Despite missing Theo Walcott, Nicklas Bendtner, Carlos Vela, Denilson, Samir Nasri, Tomas Rosicky, Jack Wilshere and Fran Merida at one stage in the match, Arsenal put on show an amazing display away at Wolves and ... Click to continue reading...

Epic Women’s Soccer Fight

The Footie 07 November @ 05:43 PM EST

It's rare to see players fighting out on the field during a soccer match. In hockey it's almost expected, but in soccer it's almost unheard of. That's why this new video showing a Bringham Young University player elbowing, punching and pulling hair is making it's way around the internet like wildfire.

Superiority Through Sheer Class

Arsenal View From a Gooner 07 November @ 03:57 PM EST

Vintage Arsenal Goal

4-1 is may have been the final result but judging from the opening 20 minutes of the game, it would be rather hard to envisaged that scoreline. Credit to Wolves and McCarthy for their game plan as they came out firing on all cylinders and chose to take the game to us rather than just contend to defend.

Soccer Saturday

100 Percent Soccer 07 November @ 03:37 PM EST

With just over 24 hours to go until the Galaxy-Chivas USA Western Conference semifinal second leg (4:30 p.m. Sunday ESPN2) and the teams deadlocked at 2-2 halfway through what is essentially a 180 minute game (although, of course, it could go longer) here's press box colleague Luis Bueno on the pressure on Chivas USA.

Dilly Duka signs with MLS

Project 2010 07 November @ 03:10 PM EST

Soccer Insider reports that US U-20 starlet Dilly Duka has signed with MLS. Duka was exploring options in Europe, but has opted to enter the MLS draft this winter. A product of the Red Bulls academy, he has made it known that he hopes to end up in New Jersey. Seems likely, as Red Bull New York Red Bulls have the second overall pick.

Heurelho Gomes. Octopus, Messiah and Generally Nice Guy.

pavlyuchenko's vodka bottle 07 November @ 01:47 PM EST

'sorry? (...) yeah shut the **** up.'

That wasn't really what I was expecting to be honest. Despite notable absences from the Sunderland side, and to a certain extent a lack of bite in our midfield today's game was one that we won't be forgetting for a while. It's safe to say that it was somewhat of an aggressive affair with both sides putting boots where perhaps they shouldn't have been and this incision found its way into the general scheme of play.

How Did I Just Discover This?

Apparently Del Amitri did the theme song for Scotland's 1998 World Cup team. YouTube embedding has been disabled by their label (yeah, because you wouldn't want to let their millions of fans talk about it, right?), but you can watch it here (with a special guest appearance by Colin Hendry's mullet!

Gunning For Wolves

Arsenal View From a Gooner 07 November @ 05:36 AM EST

This is what happen last time we have Wolves in the EPL

Arsenal visit Molineux Stadium tonight and it's a good oppourtunity to continue the good run that we are currently going through. This is no walk in the park for Arsenal as both Fulham and Aston Villa have came and gone home with only a point.

Bent Will Score Against Us

pavlyuchenko's vodka bottle 06 November @ 09:24 PM EST

what do you want from me?

Well; in the press anyway. What he can say he will say and for the most part we're going to be looking worse for it. However, the way that Darren played in our system was all well and good; but lacked a certain 101 cutting edge that we now have with our striking collective.

Collegiate Soccer – Too Tough?

Pretty Tough Soccer 06 November @ 04:42 PM EST

Soccer can be a tough game and it's especially so in the Mountain West Conference. Footage of the conference semifinal game in Provo, Utah where BYU beat New Mexico 1-0 has been making the rounds and not for the right reasons.

Why is it that the only times women's sports make the nightly news is when they cross the line?

Heartbreaking end to the season

SoccerCoachingBlog.com - “Let’s talk soccer” 06 November @ 04:16 PM EST

What a game, what a night, what an occasion!

In front of a record crowd, our team ended their season in a heartbreaking way...it was suddenly all over.

We played the semi final of the conference tournament seeded #2 against the #3 seed. Previous encounters this season went to OT with us winning one and the other remaining a tie.

Soundoff: Nominate Your Favourite Football Films

The Offside 06 November @ 01:15 PM EST
Movies and soccer. Two things that traditionally don't mix well. In documentary form, maybe. But in scripted Hollywood form? No. For various reasons, it usually ends in either cheesy emotions, unconvincing action, or Robert Duvall's Scottish accent in A Shot at Glory. But not always. There are a handful of good football movies out there. Click to continue reading...

The Re-emergence of Raffaele Palladino

The Offside: Italy 06 November @ 12:56 PM EST

One of the players playing extremely well at the moment is Genoa fantasista Raffaele Palladino. Palladino has always been a player that could do things with the ball that others could only dream of doing, but he never had the consistency to show that talent at a high level.

Meet Elizabeth Lambert, the Roughest Soccer Player in the World

The Offside 06 November @ 10:45 AM EST
I've seen the above game described as a "catfight", but that absolutely does not do it justice. Bringham Young University vs New Mexico in the Women's Mountain West Conference college tournament last night was more like the roughest game of soccer ever captured on YouTube, and it featured the roughest display of defending I've ever [.
