Nottingham Forest Hosts First EPL Match In 23 Years And Pulls Off Crazy West Ham Upset

An electric crowd of 30,000 at sunbathed City Ground roared its charmed Nottingham Forest side to a 1-0 win over West Ham on Sunday afternoon in the first Premier League match at the stadium in 23 years.

The buzz around Forest's first season back in the English top flight since 1998-99 has centered on the club's summer expenditure of $113 million, and after a disjointed opening day defeat away to Newcastle, Steve Cooper's new additions were the heroes in front of their home supporters today.

Sweet Grandma Falls From Her Chair Trying To Reenact Lionel Messi's Bicycle Kick Goal

Leo Messi had a flying start in Ligue 1, scoring a brace in PSG's 5-0 rout of Clermont Foot. One of those goals was a bicycle kick that sparked a few conversations around the world. Our favorite take? A sweet Argentinian grandma who fell from her chair trying to describe Messi's feat to her granddaughter. 

For comparison purposes, this is Messi's bicycle kick after a superb assist from Leandro Paredes.

There's Being Excited For The Season And Then There's Roma Right Now

Hypothetically speaking, if you could only watch one club in Europe this season from a neutral's perspective, I don't think you could find anything more dramatic or exciting than the current build of AS Roma.

The hype started last season with the return of José Mourinho to Italy, where he enjoys an unblemished reputation on the strength of his remarkable two-year period with Inter Milan. The 59-year-old didn't disappoint during his first year in Rome by landing the club's first major trophy (the inaugural Conference League) since 2008.

Equipo Argentino Captura Gol Con Un Drone Y La Secuencia Es Poesía Para Tus Ojos

Belgrano de Córdoba vive una campaña llena de éxito en la Primera Nacional o Nacional B de Argentina. El equipo es puntero, se ilusiona con el ascenso a la división de honor y en el camino va creando una narrativa de momentos imborrables para sus aficionados. Y un ejemplo de esto último es la fantástica captura desde un drone del gol que convirtió el delantero Pablo Vegetti en el empate 1-1 ante Independiente Rivadavia, el pasado 27 de julio.

England’s Brandi Chastain Moment? Not Quite — Chloe Kelly Reveals Alternate Inspiration

A record crowd cheering on the home nation at an iconic stadium on a steamy summer day. A dramatic winning strike followed by a ripped off jersey revealing a Nike sports bra. Take your pick: Brandi Chastain after winning the 1999 Women’s World Cup or the Chloe Kelly celebration after lifting England to its first European championship. 

England finally had its Brandi Chastain moment, though it turns out Kelly’s celebration wasn’t an homage to the USWNT star but to a man with two England caps to his name.  

Brenden Aaronson Provides Filthy Hat-Trick Of Assists In Leeds United Friendly

Leeds United completed its final preseason fixture ahead of opening the Premier League campaign against Wolves on Aug. 6, and Jesse Marsch's men delighted a crowd of nearly 30,000 at Elland Road with a 6-2 beatdown of Serie B side Cagliari.

Marsch selected both of his American players in the starting XI with Tyler Adams playing in the midfield pivot role alongside Marc Roca. Brenden Aaronson was in a front three with Rodrigo and Patrick Bamford.

NWSL Players Fought Hard For In-Season Vacation — They’re Vacationing Even Harder

When the NWSL players and league agreed to a landmark first-ever Collective Bargaining Agreement in February, most of the focus was on guaranteeing players a living wage, and for good reason. But among the other benefits NWSL players carved out for themselves was a mandatory seven-day break in the middle of the season — an NWSL summer vacation.
