Welcome back to another edition of Trending, our (mostly) weekly roundup of happenings on the WORLD WIDE WEB*.
Neymar on Kimmel
The Brazilian produced this scary good trick shot on the popular late night TV chat show…
City Sign GK
Top marks to our brothers and sisters in Manchester who acknowledged the long wait fans endured in the announcing of new goalkeeper, Ederson.
Using Faceapp, Man City’s stars were given the Ark of the Covenant treatment as the player was finally announced.
Announce Mbappe
To adapt (butcher?) a popular parlance of our times, “you come at the English language Bundesliga Twitter account, you best not miss.”
Tommy’s New Look
Tommy McNamara may have upset followers of his growing cult fanbase with his freshly shorn locks but it sounds like his chop went down well with teammates judging by the noises emanating from the locker room last weekend…
Soccer for All
When an eight-year old girl was disqualified from a soccer game for “looking like a boy”, legendary USWNT legend Mia Hamm and tennis hero Billie Jean King replied in brilliant style.
The FIFA Womens World Cup account also chimed in beautifully…
… and so too did the Chicago Red Stars.
Mandzukic Golazo
Apparently the Juventus striker shouted “one chance” as he celebrated this ridiculous strike in the UEFA Champions League final which, let's be honest, only makes it better.
Revs Pride
Pride Day is coming up on June 17 and it promises to be a special celebration of inclusivity when Seattle Sounders come to town. The Revs got started earlier in the month with this amazing tifo.
Starting ‘em Young…
This is depressing for anyone born on the wrong side of the turn of the millennium…
Last weekend, Jesus Ferreira became the second youngest goalscorer in MLS history at the age of 16 years and 161 days. The first? Freddy Adu.
That's all for this week... join us for more fun and games next week.
* Does anyone still call it the WORLD WIDE WEB?
