A friend told me about Pique's new soccer league, and I have to say, I looked into it and became a huge fan. And I bet you will become a fan once you learn about it. I'm writing this to help bridge that gap.

I am here to discuss and rank what I believe to be the ten greatest hattricks ever. There are only two qualifiers I used: One, bangers only. The importance of the game matters some, but first and foremost is how good the goals were. Two, no hattricks that included a penalty make my list. We're talking about the best of...

It's hard to imagine that at this time last year, Liverpool was competing in 4 different competitions and at the doorstep of completing an unprecedented historic quadruple.

Enjoy it while it lasts, I am here to tell you the era of dominance by the USWNT is about to end, and that's a good thing. This development is good because the USWNT losing supremacy means women's soccer is growing globally. If the end goal is to have female players earn much more money, then the sport will...
