It's kinda mad that the Ligue 2 Ajaccio is the bigger, more well known one.

Paris FC are currently the only team in France's Ligue 2 that are unbeaten, yet they are in the bottom half of the table...

Dijon really cut the mustard in this league

Ref pulls a shooter out during a game. These Brazilians are so far ahead of the curve, first the bicycle kick, then the disappearing spray, now this? I bet the FA will take forever to introduce this to our refs, typical.

I'm still amazed no one in Europe had ever heard of that.

A World Cup for legends will take place in Mexico at the start of 2017.

The tournament will be comprised of 12 teams: four from the Americas, six from Europe and one each from Africa and Asia.

The hosts will be coached by Mexico’s legendary and flamboyant goalkeeper, Jorge Campos.

“I want to see big players - Zinedine Zidane, David Beckham, Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos," said Campos.

“Everybody wants to see Diego Maradona but he can’t play. He’s too old.”

[Benji]

Maradona being old doesn't matter, his arm still works.

[Colly]

That sounds amazing.
