Kansas football player has been studying Neymar with flop of the year performance

The art of flopping is attempted by many, mastered by few. Only the greats like Neymar and Arjen Robben can place themselves upon the Mount Rushmore of flops as their admirers can merely attempt to recreate their mastery.

One Kansas football player has put his name on the ballot for the best flop of 2023. During a bowl game between Kansas and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, the Jayhawk player summoned his inner Neymar after being lightly touched on the sideline.

Referee gives penalty for two attacking players colliding in what might be the worst call ever

A referee's decision in Brazil is a candidate for the worst call in the history of soccer after he awarded a penalty when two attacking players collided in the box.

The incident took place during a Copa do Brasil match between Tombense and Retro on Wednesday. 

In the 80th minute two Tombense players went for the ball in Retro’s box at the same time. One of the players accidentally stamped on his teammate’s foot. That teammate then threw himself on the ground screaming in agony.

4th-tier Grimsby Town dump Southampton out of FA Cup with a bit of the dark arts

If you're a Liverpool or Chelsea supporter disappointed with the season, just remember it could always be a lot, lot worse — you could be a Southampton fan.

The Saints are at the bottom of the Premier League table with only 18 points from 24 matches. They had Nathan Jones as manager for three months. They somehow managed to reach the Carabao Cup semifinals before losing to Newcastle, but the lasting memory there is Jacob Murphy waving off Duje Ćaleta-Car after the defender's red card.

Neymar receives RED CARD for DIVING — Kylian Mbappé saves PSG with 96th minute game-winning penalty

Brazil and Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar has many haters for one simple reason: he dives a lot. Those haters had their prayers answered on Wednesday during PSG’s 2-1 victory vs. Strasbourg when Neymar was red carded for diving.

OK, so technically it was a second yellow card, but either way the referee sent Neymar off for simulation.

His two yellow card offenses happened in less than two minutes during the second half. The first yellow card in the 61st minute was for him accidentally catching an opponent’s face with his hand. Then 85 seconds later Neymar did this.

Es hora de que Diego Lainez vuelva a la Liga MX

Las oportunidades pasan y Diego Lainez sigue sin hacer clic en Europa.

Sin opciones en el Real Betis, el extremo mexicano consiguió irse cedido  a préstamo al SC Braga de Portugal para la temporada 2022-23, con la ilusión de sumar minutos y asegurar un puesto en la nómina de México en el Mundial de Catar. Tres meses después, sin embargo, el panorama de Lainez no es alentador.

De hecho, su cosecha de minutos es tan mala que a estas alturas no sería mala idea que retornara a la Liga MX para recuperar la confianza perdida.

E interesados en contar con él no faltan.

Was That A Nipple Squeeze? The Hilarious Tête-À-Tête Between Chicharito And Michael Bradley

Toronto FC and LA Galaxy got into a heated game Wednesday night in which the boiling point was a rough but also hilarious dust-up between veterans Michael Bradley and Javier "Chicharito" Hernández. 

Michael Bradley vs. Chicharito fight

The whole ruckus started after Chicharito fouled the U.S. international. Bradley wasn't pleased with the action and complained in front of Hernandez's face. Canadian Richie Laryea, passing by, tried to stop the confrontation by pulling away Chicharito, but the Mexican acted up as if someone was dismembering him.
