FIFA's unveiling of the 2022 World Cup logo was . . . underwhelming. The unveiling took place in Qatar's capital Doha on Tuesday at around 8:00 p.m. local time, with thousands of spectators watching as the logo was projected on billboards and buildings throughout the city.
Union Berlin made its Bundesliga debut on Sunday afternoon, and not even a 4-0 beatdown from rivals RB Leipzig could dampen the mood at the Alte Försterei in East Berlin.
This past weekend, a photo emerged on Twitter of a bloodied young Liverpool supporter standing next to star attacker Mohamed Salah. That child is 11-year-old Reds supporter Louis Fowler, who’d spotted Salah leaving Liverpool’s Melwood training ground in his car and attempted to keep pace with the vehicle while waving at the Egyptian.
Unfortunately for Louis, in his heightened state of distraction he ran directly into a lamp post, knocking himself out and breaking his nose in the process.
A section of the roof on AZ Alkmaar’s stadium collapsed under high winds on Saturday. Fortunately, no one was injured.

The Nike Tiempo cleat — when compared with the ultraviolet Mercurial Superfly or neon Phantom Vision Elite — has long been seen as the company’s more traditional offering. That designation has coincided nicely with its growing reputation as the defender’s boot: it's no nonsense.
Although the Tiempo was originally and most famously the boot of choice for Ronaldinho, it now graces the feet of Virgil van Dijk, Sergio Ramos and Gerard Pique.
