  With winter fast approaching, there's no shortage of soccer on TV these days, but Friday marks another notable event on the soccer calendar: the worldwide release of FIFA 21, the latest iteration of the blockbuster video game franchise from EA Sports. How does it play, what's new this year and how do the player ratings stack up? We've got all that, and a word from the game's new lead commentator, coveredA much smoother, faster game Real-life soccer is chaotic and fluid, but previous versions of the FIFA game have felt at times inescapably blocky and slow-motion by comparison. Tackles would be chunky collisions between finely sculpted pixels, passes would skid and soar around the pitch, though never too far from your intended target. Headers would scoff in the face of physics This year's game feels like a massive upgrade when it comes to capturing the silken ebb and flow of the sport. Tackles come with consequences; limbs and player momentum are much more touchy an

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said it was his "worst day ever" as a manager. Jose Mourinho left Old Trafford with the satisfaction of a man who had just humiliated both his old employer and the man chosen to replace him. When Manchester United lose 6-1 at home -- let alone against a side that were playing their fourth game in eight days -- the focus will inevitably be on them, but it's worth giving credit to Spurs and their manager, too.Tottenham didn't just capitalise on errors, either; they were clin

Man United and Liverpool's day of woe: How the internet reacted

  An absolutely riotous day of Premier League thrills and spills saw both Manchester United and Liverpool fall to humiliating and incredibly heavy defeats, with United going down 6-1 against Tottenham and Liverpool, even more improbably, getting thumped 7-2 by Aston Villa. That's right: Two clubs with a whopping 39 English top-flight titles between them conspired to concede a total of 13 goals between them! What a day. Where to begin? How about kickoff at OId Trafford, where things actually got off to a decent start for United when they won their now customary penalty with just 30 seconds played. Bruno Fernandes duly converted in similarly routine fashion and all seemed well, However, things began to turn sour for the hosts just minutes later, signalling the start of a remarkable few hours. This is the story of a magnificent, mind-boggling day. Having dusted themselves off, Jose Mourinho's Tottenham responded with a bewildering barrage of six unanswered goals, starting when Tan

UEFA will also announce the award winners for the 2019-20 season in a ceremony that has been scaled back due to the coronavirus pandemic.  Champions League holders Bayern Munich are top seeded, along with Europa League winners Sevilla FC. They are joined in Pot 1 by the champions of the top six leagues, namely Real Madrid, Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Zenit St Petersburg.
