Should Ronaldo Have Seen Red? A Lot Of People Seem To Think So

Group B went batshit crazy on Monday, but when the dust settled and the VAR screen had been flicked off, nothing had changed over the course of 90 overly dramatic minutes in Russia: Spain finish top and will play Russia, Portugal finish runners-up and take on Uruguay. One major talking point is that the European champions could’ve been preparing for that game without Cristiano Ronaldo, who was given a VAR-inspired yellow card for an off-the-ball elbow.

Landon Donovan Put On Blast By Former USMNT Players For Supporting Mexico

In the eyes of many, USMNT legend Landon Donovan is now a massive sell-out. The man with the second-most appearances in the history of the USMNT and the joint-leader for goals has decided to support El Tri at the World Cup (in partnership with Wells Fargo) despite his role in turning the Mexico-United States soccer rivalry into one of the biggest in the world.

Did This Sergio Ramos Elbow Cost Liverpool The Champions League Title?

Early in the second half of Saturday's Champions League final, Liverpool fans were still hot over Sergio Ramos' controversial tackle that knocked Mo Salah out of the game. Ironically, the focus on Salah might have detracted from the attention given to a Sergio Ramos elbow on Liverpool keeper Loris Karius.

Kiev Thug Gets Knocked Out After Picking A Fight Ahead Of Champions League Final

Some people just like to pick fights. And some people have poor judgement when it comes to whom they pick fights with. This Kiev thug is a case in point.

Jurgen Klinsmann Hits Back At Bruce Arena In His Own Subtle Way After USMNT Debacle

Bruce Arena and Jurgen Klinsmann are two very different people both hung with the blame for failing to get the U.S. to the 2018 World Cup (because it’s easier to blame coaches than the players fans worship). 

Arda Turan Handed 16-Game Ban For Attacking An Official

Last Friday, Istanbul Basaksehir slipped to a disastrous 1-1 home draw with Sivasspor, a result that almost certainly handed the Turkish Super Lig title to either Galatasaray or Fenerbahce with only two matches to play. Leading 1-0 heading into second half stoppage time, Istanbul Basaksehir goalkeeper Volkan Babacan surrendered this calamitous own goal to doom his club’s title hopes.

Paul Pogba’s Brother Florentin Fights With Teammates After Walking Off Injured In Pivotal Match

On Sunday, in a pivotal relegation match for his side, Florentin Pogba, Paul’s older brother, injured his knee. Pogba then decided to limp off the pitch in the 85th minute, only to be angrily confronted by his Genclerbirligi teammates. 

Shit Hits The Fan In El Clasico As Messi Goes Full Goon And Sergi Roberto Sees Red

It’s never a proper El Clasico without a bit of blood and thunder (coupled with some extremely cringeworthy theatrics), but a brilliant opening 15 minutes has been followed by some pretty pathetic (but extremely entertaining) bickering from both sides, culminating in a straight red card to Sergi Roberto just before the halftime whistle.

Marcelo Admits To Handball While Arturo Vidal Rages On Social Media

In the end, Bayern Munich only has itself to blame. If you want to get particular about it, it’s left back Rafinha and goalkeeper Sven Ulreich who deserve the most condemnation. The duo absolutely gifted Real Madrid two of its four goals, a devastating bit of self-sabotage against the back-to-back world champion.

Landon Donovan’s Forgettable Season In Mexico Ends With A Brawl

La primera temporada de Landon Donovan en la Liga MX terminó el sábado con el Club León derrotando al Guadalajara 2-0 en un partido entre dos clubes ya eliminados de la contienda de playoffs.
