We showed you some of the goal celebrations by FC Stjarnan twice in recent weeks and they’ve done it again. Keep an eye on the one at 0:48 in this video. And after three attempts (including an earlier error on this post) we’ve finally got the correct spelling of the team’s name.
No doubt we can [...]
Seeing as we showed you two insane goals last night, it’s only right that we celebrate them appropriately. Luckily Iceland’s top league known as the Pepsi Division, or Úrvalsdeild, is here with this effort by Halidorr Ori and his team mates, most notably Johann Laxdal who really gets in on the part.
The goal gave Starjman [...]
The Spanish Under 19 Football team has taken the internet by storm with these two remarkable efforts. The first is a penalty where the kicker, Calvente, essentially hits it with his stride.
Not happy with just one wonder goal dominating the web, Spain followed it up with this audacious set-piece against England.
During the excitement over the climax of the World Cup, a far more significant event in World football was largely overlooked: the full managerial debut of one Park Ji-Sung, unarguably Korea’s greatest player at the moment, and arguably their greatest manager of the future, too.

In the first of what will hopefully be a series of weekend round-up pieces I break down some of the big stories from the weekend’s sport and look ahead to upcoming action.
Unique incident shouldn’t sour a tournament
Luis Suarez isn’t a popular man outside of Uruguay following handball on the line on Friday night against Ghana. [...]
Our man in Seoul, Henry Bridge, reports on the local reaction to Korea’s exit from the World Cup.
With all the fuss over England, you could be forgiven for thinking they were the only team to be knocked out of the World Cup last weekend. But sadly they weren’t. Korea, amongst others, took their leave of [...]
Living in Mexico is dangerous, my friends advised. My mind might have drifted back to that one afternoon when, out running an errand, I heard a sudden cry as people started running urgently past me. But I know that cry. Every football fan knows it – dozens of people had just seen their team score. [...]
Continuing his series from South Korea, Henry Bridge tells us how the locals in Seoul enjoyed the opening games of the World Cup including that historic win over Greece.
Amidst all the complaints about a disappointing start to this World Cup (which I don’t agree with, by the way) someone pointed out that, in our lifetime, [...]
