Last night’s Saturday Night Live was hosted by English actor Idris Elba, and the show used his presence to cast him as an injured player making an appearance on Sky Sports. 

The GOAT has made his Hollywood presence felt across the country by joining Jimmy Kimmel again, about a year after Zlatan Ibrahimovic's memorable first appearance on the late-night talk show.

Ibra reflected on his first season with the Galaxy, being named captain and family life in Los Angeles.

He confirmed there is something he is not good at. Surprisingly, its Sweden’s second greatest accomplishment: IKEA.

Last night, León (The Club That Landon Built) defeated Pumas 3-1 in a match that was played 10-on-10 for 20 minutes. José Juan Macías, Ángel Mena and Vinicio Angulo were among the goals for León, who stayed within touching distance of Tigres and Monterrey at the top of the Clausura table. 

As a striker, you’ve gotta do whatever it takes to score. Sometimes that means bending the rules and using your hand. Sometimes that means using every inch of your body, like this Edin Dzeko goal vs Frosinone on Saturday.

AS Roma had a wild trip to Frosinone’s Stadio Benito Stirpe on Saturday night. The home side led after five minutes, Roma took the lead with two goals in 72 seconds and Frosinone equalized in the 80th minute. 

The Bafétimbi Gomis celebration is one of our favorites. He gets on all fours and crawls forward, pawing his arms out like a big cat. 

Valentine’s Day is a time for Hallmark to sell cards, Russell Stover to sell chocolates and your local florist to sell flowers. It’s a time for partners to celebrate their love and single people to dwell on their wretched singleness. It’s not a time for this idiot playing FIFA.

To all the FIFA players with significant others out there this Valentine’s Day, please do not treat your partner like this idiot playing FIFA.

Some of these 2019 MLS kits are looking pretty tasty. Given the time constraints placed on FC Cincinnati after being announced as an expansion club last May, we think the new boys still pulled off an admirable look for Year One.

Tottenham stayed lurking in the Premier League title race with a 3-1 victory over Leicester City on Sunday, but it wasn’t that straightforward. Dávinson Sánchez gave Spurs the lead on 33 minutes, but they wouldn’t improve on that advantage until after the hour mark, and minutes before that, things should have been level.

A foray forward from the Foxes ultimately resulted in James Maddison being barged over by Jan Vertonghen, and Leicester used the resulting stoppage in play to bring on Jamie Vardy for Demarai Gray. 

In a sequence of events that involved one man taking a ball to the face, another shanking the hell out of an overhead kick and a third connecting sweetly with a chilena of his own, we witnessed football’s most spectacular sight three times inside five seconds in the video above.

It’s not often you encounter a team with this kind of chutzpah. Usually, someone would opt for an approach other than the most notoriously advanced skill in the game, but these boys showed that anything other than a bicycle kick is simply a waste of time.

While most clubs across continental Europe have returned from their winter sojourns to warmer climes, Paris Saint-Germain has been in Doha this week for its Qatar Tour 2019. 

Given the club’s Qatari ownership, it’s no surprise the club would visit the small but wealthy country, providing plenty of weird interview opportunities where Neymar can tell everyone that 18-year-old American Tim Weah will be the next great striker.
