Cristiano Ronaldo attempted to “break the internet” on Thursday when he released a video on his YouTube channel with an interview featuring social media icon MrBeast. Perhaps the most interesting part of the video was when MrBeast asked if Ronaldo wanted to play professionally with his son.

NBA superstar LeBron James made history this year when he played in a regular season game alongside his son, Bronny. MrBeast asked if Ronaldo could repeat the accomplishment with his son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.

South America takes their soccer incredibly seriously. Look no further than Monday’s derby match between Corinthians and Palmeiras where the home fans threw a severed pig’s head onto the field while Palmeiras were taking a corner kick.

The heated rivalry between the Brazilian clubs is no joke. How someone managed to smuggle in a pig’s head is beyond us, but the disgusting object was lobbed onto the field in the 29th minute.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: Ms. Captain America (or Peggy Carter, for those who know).

U.S. men’s national team and AC Milan star, Christian Pulisic, has had quite the busy summer — both on and off the pitch.

David Beckham appeared on the popular show “Hot Ones” to devour wings and provided one of the hottest takes we’ve heard in a while. The Inter Miami owner said that the U.S. will win a World Cup… eventually.

Typically, on the “Hot Ones” show the heat intensifies as the show goes on, but after one wing Beckham said that Lionel Messi’s influence at Inter Miami will inspire a World Cup triumph for the Stars and Stripes.

Cristiano Ronaldo looks to have a second career lined up after he retires from soccer. The Portuguese star launched a YouTube channel on Wednesday and has already gained over 4 million subscribers in a few hours.

The YouTube launch was clearly planned out as CR7 posted 18 videos on his account Wednesday. The videos range from game shows with his wife Georgina Rodríguez, rating his goals, free kick challenges and more.

Whoever is directing his videos clearly knows a thing or two about YouTube as the videos have high quality footage and editing.

Plenty of United States women’s national team talk this summer has been around Alex Morgan being left off the Olympic roster. As for Morgan? She’s enjoying the Italian water and sunshine on vacation.

She and former USWNT teammate Kelley O’Hara experienced a double-date getaway to the Mediterranean this July. The two are living their best lives enjoying food and drinks while jumping off boats into the sea.

The new Inter Miami Dolphins jersey was revealed on Tuesday as one of five new Major League Soccer Archive Collection kits. All five of the new third kits are beautiful, but Miami’s has caught the most attention.

Matching the same colors as the NFL’s Miami Dolphins, Lionel Messi and company will have the option of wearing aqua, orange and white for the rest of the 2024 season and 2025. The “MIAMI” font on the front is a nod to the 80’s show “Miami Vice.”

These are stunning.

The European Championship never fails to bring out the best of soccer fandom. We’ve seen Albanians destroying spaghetti to torment Italians and now we have a viral Netherlands fans dancing in street video ahead of their opener vs. Poland.

When we say “dancing in street” we don’t mean a large group of people doing their own moves. We’re talking about thousands of fans in sync turning the streets of Hamburg into an orange mass moving in unison.

Lionel Messi announced the launch of his very own sports drink company, with fans calling out the Inter Miami superstar for ‘copying’ another hydration drink’s bottle design.

Messi, alongside his wife and family, posed and previewed some of the flavors and bottle colors of Más+. 

Athletic Club’s 40-year wait for a title was ended with Saturday’s Copa del Rey triumph on Saturday against Mallorca. The team and people of Bilbao celebrated in awesome fashion on Thursday with a parade on the water.

The club has a tradition unlike any other as the players board “La Gabarra” a barge used to carry the players and trophy. The barge has been waiting 40 years for a parade through town.

It’s estimated that nearly a million people flocked to Bilbao to witness the spectacle on the Nervión. Scenes like this are what make this sport so special.
