Ronaldo Wasn't Always Special. He Just Explained How He Found Out He Was.

At some point in every superstar’s life they were normal. It’s hard to imagine that someone so perfect, so often worshipped by society as an example of what we should be, could ever be normal. With being normal comes doubts and insecurities, timidity and apprehension. Maybe that’s why people so often dream about their own ascension into stardom, because it’s so hard to believe.

Cristiano Ronaldo Made This Orphan's Christmas. It Will Melt Your Heart

It seems like every heartwarming Christmas story features an adorable orphan, and Cristiano Ronaldo's heartwarming Christmas story is no different.

Neymar’s New Tattoo Shows How Much He Cares About Staying Humble

It’s been fascinating to see Neymar grow as a player. Once a teenager in Brazil that was capable of pulling off ridiculous goals against subpar competition, he is now a young man in Spain playing for Barcelona, pulling off even more ridiculous goals against world-class defenders. But for all of the success he has on the pitch, he is still humble, and that is what Neymar’s new tattoo reinforces. 

Rocky Rodriguez Leads Penn State To First Ever National Championship

With just under 20 minutes left to play in the 2015 Women’s College Cup, Mallory Weber received the ball on the sideline and heard a very familiar sound.

Messi ha revelado la única cosa que espera que sus hijos entiendan de él

Lionel Messi es uno de los jugadores de habla más suave del mundo. Si no fuera constantemente uno de los dos mejores, si en vez de eso fuera un jugador medio que saliera al campo para el Stoke City cada fin de semana, entonces hay razones para creer que sólo los fans más duros sabrían quién es. Es increíblemente irónico, entonces, que haya subido a la fama en los albores de la era de las redes sociales, en un momento en el que todo el mundo se está haciendo un nombre a través de sus personalidades.

Neymar Played With Pros At 14 Years Old. His Skills Left Them All Smiling.

It’s not surprising that Neymar was a standout soccer player his entire life. It’s expected. He’s one of the best players in the world right now. That doesn’t just happen overnight. That, however, doesn’t make it any less impressive to see Neymar playing in Brazil age of 14, running around with professionals, including the likes of Robinho and Romario, and fitting in. Sure, the video below is of a charity match, and because of that I can guarantee none of the professional footballers in it are trying hard, but Neymar’s skill is still evident. 

90,000 England Fans Sing French National Anthem Before France vs England

She Dressed Like A Man. Let Her Hair Out. Then Scored The Goal To Shock Them All.

What we know and don’t know can influence us all, it can change our perceptions and then change our opinions. That’s the kind of change Brenda Perez and the Spanish television show El Hormiguero had in mind when they dressed up Perez, a 21-year-old professional footballer, as a man and then set her loose in a men’s amateur match. They are smart, because few things alter your opinion more than seeing a young woman school a men’s team.
