Crystal Palace stunned Liverpool at Wembley, winning the 2025 FA Community Shield after a dramatic penalty shootout. The match ended 2-2 in normal time, with Hugo Ekitike and Jeremie Frimpong scoring for Liverpool, while Jean-Philippe Mateta and Ismaïla Sarr netted for Palace.
In the shootout, Dean Henderson emerged as the hero, making two crucial saves to secure Palace’s first-ever Community Shield title. It’s another historic moment for the Eagles, following their FA Cup triumph last season.
Manchester United has made a bold move this summer by adding a lethal trio to their attack for the 2025 season. With £200 million spent on Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo, the Red Devils are eyeing the Premier League title.
After struggling to score goals last season, United's attack needed a drastic upgrade, and these three players are set to bring the firepower the team has been missing. Sesko brings strength and aerial ability, Mbeumo offers pace and skill, while Cunha adds creativity and versatility.
The question now is: can this new attacking trio turn United into title contenders? With a revamped offensive line and fresh optimism, it’s clear that United is preparing for a serious push for the Premier League crown in 2025.
In the summer of 2014, during the group stage of the FIFA World Cup in Brazil, Robin van Persie scored one of the most unforgettable goals in football history. It came against defending champions Spain — a flying header that left fans and goalkeepers stunned.
Van Persie timed his run to perfection and launched himself into the air like a superhero, meeting Daley Blind’s long ball with a diving header that floated over Iker Casillas and into the net. The moment instantly became iconic.
They called him The Flying Dutchman, and the goal symbolized the beginning of Spain’s collapse and the Netherlands' powerful run in the tournament.
As an animator and football lover, I couldn’t resist reimagining this legendary moment in cartoon form — exaggerated, fun, and full of character. My version of Van Persie isn’t just diving… he’s flying through the sky like a plane, passing over stunned fans before scoring a cartoonishly epic goal.
History, when mixed with humor and art, becomes alive again.
