It’s An Absolute Privilege Watching Lionel Messi’s Top 10 Hits From Outside The Box

In July of 2014, FiveThirtyEight published an article entitled “Lionel Messi Is Impossible” which attempted to evaluate Messi’s goal-scoring abilities through the use of statistics and data.

One of the most ridiculous findings from all the number crunching was how much better Messi was than everybody else at shooting from distance. In fact, Messi’s efficiency from outside the box was almost as good as most other players inside of it.

Adama Diomandé's Goal Was Absurd And Awesome. Absurdly Awesome We Will Call It

"Hully" s**t what a goal!! Adama Diomandé sure made Hull's first goal back in the Premier League a spalsh. The hosts surged to a 1-0 lead with just moments left before the half time whistle after Kasper Schmeichel made one great save but could not contain the acrobatic bicycle kick from the man in gold and black. Leicester did not look like the unbelievable team they were last year but hey cut them some slack, lots of pressure to take on Hull in their first match up.

This Goal Proves Lionel Messi And Luis Suarez Are Building A Telepathic Understanding

This is 100 percent, absolutely, undeniably intentional from Lionel Messi. Even if it had been a mis-hit, this would’ve been a world-class goal from Barcelona. As it stands, this bicycle assist from Messi to Luis Suarez is one of the most absurd team goals you’ll ever witness.

Andres Iniesta’s pass over the U.C. Sampdoria defense is perfectly timed — it finds Messi streaming through totally unmarked. But it’s what happens next that’s simply unreal. You can’t create team goals like this in EA Sports’ FIFA, only the real version of Barca can pull off magic like this.

USWNT Barely Survive Late Show From Colombia To Top Group G

The USWNT drew 2-2 against Colombia to top Group G in Manaus on Tuesday. Goals from Crystal Dunn and Mallory Pugh for the U.S. were cancelled out by two free kicks from Maria Catalina Usme, one of which was the result of an error by U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo.

Lamela Is Pretty Good At Soccer

LAMELA! OH THAT IS BRILLIANT!! And brilliant it was. A gentle yet powerful left footed curler added to the beating as Tottenham demolished Inter Milan. Look for Lamela to assist Harry Kane in this season for Tottenham as they attempt to snatch the title that they couldn't quite grab last year. A 6-1 beating of Inter Milan was another step for Tottenham as they look to get things started the right way on August 13th against Everton at Goodison Park. This second goal for Tottenham was a sumptuous finish courtesy of Erik Lamela. Fantastic finish and placement.
