A viral video has been posted of Canada and Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies listening to KSI in the car. KSI, real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji and more commonly known as JJ, is an internet sensation who started his career as a FIFA YouTuber. 

The 28-year-old has tried his hand in many different fields including boxing and music. His latest album “All Over The Place” was dropped this month and Davies is a fan.

It’s been nearly half a year since The18 dropped a Spotify playlist. It’s about time to dust off the records and pump out another 18-track playlist banger. This summer’s Best Soccer Songs Mix has some of 2021’s biggest hits, along with a couple songs I promise you haven’t heard before.

Belgium forward Romelu Lukaku had fans ask him questions on Twitter and his responses display just why we love him. He replied to dozens of questions, including sharing his biggest motivation and even firing back at some haters, making this thread a must-see. As he lights up the pitch at Euro 2020, we look at the highlights from the Lukaku Q&A to get to know one of our favorite stars even more. 

ESPN’s coverage of Euro 2020 has been good so far. However, it's almost unsettling how much less laughter there is after spending the last few months with Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards on CBS Sports.

Richards is now part of the BBC’s coverage of the tournament (as well as Alex Scott) and providing some excellent viral moments.  

With a full docket of international soccer awaiting fans this summer, we’re going to hear plenty of national anthems. This begs the question, who has the longest national anthem? 

LCD Soundsystem’s song “tonite” begins with a lyric that could be applicable to every UEFA European Championship anthem ever written. “Everybody’s singing the same song,” James Murphy laments. “It goes ‘tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight.’ I never realized these artists thought so much about dying.”

The soccer world sat captivated as the two biggest names in the sport received the axe in the Champions League Round of 16. When the dust settled both Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus and Lionel Messi’s Barcelona had been reduced to rubble at the hands of Porto and Paris Saint-Germain.
