Ezequiel Lavezzi: Another Adorable Argie
By: Lotte Cox |Generally, some sort of introduction goes here, but it’s Lavezzi, and it’s hard to be articulate around him. So, to sum up: Napoli, Argentina, Olympic gold medalist. Very nearly too cute for words.
See what I mean?
Who Knew Santa Was So Damn Cute?
By: Amanda Leerat |Merry belated Christmas, ladies! (And gents. We don’t judge.) Once again we bring you the utterly adorable Sergio “Kun” Aguero of Atletico Madrid. This time dressed as Santa Claus. The boy with the smile that can make us forget the anemic “Ho ho hos.”
Lucky Giannina Maradona (yes, daughter [...]
Happy Boca Boy
By: Lotte Cox |Despite losing their last match, Boca Juniors won a crazy, three-legged playoff to take the Apertura title last week, something which made a lot of people, including the adorable Sebastian Battaglia, very happy indeed.
Four more of gleeful Battaglia under the jump.
We Love Cleats

Unless you’ve been under a (lovely, media frenzy-damping) rock for the past month or two, you’re well aware that David Beckham is joining AC Milan on loan for a few months starting, well, now. Whether we think this is happening purely for footballing reasons or because Milan [...]

Rafael Nadal Ought to Switch Sports
By: Ivanna Baller |Not that he isn’t an amazing tennis player, which he is, but he would be a very very welcome sight on the football pitch as well. He was nice enough to give us a glimpse of that possibility in last Tuesday’s Friends of Iker vs. Friends of Rafa charity match.
My advice to Rafa? To stop [...]
Marco Boriello: Never Subtle
By: Lotte Cox |Generally in this situation I’d say something like “dumb as a box of hammers,” but since Milan striker Marco Boriello’s (ex) girlfriend recently cheated on him on national TV, I suppose he deserves a bit of mercy for a change.
