Classic YouTube
Víctor Aristizábal produces some world class showboating
Batshit crazy goalkeeper Rene Higuita earned a place in football history when he produced one of his famous “scorpion” kicks at Wembley. Higuita, however, isn’t the only Colombian to pull off this tricky move with success. Striker Víctor Aristizábal, once dubbed “the best player in the world without the ball”, displayed this thoroughly unnecessary (but extremely impressive) piece of skill during a 1993 international with Chile.

TRIUMPH AND DESPAIR
Or should that be Sky’s Fatzone…
This is how two passionate fans saw the key moments from Aston Villa’s remarkable 3-2 win at Everton. Get in there, indeed.
WARNING: If the sight of wobbly man flesh makes you nauseous, don’t watch the last bit.

REAL OR FAKE?
Brazilian shows off his double dribble
Kaka is one of the world’s best players with a ball at his feet. If you believe what you see in this video, he’s also a bit tasty with two at his feet.
Real or fake? We smell a viral ad.

wonder goals
The best hat-trick of goals we’ve seen this week. Watch, enjoy, vote for your favourite…
1. Maicon, Brazil vs Portugal
Intricate build-up capped with a thunderous finish. Reminiscent of Carlos Alberto’s famous goal at the 1970 World Cup - this is not as good, obviously, but it’s still a lovely strike.
More below:

SET-PIECE MADNESS
Proof that footballers really are stupid
We have all heard of heading for the corner flag to waste a bit of time, but this action (and I use the term loosely) from last night’s match between Swedish sides IFK Norrköping and GAIS (schoolboy snigger) takes the biscuit. With his team 0-1 down in the 89th minute, a Norrköping defender concedes a corner quite cheaply and probably had nightmares about his decision last night. What followed was SEVEN consecutive corners. GAIS had one man in the box and had no intention of crossing the ball. They just wanted to hit those over eager defenders who were encroaching on the corner and never seemed to learn their lesson. “Let’s charge at him faster. Then he definitely won’t kick the ball against us!”

ROBOT MOVES
C-Ron busts a move
The latest edition of the FIFA video game series hit the shelves last week and if this crazy video is anything to go by, it tests your dancing knowledge just as much as your football brain. Cristiano Ronaldo demonstrates a goal celebration worthy of a yellow card if ever there has been one. In real life a defender would probably have punched him before he moved on to the moonwalk!

Sanctimony
Liverpool captain throws stones from his glass house
What do we think, folks? Does Gerrard consistently flout the rules from the safety of his high horse, or is YouTube documentarian TopRedCafe being a little harsh? Comments below, please.
Spoiler bonus: John Terry is quite partial to a bit of diving too

Conspiracy Theorist
Football fan exposes C-Ron conspiracy, his own social ineptness
No one doubts that Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player of the season, but that hasn’t stopped a certain YouTuber from trying to discredit him. User ‘Unknowngenius3′ has analysed a recent Sky Sports trailer and discovered that the over-hyped commentary was actually taken from games that C-Ron wasn’t involved in. Unknowngenius3 also discovered that he has way too much spare time and has never had a girlfriend.
