Quite amazing look at the Gio Reyna goal
⚽️ Soccer isn’t a quick sport that many here in the USA are used to
It’s a chess match, moving the ball back and forth, sideline to sideline; waiting to find the right angle of attack
This video shows it perfectly. What many find boring, is actually beautiful to watch

Chaos in Prague as a premature pitch invasion leads to the derby between Slavia and Sparta being abandoned 😳
The home side, Slavia, had been 3-2 up in stoppage time and were seconds away from clinching the Czech title 🇨🇿
Exactly 25 years ago today, I scored my first — and only — professional goal.
Contrary to what I believed at the time, goalkeepers are not allowed to handle the ball in both penalty areas.
The goal was disallowed and I was sent off — still it earned me legendary status. 😉

It is truly a blessing to live in an era where we can witness greatness in sport from anywhere in the world. That was not always the case earlier in my life, and it makes moments like I just witnessed even more meaningful.
Watching Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals of the Australian Open just now was a powerful reminder of why he stands as the greatest tennis player the game has ever known. He is now pursuing his 25th major championship, an achievement that speaks not only to talent, but to discipline, resilience and an unwavering commitment to excellence. I only wish everyone could view such performances with both appreciation and understanding, recognising greatness with fairness and respect.
The Australian crowds were magnificent just as they always were for me, and Novak’s pursuit of what would be his 11th Australian Open title carries special significance. History shows that the very greatest champions often face adversity late in their careers, yet it is precisely this adversity that defines them.
Across all sports, true superstars share one defining trait: longevity. We have seen it time and again with Jack Nicklaus winning the Masters at 46, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan after this car accient, Tom Brady, Muhammad Ali, Michael Phelps, LeBron James and others. These athletes return to the summit not by chance, but because they possess something rare. Longevity, in my view, is one of the most underrated attributes in sport. Just as a great engine allows a BMW to endure, a great inner drive allows champions to last.
I was deeply moved watching Novak. His journey began under extraordinary hardship, growing up amid conflict surrounding his childhood. To rise from that environment to this level of global excellence is nothing short of remarkable. What he has achieved is admirable beyond words.
Novak now faces a monumental challenge in the final, but his legacy is already secure. Across all sports and all generations, only a handful of athletes possess what can only be described as “it.” That quality cannot be defined, measured or explained, but you know it when you see it.
Novak Djokovic has IT. GP

IMAGINE NOT LOVING FOOTBALL 🤯
Nicolás Barros Schelotto (son of Guillermo Barros Schelotto) scored an absolutely insane Olympic corner this weekend against Argentine league finalists Racing.
The angle of this video is insane. A Puskas contender, to say the least.

Esencial la lección que este entrenador inglés, Joshua Paul, imparte a los chavales de su equipo. Y no menos esencial para nosotros, adultos —sobre todo en una red tan hostil como es X—.
WREXHAM SCORE TWICE IN STOPPAGE TIME, BEAT QPR 3-2 AND CLIMB INTO THE CHAMPIONSHIP PLAYOFFS 😱
Ollie Rathbone wins it with a screamer. The kind of result that makes you believe four straight promotions, and playing in the Premier League, is possible 🐲
