Goal 90

Okay, it might seem a little unusual that a fast food franchise is in a legal battle with one of the best football players in the world, but that is the reality right now. You may be wondering what Mbappe could have done to incur the wrath of Alain Beral, the vice president of KFC France.

Well, we have it all broken down in this episode. Come along if you want to find out why KFC is filing a lawsuit against Kylian Mbappe.

Many decades ago, the way football used to be was: a player puts the ball in the back of the net, turns, and quickly starts running towards the centre of the pitch for kickoff. The best you can get is a couple of hands in the air, a couple of jumps, and it’s back to it.  

There was none of these running to a corner of the pitch or to a camera for some extravagant displays.   

So, the question now is; how did we go from that to this? How did we go from just modest expressions of joy after scoring to routine celebrations, some even now having names and soundtracks? How did goal celebrations become such a big thing in football?

The Story Of How Argentinian Staff Sedated A Brazilian Player In The 1990 FIFA World Cup  Brazil vs Argentina is an age-old rivalry that has almost never failed to entertain. There may be favorites going into different games depending on form at the time, but that fixture has proven to really be no respecter of favorites. The Superclasico de las Americas, as it is often called, always lives up to expectation whenever and wherever it is played.  And in the 1990 World Cup, boy did it live up to expectation! The eventual score may have been just 1-nil, but that game was one of the most entertaining games in that entire World Cup tournament. But more than entertaining, it was controversial. Oh, very controversial.

The 2022 World Cup is now only a couple of months away and the world is getting ready for the big showdown to kick off in the Middle East for the first time ever. But this year’s World Cup will not be kicking off without controversy.

For years now, there have been scandals associated with the World Cup in Qatar. Players have protested and some major parties have even said that they will be boycotting this year’s tournament. So, what are these scandals that have caused this much uproar? Let’s find out.

Here are the scandals behind Qatar World Cup 2022:

Federico Valverde has become such a key player for Real Madrid in recent years. And it's not just because of his ability or his versatility. It's also about how much effort he's always willing to put in during games. But of course, you already knew those. So now, how about finding out about other things you don't know? Well, that's why we're here. In this video, we would be telling you some of these things. So sit back and enjoy as we bring to you 10 things you didn't know about Federico Valverde.

Lionel Messi has one of the most insane collections of jerseys we have ever seen from a football player. The Argentina national team captain has been playing professional football for 2 decades now, and so has had the opportunity to go up against great players from different generations. 

Everybody who plays against Messi always wants to take memorabilia with them, so they often ask for his jersey, and he almost always obliges. But like he once said, he would always prioritize his countrymen. So, if there’s an Argentine on the pitch that day, that’s most likely the person going home with Messi’s jersey.

No wonder he has jerseys of Di Maria, Aguero, Milito, Lavezzi, and Lanzini in his collection.

And what would interest you is that, after Messi exchanges those jerseys, he doesn’t just throw them away or dump them somewhere and forget about them, he stores them up. Jerseys of legends, youngsters, rivals, teammates, GOATs, and even players you never knew of or have forgotten about, are all in his collection.

Erling Haaland is surely the most in-form player at the moment in the Premier League, and maybe even in the world. When his transfer to Manchester City was completed, many people actually thought the man would flop because of the pressure and intensity of the premier league. Hehe, pretty weird, right? Well since he arrived at the club, he has pretty much taken those speculations and tossed them into the trash. Really. The man already has like 10 goals in the Premier league. He even scored a few more on his champions league debut. He is literally a goal machine and has always been, even as a teenager.  

But what really makes Haaland so good? Why does he score this many goals everywhere he goes? Well lucky for you, that's something we would be answering in this video. So sit back and relax as we bring to you a few reasons why Erling Haaland scores loads of goals. And we do hope you enjoy it.

In the early minutes of that game against Olympiacos, Messi was seen bending over and taking something out of a compartment of his socks. He then quickly threw that thing in his mouth and chewed on it. That thing turned out to be a pill which made eyebrows all around the world go up.

Football fans are not oblivious to the doping problem that has plagued the sport in the past, so it was not very surprising that people reacted that way to seeing a player take a pill during a match.  But then, think about it, even if Messi was doping, don’t you think he’d rather do it in secret? 

I mean, why would he come to the pitch where he knows that millions of eyes all around the world are on him to take a banned substance?  Anyway, a question still needs to be answered; what then were those pills Messi took and why did he take them in the middle of a Champions League game?  So, reports say that that was a glucose tablet. 

Now, you might then ask why he didn’t just take the pill in the locker room before coming out for the match, but that’s because, according to Ricard Torquemada, the first 15 minutes of physical exertion is the period when the muscles are usually most receptive.  Now, another very important question is; why did Messi have to take those pills in the first place? Is the GOAT okay?

The entire world of sports is dominated by superstitions. You’ll be surprised how many of your favorite football stars are superstitious. Anyway, today, we will be focusing on Barcelona’s latest addition to attack, Robert Lewandowski, and how his superstitions happen to benefit him a lot.
