afootballreport:

Welcome Back, Robbie

“You could see it on my face; I had a huge smile of enjoyment. Okay, I’m back, this is normal and very supportive. I keep saying the word: normal, normal, but it was. Once I got on and I saw the support, I just zoned in…It was good to be back and I’m excited to move on from here…I’ve kind of been on this huge journey trying to figure out my life. And now I’m back here. I think kind of where I’m supposed to be.”

On a night where the weight of history seemed overwhelming, the most remarkable part ended up being how unremarkable the entire moment seemed. Months after coming out of the closet and retiring from professional football, Robbie Rogers made his debut for the Los Angeles Galaxy in the 77th minute of Sunday’s match against the Seattle Sounders, becoming the United States’ first openly gay, male professional athlete. Robbie jogged onto the pitch to a chorus of support from the announcing crew and the Los Angeles crowd, who both recognized the significance of the moment, but just as quickly, the focus turned back to the game. It all seemed so normal.

That’s definitely a sign of progress, but we’ve still got a ways to go. Here’s to a world in which athletes like Robbie can be just that, athletes. [Posted by Maxi. GIFs via]

Kyriakos PAPADOPOULOS - Goals, Tackles, Passes - HD

To complete Liverpool’s defense for a few seasons to come, Liverpool are looking to sign Kyriakos Papadopoulos from Shalke 04 along with all the best clubs in Europe. This lad is an absolute beast for club and country, and any club that signs him will have one of the best young defenders in the world.

The Best of Kolo Toure - Welcome to Liverpool - excellent Youtube compilation of the man & football legend ready to be Liverpool’s new defender. To be honest, LFC couldn’t ask for a better replacement for Carragher. Toure has a wealth of experience only surpassed by his professionalism. YNWA

Some would say Liverpool won the game in that moment. Certainly, it was the greatest game ever played.

South Korean high school ultras have the best choreography, HANDS DOWN. Yes, it’s sped up, but only to make it look like an actual giant LCD screen, that’s how impressive they are.

And it’s all done without cards! Just the shirts on their backs.

“We usually bring our one year old - but the Seattle game is no place for the weak ones.”

- Timbers Army, Mother of the Year

If you don’t believe soccer is coming in America - just look at the Timbers Army in Portland, Oregon. This is what football is throughout the rest of the world, it’s about time Americans embraced the fever.
