Jonathan David scores again!

The #CanMNT striker has found his form in recent weeks and scores for Juventus to make it 2-0 vs Pafos.

Back to back UCL goals and up to four goals this season.

#USMNT Weston Mckennie scored the opener.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

My feature on Darko Rajakovic's communication style. There is a method to the ... enthusiasm.
Darko Rajaković is ‘direct, honest, transparent’ — and just what Raptors need

So we finally know the #CanMNT's 2026 World Cup group, which includes 🇨🇭, 🇶🇦 and the UEFA Playoff A winner

I dove into the numbers to see how Group B ranked among other groups, before looking at what to expect from 🇨🇦's 3 group stage opponents next summer

Infantino said this isn’t “a normal draw”

That was at least thing said on stage that was true

There were moments that approached propaganda, especially in the highly politicised interpretations to justify Trump’s Peace Prize - a debasing of football

I wrote about Infantino’s love of despots years ago but that peace prize is such a shameless example of what he is and what he wants to do with the sport
