Why Hulk Is Under Most Pressure for Brazil Following Win with Cameroon

Much focus of late has been on the continued selection of Paulinho in the Brazil midfield and, indeed, the Spurs man’s rotten form continued on Monday night as he was dragged off at half-time for eventual goalscorer Fernandinho. That debate, based on the evidence of recent weeks, should no longer be an issue. It is clear for all to see that a change must be made and Fernandinho‘s arrival... 

World Cup 2014: Can the Underdogs Upstage the Big Guns?

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary describes an “underdog” as “a person, team, etc. that is expected to lose a contest or battle” or as a “less powerful person or thing that struggles against a more powerful person or thing (such as a corporation).” And as with every World Cup, there are plenty of them on show in Brazil.  So far, there’s been a glut of goals—as... 

Mario Balotelli’s Brother Enoch Shares Throwback Photo of Italy Star as a Child

Mario Balotelli as a child is certainly an odd image to wrap your head around. The surly Italian striker is frequently the biggest and strongest player on the pitch, but his younger brother Enoch has taken to Instagram to remind us of a time when Super Mario was merely a lad.  While Mario is now 23, his inner child is still clearly going strong. At least that’s how we’re going to... 

Wimbledon 2014: Full TV and Live Stream Schedule for Day 2 at All England Club

Power Ranking England’s Squad on New Zealand Tour

Stuart Lancaster may glean a selection of positive lessons from England’s tour of New Zealand, but a 3-0 series defeat to the All Blacks will ultimately go down as a major disappointment. The Northern Hemisphere giants did take one win from their lesser-valued fixture against the Crusaders, but losses in Auckland, Dunedin and Hamilton mean that there’s no papering over the evident cracks...

Despite New Zealand Defeats, Neil Back Says ‘England Can Win the World Cup’

In the cut-throat world of international rugby, nations are ultimately judged on wins and losses. At face value, England’s three consecutive defeats in New Zealand—including a drubbing in the finale last Saturday—mark their tour as a failure. However, according to England rugby legend Neil Back they are an improved team in 2014 and the gap between them and the top-three nations is... 

Roger Federer Must Be Considered a Title Contender at 2014 Wimbledon

Roger Federer‘s six Wimbledon titles held little weight in oddsmakers’ minds entering the 2012 Wimbledon. Federer hadn’t won in nine straight Grand Slams, the longest drought of his career since pre-2003. In those nine Slams, he had only advanced to the final once. Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic had distanced themselves from him, winning five and four titles, respectively, over the... 

Wimbledon 2014: Viewing Info and Preview for Opening Rounds at All England Club

The 2014 Wimbledon at the All England Club is the personification of the current trends in the sport, where top dogs continue to underwhelm. With all due respect, look at the defending champions—Andy Murray and Marion Bartoli. That last spectacle was a wild one indeed, with Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Serena Williams bowing out no later than Round 4. This year, it is hard to imagine things... 

Wimbledon 2014: Americans with the Best Chance of Reaching Week 2

There’s no love for the USA. In the World Cup, the States were put into the Group of Death, as it was so affectionately called. And for Serena Williams? The No. 1 seed for The Fortnight (not just any of the 26 fortnights over the course of a given year, but The Fortnight. So pretentious. So British.)? No love here either. Williams is the best American talent playing today, but she’s going...
