Football around the world

Never seen this before from a keeper, taking the head games to the next level in penalties. This happen a couple weeks ago in Leagues Cup game Tigres vs Vancover.

So Mendy and Greenwood made their returns to football today.

Sad times.

My AFL Team Carlton, have come from no where to be (mid season 7 losses in a row to turn it around and win the next 10 in a row), tomorrow night, in the last 4 for a play off in the big dance next Saturday.

Haven't been in the Grand Final since 99 when we lost and before that 1995 when we won.

Wish me luck Team, my AFL Boys are going to play AWAY in the toughest road trip possible, for a place in the Grand Final.

I don't hold out much hope but anything can happen in a game of AFL.

Go you F***ing Boyssssss!!!

You think Shaolin Soccer is a fantasy movie, but I tell you Shaolin Soccer is a documentary.  You can also witness the use of the most advanced VAR at 6:55.

Enjoy.

Does anyone know what the hell has happened to Ajax?

Bottom of their league.

Had a scandal with Overmars and inappropriate behaviour towards female employees, Van Der Sar retired from the running of the club, no CL football so had sold heavily during summer.

Seems a culmination of things - just what I’ve got from a quick search. Wasn’t aware of their plight until now to be fair!

Thanks, I remember that now that you've said it, crazy fall all the same, they're in the EL, but they're really struggling in that too.

For a club that size it's mad, especially when you think of the pedigree of bringing young talent through the ranks.

Agreed it’s madness in comparison to the Ajax of old and pre 2022! Shame to see really, makes me kind of glad for how we’re run.

In the Brasileirao last night...

Relegation threatened Athletico vs Copa Liberatores chasing Cruzeiro - and with 1/2 seconds on the clock - the Cruzerio forward throws an elbow straight into the defender's neck - resulting in a red card...

Athletico comfortably win the game 3-0.


Still not looking good for Corinthians - who've spent most of the season in the bottom 4: www.flashscore.co.uk/football/brazil/serie-a-betano

Just saw teams in Liga MX have players using 3-digit numbers on their shirt. Wtf is that. Looks so weird.

The Final MatchDay of the 2024 Brasileirão - all 10 matches kick off tonight at 7pm (UK time)...



Will current leaders Botafogo put their 2023 title collapse behind them (https://apnews.com/article/botafogo-brazil-title-slump-a3b59605147e9fac9f2b872a38d85dc2) and secure the league title win this time around? (after also winning the Copa Libertadores this season)... or will 2nd placed Palmeiras pinch it on the last day?

Corinthians spent 30 matches of the season in the bottom 4 - before going on a late amazing run that saw them climb to 7th (and a CL qualification p'off spot)

At the other end of the table it looks like one of the bigger sides could well end up in the final relegation spot - Fluminense (2023 Copa Libertadores Champions), CAM (2024 Copa Libertadores Finalists) or Athletico (2022 Copa Libertadores Finalists), as well as RB Bragantino (a 'Red Bull' club)... are all in danger of being relegated to Serie B.
