A Superb Strike From Thomas Meunier Was A Nail In The Coffin For Real Madrid
OLE! Fantastic Goal Alert! Thomas Menuier silenced the Spanish fans as he took a poor pass out of the back from Real Madrid and TRULY made them pay the ultimate price. The price happened to be a upper ninety shifting laser off of his left boot. Real Madrid missing most of their starters for this International Champions Cup were put to bed after being down 3-0 40 minutes into their match against PSG. Although it still is preseason could PSG still be a team to make a solid UCL run without Zlatan? I guess we will find out! Which goal was better, PSG's 1-0 or this one? You decide!
McNamara Breaks The Sound Barrier In A Rough Match For NYCFC
NYCFC took a 4-1 beating in the New York Derby Sunday afternoon after Bradley Wright-Phillips netted a brace. It was a one sided affair but NYCFC seemed to never go away due to Thomas McNamara's clinging to dear life. McNamara pulled NYCFC one goal closer at the very end of the first half with an absolute screamer that injected hope into visitors. A dream strike it was after he took a touch across his body and looked up to see the time and space he had. McNamara was nearly the hero again in the 53rd minute when a similar strike just hit the cross bar and bounced off.
The Classiest Of Finishes From Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain
Arsenal's preseason friendly was nothing special as they drew 1-1 with Lens but as fans, Alex Chamberlain's goal was all we needed. "Absolute class" from the midfielder as he coolly chipped the Lens goalkeeper for a magical moment. It was the picture perfect chip that we all dream about when thinking of roofing our buddy thats a keeper. Cheers mate, great placement!
Dembele Roasts Man United
Recent signee, Ousmane Dembele roasted the defense of Manchester United to put the game completely out of reach Friday morning as he tallied Dortmund's 3rd goal of the match. A rough start for José Mourinho, as Man U had a disorderly day which led to a 4-1 beating but still a friendly at the end of the day. Dortmund is a team to be reckoned with this upcoming fall with Mario Gotze returning to join Reus while also signing German star, André Schürrle. A brilliant solo goal for Dembele is one that we hope to see more of this season.

Techera Scores A Left Footed Spinning Torpedo
An interesting 18th week in the MLS had some own goals, a goal saving handball (great stuff FC Dallas), an extraordinary hat trick by Clint Dempsey (goal, assist and a red card), and a preposterous banger courtesy of Cristian Techera. Fresh off of a 1-0 lead, Vancouver took advantage of another chance just minutes later to put the game out of reach. A failed freekick attempt led to a ball bouncing back out of the box where Techera received a pass to then take his chances with the ball on his left foot.
Éder's Cannon Perfectly Capped Off Euro 2016
Euro 2016 was emotional, inspiring, heartbreaking, beautiful and most definitely perfectly capped off Sunday night in Paris as Portugal hoisted the trophy after fighting off many roadblocks. A narrow advance to the knockout rounds after finishing 3rd place in their group, losing Pepe for the semifinals and lastly, watching their superstar be stretchered off in the early moments of the final was definitely enough for a team to lose hope. But the Portuguese dug deep and held off waves of attack from the French to earn a single moment in Euro history that will be forever remembered.

Ronaldo's Smashing Header Proved To Be The Winner Against Wales
The rise, the connection, the shake of the back of the net and the famous celebration. Cristiano Ronaldo's header can only be described as towering. His elevation made him look like he was floating above the Welsh defenders as he smashed a beautiful service past the waiting goalkeeper. Portugal being criticized for not finishing off a single game in this tournament in regular time, left no question in the minds of the doubters as they showed Wales the exit door with a 2-0 decisive win. Ronaldo now has the chance to do what Messi could not do in June... win a major tournament.
