Messi And Iniesta Lead 14-Pass Tiki-Taka Move Ending With Great Suarez Goal

If there’s one goal to summarize Barcelona’s 2017-18 La Liga season thus far, it’s this one from the club’s 4-0 defeat of Deportivo on Sunday — it even starts with a poor touch from Luis Suarez, something the Uruguayan has been uncharacteristically guilty of on a number of occasions this season. 

However, that touch is followed by a sensational 14-pass move from Barca and finished by Suarez, giving him six goals in his last five league games, so the striker is really beyond criticism right now. 

Real Madrid Players Are Good At Kicking Everything

Real Madrid players are really good at kicking soccer balls. This much is obvious. Of course they are good at kicking soccer balls. They play for Real Madrid, after all.

Soccer balls are not the only things Real Madrid players are good at kicking, however. As proof, watch Marcelo, Luka Modric and Mateo Kovacic tooling around with a tennis ball.

Pep Guardiola Is The Most Consistent Manager In Football

It’s official — Pep Guardiola is the most consistent manager in football. With Manchester City’s cruise-control 4-0 win over Swansea on Wendesday, Guardiola owns one of the most impressive records in each of Europe’s top three leagues. 

Manchester City has now won 15 straight Premier League matches, setting the record for consecutive victories for the English league. Guardiola also owns the same record in La Liga and the Bundesliga. It doesn’t get any more consistent than that.

Goalkeeper Ali Khaseif Was A Hero Against Real Madrid For 50 Incredible Minutes, Then He Got Hurt

For 50 glorious minutes, Ali Khaseif was a magnificent wall, stopping anything and everything thrown his way. The world’s greatest goal scorer on the world’s most expensive team had shot after shot parried away. Then, the goalie got hurt, had to come off and Real Madrid immediately took advantage on the way to a 2-1 win over Al Jazira in the Club World Cup on Wednesday.
