Este tipo literalmente baila en el campo cuando saca habilidades

Estoy indeciso. Si jugara contra el futbolista sudafricano Thabo Rakhale me enfadaría mucho. Diría cosas como, "nada de lo que hace tiene ningún impacto en el juego". Actuaría como un blanco normal, pero trataría de encerrarlo, robar el balón, y asegurarme de que sus tonterías nunca funcionen. No puedo evitar ser como soy.

Pero mirándolo... quiero gritar "¡bájalo!" cada vez que toca el balón y gritarle a todos los defensores que intentan protegerlo, "ES UN HOMBRE MAAALO". 

South Africa Has More Swag Than Any Other Footballing Nation

The late 19th century to the end of the apartheid era in South Africa saw the rise of townships, urban living areas, built on the periphery of towns and cities. Reserved for non-whites, these sprawling and often underdeveloped slums were contrived as separate living spaces for working class and unemployed black, colored and Indian inhabitants. 

Townships were also referred to as locations or lokasie in Afrikaans. Lokasie gave way to the colloquial term kasi, a word which now encompasses the flavor and distinct style of the townships.

Zlatan Continues To Do Zlatan Things

Are there better goals out there than Zlatan goals? Sure, lots of players score epic golazo's, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic has this flare that is just so....Zlatan. There are three things that are certain in this world. Death, taxes and that Zlatan will do something cool every time he steps on a football pitch. The Swedish star scored two Zlatanesque goals en rout to a 2-0 victory over Denmark and then after the match, the dude said that he sent the entire country of Denmark into retirement. It's Zlatan's world and we are just along for the ride. 

England Goals Vs France

Fans stood with heavy hearts across the globe as England and France took the pitch today for an international friendly to momentarily allow people to take their minds off of the horrid events that occured last Friday in Paris.

Wayne Rooney and Dele Alli scored two beauties to give England a 2-0 victory over France.
