A fifth-tier game in Elblag, Poland, had an unexpected visitor from the sky. In the 65th minute of a Polish soccer game, a man with a parachute gracefully landed on the field to the surprise of everyone.
Sunday night’s Concacaf Nations League final between the United States and Mexico was the craziest game I have ever seen. Period.
The game had everything on and off the field, including a fan parkouring off the Paramount+ set to evade security. The fact that a fan taking a plunge into the stands from the broadcast booth isn’t big news goes to show how nutty this Concacaf classic was.
RED ALERT! RED ALERT! SAN MARINO HAS SCORED! I REPEAT! SAN MARINO HAS SCORED!
The nation ranked 210 out of 210 in the FIFA Men’s rankings had one of its finest hours on Tuesday as it got the sphere in the net. This is a task that has proven most difficult for San Marino.
Sporting Kansas City scored three goals within 14 minutes in the second half to earn a 3-2 victory over the visiting Houston Dynamo.
The game was played in front of 20,086 frenzied fans in the first full-capacity match since March 2020.
In the 50th minute and trailing 1-0, Gadi Kinda drew a foul to set up a free kick. Gianluca Busio drove the ball from about 28 yards out, over the wall of defenders and off the side post into the goal.
GIANLUCA BUSIO!
There was nothing quite like a Saturday morning in 2009. I’d run downstairs to the family computer and be glued to the screen for hours watching soccer videos. Eleven years later these nostalgic soccer videos hit different.
We may not be able to turn back time, but these videos will make you feel like time has reversed. Perhaps it’s the horrible video quality, or maybe the feeling of childhood gives the sensation of going back in time.
TW: Rape
Tuesday’s Serbian Cup final between Red Star Belgrade and Partizan provided viewers with a lot more than they bargained for. The Belgrade derby offered taunting, a pathetic fight and a guy whipping out his genitals at the opposing goalkeeper.
How on Earth did the game get to that point? The tensions between the two sides flared up the day before when Partizan goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic had a bizarre quote during a press conference.
