Brazil lost their second consecutive World Cup qualifier match as Colombia fought back to win 2-1 against the five-time champions, who dropped to fifth place in the South American standings on Thursday.
It was a cathartic evening for Liverpool forward Luis Díaz, who scored twice within four minutes late in the second-half to give his country the shock win just days after Colombian guerrillas freed his kidnapped father.
Saturday’s NWSL Championship victory was a dream ending to Ali Krieger’s illustrious career. The cherry on top was a surprise from an old friend.
Gotham FC’s celebrations after defeating OL Reign 2-1 were full of joyous tears as the team that finished dead-last in 2022 rebounded in the greatest way possible. Krieger helped lead the team to her first NWSL Championship and received a litany of hugs and congratulations.
One of the best moments came when Krieger was told to turn around and her former teammate Sydney Leroux was standing there with her family.
Kylian Mbappe grabbed a hat-trick as Paris St Germain moved top of Ligue 1 with a 3-0 victory at fourth-placed Reims on Saturday.
Champions PSG top the standings with 27 points, one ahead of Nice who played out a goalless draw at Montpellier on Friday.
Mbappe scored after three minutes, receiving a cross unmarked at the back post and calmly slotting a low volley into the bottom corner of the net.
WHAAAAAAAT! Mbappé, what did you do?! WHAT A GOLAZO!
Goalkeepers of the game are often understood as the less technical and skillful players on the field, as their main duty is to use their hands to stop the opposing team from putting the ball in the back of their net.
However, a goalkeeper in Portugal threw the stereotypical script out the window and pulled off one of the most disrespectful nutmegs we’ve ever seen.
He might be him.
Ligue 1 side Toulouse pulled off a major upset in the Europa League on Thursday defeating English giants Liverpool 3-2. Watch as the 18-year-old Toulouse goalkeeper leads chants with the ultras after the game.

With his side Gremio trailing Brazilian Série A league leaders Botafogo 3-1, Suárez netted a hat trick in the span of 19 minutes to pull his side ahead.
Suárez may be turning 37 next January, but he’s shown that he hasn’t lost any of his goal scoring abilities.
One aspect of fandom that soccer culture does better than any sport in the world is the making of tifos. The latest AC Milan tifo vs PSG battle is one of the best we’ve seen in a long time.
PSG threw the first artistic punch when the two sides met at the Parc des Princes on Oct. 25 in the Champions League. Before the game started the PSG faithful raised a great tifo of one of their founders and actor, Jean-Paul Belmondo.
Lionel Messi scored and assisted for fun.
The ongoing debate on whether or not Lionel Messi deserved the Ballon d’Or this year over Erling Haaland will probably go on for years to come. The head-to-head between the two for the award has arguably been one of the most divisive in recent years.
American Botafogo owner John Textor had an all-time TV rant on Wednesday after his side lost a dramatic game to Palmeiras in Brazil’s Série A 4-3.
Botafogo sit top of the table with 59 points and Palmeiras sit second-place hot on their heels. The top of the table matchup saw Textor’s side take a 3-0 lead after 36 minutes.
Soon-to-be Real Madrid star Endrick got one back for Palmeiras in the 49th minute, but it looked like Botafogo would hold on for a win.
