David Silva Marks 250th EPL Appearance With A Stunning Free Kick

David Silva made his 250th Premier League appearance and marked the occasion with a stunning free kick in Manchester City’s 6-1 destruction of Huddersfield on Sunday. The 32-year-old Silva joined City from Valencia back in 2010, and the 2018-19 season marks his ninth with the club. 

His afternoon also saw him join a select group of Spaniards to have made 250 appearances in England’s top flight — only Chelsea’s Cesc Fabregas, goalkeeper Pepe Reina (now at Milan) and current City assistant coach Mikel Arteta have accomplished the same feat.  

Wayne Rooney Produces Some More MLS Magic With Brace Against Portland

Like a certain fellow Washington D.C. resident might put it, Wayne Rooney is YUGE right now. This past weekend against Orlando, the former Manchester United man effectively broke the greater soccer world with one play. Rooney sprinted full speed — nearly half the length of the field — to track down a player, made a clean tackle and then hit a dime — nearly half the length of the field — to Luciano Acosta on the back post, who headed the ball home to give DC United the win in the 96th minute.

Iniesta Gives Another Lesson In Fine Arts Football With A Second Stunner In Japan

Former Spain and Barcelona man Andrés Iniesta has taken his talents across the world to Japan, and though at 34 he is in the tail end of his career, the legend is certainly showing no indication he will be going quietly into that good night. Rather, it seems his mission is to bust open the J-League at the seams one golazo at a time. 

Ousmane Dembele’s Wonder Strike Gifts Barca The Spanish Super Cup

Barcelona defeated Sevilla 2-1 in the 2018 Spanish Super Cup thanks to goals from Gerard Pique and Ousmane Dembele. Pablo Sarabia had given Sevilla an early lead in the ninth minute, but Barcelona’s comeback was complete when Dembele thundered in a crossbar down effort in the 78th.

Sevilla earned a penalty and had a chance to equalize from the spot in the 90th minute, but Marc-Andre ter Stegen saved Wissam Ben Yedder’s tame effort.

This Woman Hit The Most Impressive First-Time Volley Goal From Midfield You’ll Ever See

Was this the best women's soccer goal ever? 

Playing for Cliftonville in Northern Ireland’s Women’s Premiership, Billie Simpson smacked the ever-loving snot out of the ball to score what might be the best women's soccer goal of the year, if not ever. 

Not only did Simpson score from inside her own half, she struck a first-time volley straight off a 50-yard goal kick from Niamh Malley. 

Richarlison Shows Why Everton Paid $52M For Him With Brace In Debut

Luke Skywalker’s favorite soccer team is back in the Premier League but Everton’s new star stole the headlines on Saturday. Two Richarlison goals vs Wolves helped propel Everton to a 2-2 draw despite playing most of the match with 10 men after Phil Jagielka was sent off.

Roberto Pereyra Is Your Early EPL Golden Boot Leader After This Stunning Volley

The EPL Golden Boot will probably be won by someone like Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane or Sergio Aguero. But the man currently leading the race is a Watford midfielder who tallied twice on Saturday — and the first Roberto Pereyra goal is an early leader for Goal of the Season.

Andrés Iniesta Scores First Goal In Japan And It’s An Absolute Beauty

An absolutely beautiful Andrés Iniesta goal gave the former Barcelona man his first goal in the J League with Vissel Kobe on Saturday. And the assist came from a familiar face for many fans of European football.

Iniesta began the move in his own half before continuing his run all the way into the box where he was spotted by one Lukas Podolski. The former Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Cologne striker found Iniesta with a great pass, but the turn Iniesta made to escape his defender was absolutely sublime.

Bastian Schweinsteiger Hammers One From Over 30 Yards Out

Bastian Schweinsteiger scored the seventh goal of his MLS career last night (his fourth of the 2018 season), and it was undoubtedly the best strike of his Chicago Fire tenure. Chicago was trailing 1-0 in the 48th minute after Damir Kreilach had given Real Salt Lake the advantage, but Schweinsteiger quieted the 19,817 inside Rio Tinto Stadium with this sensational long-range bomb. 

Mo Salah Shows Midseason Form With Perfectly Placed Preseason Goal

Liverpool eviscerated Napoli on Saturday in the final preseason tune-up for Jurgen Klopp’s side. The match finished 5-0 and, perhaps most importantly, the Mo Salah goal vs Napoli showed the Egyptian is already in midseason form. 

The Reds took a lead inside five minutes through James Milner and led 2-0 before the 10th minute with a header from Georgino Wijnaldum. But the first goal of the second half was by far the prettiest.
