Kevin De Bruyne didn’t have the greatest week. For starters he’s gone on record to say he hates the UEFA Nations League calling the tournament “glorified friendlies”, then he and Belgium got embarrassed at home in a 4-1 defeat to the Netherlands on Friday and to top it all off a De Bruyne nutmeg video has gone viral.
The number of players destroyed by Neymar's skills is too long to start counting. The Brazilian star is a devil with the ball at his feet, and being one-on-one against him is certainly a nightmare you don't want to live.
But despite his endless set of abilities, Neymar himself is not immune to other players' skills. And that's what we learned this week when freestyler Lisa Zimouche collected his soul after an epic nutmeg.
Si el balón es tu amigo y tienes habilidades inusuales dominándolo, quizás quieras saber que las clasificatorias nacionales para el Mundial de Fútbol Freestyle Red Bull están abiertas.
El torneo es probablemente el más importante de la categoría y en 2022 vivirá su final en Croacia.
La competencia se dividirá por género (hombres y mujeres) y tendrá fases nacionales y regionales antes de determinar a los finalistas de una disciplina que sueña con convertirse en deporte olímpico.
History will show that it was Rafael Leão's 56th-minute match-winner on the penultimate matchday of Serie A play that kept AC Milan on course for its first Scudetto since 2011, but years down the road, the lasting memory of the Rossoneri's vital 2-0 victory over Atalanta will certainly be Theo Hernández's own personal recreation of Diego Maradona's "Goal of the Century" in the 75th-minute.
After a nerve-wracking 4-3 victory over Tokyo Verdy, Albirex Niigata reached 29 points last weekend and became one of the three leaders in the J2 League, the Japanese second division.
Despite there still being two-thirds of the tournament ahead, fans are already excited about a possible promotion, and players can't hide their joy either. In fact, once the game ended, the squad celebrated the victory and the chemistry created around in a sui generis way: becoming a human bowling alley and portraying a perfect strike.
Wow! That was a roller coaster. Manchester City and Real Madrid gifted the world a nerve-wracking first semifinal in the Champions League. Yes, the English club got the win, but in the long list of highlights, it is impossible not to talk about Vinícius Jr.'s goal, a beautiful display of pace and skill. The best of the seven we witnessed Tuesday night.
The Brazilian winger scored in the 55th minute, in a sequence where he should have been fined for speeding.
You have probably already seen videos online of Alex Alcalá collecting Manchester United U17 players' souls. The 16-year-old Mexican kid was one of the biggest sensations in the last 2022 Generation adidas Cup, and we cannot stop watching his highlights.
In case you missed his talent, you don't need to be worried. Here it is:

MANCHESTER — Cristiano Ronaldo's 50th club career hat-trick and second Premier League treble of the season earned below-par Manchester United a 3-2 victory over Norwich City on Saturday.
With Tottenham Hotspur losing 1-0 at home to Brighton & Hove Albion earlier on Saturday, the door was open for United to close in on the Champions League qualification places with victory over bottom side Norwich and they just about took advantage.
After starting Thursday's Europa League draw against Eintracht Frankfurt, Xavi used a match against 19th-place Levante to give 19-year-old Pedri and 17-year-old Gavi a rest. That plan lasted less than an hour at the Ciutat de València after Levante took a 52nd-minute lead from the spot through José Morales.
Incredibly, Levante could've gone 2-0 up in the 56th when the home side was awarded another penalty, but Marc-André ter Stegen saved Roger Martí's effort and Xavi immediately replaced Frenkie de Jong with Gavi and Nico González with Pedri.
Hace unos días, los buenos amigos de Goal crearon un gráfico para sus redes sociales intentando encender el debate sobre el movimiento más icónico en el fútbol. En la lista incluyeron el giro de Cruyff, el elástico de Ronaldinho, las fintas de Lionel Messi y Cristiano Ronaldo, así como la exquisita trivela de Ricardo Quaresma, entre otros.
Who's got the best signature move? ✍️ pic.twitter.com/VxSiCJfv8N
