At the end of Hull City's nil-nil game against Liverpool Sunday, supporters ran on to the pitch but unfortunately there were no stewards to escort the players off the field. As a result, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard was encircled by supporters and demonstrated his frustration by pushing one teen away (see above video). Hat tip: […]

While the first forty-five minutes on Sunday were not kind to Manchester United in their hopes of winning the title, one thing was completely unexpected… If you were watching the game on Fox Soccer Plus, Manchester United’s game hadn’t even kicked off before Chelsea took a 1-0 lead thanks to the strike of Anelka. That’s […]

Despite their loss to Tottenham earlier in the week, Manchester City fans should still have plenty to feel good about going into the summer.

La Liga leaders Barcelona escaped with a 3-2 win from Sevilla after what appeared to be a rout at one point turned into a nerve-wracking end to an entertaining match.

This was the first time that Red Bulls head coach Hans Backe would take a shellacking in Major League Soccer. This would be the first time the score would be lopsided against him. Who does he have to thank for this mess? It would be Luke Sassano as he got a straight red card on […]

Chad Barrett unleashed a force which is a sportsblogger's (writer's) dream today. Not only did he produce 2 goals against the Chicago Fire, he produced instant corny material to be used in titles for articles. On a more serious note, the performance put on by Toronto FC today was a combination of luck, hard work […]

As reports continue to surface that Gareth Barry may not be fully fit in time for the World Cup, Owen Hargreaves chances of boarding the plane with the rest of the England squad for South Africa have apparently increased.

The definitive book of the 1990 World Cup was All Played Out, the magnificent work by author Pete Davies who beautifully captured the spirit of the tournament and summed up the magical journey that England undertook against all odds and how they tragically fell at the last hurdle on the dreaded penalty kicks. But the […]
