Water-Logged Pitch Leads To One Of The Greatest Rain-Assisted Goals Of All Time

24-year-old Mexico international Jesus Gallardo scored his first goal for Monterrey last night, and it was easily the greatest goal in the history of los Rayados

With torrential rain turning the pitch at Estadio BBVA Bancomer into soup during Monterrey’s Liga MX encounter with Club Tijuana, Gallardo used the treacherous conditions to embark on the sort of counterattack that hasn’t been seen since Kevin Costner was gunning around on a jet ski in Waterworld.

El Señor Wayne Dazzles With Another Two-Goal Performance

When the time comes, the 2018 MLS MVP award will almost certainly go to Atlanta United’s Josef Martinez. However, it says everything about the impact Wayne Rooney has had since arriving at D.C. United back in July that he’s even being mentioned in the conversation. 

Before Rooney arrived, United had played 14 matches while totaling only 11 points. After United crushed the Montreal Impact 5-0 at Audi Field Saturday, the club has now played 15 matches with Rooney and recorded 27 points.

The Best, Who? Messi Saves The Day In Barcelona

Barca was having a hard time on Saturday, trailing in the game against Athletic de Bilbao until almost the 80th minute.

In Outrageous 15-Minute Span, Pablo Fornals Breaks Someone’s Ankles And Hits Wonder Goal

Lost in all the hullabaloo surrounding the defeats that Barcelona and Real Madrid suffered yesterday was the fact that Villarreal’s Pablo Fornals put on one of the most exquisite 15-minute displays of football the game has ever seen. 

It’s not 15 minutes of consecutive footballing brilliance, but once you see the highlights you’ll understand.

Christian Pulisic Drops A Dynamite Assist In Dortmund’s 7-0 Win

Borussia Dortmund climbed to second in the Bundesliga table — just two points behind leader Bayern Munich following its surprising draw with Augsburg on Tuesday — after thumping Nurnberg 7-0 at the Westfalenstadion on Wednesday.

Since returning from a muscular injury, Christian Pulisic has been at his best for BVB, scoring in back-to-back matches before assisting on Dortmund’s first goal on Wednesday.

Which Was Better: Mazy Messi Run Or Vicious Coutinho Volley?

Lionel Messi is only the fifth best player in the world, according to FIFA. At least one LaLiga club would probably beg to differ after the Argentine set up this Philippe Coutinho goal vs Leganes on Wednesday.

After finishing Apertura Copa MX group play with a record of three wins, one draw and a +8 goal difference, Club América grabbed the No. 1 seed in the knockout bracket, setting up a clash with No. 16 seed FC Juárez, which advanced to the knockout stage by the skin of its teeth as the seventh-best second-place finisher. 

USMNT Midfielder Luca De La Torre Scores First Fulham Goal And Adds Two Assists
