Mean, mean goalkeeper denies goal to a little birthday boy

If you think Emiliano Martinez is the most despicable goalkeeper out there, just wait to meet Zsombor Senkó, the man between the sticks for Hungarian second-division side DVTK. He's being rightly booed worldwide after denying a goal and crushing the dreams of a seven-year-old boy on his birthday!

Boooo! And another boooo!

Stoppage time record? Under a downpour, Bolivian league game goes until the 133rd minute

Stoppage time in soccer is getting out of control. At the World Cup in Qatar, we saw how the customary three to five added minutes went right to the 10+ zone, while FIFA — through the International Football Association Board (IFAB) — recently suggested leagues worldwide follow suit as a way to "increase the net playing time and reduce time-wasting."

Ronaldo receives hilarious yellow card during rough night

Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr beat Abha 3-1 in the King's Cup on Tuesday but it was a disappointing night for the Portuguese forward, who failed to score, received a yellow card and was substituted for the first time since his move to Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo failed to score for the third consecutive game and is yet to open his account at Al-Nassr stadium.

¡Maldito VAR! Le anulan un golazo a Orbelín Pineda y el AEK pierde el liderato en Grecia

El AEK Atenas de Orbelín Pineda se jugaba un partido crucial de la liga griega, al recibir este domingo al Olympiacos. Los blanquiamarillos entraban al campo del Opap Arena con la idea de mantenerse como líderes del torneo, defendiendo el punto de ventaja que tenían sobre el Panathinaikos.

Sin embargo, el equipo del mexicano no terminó por aparecer. La Union terminó siendo derrotada por los rojiblancos, perdiendo y cediendo el liderato de la Superliga de Grecia.

The future of U.S. soccer? 6-team Minnesota Super Cup is the start of something fun

This summer, Minnesota is bringing together six different clubs from four different leagues to determine which shines brightest in the North Star State. Although in its inaugural infancy, this is a great concept that'll only get better with time — other states should follow suit. 

There are and have been different variations of Minnesota's Super Cup, but this competition promises head-to-head action with a tournament structure similar to the World Cup. 

Tatiana Flores marca su primer gol profesional y le da triunfo de oro al Real Oviedo Femenino

El Real Oviedo Femenino no pierde las esperanzas de evitar el descenso en la Primera Federación (segunda categoría de España) y menos luego de la tónica remontada que lograron ante el CD Juan Grande, en la cual la mexicana Tatiana Flores resultó siendo fundamental, luego de convertir su primer gol como futbolista profesional.

Flores, seleccionada Sub-20 del Tri y actualmente a préstamo en el Oviedo desde las academias del Chelsea, ingresó de cambio en la segunda parte y le bastaron cinco minutos para demostrar que su oportunismo puede ser vital en el objetivo de la salvación.

No lie, this has to be one of the greatest assists of all time

For the game's great distributors of the ball, there's unfortunately no assist equivalent of the Puskás Award. But maybe we'd do well to highlight the year's best assist with the Pelé-to-Carlos Alberto Memorial Trophy or something. Basically I just think that Giannis Konstantelias needs some form of recognition for what he accomplished in PAOK Thessaloniki's recent Super League victory over AEK Athens. 

Czech Republic international Jakub Jankto comes out as gay

Czech Republic international Jakub Jankto announced on Monday that he is gay, saying he wants to live his life “in freedom.”

Jankto, who plays for Sparta Prague on loan from LaLiga side Getafe, made his international debut in 2017.

The 27-year-old, who has 45 caps, is the highest profile current male footballer to publicly come out as gay.

Cristiano Ronaldo fails to score on hugely anticipated debut

RIYADH - Anderson Talisca earned Al Nassr a 1-0 home win over Al Ettifaq on Sunday, but the fans that turned up to Mrsool Park in droves to see Cristiano Ronaldo in action were left disappointed after he was unable to mark his Saudi Pro league debut with a goal.

Ronaldo signed a 2-1/2 year deal with Al Nassr last month, reported to be worth over $216.28 million, but has had to wait to play because of a two-match ban by England's FA for knocking a phone out of a fan's hand in April.

It's official: Cristiano Ronaldo signs with Saudi club Al-Nassr
