The Millwall miscreants that call themselves fans made headlines over the weekend for booing the players who kneeled before kickoff ahead of the club's match against Derby County.
Their racist demonstration against the Black Lives Matter movement was a frustrating event that overshadowed the return of fans to English football grounds.

An Iranian player scored the furthest somersault throw-in goal that you will ever see during a Persian Gulf Pro League game on Monday.

The Finland women’s national team scored a ridiculous last-minute goal against Scotland on Tuesday to win 1-0 and keep its dream alive of qualifying for the 2022 UEFA Women’s Championship.

Tuesday was a day of wacky celebrations to be sure. Myrto Uzuni mocking Cristiano Ronaldo’s signature celly was absolutely ridiculous. The question is, was Uzuni’s move as dramatic as this reaction to perhaps the easiest goal ever in the Polish Ekstraklasa?
