Everyone‘s favourite manager had that wax honour bestowed upon him when the Museo de Cera recreated the lovable spark plug as a wax statue. And it’s naturally fantastic. “I am very happy and flattered—thank you very much for this deference...

Mexico’s women’s national team are gearing up for the upcoming Women’s World Cup in style. The Mexicans are set to unveil their new look that they’ll wear in this summer’s World Cup in Canada, and it’s quite good. Better, at least, than the surprising red kit the men’s side unveiled before the 2014 World Cup. Of course, any release on the...

Maria Sharapova is a woman of many talents, as evidenced by a video that has emerged from the Fed Cup. The Russian star is shown doing some keepy-uppies on the tennis court before the tournament, and she’s not half-bad, either. It’s hardly a new revelation with the world’s No. 2-ranked woman, as kicking a football around seems to be a favoured pastime of hers while on...

Ghana and Ivory Coast played to a 0-0 draw after extra time then went through a grueling 11-round shootout. It finished with the 11th kick-takers: the all-exciting goalkeeper vs. goalkeeper battle. Barry denied Ghanaian...

Landon Donovan is retired, but he apparently still can’t get any respect. The American international who was controversially left off of the United States’ World Cup squad (and poked some fun at himself in the process), is still finding recognition hard to come by. Retirement has taken him to a recreational league in a Wells Fargo commercial, and his two-word “nickname”...

Gabriel Zakuani didn’t appear to be too bent out of shape that he got hit by the cart that was supposed to help him. Storming back from a two-goal deficit in the second half to win 4-2 and make it to the semi-finals of the African Cup of Nations will have that kind of an effect. Zakuani was hurt during DR Congo’s comeback win over neighbours Congo and when his aid arrived in...

DR Congo goalkeeper Robert Kidiaba was particularly tickled at the comeback, as when Joel Kimwaki scored the third and winning goal in the 81st minute, he provided...
