Can Resurgent Ganso Play Important Role in Brazil Future?

The rise and fall of Ganso had been one of the most intriguing storylines in Brazilian football over the past few years. An elegant No. 10 of undoubted technical quality, his dramatic loss of form and subsequent sale from Santos to Sao Paulo came as a major shock given his early rapid rise to the top of the domestic game. For so long it had been a case of Neymar and Ganso as a double act, with the... 

FedEx Cup Standings 2014: Updated Points Ranking and Playoff Outlook

As the FedEx Cup playoffs get closer and closer to the midway point, every round grows in importance. Hunter Mahan is currently the man to beat.

The biggest road block is the congestion formed by all four tournaments... 

Picking 5 Fantasy Venues for Formula 1 Races

The Formula One calendar is never stable, with races added and subtracted nearly every season. This year, for example, instead of India and South Korea, the traveling circus returned to Austria for the first time in 10 years and will make its debut in Russia in October.

Grading Every Club Entering Aviva Premiership Season

After a long summer of waiting, the 2014-15 Aviva Premiership campaign gets underway in little more than a week. As ever, we have a bounty of pre-season questions in need of answers.

5 Biggest Concerns for Argentina Coach Daniel Hourcade in Rugby Championship

Argentina find themselves in familiar territory after two games of the Rugby Championship: bottom of the table, played two, lost two. But that doesn’t tell half the story. The Pumas came agonisingly close in both Tests against South Africa to securing their first tournament victory. In particular, their performance in Salta last weekend deserved more than to have the win snatched away at the...

Mexico is set to face Chile and Bolivia next month and Miguel Herrera has already picked six footballers who play abroad, including Erick Torres over Javier Hernandez. Is this the right call?

Slowly but surely, the Spain team that dominated world football between 2008 and 2012 is being disassembled—the dismantler in this instance not a manager, but the effects of time. In 2011, it was veteran left-back Joan Capdevila retiring from international duty; in February 2013, stalwart defender Carles Puyol played his final match for La Roja. Striker David Villa was given a send-off against...
