Adorable puppy invades Argentine match between Belgrano and Quilmes
It’s not the first time we’ve seen a pitch invader of the canine variety, but this is definitely one of the most adorable ones.
A timid looking black lab wandered on to the pitch during a game between Argentine sides Belgrano and Quilmes, and quickly managed to get a good belly rub from Quilmes midfielder Sebastián Romero.
Eventually Quilmes’ Jonathan Zacaría carried the dog off the pitch rather like an adoring father might carry a baby. In case it was getting a bit too soppy for all concerned, Joel Carli barked at his teammate in a manly manner as he carried the dog away

Santos’ Leandro Damiao pulls his own shirt in shameful ploy to win free kick
Just when you think cheating footballers couldn’t possibly lower the bar any further when it comes to playacting, up steps one and does exactly that.
During Criciuma 3-0 win over Santos, former Tottenham target Leandro Damiao takes to pulling his own shirt in the faint hope of winning a free kick. Thankfully the officials didn’t fall for the shameful antics.
Leandro Damiao is said to be busy at work, plotting his next cunning plan to simultaneously pull one over the officials and continue to lower the bar of shame.
Lazy unpatriotic Sterling confesses to being tired – England fans are angry
We’ve all been there at some point. You know the feeling, when you’re a little bit tired and you’d rather just sit this one out. Monday mornings for example. You can usually get away with pulling a sicky or fobbing off that critical deadline for another 24 hours. Your free from the judgement of a Nation.
Not so for Raheem Stirling. Before England’s game against Estonia on the weekend, the teenage Liverpool winger confessed -presumably in confidence- to Roy Hodgson that he was tired.
After England’s 1-0 win in Tallinn, Roy Hodgson spilled the beans over Sterling’s absence from the starting XI saying to BBC Radio 5 Live “Raheem said, ‘I’m feeling tired, I’d rather sit this one out.’
Which, as you can imagine, was all it took to whip twitter into a frenzy as the critics started to pile on Sterling, questioning his desire, or is some cases his patriotism. Eventually, Sterling responded to the critics saying “Excuse me for being human.”
Presumably, next time, in the name of patriotism, for the sake of the three lions on one’s chest and the troops abroad, it’s best to just lie and put in a performance you know to be inferior to the standard normally expected. Yeah, thats the moral in the story right there.
