Colombia arrives in Guadalajara to begin the World Cup. James is asked whether he believes Luis Díaz can win the Ballon d’Or.

James smiles and says: “Of course, why not. For me, right now he’s in the top 5 in the world. And if we have a good World Cup, if we reach the final, then of course he can win the Ballon d’Or.”

Imagine your idol speaking about you like that 👏❤️

🇮🇹 GIANLUCA SCAMACCA: “In Italy they always talked about what I did off the field: my tattoos, my style, my choices. As if soccer wasn’t enough. But I never let the outside noise define who I am. Sometimes they made me feel like I had to apologize for having personality.”

“And still, here I am, scoring, fighting, and proving myself. Because identity isn’t a mistake; it’s an advantage. And I don’t change my essence for anyone.”

🇬🇭😤💥ASAMOAH GYAN can comfortably share a table with the greatest footballers Ghana and Africa have ever produced. Yes!

With 51 goals for the Black Stars and a collection of records that may stand for generations, his place among the continent's elite is beyond debate. Yet, for many, his story is often reduced to one painful moment.
The penalty against Uruguay in the 2010 FIFA World Cup quarter final.
A penalty that would have sent Ghana
and Africa into a historic first World Cup semi final.

But football can be cruel. One heartbreaking moment has somehow overshadowed a career filled with extraordinary achievements.
Among the countless memories he gave Ghana, his extra time winner against the United States at the 2010 World Cup deserves far more recognition than it gets. With one powerful strike, he sent the Black Stars into the quarter finals and brought an entire continent to its feet.
If that goal had been scored by a player from one of football's traditional superpowers, it would probably be replayed every time the greatest World Cup moments are discussed.

Beyond that, Gyan became the first Ghanaian to score at a World Cup, the first African to score in three different World Cups, and remains Africa's all time leading World Cup goalscorer with six goals.
Some players leave behind trophies. Others leave behind moments.
Asamoah Gyan gave Ghana and Africa both joy and heartbreak, but above all, he gave them history. 🇬🇭❤️

Luxury quartet. 🔝🤩

🥺 Raúl Jiménez, in 𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 after his first goal ever at the World Cup… and dedicated to his 𝒅𝒂𝒅 he lost recently❤️‍🩹

South Africa is the second national team in FIFA World Cup history to have two players sent off in a single opening match.

🇨🇲 1990: Kana-Biyik and Massing (vs Argentina)
🇿🇦 2026: Sithole and Zwane (vs Mexico)

Back in 1990, Cameroon still managed to win that match 1–0.

🗣️ Matuidi: "Cristiano was an amazing professional, obsessed with work. One night, we returned at two in the morning after a Serie A match, we were exhausted but he went to Benatia and convinced him to go with him to the gym for a recovery workout.

I thought he had gone mad [laughs]. That's how Ronaldo was, he never stopped. That's the secret to his success, and that's why he is still able to make a difference even today."

🚨 Eberechi Eze Reveals Why Michael Olise Rarely Celebrates Goals:

Olise hardly celebrate whenever he scores. I’ve tried to force it on him many times, especially during training. Then he promised me he would celebrate the next time he scored.

He got a free-kick against Manchester United and scored. I ran straight to him to remind him of our deal, but he told me he only celebrates when he scores against big teams - just like what he did against Ireland.
