TMZ asked Zlatan his thoughts on the FIFA scandal, and it went about as well as you'd expect.
"I don't know. It's not my area. I play soccer," Zlatan said.
Hear that? ZLATAN CALLED IT SOCCER. This is further proof that America is taking over the game. It's no longer "football." It's "soccer." Zlatan said so.
Now that one of the best players in the world called it soccer, the can be no stopping it. Get used to soccer, rest of the world.
Dennis Schroder (a.k.a. "German Rondo") of the Atlanta Hawks is a basketball player, and you would think that means he is not very good with his feet, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Check him out performing some fancy freestyle skills on a basketball court before nodding the ball through the net. He makes it look easy.
It must be the German in him.

With the final of the 2015 World Cup just around the corner, it’s time to get your mind off of the stress surrounding that colossal event by paying attention to the little things in life. Little problems, that is.
See, even the world-class ladies of the USWNT have problems, and the girls over at Soccer Girl Probs managed to get a majority of the team to tell the world just what #SoccerGirlProbs are the worst.
Check out the hilarious video here:
This is what leadership is.
England manager Mark Sampson gave a touching interview about Laura Bassett's own-goal and England's heartbreaking exit from the Women's World Cup.
Sampson called Bassett a hero for her play throughout the World Cup and said she doesn't deserve the World Cup ending that she got.
Gareth Bale is really happy that Sony Mobile are sponsoring the Champions League.
In a new video, he's shown giving his support for Sony Mobile as the new Champions League sponsors before hitting a trick shot with a basketball (he kicked it, obviously).
Why he did this, we can only speculate. The shot was cool, though.
Russia has unveiled the 10 candidates for the 2018 World Cup mascot and they are, um, interesting.
Have you ever wanted to just take out an opposing player for a bad tackle they committed? Look no further, because in this modified soccer match it is encouraged to hit your opponents as hard as possible.
Bubble soccer is becoming another sporting craze that takes the world’s sport and puts on a twist. We’ve seen FootGolf, a hybrid of soccer and golf, that focuses on finesse and accuracy and now we can indulge on the dirty side of the sport.
Zinedine Zidane, apparently, can still dribble the you-know-what out of the ball. Zidane and his son Enzo, a midfielder in Real Madrid's system (who is no slouch himself with the ball at his feet), took on two freestylers in some kind of weird freestyle dribbling game.
Steven Gerrard has given a ot of interviews about leaving Liverpool since his decision to leave the club for the LA Galaxy was announced, but none of them are as candid or insightful as this one with former England teammate Rio Ferdinand.
There are a few names for what Chile's Gonzalo Jara did to Uruguay's Edinson Cavani in the Copa America quarterfinals, which Chile won, 1-0.
One of my coworkers called it "credit-carding." A friend who played high school soccer with my cousin calls it "checking his oil." My high school basketball coach calls it "cornholing."
There's no way to sugarcoat this: Gonzalo Jara gave Edinson Cavani an involuntary prostate exam. He stuck his finger up Edinson Cavani's ass. Then he fell to the ground and pretended Cavani hit him in the face.
