In 2015, Spanish club Athletic Bilbao started the "One Club Man Award," which aims to celebrate players outside of Athletic who spent their entire career at one club. The first award was given to Southampton's Matt Le Tissier last year, in recognition of "Le God's" 16 seasons at the the English club.
Here are some numbers concerning Barcelona's La Liga form during the last two weeks, none of which we are making up.
Barca have scored 14 goals in their last two games, eight against Deportivo la Coruna and six against Sporting Gijon. They have not been scored against. Eight of those goals were scored by Luis Suarez, four in each game. Four of those goals were assisted by Luis Suarez, three against Deportivo and one against Sporting.
We'll give Napoli this: they put up quite a fight. Gonzalo Higuain and company kept the Serie A race at least watchable for most of the season, and for 88 minutes Monday against Roma it looked like the race would continue, at least mathematically, for another week. Then Roma's Radja Nainggolan put Napoli in a 1-0 hole and handed the Scudetto to Paul Pogba and Juventus, the Old Lady's fifth straight title.
And then during the celebration, Paul Pogba, one of the world's most coordinated humans, got super turnt and did this.
It'e nearing the end of the season in Portugal's Premeira Liga, and the title is still very much up for contention. Leaders Benfica hold a two point lead over second-place Sporting CP thanks to some late heroics this Sunday against Rio Ave by Benfica's 24-year-old Mexican striker, Raul Jimenez.
In the 73rd minute, Benfica found themselves 0-0 with sixth-place Rio Ave, and if the game had ended with that score Benfica would only be ahead in the league on goal differential. Jimenez had other plans, however, and they involved using his head.
It's a rumour that is becoming more exasperating by the day. Will Jose Mourinho pack his bags and leave his beloved London? Will he relieve his former teacher, Louis Van Gaal, from his duties at Old Trafford, thus repeating every kung fu movie plotline ever? Well, it kind of depends who you ask.
On Friday, Liverpool FC defender Mamadou Sakho was named in a UEFA investigation concerning a possible anti-doping violation.
Bayer Leverkusen and Mexico National Team striker Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez is already having the best club season of his professional career, and it just keeps getting better for the Little Pea.
Leverkusen found themselves losing 2-0 to Schalke 04 early in the second half Saturday before scoring three goals in six minutes to capture a lead they wouldn't relinquish.
Chicharito got the third, which proved to be the eventual winner.
Usually when the phrase "adding insult to injury" is used, it isn't because the injured party then made it worst by insulting themselves. That, however, is just what happened during AC Milan's Serie A match against 17th place Carpi.
Ac Milan have gone from the best team in the world to performing the Haka for money in just 11 years...Bizarre.

How are Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku so good? It must be the boots. Nike Mercurials to be exact. We all know that’s certainly not the case — there’s no question that the footballer makes the boots and not the other way around.
Luis Nani was ready to send in a freekick hoping to find his teammate's head. The angle was difficult for shot on goal, however Nani is not your average football player. Instead of swinging in a cross, Nani went for goal and floated it into the back right corner over the keeper's outstretched paw. Nani's goal put Turkish giants, Fenerbahce up 2 - 0 right before half time. RVP would add a third in the 90'.
