This is the story of Brendan O’Hare getting stuck in a soccer net and surviving off raw sweet corn, but it’s also a stern morality tale centered around finding your place in a non-corn world.

23-year-old Italian goalkeeper Emil Audero has long been viewed as one of the most promising in the world. A product of the Juventus system, Audero impressed enough on loan at Sampdoria that the club spent nearly $24 million on making the move permanent back in July of 2019.
The 2020-21 Bundesliga season started on Friday. Starting this season, ESPN has the U.S. TV rights to the league. For this reason, the Worldwide Leader is actually paying attention to the German league, which is a nice change of pace given FOX’s disappointing coverage of the Bundesliga in recent years.
ESPN's been mostly ignoring the Bundesliga for years, but now that it's on ESPN+ suddenly it's the world's funnest league to watch! pic.twitter.com/dFpMhhmNpD
Haven’t gotten enough of José Mourinho over the past 20 years or through All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur? Well he’s forcing his way onto your TV screen again through the medium of a new Netflix documentary titled The Playbook, which releases globally on Tuesday, Sept. 22.
For those that like to pretend that Lionel Messi is anything but the definition of loyal (see: marriage to childhood sweetheart Antonela Roccuzzo, 138 international appearances spent dragging a woefully unbalanced Argentina to the precipice of glory and 19 years in Barcelona), the Argentine’s latest endorsement deal with Budweiser showcases just how little he cares about your personal quest for social media recognition.
Despite Luis Suárez’s desperate plea to remain at Barcelona — going so far as to tell El Pais that he’d happily accept a substitute's role — new manager Ronald Koeman has reportedly told the 33-year-old that he has no future at the club.
In the lead-up to Bayern Munich’s Champions League quarterfinal against Barcelona, much was made over Canadian teenager Alphonso Davies’ conversation with his father about playing against his idol growing up, Lionel Messi.
Little did Pops know that Davies would use the opportunity to abuse Messi, Nelson Semedo and the rest of the Barcelona defense to set up one of the best goals of the year en route to a devastating 8-2 win.
There’s no better bromance between soccer and Hollywood in the U.S. than the relationship between David Beckham and Late Late Show host James Corden. Corden, a British comedian living in LA, has had his share of fun with Beckham, the former English midfielder who spent six seasons with the LA Galaxy.
From start to finish, the 2019-20 LaLiga season extended across 338 days. When it can prove difficult to remember what you had for dinner last night, it’s equally as challenging to remember that spectacular overhead kick that Aritz Aduriz scored against Barcelona back on August 16 of the venerated year of 2019.
The fastest LaLiga debut goal for Real Madrid since Ronaldo (and a brilliant one at that). A hat-trick on his second Champions League appearance. That ridiculous outside-of-the-foot volley against Club Brugge.
