Carli Lloyd isn’t slowing down on the Women’s World Cup celebrations, especially with her birthday coming up next week.

After watching the Swedish women’s national team finish third at the Women’s World Cup, it appears the men’s national team is going to drastic measures to keep up with the women.

As highlighted by @medverk on Instagram, Sweden is turning to machinery to improve its soccer team, because Zlatan Ibrahimovic just can’t cut it compared to Kosovare Asllani.

The USWNT clinched its fourth World Cup crown — and successfully defended its 2015 title — by defeating the Netherlands 2-0 on Sunday thanks to goals from Megan Rapinoe and Rose Lavelle. The U.S.

Mario Balotelli is enjoying his summer.

On Saturday, the Italian striker posted an Instagram video of a man he apparently paid €2,000 ($2,246 USD) to ride his moped into the ocean.

We’re not sure if Balotelli required this man to do it in his tighty whities or the man just didn’t want to get his clothes wet, but what followed was the exact thing social media was created for.

The Alex Morgan tea-sipping celebration is catching fire across the country, even finding its way to a minor-league baseball game in the Texas Panhandle town of Amarillo.

While you were probably busy pounding beers and watching fireworks, Zlatan Ibrahimovic had one of his busiest days of the year.

The Galaxy striker had to carry his team to its 11th win, scoring two goals to secure that win. He then joined the internet in the #BottleCapChallenge trend.

And he did all of this, with his name misspelled on his jersey.

Leslie Jones, the inimitable comedian of Saturday Night Live and Ghostbusters fame, seems to have just discovered the USWNT and she was losing her shit — in her own unique, lovely way — when the Americans beat England in the Women’s World Cup semifinals on Tuesday.

Just hours before NBA free agency opened on Sunday, June 30, Antoine Griezmann dropped his new highlight tape, but not in the sport we’d expect. The French star was seen balling with the Miami Heat, living his best life in the offseason.

At the same time, Atletico Madrid and just about everyone else has announced the Frenchman’s exit from the Spanish club. Griezmann has had fans glued to their phones waiting for news to break about the star’s next team.

It was to no one's surprise that the Seattle Sounders were short-handed during this international break. What has made it worse is that injuries have started to pile up as well. All of this played into Saturday's match against the Vancouver Whitecaps, where only five of their usual starting XI featured. This meant that the Sounders had to rely heavily on their youth.

Up stepped 16-year-old Danny Leyva.

Is Wesley Sneijder having a midlife crisis or just enjoying himself a bit too much?

The Dutch international and former Ajax, Real Madrid and Inter Milan star was arrested for damaging a vehicle by drunkenly dancing on it.

Sneijder reportedly caused €6,000 euros (about $6,834 USD) in damage when he jumped on top of a vehicle in a drunken state.
