Crystal Palace do little to deter Manchester United and Tottenham’s interest in Wilfried Zaha Posted: 07 Jan 2013 06:41 AM PST |
Video: French steward tries to catch pitch invader, gets tackled by hoardings Posted: 07 Jan 2013 04:01 AM PST Shades of Hot Fuzz here, with a French steward playing the part of Nick Frost. The footage comes from the Coupe de France match between Chauray v Lorient. The pitch invader is already on his back to the stands by the time anyone seems to notice him, so the steward is always playing catch-up. While [...] |
Posted: 07 Jan 2013 01:13 AM PST Being a cameraman at top level football can’t be easy given the pace of the game. But the situation isn’t helped by pesky so-and-so’s like Victor Moses who insist on jumping out of shot all the time. The cameraman at Chelsea vs Southampton’s FA Cup third round clash thought he was perfectly placed to capture [...] |
Posted: 07 Jan 2013 12:58 AM PST We tend to think of football as being a relatively recent phenomenon in the USA. Sure, there’s the latest incarnation of Major League Soccer, a league which only began in 1993 but which is now increasingly respected for its competitiveness and professionalism. The roots of the modern development phase were in the marketing exercise of [...] |
Luton devise a plan to help Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea to deal with crosses Posted: 07 Jan 2013 12:52 AM PST Ingenious. Got a keeper who’s a bit dubious underneath the high ball? Simply place a sign saying ‘CLAIMS SPECIALISTS’ behind his goal facing the opposition strikers for the entire match. They won’t even bother crossing the ball anymore knowing that the goalie would only claim it from the air like a specialist in any case. [...] |
Top 10 conclusions: FA Cup third round weekend Posted: 07 Jan 2013 12:39 AM PST 1. Luis Suarez: controversy seeks him out like a ball to an outstretched hand. 2. FA Cup third weekend was a great advert for the January transfer window. With Demba Ba and Daniel Sturridge both on target on their debuts, perhaps it’s not such a bad time to splash your cash. 3. Hastings striker Bradley [...] |
Boooo! Luis Suarez cheats to score against non-league Mansfield Town Posted: 06 Jan 2013 09:36 AM PST He’s at it again! Not content with handling the ball on the line in the World Cup against Ghana and then celebrating when the penalty was missed, biting the ear of an opponent when at Ajax and getting involved in a race row with Patrice Evra, Luis Suarez has struck again. His Liverpool side brushed [...] |
GIF It: Is Craig Gardner’s bullet effort goal of the round in the FA Cup? Posted: 06 Jan 2013 08:53 AM PST Sunderland’s trip to the Reebok Stadium could best be described using the cliche of ‘a game of two halves’. Sunderland were poor during the first half and the Championship side deservedly led at the break. It was a lead they doubled when Keith Andrews headed home but, after Connor Wickham had pulled one back for [...] |
Video evidence that Joe Hart takes a mean free kick Posted: 06 Jan 2013 08:35 AM PST England do not struggle for free kick takers, with Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard, Walcott and Milner fancying their chances whenever a set piece becomes available. However, perhaps it is time for a little re-think, because the national team may have their own version of Jose Chilavert or Rogerio Ceni. The above video was taken this week [...] |
Manchester United fan annoys his wife with goal celebration Posted: 06 Jan 2013 08:18 AM PST This. Is. Beautiful. You may think that the magic of the FA Cup has been lost recently, possibly since Manchester United opted out of the tournament in 1999. Managers picking understrength sides don’t help, but videos such as these perhaps show that a touch of that ol’ magic remains. The video has gone viral, which [...] |
