An amazing Alyssa Thompson goal vs Iceland opened the scoring for the United States women’s national team in their 3-1 victory on Thursday. The goal also marked Thompson’s first for the Stars and Stripes.

United States phenom Cavan Sullivan made his second-ever Major League Soccer appearance for the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday and wowed fans with a clever dribble.

Brazil and Real Madrid phenom Endrick made his Champions League debut on Tuesday and made it a memorable one as he scored in a 3-1 victory vs. Stuttgart.

Endrick was substituted into the game for Jude Bellingham in the 80th minute and scored 15 minutes later in stoppage time to secure the win. 

A Real Madrid counterattack saw the 18-year-old ignore the options of passing the ball to either Kylian Mbappé or Vini Jr. as he took the opportunity himself from 30 yards out.

One of the youngsters with the most hype in the world is 14-year-old American Cavan Sullivan. The teenage attacking midfielder is the youngest MLS player in history, has already signed with Manchester City and scored a worldie on Monday.

During an MLS Next Pro game against Columbus Crew 2, Sullivan opened the scoring in the 29th minute with a fantastic finish.

The phenom received the ball from outside the box following a cleared corner kick and lasered a shot to the far post. What a strike.

The Lamine Yamal goal vs France during Spain’s 2-1 Euro semifinal victory is a moment that will be discussed for decades to come.

Yamal has been setting records left and right during this Euros campaign and found the back of the net for the first time on Tuesday. The 16-year-old is now the youngest player in history to score at the Euros.

With Spain trailing 1-0, Yamal audaciously struck from outside the France penalty area to score a worldie. Goalkeeper Mike Maignan was left with no chance as Yamine’s curling effort hit off the post and in.

A world class Arda Güler goal vs Georgia proved to be the difference in Group F’s wildly entertaining first game as Turkey secured an enthralling 3-1 victory.
