Neymar And Luis Suarez Lead Messi-Less Barcelona To 5-0 Romp Over Sporting Gijon

Barcelona traveled to Gijon on Saturday for a difficult match against Sporting. Barcelona made their travels without Lionel Messi, who will be sidelined for three weeks with a groin injury suffered against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.

In his stead, Neymar and Luis Suarez inspired their side to a resounding 5-0 victory. Neymar registered a brace and Luis Suarez scored Barca's opening goal in the 29th minute.

DeAndre Yedlin Unplayable In First Newcastle United League Start

Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez’s preference for the tactically astute Vernon Anita at right-back has made league minutes tough to come by for DeAndre Yedlin. However, a three-match suspension for Anita opened the door for the 23-year-old American.

Yedlin was preferred to the Spaniard Jesus Gamez on Saturday for Newcastle’s league encounter with Aston Villa. The American seized his opportunity with a man of the match display but was unfortunately subbed off due to an apparent ankle injury in the 73rd minute.

You want a match summary?

Chichagol. Chichagol. Again, Chichagol.

A remarkable hat-trick from the man, the myth, the legend Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez lifted Bayer Leverkusen to a 3-2 victory over Mainz on Saturday.

If At First You Don’t Succeed, Hammer A Ridiculous Flick Volley Into The Side-Netting

Serbian striker Uros Durdevic is one of the world’s best young strikers. Unfortunately, his season in Serie A with Palermo last year was devastated by a fractured ankle. He struggled to regain form and fitness and returned to Serbia to sign for Partizan Belgrade.

Based off of this goal, it looks as though things are starting to fall into place for the 22-year-old, who led Serbia to the gold medal at the 2012 UEFA U-19 Championship.

Mario Balotelli Is Still Really Good At Soccer

We were hoping for a successful Mario Balotelli tenure at Nice. Soccer is much more fun when Balotelli is good and scoring goals and not training with the reserves in Liverpool.

So, consider this us running a (very premature) victory lap, because Balotelli is killing it in France. He has played two games. He has scored four goals. Here is his most recent brace:

Serge Gnabry’s Ultra-Violence Won Him The Bundesliga Goal Of The Week

Borussia Mönchengladbach defeated Werder Bremen 4-1 over the weekend, but the lasting memory from the match will be a heinously violent volley from Werder’s Serge Gnabry. 

The former Arsenal winger transformed from footballer to Falcon 9 launch vehicle on Saturday, forsaking touch and control for a more straightforward approach. His controlled rocket displayed a kind of precision and power that aerospace manufacturer SpaceX has yet to achieve in its rocket engines.

Fabian Johnson's Late Equalizer Rescues Draw For Borussia Monchengladbach

Most USMNT fans know Fabian Johnson is a baller left back, but some might be surprised to find that's not normally where he plays for his club, Borussia Monchengladbach. In Germany, Johnson is primarily deployed as a winger, and this 84th-minute equalizer against RB Leipzig shows why.

Johnson would probably feature on the wing for Jurgen Klinsmann's squad too if good left backs weren't so difficult to come by.

Can Celtic's Scott Sinclair Make It Six Goals In Six Games?

When Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers signed Scott Sinclair from Aston Villa during the summer transfer window, the winger was a known quantity to the bench boss. . .but few others.
