Israeli Soccer Team’s Trick Play Catches Goalie Off-Guard (Video)
Those Israelis, always strategizing. Here we see a trick play on a free kick that actually doesn’t seem to confuse too many people but the opposing goalie, but I suppose if you can kick over the wall to begin with, that’s really the only person you need to confuse.

Footballer Zokora Metes Out Justice One Crotch-Kick At A Time (Video)
Can we talk Turkish soccer for a minute? Perfect.

Emre was suspended for two games for the offense, but Zakora apparently didn’t [...]

21 Hilarious Soccer Dives (GIFs)
I love soccer. Always have. That’s why I wish the old European dudes who oversee the world’s most popular sport would make it easier for me to defend “the beautiful game” to the haters here in North America by coming down hard on dives. You see, it’s hard to make a case for the game [...]
