Tattoos used to be cool. Then Mark Clattenburg went and got some. The English referee oversaw both the 2016 Champions League final and the Euro 2016 final, and he now has the tattoos to prove it.
Please tell me these are henna tattoos. They're not? Goodness.
This is a public service announcement: do not attempt to hug Lionel Messi. It will go poorly for you.
Especially don't attempt to hug Lionel Messi by jumping a barrier and landing at the entrance to the stadium tunnel.
KEEP WALKING

We love those crazy Leicester City lads. When they're not sticking it to the established order of the Premier League hierarchy, they're usually getting into a bunch of crazy shenanigans. Hence, we bring to you their new Baywatch-themed kit spot.
Once again, it is the spotlight-smitten Christian Fuchs who is taking the lead in Leicester's new video, essentially doing his best to be David Hasselhoff as he sets out to rescue the "helpless" Riyad Mahrez and Demarai Grey (apparently he did give some "Fuchs" on that day, #SomeFuchsGiven).
Nahikari Garcia is a name you most likely have never heard before, but trust us, you'll remember it now. Let's set the stage. Nahikari Garcia is the captain of the U-19 Spanish women's team.
Now, it's not easy being a team captain, especially at that age. You're expected to be the leader, a beacon of consistency and strength. You're expected to come through when your team needs you. That's why we feel really, really bad for Nahikari Garcia.
Barcelona used some rather unorthodox training methods ahead of their game against Celtic in Dublin Saturday.
The team walked out onto the pitch at St. George's Park expecting maybe some shooting drills or perhaps a little El Rondo action, only to greeted by the sight of a dozen human bubble suits.
That's right folks. The secret to Barcelona's success is intensive rounds of bubble football.
He’s been called the Chuck Norris of football. He’s referred to as a lord and “The Powerhouse”. Likened to “a blunt instrument with which to bludgeon defenses”, Emile Heskey changed the way we viewed the forward position during his playing days.
Heskey burst onto the scene with Leicester City back in 1994, and he reached his pinnacle with Liverpool during the 2000-01 season after scoring 14 Premier League goals in 36 matches.
A giant lizard took a penalty against a dolphin before a Japanese J League match. We have no idea why this happened, but we do know that, in the event of a penalty shootout, any giant lizards should not be among your five takers.
This penalty was a disaster, and not the kind Godzilla usually perpetuates. He swung at it with his tail and missed because he is not super coordinated with the whole spinning thing.
Pro Evolution Soccer, Konami’s rival to the EA Sports FIFA franchise, will be celebrating its 16th edition this year, and PES 2017 looks set to give FIFA a run for its money.
After watching the official launch trailer, I can confirm that I close my eyes and see Andres Iniesta’s 3D photo scanned face. I’m equal parts impressed and horrified.
The title of "World's Saltiest Soccer Team" 2016 has already been decided. There will be no more entries. The Tampa Bay Rowdies have won.
The Rowdies made a compilation video of times the referees have wronged them this season and it is seven minutes long. The video is titled "2016 Rowdies Officiating Deficiencies," which is just another way of saying "they're out to get us".
