"Football is obviously broken," said Barcelona midfielder, and defender of all that is right, Xavi. "When the team that just scores the most goals is ruled the winner over a team that holds the ball for the vast majority of the match only because the rules say so, something is very wrong. And it is time we correct that wrong. Because Cesc is suffering."

Piety begat hypocrisy. Just because this is the first major club or international trophy that douche hasn't won since like 2007 doesn't mean all of a sudden the sport is dead. It's a fluke, an outlier and he should just go get ready for the Euro's.

Saw this on Grantland or FSC, can't remember. I still can't believe it's real. I don't know how he put so much power/spin on an off-balance half-volley.
In hockey, I'd say sick mitts, top-shelf snipe and celly... can you give me the terminology here so I can be cool? I want to be cool.

That would be an outside-foot curler into the far-post upper-90 or simply, a GOLAZO. Or maybe even a GOLAZO-AZO-AZO.
Freddy Montero did a nasty piece of business last night too. Little far-post, upper-90 from distance action vs the Galaxy.

The premier league is really good at controlling content.
Here's a link to a video that I can't embed and will force you to watch a 20 second ad.
