Rugby is back 👏🏻🏉 18 months of pent up hits and tackles were unleashed this morning 💪🏻💪🏻

Zizou's first touch 🔥

First competitive rugby with Cranleigh RFC in over 18 months this morning for Zach, and to say he enjoyed it is an understatement. Hits, offloads and steals like this order of the day London Irish

Last kick of the match against AFC Wimbledon for a 3-2 win. Even with verbals from the keeper😂, cold as ice 🥶⚽️💪🏻

Luka Modrić assist should be exhibited in a museum. That’s not football - that’s art. 👨🏼‍🎨🇭🇷 #UCL

He’s had his knock backs, his belief dipped, but his drive and hard work never diminished. Very happy young man signing his two year contract with Sutton Utd Academy today. ⚽️💪🏻

It’s 36 years since of one of my all-time favourite goals. Josimar striding. Socrates strutting. Muller twisting. Careca finishing. Brazil ‘86. What a team.

Biggest congratulations to Ireland, the players, coaching staff, the families, and the fans! 🇮🇪 What a magnificent performance! The first northern hemisphere team to win a series in New Zealand against the All blacks. Well done & enjoy the win ✊🏽

Just some filthy nutmegs to brighten up your day…

Cesc Fabregas, “All the coaches now talk about the pattern of play. I'm not against it at all... But special talent is dying because of it. From a very young age boys are being told what to do. Before there were positions but you could move more. These things are being lost.”🧠⚽️

Zidane’s first touch was an absolute world of art
