FIFA World Cup Final Preview: Brazil 2014 produces moments to remember

Brazil 2014 will be remembered as one of the best FIFA World Cups in history, here we reflect on some of the most memorable moments.

Hosts humiliated by rampant Germany

Few could choose between Brazil and Germany ahead of their mouth-watering semi-final clash. Yet the European side flipped the narrative by producing a performance for the ages in a 7-1 drubbing of the hosts. A shell-shocked Brazil found themselves 5-0 down after just 29 minutes, with their opponents seemingly taking pity on the five-time champions thereafter. Few will forget the night Germany broke Brazilian hearts in their own backyard, even enjoying a standing ovation from

a bedazzled home crowd when the seventh goal went in.

Kadarius Toney Super Bowl 57 Prop Odds and Prediction: Toney Surpasses Low Receiving Yards Line

Much has been made of the Kansas City Chiefs’ banged-up and battered wide receiver room heading into Super Bowl 57. But after two weeks off, things may be looking up for the Chiefs in that department.

Kadarius Toney will suit up tonight despite suffering an ankle injury in the AFC Championship Game. He has not lived up to his potential at this early stage in his NFL career, but Toney is a lightning rod on the field with next-level speed. He could be an under-the-radar game-changer for the Chiefs, who are currently underdogs on the Super Bowl odds board. 

His inconsistent play to this point could provide us some value with one of his Super Bowl player props this evening. Check out my Super Bowl predictions for Toney below.

Vikings vs Packers Odds, Picks, and Predictions Week 8: How Low Can You Go at Lambeau?

The Minnesota Vikings head to Lambeau Field in Week 8 for a divisional battle against the Green Bay Packers. The Vikings are coming off a huge win on Monday Night Football against the 49ers and will take on a Packers side that is fresh off a road loss to a bad Broncos team.

NFL odds opened with the Packers as slim 1-point home faves but that line has flipped to favor the Vikes at -1 with the total listed at 43. Here are my best free NFL picks for Vikings vs. Packers on October 29.

The Minnesota Vikings are on the road on a short week and are prime for a letdown after an upset victory against the 49ers on Monday. That said, I still have a tough fading t…

IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE

Shortly before former Uefa secretary general Hans Bangerter commissioned the current incarnation of Big Cup, its designer Jürg Stadelman and his father went to his office and covered the floor with drawings of different trophies. “He made comments like ‘The Bulgarians would like the bottom of that’,” Stadelman would later recall. “‘The Spaniards would like this but the Italians would prefer that and the Germans would go for this.’ We put the design together like a jigsaw puzzle.” It remains unclear whether or not Stadelman specified that Bangerter insisted on making the mouth of the trophy wide enough so that one day, decades in the future, Lucas Hernandez might hit upo…

Euro 2012: Van Tiggelen blasts Van Persie

Former Holland defender Adri van Tiggelen has encouraged Oranje boss Bert van Marwijk to include Klaas-Jan Huntelaar in the starting XI for the next two group stage matches.

The inclusion of  Huntelaar would inevitably relegate Arsenal talisman Robin van Persie, who did little to nothing against Denmark in Holland s first match of Euro 2012, to the bench.

I guess it is about time that Klaas-Jan Huntelaar starts up front, I am kind of fed up with Robin van Persie, he told NUSport.

It is a fact he did an amazing job at Arsenal this season, but his performances have been heavily disappointing in the Netherlands national team.

Besides, we have two defensive midfielders who are hardly involved in attack. If Denmark benefited from that, Germ…

On This Day in 2016 – West Ham beat Manchester United in Upton Park farewell

West Ham came from behind to beat Manchester United in the final game to be played at Upton Park on this day in 2016.

Headers from Michail Antonio and Winston Reid secured a 3-2 victory for the Hammers as they bade farewell to their home of 112 years ahead of their move to the London Stadium.

Diafra Sakho had given the hosts the lead until Anthony Martial put United ahead with a second-half brace.

The occasion was marred before kick-off when bottles were thrown at the Manchester United coach as it made its way into the ground.

The Metropolitan Police confirmed a police officer and a member of the public were hurt, with the Football Association launching an investigation.

Kick-off was delayed by 45 minutes but West Ham were quickly out of the block…

2023 NFL Schedule: Teams With the Toughest and Easiest Starts to the Season

The NFL schedule is out and the oddsmakers have crunched the numbers for which teams have the best chance to begin the season undefeated — and conversely, which teams might take some time to find their first victory.
