JUMP TO: Trabzonspor kit release is awesome | Paper makes Griezmann error
Remembering Bale’s best goals at Real Madrid
Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane may not want him anymore, but Gareth Bale has a history of scoring some spectacular goals for the club.
Bale, 30, looks set to be departing the club he joined for a then-world record fee of £85m back in 2013, so we thought it was a good time to look back on some of his finest efforts in the famous white shirt.

Trabzonspor kit release is awesome
While Europe’s top clubs battle to find the most innovative way to release their new kit on social media, they could learn a thing or two from Turkish side Trabzonspor.
In what we can only describe as a short film, Trabzonspor take us on an emotional journey as a young player’s mother sees how passionate he is about the club that she makes him a new jersey.
Coğrafyamızın geleneksel dokuma bezi “keşan” motiflerini formamıza gururla işledik! Çünkü bize ait olan ve bizden kıldığımız her zaman en güzelidir. 😊 Biliyoruz ki #yanyana durursak #bizbize yeteriz!
Gri formamız, yarın öğleden sonra TS Club’lar ve online mağazamızda! ❤💙 pic.twitter.com/NoKaiIfXQt

While the film has a slight “Eurovision” tinge to it, it’s certainly up there with the best. Well done to all involved.
Griezmann photo tricks local paper
Antoine Griezmann made the internet world laugh when he posted a photo on his Instagram of himself and new Barcelona teammate Samuel Umtiti in comparison with Stranger Things’ characters Dustin and Lucas.
But it seems as if the joke was TOO good as one Bengali newspaper thought it was real and posted the photo along with the caption: “Samuel Umtiti and Antoine Griezmann. The childhood friendship of two French footballers is still intact.”
A newspaper in Bangladesh used photos of Dustin and Lucas from Stranger Things as pictures of footballers Samuel Umtiti and Antoine Griezmann being friends since childhood. 😂😂🤣 pic.twitter.com/qI1p9y0Wg0
