Bayern Munich have had the Bundesliga title sewn up for months and have taken another huge step towards a historic treble thanks to a 4-0 victory over Barcelona. The German side took the lead against the Spanish giants in their Champions League semi-final first leg in the 25th minute at the Allianz Arena. Thomas Muller nodded […]

Gif of the day: Robin Van Persie’s cracking volley to secure the title
You know the story. Your star striker’s being banging them in left, right and centre and then goes all Emile Heskey-like and doesn’t score for 10 games. But Robin Van Persie’s middle goal in his hat-trick against Aston Villa on Monday night justified his £23m transfer price and secured his first Premier League winners medal. […]
Gif of the day: How Spurs gif-ted the Premier League title to Manchester United
It all seemed too easy in the end. Spurs go a goal down after five minutes thanks to Samir Nasri’s strike – and some shocking defending. Arsenal fans start to count their chickens and Manchester United supporters get that ‘squeaky bum’ feeling ahead of Monday night’s game with Aston Villa. But three goals in seven […]
Gif of the day: Nasri punishes careless Spurs defence
You’ve lost four on the bounce at home against the reigning Premier League champions Manchester City. You’ve seen your nearest – and fierecest - rivals Arsenal struggle all season and then hit form at just the right time to waltz into the Premier League’s top four. You’ve had a 10-day break to recharge your batteries. So […]
GIF: A comedy goalkeeping howler to brighten up your Monday
Stayed up too late watching men in silly pants fight it out over a jacket so garish even Ian Poulter doesn’t apparently want one? Yes, it’s Monday morning and we’re all a bit narky so what we need is an example of someone making a complete tool of themselves to make ourselves feel a little […]
Hi-larious GIF: Goalkeeper lets in the worst shot in history
From the hotpot of comedy GIFs that’s otherwise known as the Brazilian Cup served up a treat last night thanks to one of the most amusing goalkeeping howlers you’re likely to see this side of whatever David James’s new Icelandic team is. Having been teed up nicely by his team-mate, Catalano player, Danilo, rather got […]
Goal of the season GIF: Aston Villa might still win something this year
When your team is struggling at the bottom of the table, desperate for points, commentators, managers and pundits tend to say any goal will do. A deflected, scuffed shot from the edge of the box. A goalkeeping howler from the opposition. A 14-man goal-mouth scramble where the ball pings in off the arse of your […]
GIF: A must see goalkeeping howler
What better way to start Happy Stuffing Your Face With Chocolate Day than with this fantastic goalkeeping howler from Ecuador? I can’t think of any, but that’s because I love GIFs and goalkeeping howlers almost as much as the on-set of diabetes. The guy’s name is Christian Arana and he plays for Emelec. He gifted […]
GIF: Andy Carroll scores a cracker. No, this is not an early April Fools
Andy Carroll scored two goals for West Ham today. Yes, that’s the Andy Carroll Liverpool spent £35 million on and then decided to let go out on loan to Upton Park for the season, even though it meant having about one and a quarter strikers for the entire season. If you saw much of his […]
Youss-GIF Mulumbu: Baggies midfielder earns himself a comedy red card
If you only watch one GIF of a comedy sending off today, make sure it’s this one. With West Brom losing 3-1 to West Ham, Youssuf Mulumbu did the Premier League equivalent of picking up the ball and storming off – which in this case was picking up the ball and smashing it into Gary […]
GIF: Here’s the Gareth Bale goal the MOTD team will be drooling about later
Yeah, Gareth Bale – he’s pretty good. He scored a tidy little goal against Swansea earlier. It’s probably not good enough a goal to wet yourself about with excitement, but that won’t stop the Match of the Day pundits.
GIF: Eye ain’t done nothing
Eye-gouging … GRRRR! It’s the scourge of modern rugby. But wait, that’s not 30 men sticking their heads between each others legs, that’s football – the one where they get paid loads of money for prancing around theatrically. This happened in the Saudi Premier League the other day. We have no idea, but for some […]
GIF: Everybody is starting to strongly dislike Chris
Chris Ashton is just one of those players people just love to hate. Or just hate – depending on whether or not you’re a fully paid up member of the Sweet Chariot or you’ve ever been on the end on one of his suspect tackles. If he’s not swallow-diving, getting punched in the face or […]
Gif of the day: Cheer up Arsene – the Premier League is back next weekend
Even Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is distracted. It’s 4pm on a Sunday afternoon and there’s no Premier League footie on the box. Damn these international weekends – unless you’re an England fan and are bound to qualify because your group is a gimme. But for the Republic of Ireland (although a win over Austria on Tuesday […]
Gif of the day: Snow joke as Costa Ricans try to take a free-kick
With much of Britain in the grip of the arctic spring spare a thought for the Costa Rican players in Friday night’s World Cup qualifier against the USA in Denver. Freak blizzard conditions made taking a free kick a challenge as the visitors put in the sort of moves normally used to impress the Laydeeez […]
