    This might low-key be the craziest moment of the European season. First title in 66 years won in the 94th min and the team they beat is the team who would have won the title otherwise… insane

    An all-time great football moment. Toby Alderweireld joined hometown club Royal Antwerp last summer, as he always promised he would. Tonight, he has won them their first league title since 1957 with this incredible strike vs Genk in the 94th minute!

    22 people voted on the outcome of this decision. Of those 22, 15 are now either banned from FIFA for life, suspended, imprisoned or fighting extradition to the USA to face federal charges. Only, one still actually works for FIFA.

    🇦🇹 THE RED BULL ERA OF DOMINANCE IS OVER! Sturm Graz have won the Austrian Bundesliga for the first time since 2011 & become the first club other than Salzburg to win the double since 2006. Sturm's triumph ends Salzburg's unprecedented 10-year run of league titles since 2014!

    I tell you what I knew rugby was big in England but the viewing party here in Portsmouth has just blown me away.

    Hearing Rudi Garcia studied Arteta's tactics against Man City in the FA cup semis. Mikel Arteta is slowly emerging as one of the top managers on the game now. 💪

    It’s actually insane how in almost every Klassiker of the last decade BVB have ruined their title hopes by completely collapsing against Bayern in the most comically awful way… Then when it finally doesn’t matter they go ahead and beat them *at* the Allianz.

    Alemannia Aachen 1-0 Fortuna Köln Alemannia another step closer to the 3. Liga and professional football for the first time since 2012. 29,500 attendance in the regional fourth division likely higher than Leverkusen & red bull in the #Bundesliga today.

    Unbelievable. 16 out of 20 Premier league teams still refusing to pay their staff the reccomended ‘living wage’ (around 1 pound an hour more than minimum pay) yet they can all find an extra £250,000 EACH as thankyou gift for a man who earns 2.5 million pounds a year

    2017: Tony Adams imparts his special brand of footballing wisdom on a young Granada squad. 2020: Granada qualify for Europe for the first time ever, coincidence? I think not.
