’s woes in Europe this week as four different EPL teams crashed out of their respective competitions.

Arsenal and Manchester City both suffered quarterfinal exits in the Champions League while Liverpool and West Ham fell short in the Europa League.

EPL fans have mocked the Bundesliga and other leagues for years now with the term “farmer’s league.” The joke is an insult about the league not being competitive as one team always wins it and overall, the league being worse.

A postgame quote from Norwegian and Rosenborg striker Ole Saeter went viral after he said he planned to go home with his phone in one hand and his privates in the other.

Saeter, 28, opened Rosenborg’s season off with a bang scoring a blistering goal from long-range. His side went on to win 2-0 with the second goal coming late in the game.
