💰🇳🇱Ajax donated 1 euro to its foundation for every touch of the ball by an Under-11 player; his name is Syb Zeldenthuis.👏

Well he made 3,085 touches and on top of that they had to stop because the game was about to start..😂🌟

🥹 UFFFFF… WHAT A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE!

It’s not always about Lamine Yamal, Marc Cucurella, Pau Cubarsí, Nico Williams or the other big names.

The most emotional moment came before Celta Vigo’s match, when THE WHOLE OF BALAÍDOS ROSE TO ITS FEET to applaud and honour Borja Iglesias, a World Cup winner with Spain. ❤️

Some will say he only played ONE MINUTE. When he first joined up with the squad, some people didn’t even recognise him — he was even stopped from getting in.

But during the celebrations, we saw just how important Borja really was. Not just as a player — always training with a smile on his face, always giving his all — but as a person who was ALWAYS there to support his teammates.

A WORLD CHAMPION ON AND OFF THE PITCH. 🏆❤️

🐼 HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THE PANDA, BORJA IGLESIAS?!

🐐❤️ SADIO MANÉ JUST GETS IT!

Right after Cristiano Ronaldo scored the 978th goal of his career, Sadio Mané walked over to the Portuguese legend.

Mané reminded Cristiano that he hadn’t done the “Siuuu” yet. Ronaldo immediately put down his water bottle and delivered the most iconic celebration in football history.

But Mané’s face as Cristiano hit the Siuuu?

That’s one of the images of the year. 🥹

The look in his eyes said everything.

Seeing a legend like Sadio Mané show that level of admiration and respect for Cristiano Ronaldo is truly special. It genuinely brings a tear to your eye. ❤️

This is CR7’s final year.

So enjoy it. Every goal. Every celebration. Every last moment.

Because we won’t get these moments forever. 🐐💔

🚨🇦🇷 LIONEL MESSI ON EMILIANO MARTÍNEZ’S IMMINENT MOVE TO CHELSEA: 🧤💙

🗣️ Lionel Messi:

“Emi Martínez is the best goalkeeper I’ve ever played with. He’s incredible between the sticks, but what really sets him apart is his mentality, his confidence and his personality. When the pressure is at its highest, Emi never hides.

He’s saved us so many times. Without his performances in penalty shootouts, I don’t think we would’ve reached those Copa América finals or won the titles in 2021 and 2024. In those moments, Emi gives you a kind of confidence that simply can’t be taught.

At the 2022 World Cup, he showed the whole world exactly what he can do. His saves, his bravery and the way he stepped up in the biggest moments were extraordinary. Even in the final against France, when it felt like everything was falling apart, Emi kept us alive and gave us the chance to become world champions.

Before the penalty shootout, he came over to me and said:

“Don’t worry. I’m going to win this for us.”

That’s Emi. He believes before anyone else.

He’s the kind of goalkeeper who makes you feel safe. A leader, a fighter, and someone who thrives under pressure. When the biggest games come around, he wants to be the one standing there.

I have so much respect for him, and I’ll always be grateful for everything he’s done for Argentina.

Chelsea are getting an exceptional goalkeeper — and an even bigger personality. I wish Emi nothing but the best in London.

They’re going to love him.” ❤️🇦🇷🧤

🚨 BREAKING: Spanish legend Sergio Ramos was back at Real Madrid’s training ground in Valdebebas today. ⚪️

🇫🇷💥 KARIM BENZEMA: “VINÍCIUS MUST START PLAYING FOR MBAPPÉ.” 😭🔥

🗣️ Karim Benzema:

“Mbappé has been Real Madrid's best player for the past two seasons.

So Vinícius needs to understand that sometimes you have to play for your best player.

When I was at Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo was the best player in the team.

I played for him.

I created chances for him, supported him and made sure he had the freedom to do what he did best — score goals.

That's what great teammates do.

If Vinícius and Mbappé want to win everything, they need to understand their roles.

You can't have two players fighting to be the main character.

Sometimes, one has to sacrifice for the other.”

🔥 Benzema's message to Vinícius: “Play for Mbappé like I played for Cristiano.” 😭
